GOLDROOM / TRAXX / LE YOUTH

THREE of the Best In The World positively-driven mentalities you can ever envisage, are brought together on a fresh outlook committed on putting any wrongs right and naturally taking on the power of the synth, the harmony and the extra added classiness.

It’s a wonderful thing for equally: Goldroom, Traxx and Le Youth.

LE YOUTH – Dance With Me (Dub Version)

Grain Noir, Zander Bleck, CeasarSoundSystem, Sound Remedy, The Boomzers, Back From The Future + Dada Life

Embodying the French quintessence of production, programming, visuals, image and sound: Grain Noir is where “Grain” is an acronym that stands for “Generative, Random, Audio, Images & Numbers” and “Noir (Black)” refers to the unknown, hypothetical dark matter that makes up nearly 80% of this universe.

Grain Noir is a concept which brings together the idea of themes running through concepts and divided theories about glacier surges being horsewhipped into chaos.

Dedicating its progressive outlook to the human being of today and tomorrow – plus the perimeters of the past and the future, Grain Noir’s 4-track EP of electronic surprises experiment kindly to everybody’s ears, and open up the real meaning of paradoxes and us mere mortals being absent amongst our digital / analogue machines.

*  *  *  *

On Zander Bleck’s New York remix package, the Sick Individuals Dub releases its love-thrown dart quite sternly and is clearly the best of the best from this package bar none. Proper flawless-euphoria is on offer there.

CeasarSoundSystem provides the always favoured free downloads basket of electro-fried goodies necessitating a 4-track EP starting from ‘Monkey,’ ‘The System’ and ‘Grip’ (which we’ve posted before) being the biggest heavyweights of the pack. We’ll let you decide …

Sound Remedy shouts us an Anthony Howell chirp and goes rather Indie to start off with, but ends up in traditional S.R. land where beggars & choosers are fighting for their next Giro and benefit cheques to be cashed.

The Boomzers circle in red the 11 May 2012 on their calendar for this rather rude & fierce Cyberpunkers remix and Back From The Future tell us all why they love Wynter Gordon so much + why she is actually their secret God daughter from a baptism christening that they were never invited to …

Finally on the video platform, Dada Life present themselves in either an ode to Aphex Twin + Chris Cunningham for their visual idea.. or they’re actually secretly telling us that they want to be a couple of Lady Boys on call from Thailand. Either way, this sole production when put aside from the video – is the tip of the top / a good one for Dada Life.

Seven selections: for the lucky Seven’s amongst you.

ALAN BRAXE / NOTORIOUS B.I.G. / DON DIABLO / B.CHEN / SILENX / Tha InsomniACTS

The smell of freshly cut green grass and the crisp breeze of a birds singing day is almost enough to send you back to those blissful lunchtime hours you spent sitting on the field in Junior School.

Failing THAT … An alternative trip to your local park where you have to put up with the smell of dog poop randomly is not what anyone would call as a pleasant lunch break.. but I know which one I would opt for.

Neatly packed into a transparent underarm lunchbox container are five more production-housed edits – consistently prepared and cut with all the wheat germ folic nutrients that Don Diablo, South Florida‘s duo of Tha InsomniACTS, B.Chen, Silenx and our BONUS men: Alan Braxe and Ford & Lopatin can seriously provide.

And no.. you can get your own sandwiches’ …

PHANTOGRAM vs. THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G. – Kleptomaniac (B.Chen Mashup)

CAMILLE – Sanges Sweet (Michael Creange & WEKEED Remix)

Michael Creange has just dropped this palladium encased, bunny wabbit fluffed-up: twinkle toed number onto our doorsteps.. so we thought we’d throw it right back at ya in Camille’s true spirit of ‘Sanges Sweet!’ The opinion of this production is written all over the song title and the cover art, plus the sounds are ultimately gorgeous for the dance floor too. A*Star!

THE THIRD vs. CHROMEO + PANPAN MASTER

Oh God.. I think the candles and peach & strawberry scented bubble bath is about to come out via a rendition by The Third this Saturday.

Wonderfully reintroducing Chromeo’s poetry and PanPan Master’s electronic wizardry, we’re all off to our nearest lake to do some panning for gold and more mumbling about how dry / empty our UK streams are at the current moment. (Snigger, Snigger …)

CLAUDE VIOLANTE – For You

Also operating as part of the duo known as Haussmann, this wickedly upbeat melody from Claude Violante is her latest solo release on Tsunami-Addiction Records. Embracing the hate (with the swaying melancholy chords) and destroying the afterthought of negativity (around near acid house / ambient tendencies), this four track Claude Violante EP is far better than having two glasses of white wine in the evening …

TRAXX – Discovery (Pyramid Remix)

Telling a straightforward tale of unfussy Pyramid dizziness unquestioned by orchestral pianos and 2201 universes, France’s Etienne Copin remains as minimal and space-filled as a milky way overrun with cosmic sadness.
