Yeah, you read that correctly. Boston heavy hitters J Paul Getto put their flavour on the widely popular track from talented French producer Alec Carlsson , Paris Fried Chicken . Originally a free download, Paris Fried Chicken will now get an official release on Fogbank Recordings with J Paul Getto's remix. Definitely an amazing compliment to the original, it showcases their style with the focus on bass lines and punchy beats while retaining a lot of Alec's own elements in a blend of talents too good to [...]
Here's a short update on everyone's favourite Clancy . He's made a couple of remixes lately. One of French electro prodigy Alec Carlsson (with a very Swedish sounding name), and one of Sweden's most hipster mainstream singers (or is it the other way around?), Robyn. I'm not using the M-word to have a go at her, on the contrary, there are few people who make so authentic music, and still appeal to such a wide audience, and that's both impressive and well deserved. Anyway, here are the tracks: [...]
From Chicago, our boys Second City Recordings are getting ready to drop their first set of releases. House music y'all, can't fucking beat it, and this is some of the best coming out right now. Check out the previews below and if you are really feeling it, help them out with their kickstarter campaign. Second City Rhythm - Tiger Motel by Second City Recordings [...]
I think this is a pretty good look for Chicago. Fresh off of their Second City Rhythm tour, Lee Dunn ( Ghosts of Venice ) and Garrett Shrigley ( Adulture ) have put the final touches on their new House label; Second City Recordings . With a roster that spans from Chicago to France, SCR are setting themselves up to be the one-stop-shop for classically inspired House music. Sounds like a wonderful venture, yeah? Well, in order for this dynasty to take off, they need some help. In this day and age, it seems that [...]
Well what do we have here? Alec Carlsson is back, with another massive record. Whether deep, disco, french, or any other kind of house the young French producer gets his hands on, the result is always top shelf. Consistent and masterfully produced jams that always do the genres justice. Today we'll have a look at his newest extended play, the Royal Lives EP which was released this past Monday via sexy French label On The Fruit Records . The original is a great french house tune with [...]
This week Alec Carlsson drops his new single for On The Fruit Records . 'Royal Lives' is a sweeping Nu-Disco floorfiller cock full of Disco strings and massive builds. The reMix package includes work from Geisha Twins, The Phantom's Revenge and The Alpha Snail. The highlight, though, is Clancy 's retro powerhouse mix. From the moment the digital bass kicks in this track is a treat., as it works it's body shaking way around layers of sparkling arpeggios and just when your getting into the track this really sweet subtly lead jumps in after [...]
More 802s disco shenanigans from Clancy as he re-edits Alex Carlsson's 'Royal Lives' - it's full of doughy keys, gleaming synths and one almighty big kick. They don't make 'em like this anymore. Clancy is clearly using his time machine to great effect. Love it. Out now via On The Fruit Records. Alec Carlsson - Royal Lives (Clancy Re-Edit) by Clancymusic
Earlier this month we posted Alec Carlsson's track Paris Fried Chicken , a dance floor monster that had me (and my neighbours) up for days. If you haven't heard the track, go check it out now, or this interview won't do justice to his talent. Straight out of Paris, France, Alec is only 16 years old but produces like a veteran. With other emerging young talent like Madeon, I really felt the need to know more about Alec, his music, his influences, and his lifestyle. Ten years ago I was an emo teen who [...]
Coming right off of a very relaxing, very summery Independence Day weekend here in Seattle, and there's plenty of new music to go around. First up, there's this Plastic Plates remix of Mark Ronson's "Record Collection", one of the truly standout tracks from his most recent album. I think remix is utterly jaw dropping...easily one of my favorites so far this year. Next up is a track from Monarchy for you to check out, right from their forthcoming album. Finally, there's this disgustingly good summer house track from Alec Carlsson --the guy featured in today's [...]
Mmm, this, this right here is some fantastic french house. The kind that you need at the peak of the night, the kind that rattles your rib cage and gets those palms high in the air. Alec Carlsson , this is the first time we've met, and I'm more than glad it happened. Out of France, Alec has an astonishing amount of amazing music on his profile. Personally I'm blown away by the fact that he's 15, how old am I again? Ahh I'd rather not try to figure it. [...]
More feel good music. This time from French producer Alec Carlsson with 'Paris Fried Chicken' a groove injected House tune. Just like fried chicken, this track has got us hooked. Alec Carlsson - Paris Fried Chicken (FREE - Download links in comments) by Alec Carlsson

Shiny Disco Club was only just started back in June this year by Nicolas Masson and Paul Perrault. Focussing primarily on disco/house the first release 'Millennium Disco Vol. 12 is a free download. Woohoo! It features exclusive tracks by Louis La Roche , Rockets , and a couple of my favourites like The Phantoms Revenge and Vanguard . Since it's free anyway I decided to share [...]
Shiny Disco Club is a new electronic music label founded in June 2010 by Nicolas Masson & Paul Perrault. Yesterday, they released their very first Disco house compilation completely free. Now this is amazing in itself, but when it's full of brand spanking new tracks from the likes of Louis La Roche , Moonchild , Rockets etc, it's a whole different ball game. While your waiting for them all to download, you can preview the tracks on SoundCloud. Now I don't know about you, but today is Christmas for me all over again. Enjoy (of course [...]
I am currently re-discovering myself towards music, given my epiphany last week regarding what exactly was the style that made me happy to share, when DJ'ing. Nevertheless, it's important to stress that I've been hearing nu-disco for ages, just never realized how much I enjoyed it. Lame stories aside, Shiny Disco Club , a recent bud on Soundcloud, just shared a compilation of 28 nu-disco/disco/house tunes, all downloadable (yes, they're just giving away stuff!). It's really good, though some songs are a little too housy for me. You won't regret giving it a listen, that's for sure. [...]
Alec Carlsson was born in 1995. That makes him 15 years old / the Justin Bieber of the dance world. When we were 15 we were listening to our Roxette 'Tourism' cassette on repeat to the point that we wore out the 'Never Is A Long Time' section and it snapped *sheds ancient tears down wrinkly old face*. According to Alec's website: "His father is a DJ & producer. When he was 9 years old, his father's music love touched him*. He first learnt to mix with his father's advices, then graduated to producing. [...]
