Haiku Salut – The More And Moreness

Tom

I cannot say Haiku Salut have ever rocked my world despite their impressive lamp show. The More And Moreness was a recent single and one I have recently discovered. And it’s ace, sounding like a cross between the BBC Radiophonic Workshop and New Order 1982/83. And if that isn’t enough there is also a rather spiffing remix by long term collaborator Thomas Ragsdale (Winter Son/Ghosting Season) which can be found on the Occupy single the band released earlier this year. The More And Moreness is taken from the album There Is No Elsewhere. I may have to dig deeper! Facebook Continue reading Haiku Salut – The More And Moreness

Kosmonaut – Debbie Harry’s Smile (Remix)

Tom

Leading on from yesterday here is a second remix of Debbie Harry’s Smile this time by Voodoo Reay. Initially, because of the remixer’s name which I guess is a homage to A Guy Called Gerald, I thought this one was going to turn into a full on dance floor affair but it settled down with electronic beats running perfectly alongside the original vocals and structure. Not a bad remix to be fair! and here is the original: Get both tracks from here. Facebook Continue reading Kosmonaut – Debbie Harry’s Smile (Remix)

Something For The Weekend

Tom

How about some electronica for the weekend? Copy For Collapse – Grey Sunday (Proxy Remix) A very good remix of Grey Sunday by Proxy. Not as accessible as the original (which you can find here) but still impresses with a much harder sound. Facebook New Order – Plastic If Restless and it’s pretty boring remixes got you down and had you thinking it sounded the death knell (again!) for New Order then you may have to have a rethink! Plastic is pretty good and must be the next single surely given it’s remix potential. It sounds like the band has … Continue reading Something For The Weekend

Star Horse – Slower Now (Remixes)

Tom

I mentioned Star Horse and their excellent Slower Now single last month. It’s now had the remix treatment courtesy of Thunberg and LTZA. Both mixes concentrate on the vocals which stood out on the original and highlight them to great effect. The former is upbeat, almost dancey in places but it’s the latter remix I prefer which drifts in and out of ambient/film score territory resulting in a dreamy and atmospheric feel.  Neither are better than the original though so give that a listen first. Facebook Continue reading Star Horse – Slower Now (Remixes)

Holiday Tuneage!

Tom

It’s going to be a bit silent around here for the next couple of weeks whilst I am away but that doesn’t mean that there will be nothing left to listen too judging by this round up post which features some music I have meaning to mention separately but time etc. First up is The Death of Pop with their new single Bubble Bath that features four excellent indie pop tracks. Not much progression from their previous work but if it ain’t broke………………. The excellent The Choo Choo Trains, who describe themselves as playing “girl-guide Shoegaze”, have a new cassette … Continue reading Holiday Tuneage!

A Copy For Collapse – Grey Sunday

Tom

Grey Sunday is the second single taken the second album, Waiting For, by Italian electronic duo A Copy For Collapse. It’s a great track that weaves lush patterns throughout mixing laid back electronica with a dose of dreampop. The album is pretty good too. If shoegazing was a techno sub genre then it may have sounded like Waiting For! Grey Sunday, bundled with remixes, can be purchased digitally from here. Waiting For can be purchased on 12″ vinyl from here. It can also be purchased digitally here. Facebook Soundcloud Continue reading A Copy For Collapse – Grey Sunday
