Chasing Colours With Light
July 28, 2011 Posted by admin at 11:27 am
You know the first time that you hear a new track, and you’re taken back a little? Your mouth tightens and you smirk stupidly and the only vocal response you are able tos tructure is “Woah”. Well, the debut single from All The Lights had that effect on us. Chasing Colours is one of those records that defies being genre pigeon holed, projecting a luminous brilliance which encompasses blissful elements of indie, pop, dance and more. Did I mention there were key’s in there too yet?
Anyway, it’s one of the most infectious records we have come across in a long time, with a remix pack that seems almost frankenstein on the surface, with house music heavyweight Ian Carey bringing his A-game, along with some deep house beats and disco sampled treats from Plastic Plates and Moonchild. But it somehow comes together as a single remix pack, which is just a moment of total musical completedness. It’s out at the end of August, so you have a couple of weeks to prepare your soul for this.

Always With Who?

Trading in his main-room bleep-house for a sound fresher than a new pair of socks, UK house meister Ridney has over-filtered his way back from the future to reverberate his way through the loins and into your soul with his new jam Always With You. This is truly the good kind of music. Always With You is aurally viral; heaps of hats and full of warmth and vibe…. Soo much vibe. It’s a strobe-lit stereo popper, set to burn a whole through main-rooms, back-rooms, iPods, iPads and all other devices you can use to play music on these days.
Re-working this wonder, His Majesty Andre (Cheap Thrills/MODA) waives his musical wand across the track, compressing and sequencing the track into a four-minute-and-seven-second floor filling edit. Taking a few steps back from that front-left speaker stack, is James Curd (DFA/Greenskeepers) who provides no less than three loving re-workings of the track, each defining their own moment of beauty and perfection.
It’s due to hit Juno/Beatport/iTunes on August 4th, so set yourself an ical.

A Cosmically Soft Universe

PNAU have always caused a bit of fuss and fluster with every project they’re invovled with, and delivering their latest album Soft Universe was no different. “It’s the sound of now…” according to Rolling Stone, and we would tend to agree with them in this instance. Soft Universe is an amazing expression of emotive electronica, defining a point in space, time and music for the band. With the duo taking to the main-stage at Splendour In The Grass sooner than you can imagine, you’re running out of time to learn the lyrics, so grab your copy of Soft Universe from JB Hifi or iTunes today.

Why wasn’t this up on the internet earlier! The video for PNAU’s latest single ‘Solid Ground’ takes everything that is amazing about NYC, and compresses it into a nice little streamed video production that rames ‘Solid Ground’ perfectly. Album is out at the end of the month, and we’re already beaming about it. It’s definitely going to be huge.
