[Download] Empire Of The Sun’s ‘Wandering Star’ reMixes by Final DJs

Germany’s première SynthWave outfit Final DJs have turned in another one of their monster, euphoric, slices of synthesizer gold. This time of target of the Sci-Fi workout is the Southern Hemisphere’s most mystical ElectroPop duo, Empire Of the Sun. Final DJs have got to grips with their track, Wandering Star, and turned it into a cinematic synth masterpiece.

There is some absolutely gorgeous sounds in this reMix. At it’s heart the tune is a deft mix of SynthWave and Nu-Disco, pretty standard dancefloor fare, but coupled with Final DJs’ flair for vintage synths and soaring solos the tune is elevated to a higher place. A hands-in-the-air moment for the Dreamwave crowd, this tune should be soundtracking peak time at retro synth nights across the globe.

[Audio] Empire Of the Sun’s ‘DNA’ reMixed by Alex Metric

The next single from Australian ElectroPop characters Empire Of the Sun’s second album, Ice On The Dune, is DNA. The big-synthed anthem is due out later this month and comes stuff full of huge reMix from the likes of Calvin Harris, Brodinski and Alex Metric. The latter of whom has uploaded his version to his SoundCloud page so we can all grab a tasty advance listen.

The original’s massive ElectroPop is somewhat tempered, and reined in by Metric, instead he concentrates on creating a smooth vibe. It’s an almost Dreamwave mood this reMix has got, that’s counterpointed with a compelling dancefloor beat, making it both a call-to-dance and something enriching for your emotions. This one should definitely be in everyone crate, it’s a proper weapon.

Empire Of The Sun’s DNA is released 24th September.

[Audio] Gold Fields reMix Empire Of the Sun’s ‘Alive’

Fresh from their sterling work on Chela’s Romanticise, Australian Indie-Electro outfit Gold Fields have turned their attention to Empire Of the Sun’s recent comeback single Alive, to give an already euphoric tune a bouncy, sunkissed, House going over.

Ready for lazy summer days and afternoons by the Pool, Gold Fields version of the tune adds lush synths and big filter sweeps to the mix. Playing around with the vocals a little, this mix slinks along in a laid back, synth bliss, fashion until the mid-way point when some seriously slick jazzy muted trumpet gets added to the mix, playing out the rest of the track in style and giving it a Balearic flavour.

Beaumont

We really liked Beaumont’s reMix of Ladyhawke that we posted here so when an email full of the man’s tunes landed in the electronic rumors Inbox we were more than interested.

Beaumont has a cool sound; a Valerie-esq retro Electro flavour with an infusion of 8-bit video game noises. What more could you ask for?

We’ve got three of his tracks here, all of them top quality Nu-Disco, with sharp FM lead lines, fat analog basses and that slight 80’s soundtrack feel that always works so well.

Beaumont’s use of bit crunched beeps and blips definitely set him apart from the pack.

Beaumont also dropped his reMix of Empire Of The Sun’s ‘We Are The People’, a chord driven retro epic.

Empire Of The Sun Vs. The Golden Filter

EmpiteOfTheSun3

Empire Of The Sun are often reMixed, some good, some mediocre. When you have a name like The Golden Filter who have repeatedly dropped top quality Disco gems you know you’re in for one of the good ones.

The Golden Filter bring a little of their ‘Sold Gold’ magic to the table. Their dreamy Electro Disco seems a perfect fit with Empire Of The Sun’s track.

The week in Bangers: 12:04:09

The week in Bangers: While electronic rumors isn’t strictly an Electro-House blog, we do cover a lot of Electro-House that crosses over in to our realm. So many good club tunes and reMixes surface each week we can’t (and wouldn’t) cover them all, so this is a round up of some of the best from the week that we didn’t have time to dedicate individual posts to…

Graffiti3

What’s in the bag this week? Well, we start off with Empire Of The Sun’s almighty ‘Walking On A Dream’ as reMixed by The Bloody Sisters and Database & Bonde Do Role’s ‘Miami’, the MMMathias version. The much hyped Polly Scattergood gets a working over by New York Disco heroes The Golden Filter and the clash of Tiga and Mr. Oizo is exactly as you’d expect!. Noisy SynthPopster Avian X is morphed into an Electro Banger by Kolt 13 and we have the dream pairing of FischerSpooner and D.I.M.. New Canadian retro synth act FM Attack build things up for us to be left with the almighty ‘We Are You Friends’ by Justice Vs. Simian as reMixed by The Disco Villains.

Burns: Fire In The Disko

burns1

‘Huge’ is the best way to describe ‘Disko’, the début single from London producer Burns.

Not without reason did Annie Mac name him as ‘one to watch in 2009’, Burns music is obviously influenced by Ed Banger Records and French House but pulls it in a UK party direction. ‘Disko’ is a Disco killer!

♫ Burns – Disko (Extended Version) (zShare) (MediaFire)

‘Disko’ is out soon on Breastfed. Until then check out the reMixes Burns has done for Empire Of The Sun and Late Of The Pier. The man has a knack for basslines!
