[Audio] Cassian’s ‘The Ninth’

 

cassian

The king of the Sydney scene, Cassian, is back with a new release. The 8 Voices EP is out this week and we’ve already has a taste of what to expect from it. Our favourite track so far is the gloriously energetic and sun-kissed The Ninth. Pure summer dance grooves.

Leading with a deep and soulful bassline over a solid House beat, The Ninth builds itself in waves of lush synths and atmospheric vocal snatches. Skippy purcussion and as nod to Deep House keep the track dancefloor interesting while your head can be occupied by the onslaught of rich retro synths  in the tunes second half. Euphoric as hell.

Cassian’s 8 Voices EP is released 13th December.

[Audio] Fire Flowerz’s ‘Two Coffees’

 

fire-flowerz

Two Coffees is the new single from Italian high-octane Disco duo Fire Flowerz. Following their Overload EP from this summer, Two Coffees cracks on with the loud, ballsy, but ultimately funky-as-hell trajectory these guys are on, with the aim being squarely centred on the dancefloor.

This is what Fire Flowerz do best, full-on disco tunes filled to the top with big, abrasive snyth used in a funky way. Pounding, pounding beats, gritty chainsaw synths, heavily modulated collection of samples all designed to make the Disco bigger. And they’ve accomplished that mission as Two Coffees is truly Disco at it’s absolute largest.

[Download] Back Back Forward Punch’s ‘Emergency Bow Tie’ (+ MiGHty mOUse reMix)

 

Back Back Forward Punch

Australian ElectroPop duo Back Back Forward Punch are about ready for the big time. They’ve been generating a buzz for a few months now and their new single will only gain them more positive attention. Emergency Bow Tie, is their latest release, their third this year, and come equipped with a host of amazing reMixes including one from London’s Cosmic Disco king, MiGHty mOUse.

Emergency Bow Tie is a sumptuous four minutes of vocoder heavy Pop. As soon as it’s rubbery bassline blesses and VL-Tone purcussion hits your speakers it’s a fun ride. Delivering robo vox in the verses and a rousing female sung chorus, set against a sea of synth music that’s just retro enough to be hip, and just modern enough to sound slick, Emergency Bow Tie washes you with it’s warming electronic mood and it’s sense of wit. It’s top quality futuristic Pop that becomes a slinky grooved Disco beat in MiGHty mOUse’s safe hands. Mixing up some of his trademark galactic sounds with a heavy, heavy, dancefloor groove, the mOUse teases every ounce of Funk out of the track and turns in a robust crate secret weapon. The single, which is a free download, also boasts mixes from Pigeon, and Sun City. It’s definitely worth your attention.

[Audio] SaiR’s ‘World’

 

SaiR

It’s December, so that means it’s time for our yearly SaiR tune! The Portuguese Dreamwave Disco dude has come to warm up our winters with some seriously hot retro Funk. Six and a half minutes of it too! So sit back, and sink into this comfortable lush Disco groove.

With a air of Jazz-Funk and heaps of thick synth sounds, World delivers more laid back Disco vibes than you can handle. Resting on an immensely funky bassline and some lilting electric piano, this tune just keeps on dishing out the chilled moods whist keeping the funk on a dancefloor friendly level. More excellent work from SaiR here. SaiR should have an album on the way soon.

[Audio] Tesla Boy & Tyson’s ‘Broken Doll’ reMixed by Pioneerball

 

tesla boy

Unsurprisingly, the next single from Russian ElectroPoppers Tesla Boy’s amazing current album, The Universe Made Of Darkness, will is Broken Doll. This tune, featuring some vocal work from Tyson, is prime single material. Frequent Tesla Boy reMixers Pioneerball once again contribute to the single reMix package with this thick slice of Boogie.

This one is all about that heavy, heavy, synth Fun bassline. Popping and bubbling away in the background, the irresistible bass serves as a groovy core for Pioneerball’s arsenal of retro synth shimmers. Keeping things mid-paced and solid, Pioneerball serves up a rich vintage DiscoPop powerhouse that perfectly compliments Tesla Boy’s Anton’s vocals. The single also includes a Dub version by Tesla Boy themselves and a reMix of Invisible from Sportloto.

[Download] Keljet reMixes Goldroom’s ‘Embrace’

 

goldroom2

Ooo cheeky! You may recall we had all but promised that we had closed the door on featuring more reMixes of Goldroom’s blissful Embrace. Then Dutch Disco duo Keljet come along with this bad boy and despite out better judgement we can’t help but feature it. Keljet are on such a roll right now, storming track after track and really making a name for themselves. A well deserved name too, and a reputation this reMix does nothing to quash.

Keljet bring the hypnotic House vibes to the track this time around. it;s a well established science fact these days that Embrace has got an awesome vocal, and in the right hand it can be an amazing thing. Keljet’s hands are up to the job as they weave the vocal in and out of a slightly Tropical, pumping, tune that’s not exactly laid back, but not exactly upbeat either, just a nice groovy middle ground. Totally intoxicating.

[Audio] Duke Dumont’s ‘I Got You’

 

duke-dumont

I Got You is to be the next single from one of this years breakout stars, Duke Dumont. The Duke rolled up to the Annie Mac show over the weekend to début the track and although it’s not in any way summer, this one will put a little holiday groove in your heart. Featuring vocals from Jax Jones with a little help from Whitney Houston, I Got You is due out next year.

We say it’s summery, because it’s filled to brimming point with Tropical sounds, both the purcussion and the synths instil the track with Island vibes. The combination of vocals (live and sample) would seem on paper to be strange bedfellows, but it all works out swimmingly. Throw in a deep, deep, grumbling bassline and some hard hitting piano stabs and you’ve got all the trappings of  a future floorfilling classic.

[Audio] Tensnake, Nile Rodgers and Fiora’s ‘Love Sublime’

 

tensnake

Ahead of the forthcoming release of German House superstar Tensnake’s début album Glow, set for the first quarter of next year. It’s an album that will be boasting a host of collaborators such as Stuart Price, Jamie Lidell, Jeremy Glenn and MNEK alongside frequent vocaliser Fiora and the one and only Mr. Nile Rodgers. It’s Fiora and Rodgers who appear on the albums first single, Love Sublime. Check it out.

Love Sublime is slick as hell. On the surface it appears to be another slice of throwback Disco, but it;s a lot more complex than that. There’s hints of Italo, of 80s Pop and Soul. If anything this feels more Top Of The Pops than 70s Mirrorball. Bouncy synth basslines and multi layered vocals with a breathy delay give it a very mid-80s feel (think: Imagination) with shuffling hi-hats. It’s an excellent choice for a single, but if you can;t wait that long Tensnake has dropped another new tune, which is available as a free download, in the form of the deeper and Housier strobe light epic, No Relief.
