[Audio] Fear Of Tigers’ ‘The Legend Of Ian Usher’

 

Fear Of Tigers

More tracks incoming from Mr. Fear Of Tigers. here’s his latest, The Legend Of Ian Usher, and as you can expect; it provides some massive big room sounds. Complex and melodic, we hope this isn’t the last we’ve heard from one of the UK’s unsung musical heroes.

Remember when Electro-House tunes were big euphoric tunes layered thick with 80s nostalgia. Well, The Legend Of Ian Usher brings those huge sounds back. Corse Chip Tune sounds shudder and flow alongside lush retro synths and an utterly compelling Disco bassline. Chopped up smooth vocal samples give way to jazzy sax hooks. Wait until you heard the breakdown! Infectious stuff!

[Audio] Pat Lok’s ‘Move Slow’

 

pat-lok

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.

[Download] Touch Sensitive’s ‘Slowments’

 

Touch Sensitive

Australian producer Touch Sensitive A.K.A. Van She guitarist Michael Di Francesco, still riding high on the success of Pizza Guy is back with some new music for you. It’s a nice chilled contrast to his other material and holds some nice retro surprises. Enjoy Slowments.

Slowments is, on the surface, a smooth LA style jam. A poolside groove that within it holds an ethereal, magic quality and an abundance of 80s style sampling. Background sampled scratches and orchestral hits pad out the laid back funk of the track. Not surprisingly then, you’ll find the basis of the track is Art Of Noise’s Moments In Love, twisted in blissful Disco ways.

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

 

Plastic Plates

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] Du Tonc cover Bruce Springsteen’s ‘I’m On Fire’

 

du-tonc_thumb

One of the nice things about two talents like MiGHty mOUse and Matt Van Schie working together is that you get a wealth of influences and interests brought to the table. The backgrounds of the Du Tonc members set themselves up for a nice ecclectic mix of tunes that can effortlessly span Nu-Disco and Indie-Electro encompassing the best of both.

As displayed here with their latest offering, a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s I’m On Fire. Wielding an easy groove, the twosome deliver a slo-mo Disco churner that was, fittingly, given birth when the song cam on the radio is they drove through Arizona. With chirpy synths and a warm bassline complimenting Matt’s gentle vocal, the track ends up sounding rather cinematic and conjuring up images of the road trip that inspired it.

[Download] Chordashian’s ‘Questions’

 

chordashian

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.

[Audio] Tensnake reMixes Duke Dumont’s ‘I Got U’

 

duke-dumont

In exchange for the remix of Tensnake’s Love Sublime by London based Disco breakout star Duke Dumont, the German Housemeister has in turn’s performed reMix duties on Dumont’s forthcoming new single I Got U. The track features Jax Jones on vocals and has been making some serious waves since it premièred in December. Tensnake gives it a serious House workout.

We can imagine this one being big over the summer, over festival season. It’s got that big, hypnotic, crowd pleasing House sound. Bass heavy and relentless whilst still keeping the original’s groove. A robotic funk jam, riding on a monster synth bass and a Chicago beat. Just the kind of tune to loose yourself to in a field somewhere.

Duke Dumont’s I Got U is released 16th March.
