Fred Falke - Aurora

New Music | Fred Falke

Sometimes you hear middle 8's in house music and you just know what's going to happen. Cut the treble, cut the middle, slowly bring them back in, beat mash then break. Job done. But I love how Aurora breaks the mould, the Baywatch drums come from nowhere after a 1 minute hiatus.

It's only taken him about 8 million years to put together but Part IV has been well worth the wait. Check it out. And did you know that Fred actually beat Nero to it in sampling Crush On You by The Jets - on his first release with Alan Braxe - Intro. There you go, some nice pop triv on a Tuesday evening.

Gotye ft Kimbra - Somebody That I Used To Know (Myndset Remix)

New Music | Gotye | Myndset

Gotye has actually been releasing albums since 2003, and he's still coming out with some pretty awesome new tunes today. The original mix of this track Somebody That I Used To Know is good, but this remix by one of LA's hottest talents Myndset, is off the scale. It's chilled, it's electro, it's got male and female vocals, it's got a start, a beginning, and an end. Niiiice.

Nero - Reaching Out (Fred Falke Remix)

New Music | Nero | Fred Falke

I would have thought that remixing Nero might have been a bit beneath the big Frenchman on campus, old Fred Falke, but apparently not. I actually love the album mix of this track but Fred turns this into an instant house classic.

Oh hi, by the way. Didn't see you there! Yeah, been busy, but boy do I have some Christmassy treats for you. Stay tune-d.

College Ft Electric Youth - A Real Hero

New Music | College | Electric Youth

Drive literally has to be the coolest film I have ever seen in my whole life. No, NMB is not turning into a film review blog, but holy crap it's good. And this College tune epitomises the whole thing really. Out of context maybe it won't have such an impact, so go see it then have a listen again. MMMMMMMM lovely. Everything about the 80s that makes me feel all tingly and nostalgic, and everything about the 10s that makes me feel all tingly and contemporary.

New Music Event: Electro Vs Dubstep Wars @ Koko

New Music Event | Electro Vs Dubstep Wars @ Koko

Hosted by The Playground, Electro Vs Dubstep Wars promises to be another filthy night at Koko, on September 10th. With Steve Aoki (the man behind the absolutely insane Dim Mak label) headlining his only London show of 2011, electro doesn't come much tastier. Plus with some Modestep thrown in the mix and one of my favourite bands Does It Offend You, Yeah? it's almost too good to be true. But it is. Weird huh.
