One of our favourite Russian ElectroPop acts, The Tapeaters , have just unleashed a brand new single, not only new, but also free! Are you ready for summery retro Pop? 'Waiting For A Sign' is pure '80's Pop, of the smooth variety. The kind quaffed haired young dudes in flecked suit jackets would perform on Top Of The Pops around the middle of the decade. It's a fun, catchy tune with enough groove to get you moving on the dancefloor and enough crooned vocals to be radio friendly. The 'Luncay Mix' keeps the '80's feel but chunks [...]

Last couple of weeks were a bit exhausting for me. I simply had not the time to truly digest the latest releases. Being said, this weekend i just want to chillout. I'd like to make a short trip with you, through the gates of the universe, to present some hidden gems that will make your mind fly away. This is no favourite list or ' best of ' compilation. All I want is to share with you some tracks that I like to define as " stress decompressors ". Perfect if you are into this kind of cosmic and space [...]

In addition to the already posted Silenx reMix, Russian ElectroPop duo have dropped a bunch of new reMixes of their track 'Don't You Dare' The Tapeaters . First up fellow Russians Sohight deliver a funky '80's inspired version with a nice Moog Funk bass and big retro sounds that have The Tapeaters sounding a little like Tesla Boy. There's some amazing electronic music coming out of Russia right now and Sohight are another name to watch. Spanish producer Nelue 's take on the track starts off as a slick exercise in Disco [...]

The Tapeaters - Don't You Dare (Phalanxes of fingers Remix) by The Tapeaters

El año pasado, sobre estas fechas, el dúo ruso de The Tapeaters regalaba el tema 'Don't You Dare (Single Mix)', un precioso tema de electro-pop/synth-pop que también saben realizar este dúo, una bella melodía acompañada por la dulce voz cantante, y hace casi 2 meses el trío portugués de Outfilters nos regalaba un remix de ese tema, dándole más ritmo y potencia al tema, y ahora The Tapeaters publican las remezclas que han realizado sobre ese tema el madrileño de Nelue (con [...]

Russian duo The Tapeaters get remixed by nu-synth maestro Silenx. Nice tune. Shame about the vocal. Silenx's usual stuff is strongly synth based, though usually in a more 70s Vangelis vein than 80s Moroder vein. This remix partially discards that approach in favour of a sleazy nu-disco synth feel. This works really well with enough synth to balance the funk and disco. But the vocal is really problematic. It gets its influences from the 80s and is pitched somewhere between Tony Hadley and Rick Astley. Bit much for me and putting me off checking the original track. [...]
The Tapeaters and Silenx . Two of the more interesting act to emerge in the last couple of years. So for Silenx to work his Nu-Disco excellence on The Tapeaters retro DiscoPop is a bit of a treat. The track 'Don't You Dare' is the Russian duo at their ElectroPop finest and Silenx adds his bright synthy sheen to the tune. The track has a smooth, laid back vibe despite being pretty upbeat, the thick , warm sounds that Silenx uses gives his reMix an little soft Funk, even Yacht, flavour in amonget the kickin' Disco [...]

The story of Russian synthpop duo The Tapeaters began in 2009 when Vadim Pukhov (vocals, synthesizers, guitars) and Dimitri Kozlow (synthesizers, talkbox) after years of participating in various projects decided to try to write a couple of songs together. Influenced by "the sound of the early 80s, this period of electrofunk and disco, when synthesizers took over the minds of musicians", their sound mixes airy vocals, soft sound of a vintage Moog synthesizer, dance beats and a welcome dash of pop, sending listeners [...]

If you thought that Russian Nu-Disco & ElectroPop began and ended with Tesla Boy you'd be sorely mistaken! Enter The Tapeaters , who have just released their début album 'Visions', the duo of Vadim Pukhov and Dimitri Kozlow who are producing some of the slickest DiscoPop, not just in Russia, in the world! The album is track after track of dancefloor driving ElectroPop with groove. Matching up the funky basslines of Nu-Disco with 80's SynthPop melodies and soft spoken, soulful, vocals, The Tapeaters produce a sound that is pretty hard to beat. The are, of [...]

You can't have missed that we're going to Poland to support our favourite Polish electropop band Kamp! next weekend. Since we have heard so good things about Poland and since our Madrid trip was put forward, we might even go back there the week after too. If the gods are willing of course. Meanwhile, Kamp! have been remixed by the Russian disco house act to watch out for in 2011; The Tapeaters . Good stuff! Kamp! - Distance Of The Modern Hearts (The Tapeaters Remix) [Tracasseur exclusive]

It's been a while since we have had anything to report on Russian synthpop duo The Tapeaters . About two weeks ago, they released their debut album Visions on OMG! Recordings . To make way for the album, they released the first single off the album, "Satellite" in November. The sexual, catchy and ridiculously funky track has been playing on my iPod ever since. Download: Satellite - The Tapeaters (Right Click, Save As) The single comes with remixes by some big players, with Lifelike , Ghost Of Venice and Xinobi [...]

One week ago The Tapeaters released their debut album "Visions" on American label OMG! Recordings . The Tapeaters from Russia are a duo consisting of Vadim Pukhov and Dimitri Kozlow, and they began as Tapeaters last year. They have released an EP and a couple of singles earlier during the year but now it's time for the full-length album. "Visions" is an album that moves around in the lands of electro-pop. With clear influences from the 80s and early 90s new wave The Tapeaters superbly manage to bring something fresh into the scene of this [...]

The Tapeaters are blowing the blog world with their mix of indie-disco pop and have now just released their debut record via OMG! Records . They have had some attention with their first singles Oh My and The Tapeaters Theme , but recently made major waves with their single Satellites . It appears these cosmonauts have no plans of slowing down after getting Ghosts Of Venice , Likelike and Xinobi to help with the remixes. Buy This . The [...]

Desde la fría Rusia, hoy tenemos con nosotros en Como Las Grecas a la banda The Tapeaters. Este dúo llega pisando bastante fuerte!. Después de un par de EP editados el pasado 2009 y otro single en este 2010, ahora nos traen su álbum de debut "Visions", un increíble trabajo de Electropop con tintes de Funk cargado de muy buenos temas. Un gran sonido que parece que ya se está expandiendo bastante y muy rápido, de echo su primer single "Satellite" lo remezclan artistas de la talla de Lifelike o Xinobi. Espero, sea de su agrado este "Visions"... [...]

Much have happened since we first posted The Tapeaters on this blog. First off: they've been signed to OMG! Records in the U.S. Second: they've been remixed by Lifelike, Xinobi and Ghost of Venice. How about that? And to top it all off, they seem like really nice guys, that's always a big plus in my book. It's almost a week since the release of their massive Satellite EP, and I can say without blinking that it is amazing. Their ability to mix good old fashioned electro with a dash of pop is what shows their [...]
The Tapeaters - Satellite (Xinobi Remix) I know I already wrote about Xinobi days ago but I just love everything he does. He remixed The Tapeaters ' Satellite. The final result is pretty much a gem. Знам че преди няколко дни пак писах за Xinobi , но как да не го направя отново. Харесвам всичко, което прави! Сега той ремиксира Satellite на The Tapeaters , а резултатът е страхотен.
