Another great Phoenix remix! Two in one day! Poindexter’s more subdued take on ‘Trying to be Cool’ is full of his usual padded, fluffy synths, plus some funky guitar riffs and a hefty analogue sounding bassline. A tad here and there but overall very cool vibe.
Not sure how I missed this one, amazing tune!
I love good remixes of Phoenix, and this one certainly is just that. Effortlessly smooth syths over the slow and steady rhythm, accompanied by the Pheonix vocals make for a surprisingly epic listen.
Seeing as I’m doing this now, I should probably put this song on here and write something quirky about it. Or you could just listen to it, enjoy it because its awesome, and then download it because it’s free.
OK, silly me, I didn’t like this on first listen, but it’s actually rather good. Lush synthwork, cool lady vocals and artwork with what looks like stick men wrestling. Totally sold.
Superb original production by Allure - the french house feel and classy vocal give this a somewhat Breakbot-ish feel about it, which is a compliment to say the least.
Huge release by The Presets! I think i preferred this, the Tomas Barfod remix - nice big atmospheric mix with all the things I like plus just enough that vocal to get stuck in your head. Good job… Mr Barfod.
This started growing on me the more I listened to it. Super fun summertime tune.
Well Daft Punk fever clearly has swept the globe. On a completely unrelated note, here is a recent track released on Monstercat by somebody called Televisor. It’s full of slick guitar licks, chopped up vocoded vocals, french-house piano chords, simple one-two percussion and an unrelenting bassline. So, it’s nothing like Daft Punk! This is genuinely very good.
