Penguin Prison's Chris Glover continues to place top electronic tracks at the top of remix-lovers playlists for quite some time now and we've noticed. DJs love remixing his already pop-and-lock jams, fans can't get enough of his almost constant products and we want to help shed some extra light on his work. In appreciation of this club-worthy artist, we've compiled the best remixes out there. For us, this list has some dance hall worthy tracks, but it also slows it down. Half come from remixes of Penguin Prison and half are by him, and they span back to [...]
gary numan - "are friends electric (renegade soundwave '91 mix)" (download) (via Redboy )
The Guillemots track 'I Don't Feel Amazing' has been remixed by Friends Electric. Guillemots aren't a New Wave band, so this is definitely an interesting take on the original. Listen to and download it below.
For me music is very much based on first impression. I want something to grab me by the scruff of the neck and make me want to listen to it, and in all honesty the new Friends Electric track 'Puzzle Pieces' really fails to do that. Its not as if its a bad song at all, if anything its very easy to... Read more..
A mixture of an insane amount of commitments and annoyingly unreliable internet issues has resulted in me being MIA for longer than intended but I am now here to rectify the situation. As such, I'm dedicating this post to Friends Electric a band I've shown a lot of love to since I started writing this blog and whose music is starting to become as synonymous with Made In Chelsea (yes I do watch it - don't judge me for this!) as The Wombats was with The Inbetweeners. Their new single Puzzle Pieces was released this week [...]
Vinte e poucos anos nas costas, um nome que define a banda e um estilo que agrada qualquer pessoa. Estas são as características principais do Friends Electric , o quarteto de Gales que tem a música como instrumento de trabalho e inspiração desde os 14 anos de idade. Ainda sem um álbum completo em uma gravadora de verdade, os caras já lançaram alguns singles como amostra do seu estilo: electropop espacial com a intenção de fazer as pessoas dançarem. Comparando estilos, os britânicos chegam a soar como um Monarchy em seus primórdios. [...]

The kids in Friends Electric (Welsh awesome dance pop foursome) are back with another soaring and near-perfect cut called "Puzzle Pieces", out October 24, and we just can't seem to find ourselves listening to anything else. You'll probably feel the same way after a half-dozen spins, seeing as how that's going to happen once you stop reading our words and eating theirs. (mp3) Friends Electric - Puzzle Pieces Godspeed!
That’s it, summers over. If you live in the top part of the northern hemisphere prepare for 6 or 7 months of grim weather, seasonal affective disorder and nothing to look forward to except having no money after Christmas. Of course something you can look forward to is opening your email browser or in box each day to get the latest post on Breaking More Waves. We’re beginning to ramp things up again following a quiet few weeks in late August and September whilst [...]
The UK electro-pop quartet Friends Electric is releasing their single “Puzzle Pieces” on October 24th. The jam has been officially leaked and deserves a spin on your iTunes, Spotify or WinAmp (holler at me if you still use WinAmp). The song wastes no time getting right into the think of the hook. With some sweet stick work on the drums and a bass line that gives the rest of the jam space but still drives it forward. The breakdown at about the three minute mark helps build the song further, cementing the frenetic synth in your head. [...]

Friends Electric release "Puzzle Pieces" October 24th The danger with releasing brilliant singles is that you set the bar high for what comes next. That's a hurdle Friends Electric clear with ease on "Puzzle Pieces": a synth-pop powerhouse with a massive sonic rush of a chorus, the song justifies the buzz about the four-piece, and confirms them as electro's hottest tip. So far this summer, Friends Electric have headlined the BBC Introducing Stage at Radio 1's Big Weekend, played to packed dancing tents at the Isle [...]

The NBA draft went down last night and something unexpected happened. It appears one of two things is happening. Either the talent here in the US is shrinking or the international leagues are getting better. I could hardly pronounce four out of the first ten picks. I'm ecstatic that the Nuggets made a move in the right direction. They dumped the indecisive Felton and picked up old Coach Karl favorite Andre Miller. A more passive point-guard to Ty Lawson's move quick, shoot quick style of play. However, the Nuggets not only got their first pick (Morehead [...]
I make no secret of how good I think Friends Electric are, so it seems only appropriate that I present you with their latest single Fireworks . Due for release on June 20th it's probably their best track so far. It's incredibly catchy and virtually impossible to resist dancing to while the Microburst Remix, below, adds a wealth of nuances that rather genuinely sound like fireworks! The track is addictive, instantly effective and lyrically, incredibly sweet (which I know is girly but it's true!). It's also provides further proof of just why they have had so much [...]
Excellent pop act Friends Electric are scheduled for the Isle Of Wight Festival this weekend, kicking off from there on a few dates around the British Isles, wrapping up on July 13 supporting Blondie at Somerset House in London. The super young kids have followed this news with a new remix of their energetic single... Read More
Camden has always been a place that prides itself on contrast. And so it was I came to see Friends Electric play at Proud Galleries, only to witness the bizarre choice of supporting 'band': XO Man. Whatever you might think of grime/hip-hop the incredibly named set closer would have enamoured them to you either way; 'Bass Made Your Pussy Wet'. Friends Electric however, were not nearly so awkwardly received by the Camdenites in attendance. In fact they were a snug fit, all groove-laden melodic electro-pop and choreographed lighting. Friend Electric are proof if [...]
