This one is a new one, dropped into my inbox by Future Classic, that Australian label who brought you Flight Facilities. As part of their compilation series of Australian bands covering French hits, Future Classic introduce us to Mitzi, reviving the vintage cosmic disco sounds of French-Canadian band, Zig Zag. Listen to the original track...
The Rapture – How Deep Is Your Love
A few months ago The Rapture released How Deep Is Your Love. On Tuesday this week, DFA got in touch with the release of the vinyl version of the remixes that includes A-Trak‘s Dub For Mehdi version, a homage to his good friend Dj Mehdi who passed away a few months ago and a remix...
Cosmo Black
A rather straight to the point e-mail from Australia’s Cosmo Black: “I got my heartbroken this week. Between hangovers I put together a track. Uncleared samples so might not be able to release it (it didn’t get her back so maybe it’s not good enough anyway)” [Cosmo Black - We Drink To The Sound of...
Moustache Machine – Miami 1986 EP
Another new massive EP from this Parisian label, Yeah Dish recs. Moustache Machine‘s ep has its own storyline: its the 80s in Miami, it involves coppers, a submarine called Pluton, and massive amount of smuggled cocained code-named Moustache Machine. A lot of heavy, warm, melting synths, space-d out basslines and incredible transistions in these tunes....

Lifelike – Motion
Fucking Tuesdays. If you hate tuesdays like I do then you and me need to agree that we need a little pick-me-up. How about Lifelike‘s new single Motion? I kinda gotten over Italo for a while now but this one’s really doing it for me today. I put it on on my walk home from...
Just Kiddin
Just Kiddin, two dudes from Leicester. Doin bubblin disco and tropical house, the kinda stuff you’d expect to be played at a pool party at the top of some penthouse in the heat of summer. Just one word of advice: that tash has to go, I’m not kidding. [Just Kiddin - Last Chance Saloon] [Just...

It’s in the air already ain’t it, the summer feeling. Technically, we’re still on Spring but that’s not gonna stop anyone getting into the mood. Flight Facilities has done an edit of this Aeroplane x Friendly Fires x Giselle mashup. It’s done in their signature breeze-y lounge disco style. I thought you might like this...
Cadillac – Lets Do It
Oh god I love Cadillac. The first time I featured these Australian disco djs was like sometime last year. Everything about Cadillac screams “Summer!!!” and that’s exactly what I want right now.

Polygon Palace
Polygon Palace did a remix of Human Life awhile back which I’ve already covered. They got in touch with me yesterday to tell me about their latest single, We Have A Visual which was actually a pleasant little surprise, considering I had an adverse reaction to their friends Grafton Primary. We Have A Visual is...
Cassette Schwarzenegger
What an awesome name for a band! Cassette Schwarzenegger came out of nowhere, dropped a really simple message in my inbox and I nearly skipped it! This is the danger of sending plain-text emails with no branding / image content to bloggers like me who receive thousands of emails a day – it’s almost impossible...
