New track and reMix EP from Funerals

Funerals

Funerals have just, finally, released their album of reMixes from ‘Marae’, the album includes a brand new tune too.

Alongside reMixes of ‘Marae’ and ‘Out There’ tracks from the likes of Star Eyes, Ritualz, ∆aimon and Goteki sits ‘To The End’, a brand new track which one again elevates Funerals way above their Minimal-Synth or Witch-House contemporaries. Saying that though, I’ve never really though of Funerals as either Witch-House or Minimal-Synth, they are far too rooted in ‘90’s House to be minimal synth and far to interesting (and actually talented) to be Witch-House. No, what you get with ‘To The End’ is a dark, evolving, slice of Edgy, and ElectroPoppy,  Deep House that owes to more to the pioneers of Acid and the early Warp Records sound that it does to anyone with symbols in their band name, and is infinitely better for it. OK, so it is pretty moody and atmospheric, in an enigmatic way, but what sets Funerals apart for the pack is they really understand rhythm, especially synthesized rhythm, how to program it and how to produce it and that just sees them breaking mew ground between the graveyard and the dancefloor.

Buffetlibre’s new tunes

Buffetlibre

The Buffetlibre boys stopped by the electronic rumors Inbox to showcase a couple of their new tunes.

Featuring the vocal talents of Δngelo, ‘Far From Heaven’ is three and a half minutes of slick Nu-Disco inspired ElectroPop that compliments Δngelo’s soulful vocals and Disco bassline with a layer of heavy ‘90’s House piano. It’s as dancefloor as it is Poppy and works well in either arena. It’s companion, ‘Bali Honeymoon’ is more of a straight-up Balearic affair. Both tracks come from the duo’s forthcoming new album ‘Songs For Elaine’ that features guest spots from the likes of Micah P Hinson, Peter Von Poehl, Spinto Band & Plushgun.

Tyson reMixed by The Magician

tyson

More reMixes incoming of left-field ElectroPop fella Tyson’s ‘After You’re Gone’, this time in the form of a nice ‘90’s House mix with The Magician at the controls.

Relentless piano riffs are becoming The Magician’s ‘thing’ and his style lends it’s self well Tyson’s track, adding an extra layer of drama. Injecting a sense of urgency and a little tension into the song highlights Tyson’s vocal performance better than even the original.

Mustang reMixes Arnaud Rebotini

Arnaud Rebotini

What a tune! Mustang have really outdone themselves this time, after a string of awesome tracks and reMixes the Belgian duo keep continuing to impress.

Black Strobe main man Arnaud Rebotini is Mustang’s latest subject as they turn his ‘ Another Time, Another Place’ into a vocoder leaden analog Disco track with loads of early ‘90’s House influences. What we’ve got here is a solid beat, loads of mucking about with synths, and a strong piano line to lift the mood. What more could you ask for?

New track from Freak You

freak you

Something brand new now in the form of the new track from On The Fruit Records head honcho Freak You.

‘Never Landed’ is billed as ‘some fresh air’, and once you get into listening to the track that’s exactly what it is. It’s a light and airy Deep House tune that is full of atmosphere. Reminiscent of mid ‘90’s Orbital but with a Disco groove. The way the woody bass and reverby piano play off against each other in this tune is really nice. Freak You has produced a track suited to sunrises and comedowns, and just pure listening pleasure.

Mjolnir reMixed by Camara

Mjolnir

Fresh out of  being part of yesterday’s amazing Shiny Disco Club release, Millennium Disco Volume 2, Indonesian ElectroPop crew Mjolnir have dropped us Brazilian producer Camara’s reMix of ‘Just A Boy’.

We featured ‘Just A Boy’ in our first ever post on Mjolnir way back when and we loved it’s ‘80’s epicness. Camara bring a deep House groove to the table with a nice ‘90’s piano line to break-up the rolling bassline. The reMix works well with the retro vocals and gives a whole new perspective on the track.

Meridian reMix Monarchy

monarchy

As more and more reMixes of Monarchy and Britt Love new single ‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ it becomes harder to stand out from the pack. Let’s see if this official mix from Meridian does the job.

It’s actually a pretty straight-up dance mix, which is a good thing as there hasn’t been one yet. It drags the song into the big room for some peak of the night euphoric gold. There’s no surprises here, nothing new, but it has a job to do and does it well. Big sounds, filter sweeps, emotional piano, all present and working together like an oiled dancefloor machine.

♫ Monarchy (Feat. Britt Love) – You Don’t Want To Dance With Me (Meridian reMix)

‘You Don’t Want To Dance With Me’ originally comes from the ‘Around The Sun’ album, out now, the single comes out this month.
