[Audio] Reflex’s new single

We’ve been eagerly waiting for this one for quite a while now, it’s the new single from France’s finest ElectroPop duo Reflex. Out next week on Continental Records, the single, titled Together, is the prefect material for these two to make a return to releasing original tunes. it’s big, bombastic and fun and has a hook that’ll be stuck in your head all day.

Together, drops just in time for the warmer months, and that’s a good job too as there is a touch of the Balearic about it. This is all about big piano riffs and rumbling Disco bass, all wrapped up in a surprisingly euphoric package that’s ripe for some festival season anthem kudos. Loaded with groove laden House undertones that permeate every corner of the track, from the irritate beats to Lud’s chanting, call-to-arms vocals, Together is just what’s needed on this summers dancefloors. reMixes on the single come from Boys Get Hurt, Pat Lok and Ryan Riot. Pat brings one his wonderful deep, retro House tunes to the table. If the original is set for open air dancing, then the Pat Lok reMix is destined for warehouses. Abrasive House riffs and Chicago organ hooks relentlessly power the track on featuring all manner of modulated vocals. Ryan Riot gives the track a little 80s flavour with his SynthWave version of the track. Mixing in a hint of 90s Trance, Riot bring his typical fair for rolling synthesizer love. You won’t be able to shake that arpeggiated bassline. A pretty stunning release from Reflex, we’re hoping there is an album in the works.

[Video] SevdahBABY & Djixx’s new single

This is Ti Mi Se Tako Sviđaš (Spiritus), the new single from Serbia’s greatest export SevdahBABY & Djixx. Borrowing a little from 80s Yugoslav Pop Funkers Jakarta’s single Spiritus, Ti Mi Se Tako Sviđaš (Spiritus) sees SevdahBABY & Djixx in serious Disco mode loading the track with electro toms, twisted Moog bass and some slick talkbox action.

The video is suitably 80s, both in set up and lighting. Looking like a moving 80s VHS thriller cover meets Disco freakout, the video fits the track perfectly.

SevdahBABY & Djixx Vs. Jakarta’s Ti Mi Se Tako Sviđaš (Spiritus) is out now, pick it up here.

[Audio] Kavinsky reMixed by A-Trak

New is starting to come in about SynthWave pioneer Kavinsky’s new single, the first following Protovision and the excellent OutRun album. The subject of the single will be the album track Odd Look, which was the highlight of OutRun’s new material. Amongst the single reMixes will be this cut-up job from A-Trak.

Bringing a bit of an Electro Dancehall flavour to the track and turns the tune chord progression into a grinding chainsaw riff. The track is equal parts dancefloor igniting and sinister as hell. With brutal bass and cinematic leads, it’s the drums that really compel in this track. It’s a fine mix that leaves us with a taste to hear the rest. The EP is out soon, along with Kavinsky’s Dead Cruiser mobile game.

[Audio] The Other Tribe’s ‘Your Kisses’

This is Your Kisses, a track that will be available exclusively with pre-orders of Bristol’s finest Indie-Electro rabble rousers The Other Tribe’s forthcoming new single My Girl. A soulful House track, this could have been a single in it’s own right, but who can turn down a freebie?

Nicely mixing up The Other Tribes’ infectious tribal EelctroPop with a slick deep House groove, Your Kisses is a perfect late night jam. There’s even a hint of a Torpical vibe in there too, which gives it a nice summery feel. Not that anything The Other Tribe turn their attention to doesn’t turn out summery as hell. If you get the chance to catch these guys live during the warmer months, you’d be a fool not to.

[Audio] Sharooz reMixes David AKZ

If you like raw House, late 80s bleepy grooves and strobing warehouse vibes then you’ve come to the right place. Here’s the latest reMix from London based dirty Disco peddler Sharooz. This one is a reMix of Once Upon A Time In The Projects, from autoKratz man David AKZ.

This is a tune that proper takes us back. Those clean drum machine beats, the gritty hooks, the floor moving basslines, the claps and whistles, this one’s got it all. Slowly building in the way all good House tracks should, when the reMix kicks in it goes full throttle with all the funk of a Summer Of Love anthem. Now, where are my white gloves?

[MP3] Shelby Grey reMixes K.R.B.

Here we have something new and something huge from Spanish producer Shelby Grey. It;s his take on early 90s classic The Misterious Song by K.R.B.. Prepare for a big rhythmic epic of a tune, lovingly updated by Grey with respect to the original.

This one all about big rolling beats, with a real B-Boy Electro feel, coupled with hypnotic, psychedelic hooks and spacious pads. Grey takes choice bits of the original and works them into a multi-layered, undulating, four minutes that has you hooked for every second.

[Audio] Clancy reMixes Ellie Goulding

The UK’s best kept secret, Clancy, has done it again. He’s just dropped his reMix of Ellie Goulding’s cover of Alt-J’s Tessellate. The track getting an official release soon, and you should definitely snap it up as Rich one again proves why he’s one of the most exciting producers around right now.

This one’s actually got a little Disco flavour to Clancy’s House, provided by a big squelchy bassline that adds a little swing to the Jackin’ beat. Clancy’s has seriously got a knack for atmospheric and infectious House, his tunes are always swirling clouds of warm tones and hypnotic hooks. Using just the right amount of the vocal, Clancy build a little dancefloor tension throughout the track, to keep thing interesting and deliver proper intoxicating deep grooves.

[Audio] French Horn Rebellion’s new single

New York DiscoPop duo French Horn Rebellion really are going from strength to strength this year. After a pretty long period of quiet, so far they have hit us with Poster Girl, Girls and Friday Nights, all badass tracks, all in the space of a few months. Well, they’re not letting up yet with this, the release of their new single Dancing Out, featuring Jody Watley & Young Empires.

Dancing Out picks up where their previous singles left off. One again it’s all about good-time and no-worries. Injecting a little more of a retro SynthWave flavour into their funky Pop tunes, French Hoorn Rebellion bring the nostalgia along with their carefree dancefloor sound. Watley and Young Empires’ call-and-response vocals are cute, the beats are strong and the synths bounce along in a pleasingly 80s way. Another top tune from French Horn Rebellion.
