SummersRadio™ New Music + New Remix! Manuel De La Mare & Alex Kenji - 'Acid As 303' (Original Club Mix)/ Hardfloor - 'Acperience 1' (Robert Babicz Spacefunk Remix)
Italy's Manuel De La Mare and Alex Kenji have just released the first acid techno monster club tune of 2012! 'Acid As 303' was just released on Monday and in just five days it's already lept into the top 3 on Beatport's top 100 techno chart. The one track single is released on Toolroom Records - and the label aptly describes the song as a 'beast of a tune'.
This is the 'Original Club Mix' of the rather awesome song 'Acid As 303'... Enjoy!
Germany's Hardfloor have released a new remix of their acid techno classic 'Acperience 1'! 'Acperience 1' first appeared as the first of four numbered versions of the track on the 'Hardtrance Acperience EP', which was released in 1992 on the Harthouse label.
Last month they released the new 'Two Decades Edition' EP of the track on their own self titled label. The EP features two tracks - this new remix from Robert Babicz, plus the original. This is the 'Robert Babicz Spacefunk Remix' of 'Acperience 1' - it's pretty faithful to the original, as perhaps should be the case with such a classic - but it also has just enough different bits to keep it fresh... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ New Music! Ramon Zenker & Harada - 'Rappelkiste' (Original Mix) Germany's Ramon Zenker (also a member of Hardfloor!) and Harada have released their latest single called 'Rappelkiste'! The song title is also the name of a German tv show, but I'm not sure how this relates to it - if at all. It's a one track single released on the BluFin label - and it's currently available exclusively on Beatport here: http://www.beatport.com/#release/rappelkiste/831795
'Rappelkiste' features a hypnotic rolling bassline, funky percussion, and some curious vocal samples that add up to a rather delicious slice of techno... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ Rare Remix! New Order - 'Blue Monday' (Andrea Remix) Few club songs are as legendary and influential as New Order's 'Blue Monday'. It was first released as a 12 inch single in March of 1983 on the Factory Records label. It's been re-released several times - most notably in 1988 and 1995 - and remixed countless times! I was much more impressed with the '95 remixes over the '88 ones - especially with the Hardfloor remix. What was really surprising was when I first listened to this 'Andrea Remix' - New Order... doing reggae?!? It's a bit of a reggae/ ambient hybrid actually, and it works amazingly well. This was originally the fourth track on the 'Blue Monday '95' cd single - this is the 'Andrea Remix'... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ New Video! Hardfloor - 'Silver Submarine' Hardfloor have just released the official video for the first single from their new album called 'Two Guys Three Boxes'. My post on Nov. 10th for the 12" teaser of 'Silver Submarine' has been quite popular so I thought I'd post the new video as well. Looks like they were going for a low budget porno look here - complete with a 'hot' ironing scene! There aren't too many of those in music videos... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ Classic Remix! The Human League - 'Filling Dub With Heaven' (Hardfloor Remix) It's no wonder that The Human League decided to take a break after 2001's 'Secrets' album. The timing seemed perfect - just as electroclash was gaining popularity - and many critics hailed it as their best since 'Dare'. However sadly their record label at the time Papillon had financial problems and they were shut down shortly after the albums release, leading to poor promotion and sales. The band nearly called it a day but they've stuck together and they've since had numerous successful tours. 'Filling Up With Heaven' was the third single released from their 1995 comeback album 'Octopus' and this dub version was remixed by Hardfloor... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ Classic! The Presets - 'Anywhere' (Still Going Remix) There's no official release date set yet for Sydney's The Presets new third album, but it is expected early next year - and they have announced that they will debut their new live show at the Tasmanian Music festival in February! In the meantime we can bask in the glow of greatness that is 'Anywhere' from their 'Apocalypso' release. I love the weight of the line 'So let yourself down tonight... Anywhere' and I love this remix - very Hardfloor - Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ New Music! Hardfloor - 'Silver Submarine'/ 'F.U.B.A.R.' (Dj Pierre's AfroAcid Remix/ album versions) Germany's techno pioneers Hardfloor have just released their new ten track album entitled 'Two Guys Three Boxes'! 'Silver Submarine' is their new 12" single and this video features equal parts of the three tracks from it - the DJ Pierre AfroAcid Remix, as well as the album version, and another album track called 'F.U.B.A.R.'... Enjoy!
