I’ve been missing you

It’s been a rather sad Spring in Belgium so far, cold, not much sun, rain … but things are starting to look better if we may believe our “loved” weatherman over here. So let’s get some soundtracks going on. Props go out to Chemical Jump who posted the first two way ahead of me.

First up a track by Louis La Roche that I first heard in this eeuhm … dj set from … euhmm … some time ago. Almost forgot about it and then it suddenly popped up in Chemical Jump’ latest post. The track is called “Missing you” and combines some funky hot beats with some top notch rnb vocal work by Ad Apt. Brilliant as always from our french house/new disco god!

When Pharell appeared in a short video with our favourite yellow friend Flat Eric it was easy guessing that he would feature in a production of Mr. Oizo. He produced the debut album of Uffie where we indeed bump into Pharell for the track Add Suv. That album will be released the 14th of June by the way. Add Suv was hot on the blogs and so is this Armand Van Helden remix. I’m rather happy that he left the harder beats, like in his Memories remix, behind.

And I’m ending with a track that already had his release December last year. It was on the Shorties EP from an American based duo Swivel Hips. The track is called “Smell My Fingers”, it’s not the best track on the EP (you should definitely check out Cheaters and No Future For You) but it pretty much describers the setting of this amazing EP. I’m rather surprised we don’t hear or heard much of them but on facebook they say the next EP is almost finished, I’m curious if they can keep up the same level as this one. BUY the full EP right here!

On the second day of christmas …

… more tracks! I could have easily added them to the post below. But this way you guys won’t look over it. And for this post I’ll add some more “comments” to the tracks.

Uffie is finally coming with that long expected album next year. The first track we got from here was “Pop The Glock” which was actually an older track, but it now has his own videoclip and … remixes. This next fresh remix is by Felix Da Housecat. Love his producing skills, but his dj skills are a bit dissapointing (saw him at GrooveCity a good month ago).

Another christmas gift came from Erol Alkan. It’s an unreleased Disco 3000 edit of In Flagranti’s ‘Brash & Vulgar’. Mustapha 3000 is one of Erol Alkan’s aliasses, so I think Disco 3000 is aswell? Down tempo electro track with even a sample of Justice’s Let There Be Light in the second part of it.

Then a “special” track, something I’m curious about on how many of you guys are going to like this one. The original is from Mr Turkenburg, a music teacher. He made the track “In My Spaceship” along with his students. Stephen and David from Soulwax said on the radio that it’s going to be a big hit on Studio Brussels. I don’t know if they were just joking around or not, but In my case I hope it becomes one!

I recently posted a track “Rubix – Baiser Sur La Disco”. A true revival of disco, somewhat like “I Think I Like It” from Fake Blood. Baiser Sur La Disco is definitely one of my favourite tracks from 2009. He asked me if I could fix him up with some Belgian gigs. I had to dissapoint him and tell him that my influences aren’t that big, but all I can say to the organizers is: Check his productions, check his myspace, check this remix!
