SummersRadio™ New Music! Stand Up Against Heart Crime - 'I Need No Sun'/ 'Birth' (Live At Razzmatazz Club)
I reckon I've found the perfect song to post for the first day of fall in Vancouver... Stand Up Against Heart Crime have just released a new EP for their latest single 'I Need No Sun'! The brilliantly named Stand Up Against Heart Crime are an indie dream pop/ electronic band from Barcelona, Spain. They've released one single called 'Lost In Time And Space' and a self titled EP last year - both are available on Bandcamp here: http://standupagainstheartcrime.bandcamp.com/
'I Need No Sun' is the first single from their forthcoming debut full length album (date tba). The new 'I Need No Sun' EP features four tracks - the original plus three remixes - and it's available now on itunes. The remixes aren't available to share just yet (although I do recommend the 'Rho Remix') so we'll feature the original today. The song has a nice laid back Tangerine Dream vibe to it musically and I like the minimal lyrics - particularly the line 'I need no sun, I have my own'.
Their sound seems to have matured/ evolved rapidly. The production on this new song seems light years ahead of last year's releases - which were well produced - but I'd call this one expertly produced! I look forward to hearing their debut album - you can keep up with band on Facebook m'here: http://www.facebook.com/standupagainstheartcrime?ref=ts
Enjoy...!
This appears to be a new instrumental song called 'Birth' - recorded live this spring - which might provide us with some more insight into what their debut album will sound like. This song spikes my anticipation level - dare I say - sky high AND I also hope that they come to Vancouver someday soon as I'd love to see them live as well! 'Birth' is a perfect example of indie rock and electronic music (and I do love both) melding together flawlessly... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Coyu Featuring Austin Howard - 'Embrace' (Be-Beats Version)
Spain's Coyu has just released his latest EP called 'Embrace'! Ivan Ramos Salinas aka Coyu is an artist/ dj/ producer from Barcelona who also owns the Saura Music label. His new two track EP features two versions of the title track - the original and this 'Be-Beats Version'. It's released on the Area Remote label and is currently available exclusively on Beatport: http://www.beatport.com/#release/embrace/896491
I looked up Coyu on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/CoyuMusic and as soon as I saw his profile pic I knew that I was on to something good :)
I also like he he describes his sound "When house meets techno and the funk winks to the soul, the melody joins the groove and your body says wohoo!" and it's the 'Be-Beats Version' of 'Embrace' that does so here.
The song begins with a hypnotic groove - like a party train you suddenly hear in the distance. It gradually gets closer and closer and before you know it you're on the party train and you don't even know how you got on! You're travelling fast until you reach the Amazon rainforest - around 2:30 in you start to hear the calls of the birds and animals. Just before sunset, our tour guide - vocalist Austin Howard arrives - and where the journey takes you from there is up to you... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! + Classic Bonus Track! David Amo & Julio Navas - 'Squirt' (Original Mix)/ The Mighty Dub Katz - 'Magic Carpet Ride' (Son Of Wilmot Mix)
David Amo and Julio Navas are a dj/ production duo from Barcelona Spain who've just released their newest single this week! '3 Days And 3 Nights' is a three track EP featuring the title track, a song called 'Squirt' and a remix of 'Squirt' by Ron Costa. It's released on the Great Stuff Recordings label and is currently available exclusively on Beatport here: http://www.beatport.com/#release/3-days-and-3-nights/869086 You can keep up with Amo & Navas on their Facebook fan page here: http://www.facebook.com/amonavasfansite?sk=info
The title track is a quality tech house number with a nice gallop and a wicked baseline, but it has just a titch too much God talk for my taste - it's the second track 'Squirt' that instantly reeled me in. 'Squirt' begins with a nice hypnotic groove and then about two minutes in a massive bassline punts the song up to the next level. Before you know it 'Squirt' is um, erupting :) into a wonderful world of disco hi-hats, funky breakdowns, and trippy techno synths.
This is the 'Original Mix' of 'Squirt'... Enjoy!
Classic Bonus Track! The Mighty Dub Katz - 'Magic Carpet Ride' (Son Of Wilmot Mix)
The Mighty Dub Katz were a duo consisting of Norman Cook aka Fatboy Slim and Gareth Hansome aka GMoney. The excellent synth bassline in David Amo & Julio Navas' track 'Squirt' reminds me of the similarly hypnotic bassline of the Mighty Dub Katz 1995 club classic 'Magic Carpet Ride' - which also features a couple excellent fiesta style breakdowns! This is the 'Son Of Wilmot Mix' of 'Magic Carpet Ride'... Enjoy!
