Goin’ Old School: Chic, EMF & Break Machine

Goin’ Old School isn’t a trip down music memory lane, it’s a mugging in the dark alleyway of nostalgia:

The funky as hell Hangin’ (falsely titled Hangin’ Out here) from the legendary Chic in 1982.

In 1989 EMF mashed up Pop, Indie, House, ElectroPop and Hip Hop with their breakthrough Unbelievable. Derry was an inspiration to keyboard players everywhere.

Almost completely copying their first hit Street Dance, Here’s Break Machine’s hilarious follow up, Break Dance Party, from 1984.

Pet Shop Boys’ ‘Winner’ video

This is the video for Pet Shop Boys’ new single Winner. An epic SynthPop tune that is, completely coincidentally, about winning stuff, just in time for the Olympics.

Timing cynicism aside, this is the kind of thing only Pet Shop Boys can get away with. And Roller Derby would make a much better Olympic sport than running fast or throwing stuff. All inclusive too!

Winner is released on 6thAugust.

Goldroom ‘Fifteen’ video

Goldroom’s summer anthem Fifteen now has a nice visual element in the form of this new official video.

Directed by Jacob Gibson, the video is very Goldroom, in the sense that it’s very Dreamwave, almost a spiritual successor to Josh’s NightWaves Sweet Carrie video, slightly more grown up, slightly more adventures, no less full of wonder.

Goldroom’s EP is out now.
