Moonbootica’s video for their Funkin’ new single ‘Battle No. 1’ is an Old School flashback supreme.
There a bit of everything in there. Wild Style, Breakin’, old Bambaata footage, Rock Steady Crew. It’s uprockin’ and spraycanin’ goodness. The songs pretty tight too, a banger with groove. Could have done without the “whoop”s though.

More reMixes of Monarchy’s forthcoming single, ‘Maybe I’m Crazy’ incoming, this time Azari & III’s, which I’ve been waiting for.
Azari & III have an amazing ability to make deep, dark, 90’s House influenced tunes that are also totally catchy and Poppy. On the reMix here, Azari & III have produced a full-on House monster reminiscent of sweaty, early 90’s, warehouse parties. Deep, electronic and slightly Acidic, this mix just makes me more eager to hear their forthcoming album on Modular.
♫ Monarchy – Maybe I’m Crazy (Azari & III reMix)
‘Maybe I’m Crazy’ is Monarchy’s next single, with reMixes from Michael Woods and Diskjokke, as well. It’s taken from the amazing album ‘Around The Sun’, out now.

Here we have a couple of reMixes of Retro/Grade anthemic DancePop current single ‘Mindfighter’.
The single was released yesterday. It’s a ElectroPop Sci-Fi call-to-arms that gets a deep House workout from Maxxi Soundsystem who’s ‘Warehouse Mix’ has a proper late 80’s/early 90’s free-party vibe. The low square wave bassline and atmospheric electronic creating that hypnotic groove that used to flood abandoned buildings full of revellers. Dollface Devereaux seriously impresses with their massive ElectroPop/House mix. Everything is big in this track. Big digital bass, big House piano riff, big drum rolls, big synth abuse, all fitting with the big nature of the song.
♫ Retro/Grade – Mindfighter (Dollface reMix)
♫ Retro/Grade – Mindfighter (Maxxi Soundsystem Warehouse Mix)
‘Mindfighter’ is the first of three singles to be released this year that all together will make up their début album ‘Motion’.

Today sees the release of the long awaited new EP from Nu-Disco producer extraordinaire Justin Faust.
Dropping on Discotexas, the ‘Girl Talk’ EP is paced with three tracks and another three reMixes from some of the biggest names in the game. The whole thing is top quality, slickly produced, Electro Disco goodness. The title track is a solid groover with enough funk in its low end and sparkle in it’s top to keep any party jumping. Alongside that monster is ‘High Hopes’, a beautiful synthesizer journey, more mid-tempo and dreamlike than Faust’s usual output but a welcome interlude in the middle in a storing EP. It’s chilled retro sound working as the heart of the EP. Amongst others reMixes come from Bit Funk, who’s filtered Disco blazes through ‘Girl Talk’ and takes it straight to the danceflooor. Doesn’t even buy it a drink first!. Australia’s awesome G.L.O.V.E.S. brings a nice mix-up between Disco and 90’s House which teases you until it kicks back in, after the piano breakdown, with full on synth Funk.

If you want some pure electronic burbling the Acid Washed is always a sure bet.
Check their new reMix of Koudlam ‘I See you All’, it layers arpeggio upon arpeggio whist always retaining that, almost quirky, sense of music humour you often get with Acid Washed tracks. Fun and a little left-field but at the same time a storming dancefloor tune. It’ll sit alongside reMixes from Yuksek, Mickey Moonlight and Arnaud Rebotini on the forthcoming single.

‘I See you All’ is out soon.

A man who’s always been a bit ahead of the game when it comes to retro synths dance music, Keenhouse, provides one of the reMixes for Christian Strobe’s début single.
Christian Strobe is the brand new solo-project of Christian Schnall, fifty percent of Disco Trash Music and Spruce, who’s ‘Midnight Call’ is a deep Housey ElectroPop track that Keenhouse gives a summery piano led sheen. Bringing a slightly Balearic vibe to his work Keenhouse combines the sunrise beats with a massive 90’s House riff and Nu-Disco production that uplifts the vocals into a euphoric anthem that seems to keep adding layer upon layer of emotional sounds.

♫ Christian Strobe – Midnight Call (Radio Edit)
‘Midnight Call’ is out now on 12” and drops on the 22nd July digitally.
