SummersRadio™ Classic! Orbital!

SummersRadio™ Classic! Orbital - 'Halcyon + On + On' 'Halcyon' was first released by Orbital in 1992 on the 'Radiccio' EP. This version appeared on their second eponymous album (known as both 'Orbital 2' and the 'Brown Album') which was released in '93, and both feature a sample of Opus III's 'It's A Fine Day' - with the vocals from Kirsty Hawkshaw looped backwards! I wanted to post something classic for New Year's Eve - and I think the visuals for this song are a good reminder to enjoy all the beauty that the world has to offer us in the New Year. I hope you all have a fine night tonight - and I look forward to bringing lots of new and interesting music your way in 2011... Cheers!!

SummersRadio™ New Remix! Triple X!

SummersRadio™ New Remix! Triple X - 'Feel The Same 2011' (Gary Caos House Touch Remix) One of my favorite club tunes of 1999 has just been re-released with several new remixes! Triple X's 'Feel The Same' is a disco house classic that first came out on the Ministry Of Sound label - it features a sample from a track called 'You & I' from the British soul group Delegation's 1979 album called 'Eau De Vie'. This and other Delegation songs have been sampled by artists such as Dizzee Rascal, Phats & Small, Lifelike and Ice Cube! Triple X are an Italian production duo and 'Feel The Same' was a number 1 club hit in the U.K. in the summer of '99. New remixes have just been released under the title 'Feel The Same 2011' on the Rise Records label - including this one from Gary Coas... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ Best Of 2010! Asino Di Medico!

SummersRadio™ Asino Di Medico! Asino Di Medico - 'Sahib' (Original Mix) So I was checking out the Sneakerz Muzik website (http://www.sneakerzmuzik.nl/) whose latest release is the Yasmin Le Bon track posted below - and I really liked the song playing on the site so I thought I'd post it as well! This monster tune called 'Sahib' is from Asino Di Medico (who is also from Holland) and was released in October - and I like it so much I'm tagging it as a last minute addition to the Best of 2010!... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Yasmin Le Bon!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Yasmin Le Bon - 'Voice Within' (Original Mix) Yasmin Le Bon (who incidentally, is not related to the vocalist of the band posted below - nor is she a supermodel) has just released a new three song EP called 'Love Is Not A Possession'. This Yasmin Le Bon was born in the Netherlands and is currently signed to Amsterdam's Sneakerz Muzik label - she is in fact the first female dj/ producer signed to the label! This is the first track on the EP called 'Voice Within'... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music + Video! Duran Duran!

SummersRadio™ New Music + Video! Duran Duran - 'All You Need Is Now' Duran Duran released their new studio album (their 13th!) called 'All You Need Is Now' digitally last week, and first week sales have been surprisingly impressive after the low chart entries for 2007's 'Red Carpet Massacre' release. It seems to be doing well all over the world - except here in Canada! It debuted at #2 on itunes in both the U.K. and the U.S. and even at number one in a few European countries - so I just checked the Canadian albums chart and it sits down at #65 - a bit odd since they've generally been more popular here than in the U.S. In any case I thought that perhaps they were trying a bit too hard to sound cutting edge - or current - on 'Red Carpet Massacre'. I liked some of it, but they sound much more themselves here on this - the title track from the new album - for those fans wanting a cd the physical release will be out in February... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Remix! Cut Copy!

SummersRadio™ New Remix! Cut Copy - 'Take Me Over' (Thee Loving Hand Remix) Cut Copy release their third album called 'Zonoscope' in February. The cover art - which looks a bit like Niagara Falls was moved to downtown New York city - is by the late Japanese photomontage artist Tsunehisa Kimura. 'Take Me Over' is the first single from the album and this new remix is by Thee Loving Hand aka Tim Goldsworthy - Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ Best Of 2010! Deadmau5 & Chris Lake!

SummersRadio™ Best of 2010! Deadmau5 & Chris Lake - 'I Said' (Michael Woods Remix) Toronto's Deadmau5 and London's Chris Lake teamed up on this single which was released in February at the height of Vancouver's Olympic mayhem - helping to make it next to impossible to get into his free performance during the 2010 winter games! The song is included on his 4x4=12 album released earlier this month, and this remix by Michael Woods is one of the finest club singles of the year... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ Classic Remix! The Flaming Lips/ Scott Hardkiss!

Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse Featuring The Flaming Lips - 'Revenge' Oklahoma City's Flaming Lips are featured on the opening track of the Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse release 'Dark Night Of The Soul' - and like all other artists featured on the album - they also had a hand in composing and producing the track!
