Publicist’s new EP

Out this week is the new EP from Publicist on Discotexas.

Publicist is Sebastian Thomson, sometime drummer for Trans AM, who like to mix things up live by sequencing, drumming and vocoding in the middle of the dancefloor. The tunes on ‘Proffessional Show Business Pt.1′ are a unique brand of deep, hypnotic synth Disco. Owing as much to late 80’s and early 90’s House as they do to Nu-Disco, there’s even a little Cabaret Voltaire in there! The two tracks on the EP are also re-editied by Disco stars Moullinex and Zimmer, that’s right, not reMixed but re-edited. Both track play with the originals for more of a dancefloor vibe.

♫ Publicist – Come to My Senses (Moullinex Edit)

♫ Publicist – Make Ends Meet (Zimmer Edit)

‘Proffessional Show Business Pt.1′ is out now.

Cassian reMixes PNAU’s new single

‘Solid Ground’ is the next single from PNAU’s forthcoming album ‘Soft Universe’ and gets the reMix treatment from Housemaister Cassian.

Cassian lay on the Sci-Fi Disco thick with this reMix, full of laser gun electro toms and raging Moog basslines. Elevating the vocal track to levels of pure funk euphoria Cassian had dropped a killer this time!

Cosmonaut Grechko’s new EP

Cosmonaut Grechko’s new EP, ‘Alaska 2100’ is out this week and is a pretty stunning electronic masterpiece.

Grechko hits the ground running with track one, ‘Singin’’, with Joywave, it’s the prefect meeting of Dreamwave and Indie-Electro, like a spaced-out-Disco Passion Pit. It’s catchy but still maintains a summery mellow groove. ‘All I Hear’ is up next with some help from She’s The Queen (I’m writing about She’s The Queen on a day other than Thursday, feels weird) that tasks Emily’s vocals out of the normal DancePop environment and slides them into some laid back, almost Chillwave, reverb washed Disco. As with ‘Singin’’, ‘All I hear’ is incredibly listenable, Grechko’s organ riffs intertwining with the big retro synths to create an intricate, yet effortlessly cool, jam. ‘Coloreye’ and the title track are both more tradition Disco fare, both mellow and upbeat, that show Grechko still has the skills to flat out rock the dancefloor and they lead into a selection of reMixes including these two by Electronic Rumors faves Show Your Shoe and Blue Satellite. Show Your Shoe takes on ‘All I Hear’ and proves why he’s the man to watch when it comes to smooth Electro-Funk cuts with some crazy Moog action while Blue Satellite turns ‘Singin’ into a massive upbeat DiscoPop track.

The ‘Alaska 2100’ EP shows a real maturing of Cosmonaut Grechko, musically. An evolution of his music that will surely place him at the forefront of Indie-Electro and Nu-Disco.

Broke One’s ‘Go Go Go’ reMixes from Russ Chimes & Treasure Fingers

The big tunes for your weekend start right here!

Last week Broke One released his new EP, ‘Stop Making Sense’, which features some storming reMixes of the lead track ‘Go Go Go’. Russ Chimes (oh my god, did you hear the preview of his new EP?) drops this reMix that mashed up equal amounts of Funk and Rave. I’ve never heard Chimes sounding so Ravey but the natural groove running through the man’s veins make for the most Disco sounding Rave ever and fitting those Rave sounds and riffs into a solid groove is a stroke of genius. This is guaranteed to get you moving. Treasure Fingers’s mix treats us to a healthy does of Old School House with abrasive 909 beats tempered by smooth Disco strings and a return of the ‘It Takes Two’ break and some classic House samples.

Moonlight Matters reMixes Alex Winston

The latest reMix from Moonlight Matters is this version of Alex Winston’s new single ‘Sister Wife’.

Bringing some deep funkin’ analog bass to the table Moonlight Matters mix injects the track with some cool Disco ElectroPop first heard on Aeroplanes’ April mixtape. I’m really digging how Alex’s unique vocals, with the kind of otherworldliness found on The Knife records, sit over the raw synth work here. Love the steel drums too!

Jungle Fiction reMix Two Door Cinema Club

ReMixes of slightly old songs don’t always grab you but this mix of Two Door Cinema Club’s ‘Something Good Can Work’ by Icelandic Nu-Disco crew Jungle Fiction made me sit up and take notice.

Big, big, synths and a whole lot of groove dominate this mix. Building on the sound of their début EP the trio of young producers keep on expertly riding the line between pedal-to-the-metal Electro-House and smooth melodic Dreamwave with the kind of skill that easily ranks them up there with the Dangers and Kavinsky’s of the world.
