Goin’ Old School: The Human League, Coldcut & Yazz & Prince And The Revolution

Goin’ Old School isn’t a trip down music memory lane, it’s a mugging in the dark alleyway of nostalgia:

It’ll always come back to The Human League, that’s a promise. Here’s ‘(Keep Feeling) Fascination’ from 1983’s ‘Fascination!’ EP.

From 1988 it’s Coldcut’s first collaboration with singer Yazz in ‘Doctorin’ The House’. Horns!

Remember when Prince wasn’t batshit insane? Stuff like this happened! Here’s Prince And The Revolution with 1984’s ‘Let’s Go Crazy’.

Polydor & ATTAR!

polydor

“Hi, I’m the Belgian label-boss of Midnight Munchies and also produce under the name Polydor, I’m going to be sued very very soon but until that happens I’m going to release an awesome EP of weird and deep House music and include a storming reMix from ATTAR!. I should have taken notes from him, two ‘T’s and a ‘!’ and no-one’s suing him!”

‘The Future Past’ is Polydor’s team up with singer Gustaph for a bit of abrasive ElectroPop action with massive House undertones and laser synth awesomeness, but ATTAR! takes the deep House weirdness one notch further. He brings a moody Moroder groove to the track too, putting his Disco background to good use while littering it with Acid and Progressive references. When the hypnotic vocals chant “Something’s coming, are you ready?” amongst ATTAR!’s BladeRunner city streets beats, you really feel like the future is crashing down on you. Either that or you’re lost in music on a strobe lit dancefloor. Same thing really.

Zimmer’s ‘Horizontal Disco’ reMixes

zimmer1

This weekend saw the release of synthetic Disco maestro Zimmer’s ‘Horizontal Disco’ reMix EP. The ‘Horizontal Disco’ EP was one of many Discotexas highlights of 2011 and has, suitably, been given of top quality reMix package.

The highlight of the EP, for us, comes from American cosmic Boogie expert Moon Boots. His version of ‘Bay Bridge’ combines Moon Boots usual spaced-out Tropical flavour with a robotic bass and some bright, shining synths for a more electronic sound that we’re used to from him, but from it’s galactic groove to it’s vintage riffs, it’s a killer track. Elsewhere on the EP we get Broke One dropping a deep deep deep ‘90’s House vibe with rounded bass and a nice swing. Gomma’s Moullinex bring his playful Mediterranean Disco sound to the table with his version of ‘Looking At You’ complete with squelchy little synth riffs and a nostalgia inducing electric piano hook. Xinobi brings us back to the ‘90’s House-fest with his hand-in-the-air track that could have easily seen play at The Haçienda in the circa 1991. Also on board is the Lou Teti reMix we featured last week. These days we don;t expect anything less than the best from Discotexas, but it’s comforting to know they haven’t disappointed yet.

Russ Chimes reMixes Per Byhring

Per Byhring

In the past couple of years we’ve come to know Russ Chimes as a man who could do no wrong, responsible for some of the most exciting, flawless reMixes and tunes in recent times. We’re big fans. Recent tracks from the Russ have seen his style evolving, but displaying no less finesse. After a period of quite he[‘s back with a new reMix. Can he keep up his winning streak?

The track in question is his version of Oslo artist Per Byhring’s ‘Ettertid’ and Mr. Chimes nails is. <sarcasm>There’s a surprise</sarcasm>.  Russ whips up a compellingly funky slice of House that contains nods to both his classic Nu-Disco work and his more recent Rave fuelled output. Slick, complex percussion and a deep deep grove provide the prefect, infectious backing for some melodic use of the vocal and playful leads to do their euphoric work.

♫ Per Byhring – Ettertid (Russ Chimes reMix)

The track is available to download for free here, for the amazingly cheap price of one email address. Bargain!

‘Ettertid’ is the title track from Per Byhring’s album, out now.

Mr. Pteez reMixes Keet

keet

One of our favourite Russian synth heads, Mr. Pteez, is back with a brand new reMix. This time the sometime B-Boy takes on fellow Russian House producer Keet’s ‘Russian Alien’.

The original was a sweeping, bouncy slice of big room House, so Mr. Pteez adds a touch of his own Electro Boogie to the mix. Laying down a shuffling Disco beat, rich retro synths and a funking bassline. This is a tune that constantly builds, slowly and subtly adding layers and elements until the end of the track is so full and big it’s guaranteed to get you moving. Once again Mr. Pteez has shown himself to be one to watch out for. Exciting stuff coming.

Human Life’s ‘Don’t Fade Away’ reMix

humanlife

Just a day after the release of their new single on Vulture Music, California ElectroPoppers Human Life have dropped a new remix of the track.

Human Life shrug off the catchy Pop of the original here, in favour of some deep House vibes. The pitched down vocals actually do impart a mysterious, soulful, quality to the performance which suits the moody ‘90’s House sound well. taking the track in a completely different direction to the Shook or Kartell reMixes, the ‘E-Returns’ reMix is pure late night dancefloor stuff, for those early hours when you can totally loose yourself.
