Electro-House duo ZX have been a bit quite for a while now, since we last wrote about the them have changed their name (well, spelling at least) to Zedex (which I think is better) and, if their new reMix of their friends Fenech-Soler new current 'Demons' is anything to go by, have been developing a smoother, slicker sound. The reMix rocks more of a Disco vibe than their previous, more distorted noisy House, offerings, showing a defiantly maturing of their sound. This track almost goes Cosmic in places with big, lush, synth [...]
Spanish SynthPop outfit Delorean have recently announced their signing with True Panther records along with a new single and début full-length album. Gaining some recognition with their EP 'Ayrton Senna' (leading to offers to support Miike Snow on tour) Delorean have quite an eagerly awaited record on their hands. 'Stay Close' will be the first single form the album, 'Subzia', and it's an upbeat, quite Lo-Fi, slice of summery SynthPop with a Hot Chip-esq lead line and loads of reverby backing vocal acrobatics! ♫ Delorean - Stay Close (zShare) [...]
12th March sees the release of 'Baby', the new single by space indie-funk outfit The Phenomenal Handclap Band , on Gomma. The single includes reMixes by Blackstrobe, Daniel Haaksman, Rodion and this on by Clock Opera , which has a sweet, chilled, Indie-Disco vibe that makes you think everything is going to be alright! ♫ The Phenomenal Handclap Band - Baby (Clock Opera reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) Clock Opera have reMixes in the works for two electronic rumors favs, Marina & The Diamonds and [...]
NYC Indie/Folk outfit The Antlers 's track 'Two' was a twee little acoustic guitar excursion, not the most obvious choice for a good hard reMixing but those kinds of the unexpected reMix the Buffetlibre DJs have done just that. What the Buffetlibre duo have done is created a really good SynthPop track out of the tune, it's got the beats and the synths but loses none of it's Indie (as Carles would put it) meaningfulness. ♫ The Antlers - Two (Buffetlibre reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) [...]
I first fell in love with Calling In Sick 's music after I heard their storming reMix of Midfield General (Feat. ViLa)'s 'Disco Sirens'. The Aussie duo's latest project is this rework of Bertie Blackman 's 'Black Cats' and it's got that wicked digital slap bass and huge distorted synth riffs that I loved about Calling In Sick's previous reMixes. This'll tear up any electro dancefloor! ♫ Bertie Blackman - Black Cats (Calling In Sick reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) Bertie Blackman has [...]
We Have Band 's new single, 'Honey Trap', has been masterfully reMixed by Canadian synth heads Le Matos . Rapid fire arpeggios fuel the track on top the steady disco beat. We Have Band and Le Matos is a pretty sweet pairing actually, the track works really well. Check out the driving ElectroPop tune here: ♫ We Have Band - Honey Trap (Le Matos reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) 'Honey Trap' is available from We Have Band's official site . [...]
OK, so they may be reMixing their own band but Kiss In Cities , the amazing Manchester ElectroPop act, we told you about here , who are comprised of two thirds of Indie-Dance outfit Performance ( Née (We Are) Performance ), have reworked said parent band's most popular track to date. 'Reptile'. The original song is cool but this reMix is just pretty mind blowing, almost perfect electronic pop, this will absolutely slay on any ElectroPop dancefloor! ♫ Performance - Reptile (Kiss In [...]
Ever since we got our hands on that radio rip of Van She covering Blue Öyster Cult's '(Don't Fear) The Reaper', we have been waiting impatiently for it to drop. The Bacardi B-LIVE folks have been telling us they were releasing it soon soon, but it never seemed to come soon enough! Well, it's finally here and, to be honest, it was worth the wait. Those huge Van She bass and lead synths are back! This is easily the best version of this song I've heard, Van She's Indie-Space-Disco is prefect for it! [...]
Ever since Mille 's reMix of Marina And The Diamonds 'Mowgli's Road' I have had a thirst for all reMixes Mille. Swedish Indie Pop act The Sound Of Arrows hare next up for Mille treatment and as per-usual he walks a big spacey line between Electro-House and Dreamwave. Here he mixes up 8-bit sounds, huge 80's lead lines and some crazy side-chaining! ♫ The Sound Of Arrows - Into the Clouds (Mille reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) The Sound Of Arrows' 'Into The Clouds' [...]
Marina And The Diamonds forthcoming single (her first general release?) 'Hollywood' has had it's video débuted, It's as witty, anthemic and quirky as you'd come to expect from Marina. The clip is directed by Kinga Burza: I'm quite looking forward to hearing Marina's album, 'The Family Jewels' when it drops. 'Hollywood is out 1st February 2010. Marina And The Diamonds @ PureGroove Marina And The Diamonds [...]
It's that time again, for one of the greatest UK Electro acts around, CHEW LiPS , to kindly give away another free track to coincide with the last of their regular club nights. This time there's a twist though, while previous giveaways have been taster of what to expect on their painfully anticipated for coming album, this tune 'Rising Tide' won't be featured on the release and the band have put it up online for a limited time only. The music here has got an almost Yazoo flavour which works perfectly with Tig's vocals. [...]
Ooo, it's nearly 'new Hot Chip album' time! 8th February 2010 is the current release date for 'One Life Stand', Hot Chip's fourth full studio album but the guys have decided to tease you all with this, the title track of the album. 'One Life Stand' is a brilliant title and the lyrics do it justice. The song is a mellow Dance-Rock sounding track which manages to come across full of genuine pathos while keeping the dancefloor happy. ♫ Hot Chip - One Life Stand (zShare) (MediaFire) [...]
September saw UK Indie-Popsters and MySpace darlings Flamboyant Bella release their single 'Get A Reaction' to mush hype. LA duo Breakdown stopped by the electronic rumors inbox to showcase the reMix they supplied to the single, and what a fantastic slice of Electro-Dance-Pop it is too! Huge, pumping bass dominates the track which sounds great with Flo Kirton's vocals and a slight hint of Nu-Rave about it gives it that edge. ♫ Flamboyant Bella - Get A Reaction (Breakdown Vocal reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) [...]
Le Corps Mince De Françoise are about to release their first single for Kitsuné Music . 'Something Golden' originally appeared on the 8th volume of the Kitsuné Maison series and now the crazy Electro girls are set to deliver a package with some killer reMixes. Zebra & Snake and Renaissance Man both take what is quite a disjointed song (true to LCMDF's style!) and work it into their individual dance grooves, although both reMixes have an individuality and edge that is fitting for a LCMDF track! ♫ Le [...]
This reMix of Ellie Goulding 's 'Under The Sheets' is actually a couple of months old but i felt like sharing. Cardiff newcomers Friends Electric are already causing waves and if this mix is anything to go by they have a bright future ahead of them. This is a solid reMix, a bass heavy floor filler! ♫ Ellie Goulding - Under The Sheets (Friends Electric reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) Have they added backing vocals? Nice! 'Under The Sheets' is out now. [...]
I love 'Reunited', it's one of my most played tracks this month, i seriously can't wait for Fan Death 's 'A Coin In The Well' EP that the track is taken from. To tide us over, have a listen to this reMix of 'reunited' by Sheffield based Electronica artist Ghost Hunter . Dragging Fan Death into strange new places, Ghost Hunter morphs Fan Death's moody disco into moody electronic soundscapes. Nice use of the lead line! ♫ Fan Death - Reunited (Ghost Hunter reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) [...]
A man like Beaumont has dropped his latest offering into the electronic rumors inbox, we always look forward to Andy's tunes here. 'Surface Mission' is a really intricate, chilled Electro tune with some sweet bit-crunched and distorted sounds which build up to those Disco synth strings. Give it a listen! ♫ Beaumont - Surface Mission (zShare) (MediaFire) Go show Andy some of your hard earned MySpace love! Beaumont @ MySpace P.S. Andy? *cough*remix?*cough*
Neon Gold certainly live up to their name, time and time again they churn out top act after top act. Last month NG's next hot artist Penguin Prison released his début single 'Animal Aninal/A Funny Thing', which generated a lot of hype with it's bubbly ElectroPop catchiness. Here we have a reMix of 'A Funny Thing' by London Indie-Synthsters Monarchy who make the track just that little bit deeper. ♫ Penguin Prison - A Funny Thing (Monarchy reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) [...]
Iceland's crazy bassheads Steed Lord have dropped their own reMix of 'Royal Ruffian' taken from their album 'Truth Serum'. It's a hell of a lot heavier than the original (now that the original was lightweight!), the lead synths and vocoders remain but the beats and bass hammer through the speakers. ♫ Steed Lord - Royal Ruffian (Steed Lord Club Mix) (zShare) (MediaFire) Go check out 'Truth Serum' in all it's Nu-Rave glory! Steed Lord @ Beatport [...]
When you get tow creative greats like DFA's Electro main man The Juan MacLean and Aussie Indie-Electro powerhouse Cut Copy you know something special is going to result! Cut Copy have tackled last year's huge single 'Happy House' and give it a dark, brooding groove with some sweet old school piano action. ♫ The Juan MacLean - Happy House (Cut Copy 'Space Is The Place' reMix (Full Mastered)) (zShare) (MediaFire) The 'Happy House' single can still be picked up along with 'The Future [...]
