Monarchy feat. Britt Love

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , on September 28, 2011 by silenceisboring

The elusive synth pop duo Monarchy have just released their latest single featuring the vocals by the wonderful Britt Love(known for her Mini Viva project – wish that didn’t end so early). The track itself sounds even more fantastic with her vocals and I’m so glad to see my favourite track off Around The Sun get a single release.

The single is out October 24th and comes with remixes fromMoonlight MattersBreakbotVillA and Daft Punk!

Swedish duo Korallreven are giving away their newest single ”As Young As Yesterday”, featuring vocals from Victoria Bergsman and taken from their debut album An Album By Korallreven. 

Unlike ”Honey Mine”, the new single features a more uplifting vibe, with pulsing strings, kettledrums and chipmunk vocals celebrate the end of summer by looking back on all the good times.

Introducing: Edwin van Cleef

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , on September 13, 2011 by silenceisboring

Edwin van Cleef is a nu disco producer / DJ from Leeds. He hasn’t really released much in the past couple of years, though what he does is pure quality. Check out his remix for The Futureheads, absolutely spectacular.

He has just released a new EP Never Be Alone At Night. The title track features the perfect cocktail for a dancefloor ready nu-disco track; a driving bass line, tons of synths and vocals from Tom Gavin of Gemini Club. oh yeah.

Triton is where things get crazy. Steel drums are involved, loads of synth, and is that part of ”Swoon” by The Chemical Brothers?

Louis La Roche x Shook

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , on September 12, 2011 by silenceisboring

After some pretty average remixes, it seems Louis La Roche is back in form and ready to drop his debut album “Hello You” on Ever After Records. The first single ”Gimme Gimme / The Wall”, will be released on September 19th and to celebrate they are giving away Shook‘s  funky remix of “The Wall”. Brilliant.

Enjoy.

Introducing: Alpines

Posted in Uncategorized with tags on September 9, 2011 by silenceisboring

I just watched the video for ”Cocoon”, the latest single from South-London duo Alpines. This truly is a polished piece of dark pop that’ll leave a haunting chill down your spine and all you’ll be able to do is watch it all over again.

The duo only formed last year, and since then have supported The Naked And Famous and their tracks have appeared on numerous videos. Quite impressive.

Released only last month ”Cocoon”, comes with remixes by Nocturnal Sunshine, Benny Page and XXXY.

DJ Shadow – New Album

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , on September 8, 2011 by silenceisboring

Unless you have been living under a rock, you know and most probably love DJ Shadow. His upcoming album The Less You Know, Is Better is out in a couple of weeks, and while most tracks are what you’d expect from Mr Shadow ”Warning Call” featuring vocals from Tom Vek, is a wonderful and welcomed surprise.

One stand-out track is the very beautiful ”Sad And Lonely”, where a heartbroken older woman describes her anguish about her ex-lover having left her for another woman. As the title suggests, it’s a truly moving listen.

On a more positive note, Shadow keeps it real.

Introducing: Queen Of Hearts

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , on September 5, 2011 by silenceisboring

 Queen of Hearts is a woman with a clear vision. Working with the best and most talked about English producers from day dot, she is about to take her throne as one of the most talked about, blogged about and hyped about pop stars of 2011 with the release of her debut EP The Arrival, featuring tracks produced by the likes of Dreamtrak, The Sound of Arrows, Diamond Cut and Monarchy. That may sound impressive, until you hear what else is in store for this superbly talent songstress – An album in the works with help from the likes of Stuart Price (We’ve heard one track, and it’s out of this world).

The first track for you to sample off this fabulous EP is a cover of Foals‘ “Spanish Sahara”, which her royal highness and Dreamtrak has transformed into a poised electro-pop gem. It is a truly breathtaking rendition which perfectly compliments other tracks off her upcoming EP.

The Magician – New Single

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , on September 1, 2011 by silenceisboring

Ever since his work with Aeroplane and his first remix under The Magician, Stephen Fasano has been one of my favourite producers. To this day ”Twist”, his collaboration with Yuksek, is one of my most listened to songs.

So when I heard the news of his first single is being released, I almost died. “I Don’t Know What To Do”, featuring Jeppe from Junior Senior on vocals, channels the very best of Alphabeat merges it with his delectable synths and pianos, creating some wonderful pop that will reaffirm his legion of fans and introduce many new ones.

“I Don’t Know What To Do” will be released on October 3 via Kitsuné with remixes by Plastic Plates and Fabian.

It’s pretty special.

Enjoy.
