[Audio] Pat Lok’s ‘Move Slow’

Hot on the heels if his collaboration with Bear Mountain, Same Hearts, Canadian producer Pat Lok is already on to the next thing with this brand new tune. Move Slow is already getting spun by the likes of Moon Boots, Anna Lunoe, Don Rimini, The Phantom’s Revenge, Cassian and Justin Faust just to name a few. Check out why.

Featuring vocals from fellow Canadian alo, Move Slow is an ecclectic House track with a slight Disco groove to ease you into it. alo’s Jazzy vocals lend the track a raw, live feel to it, almost as if Lok was dipping in and out of the sweeping synths and percussive keys in real time. It’s a tune that really draws you in to it, it’s not really like anything else around right now, and that’s testament to Pat’s skills. Intelligent House music, a real treat.

[Audio] Chelas ‘Zero’ reMixed by Backstroke

One of our favourite Australian artists, Chela, is gearing up for the release of her new single, Zero. The track originally appeared on her Zero Mixtape EP last year but will soon be presented accompanied by an impressive reMix packed featuring storming tracks from Clancy and Keljet. Due to Kitsuné Music’s esoteric PR decisions we can’t actually play you any of the forthcoming release, and probably never will, but you can check this reMix from American producer Backstroke, it’s not actually on the single, but it’s quite nice in it’s own right.

Backstoke folds in a whole bunch of influences into his mix, there’s a bit of Future R&B, a bit of LA Funk, a bit of Dreamwave, and a bit of Tropical Disco all held together with some booming beats. Chela’s vocals flow over the track like water, giving you an indication of how they play out in the other reMixes (spoiler alert: awesomely!) and should get your mouth (ears?) watering for the single to drop.

Chela’s ‘Zero’ is released 10th March.

[Audio] Tensnake, Jacques Lu Cont & Jamie Lidell’s ‘Feel Of Love’

It’s another new track from German Housemeister Tensnake’s forthoming début album, Glow. This time he’s wading into another collaboration, here with the legendary Jacques Lu Cont and Mr. Jamie Lidell. Following the Nile Rodgers and Fiora featuring Love Sublime is a hard act to follow; but Feel Of Love pulls it off with style.

A nice bridge between Tensnake’s House groove and Jacques more Les Rythmes Digitales 80s sound, the track kicks off with lunch retro keys and a springy bassline mixing it up with some solid House beats. The track soon descends into vintage Pop awesomeness with Lidell giving it his best soulful Prince-vibes. Many headliner collaborations don;t always end up being as exciting as the sum of their parts would suggest, but this one really doesn’t. Exciting, driving, pure Pop. Unexpected but most welcome.

[Audio] ATTAR! reMixes Coma Coast’s ‘1989’

Belgian drum machine master ATTAR!’s latest reMix is released this week. As part of the reMix package for Coma Coast 1989/The Ritual double A-side, Renaud Deru injects a little strobe-light vibe into the ElectroPop release. Get ready for a hypnotic club stormer.

Going deep into the roots of House, ATTAR! serves up a little Chicago and a little Detroit in this warehouse collision. the machine beauty of early Techno meets the hedonistic groove of early House, replete with pulsating Bleep House basslines and doomy vocals. Taking the tunes title literally, this reMix perfectly conjures an underground late 80s mood, when the beats were raw and the bass heavy.

[Download] Russ Chimes’ ‘Motions’

“So I’ve been sitting on a bunch of new music for a bit…” says one of our favourite producers Russ Chimes. We can’t help but feel that’s downright selfish of him. Is he sitting on the cure of cancer too? Anyway, the man is at least attempting to make it up to us by stating to deploy this backlog floorfillers. Today he hits the ground running with this first free download, Motions.

Motions is a high-octane belter of a tune. Beat and bassline heavy, the tune constantly builds on it’s frantic pace with layers and layers of purcussion. There two duelling basslines in place, a kind of post-EBM arpeggio and a rumbling warehouse shaker, that work together to really power the track along; leaving the rest of the track peppered with slightly shuffling hats, mantra vocal snatches and warm pads. And intoxicating tune from the British master.

[Audio] Plastic Plates & Sam Sparro’s ‘Stay In Love’

Earlier this month Felix Bloxsom A.K.A. the awesome Plastic Plates released his new single. Mixing up his luscious synthetic Disco with a little ElectroPop flair from good friend Sam Sparro, Stay In Love really is a slice of Pop excellence that, given the right exposure, could see Plastic Plates getting the recognition he heartily deserves, even charting.

Sparro’s voice glides like silk over this Italo inspired tune. The synths are warm and rich, particularly the bounce heave bassline, and the beats suitably House-y. This is probably the most Poppy Plastic Plates has gone to date, but that doesn’t mean this tune isn’t perfectly fit for the dancefloor. Like a chameleon, it could adapt itself beautifully to either radio play or peak time action.

[Download] Chordashian’s ‘Questions’

Brooklyn Disco duo Chordashian are kicking off their 2014 with a new track and a new collaboration. This time the pair team up with fellow New york residents, sister ElectroPop double act Frances Rose, these classically trained girls add an air of beauty to this stomping tune. The track was written over the course of a year, which is quite a while really.

The duo call the track ‘”a break from our usual up-tempo releases”, but the track is actually pretty up-tempo anyway. Pumping Italo basslines and driving drums meet Frances Rose’s lilting vocal. Not quite as Disco as we are used to from these two, but a floorfiller nonetheless. this time the ElectroPop power shines through.
