Fear Of Tigers – The Guestlist 02/09/2011 – The Guestlist returns today after a week off. A decidedly busy Fear Of Tigers has taken the time to drop half an hour of some of the hugest tracks around. The pod this week also includes FoT’s amazing reMix of Ronika’s ‘Only Only’ in it’s first full airing.

Neo Disco Machine hails from the Russian Federation and has just dropped his first EP of disco flavoured SynthWave. For free!
The ‘Break The Ice’ EP contains four top quality slices of vintage synth fuelled electronic dancefloor sauce. For me the two standout tracks are ‘I’ve been Looking For You’, an Electro Disco tracks driven by a relentless arpeggio which adds in a little Disco and some nice vocal manipulation, and the title track, a dark Electro track which provides the backing for a space-age synth lead. Neo Disco Machine has compiled just the right amounts of Disco and Dreamwave in his music, which is a little more diverse than your standard SynthWave stuff and give him the edge to stand out from the crowd.

Leeds based Nu-Disco producer Ghosts Of Venice does a storming job on his new reMix of Now In Stereo’s ‘Away.
In full on beach party mode Ghosts Of Venice keeps the track rocking the whole way though. A simple but solid bassline drives the whole track to dancefloor ecstasy while the cut-up vocals samples, that blended into the original, here are a Disco air-raid siren warning you of impending Funk.

‘Away’ is out soon on Satan’s Circus.

We’ve got some serious bass heavy cosmic Disco here in the form of French label La Belle’s latest release. Ilya Santana’s ‘Infamous Lovers’.
A true intergalactic journey, Ilya’s single is a synthesizer workout to please even the most jaded knob twiddler. The playful electronics ride over a solid backing of deep Disco bass and proggy guitar resulting in a 70’s Sci-Fi Disco epic that could easily ride alongside a space montage in Carl Sagan’s Cosmos. The mixture of a Disco groove and Jarre or Vangelis-esque synths is quite intoxicating.

‘Infamous Lovers’ is released 12th September with reMixes from Kasper Bjørke and Telonius.

Sam Padrul début single ‘All I Do’ has been making quite a few blog waves this week, we’ve been a bit busy, so if you haven’t checked it yet, here it is.
It’s a nice slice of Disco ElectroPop with a soulful edge. Crammed to bursting point with Funk bass and slick Disco guitar licks, but it’s those Moog-esque lead lines that have us hooked. With Blue Satellite’s hand in production this is one Funk filled jam. The weather had taken a turn for the shitty worldwide it seems, well throw this track on and close your eyes, it’s summer again.

Seconds out…round, er, what is it?, three?
Anyway, here’s out round up of some of the freshest entries in Fear Of Tigers’ ‘The Adventures Of Pippi Longstrump’ reMix competition. They’re coming in this and fast. Greek producer Kristine completely nails the 80’s teen movie vibe with her reMix. Heavy on electro toms and a wicked 80’s Pop guitar lick, Kristine has done something a little different here and stands out because of it. John Sawtooth goes for a real old school SynthPop sound with some amazing lead lines running throughout that really add a whole new level to the track. Lastly Melbourne’s Fighting Bison comes out swinging with a sweet ElectroPop mix with a little Disco flavour the leads into a earbending, soaring cosmic solo.

This September Disco/Funk/ElectroPop wizard Keenhouse released a brand new EP for Sunlinxx Records.
Keenhouse’s trademark had always been raw talent when his fingers meet the keys. A musician before a producer his ear for melody and riffs shines through in the four track ‘The Summer Society’ EP. The four tracks give us a nice variety too. From the jazzed-up Nu-Disco of the title track and laid back beach Funk of ‘Piu Electric’ to the Acid Tropical Cosmic Disco (yes!) of ‘Lost Constellation’ and the chilled ‘Homestill’ that eases you out of the EP with sweet tunes. Keenhouse releases are always welcome, sometimes it’s just nice to have someone playing keyboards at you.

Sydney Dreamwave producer Jordan F is holed up on some sun kissed beach somewhere ‘hard at work’ on his début artist album.
In the meantime he’s put together a free EP for Rosso Corsa Records featuring re-mastered version of ‘Definitely Miami’ and ‘Outrun’, which we’ve featured a while back, and a new track, ‘Cupido’. As you probably know by now, Mr. F makes some of the finest Synthwave and Nu-Disco coming out of down under and these three tracks are all prefect examples of his power drums and sparkling 80’s-esque melodies. Grab some headphones, sit back, relax and let Jordan F take to to summers of the past.
You can pick up Jordan’s ‘Definitely Miami’ EP for free here.
