Little Boots’ ‘Shake’ reMixes

littleboots

I gotta’ say, I do like all this Little Boots being back business. Just knowing that Vicky is out there somewhere promoting an ElectroPop single is a calming influence on me, takes me back to those early, exciting days of electronic rumors.

A couple of new reMixes of her latest (comeback?) single ‘Shake’ have dropped this week. Azari & III, not strikingly, go deep with the track. Really deep. Their reMix is a growling, swelling, slightly techy jam that shoes off some nice raw 808 drum sounds and reminds me a little of early Bleep House. In their hands ‘Shake’ goes from being DancePop gold to a hypnotic  mantra. Crazy P head straight for the disco with their take on the track, taking a little Indie along with them. their version is a laidback, but groovy summer vibe.

So, by now you’re all familiar with Johan Agebjörn ‘Casablanca Nights’, on of the best albums of the year that saw Johan teaming up with a plethora of talent throughout the record, noticeably fellow Swede Le Prix. The two of the have decided that future collaboration between the two will fall under the moniker Plexi Grace.

The first released from Plexi Grace will be a selection of reMixes of the first track we heard from ‘Casablanca Nights’ featuring this team-up, the Lake Heartbeat featuring ‘Watch The World Go By’ the reMix package will be released on Fektive Records and contain work from Jam El Mar (the Jam from Jam & Spoon) who turns the track into a lush big room tune. Agebjörn will be returning the favour by reMixing Jam & Spoon’s ‘Find Me’, to be released in 2012.

Cyclist reMixes Gigamesh

gigamesh2

Vancouver based producer Cyclist has just dropped his contribution to the forthcoming collection of reMixes of Gigamesh’s recent self-titled EP.

Cyclist’s take on ‘People’, is a beautiful cacophony of squelchy, slappy, Moogy bass and hammered piano riffs. Cyclist’s solid funk drives the track along like a bass heavy juggernaut. i don’t know why he;s called Cyclist, he should name himself Funk Truck Driver!

♫ Gigamesh (Feat. Nicole Godiva) – People (Cyclist reMix)

The Gigamesh rEMix EP is out 6th December and features work from Moullinex, Fare Soldi, Alexander Holland and Goldroom.

The Opiates reMixed by Drop Out Orchestra

The Opiates

What you have here is the voice of Miss Billie Ray Martin, here in her The Opiates guise with producer Robert Solheim, and the slick groove of Swedish Disco duo Drop Out Orchestra. If that’s not enough to have you hitting the play button then there’s something very wrong with you.

Those  wicked Disco licks and cosmic synths are the perfect backing to completely redefine Billie’s vocals into a smooth, late night jam. Billie’s soulful, slightly husky, delivery leans itself effortlessly to Drop Out’s laid back vibe. Funking into the night!

♫ The Opiates – Reality TV (Drop Out Orchestra  Dub)

The Opiates’ ‘Hollywood under The Knife’ album is out now, this track is taken from a forthcoming reMix album.

Knightlife’s new 12”

Knightlife

Aussie Nu-Disco DJ Knightlife  drops his first 12” for Cutters Records, Cut Copy’s own label, today.

The Cut Copy tour DJ’s ‘Serves You Right’ is a Funk fuelled slice of synthetic Nu-Disco. All Moog Funk basslines, exotic percussion and electro toms this track is the logical progression from his last two 12”s as Knightlife does what he’s known for, straight-up, no letting-up, dancefloor boogie.

SaiR reMixes Cavaliers Of Fun

cavaliers-of-fun1

Our favourite Portuguese producer SaiR has taken on the lead track from Cavaliers Of Fun recent ‘Sharing Space Secrets’ EP, ‘Passengers’, for his latest mix.

Keeping it smooth with a night time vibe, SaiR works Ricco’s vocals into a laid back slice of synthesizer Funk featuring the very best in head nodding basslines and quirky little lead riffs.  Ruben from SaiR certainly knows how to twist a synth line to his funky will and makes the track so slick and chilled that you can just let is wash over you like a wave of groove.
