Hejven.se

Today is a very special day. Tonight we throw our first party at NASA and I hope that many of you will show up, dance and have a chat! We open at 00:00 so get there early.

But it’s also Friday and that means BANGERS!
And as you might have noticed I’ve grown fond of nu-disco and disco-house the past couple of weeks. So more of that today!

First track is one I just got my hands on. And I mean literately just – as in seconds ago. It’s a new track that is supposed to be featured on the upcoming Sound of Copenhagen (vol. 7 that is). The original is made by danish pop group The FireFlies but luckily grand old man Kjeld Tolstrup asked producer, DJ and remixer Bryonjolfur to remix this track. And something amazing came out! It’s a hard beating disco-house track that plays around with the vocals in the most delicious way. It’s only for streaming right now, but watch out for the next SoC album!

Second track is one I stumbled upon at a friends blog, WeAreSkitzo. It’s made by Toro Y Moi and remixed by one of my favorites, Xinobi who is signed with the awesome D.I.S.C.O.texas.

Next up is, to me, unknown Canadian Chilly Gonzales. His originals are quite funky (check youtube or somthin’) but this remix by Fare Soldi added a little beat and speed to the track making it more danceable according to the lyrics. “Dance motherfucker, dance”!

Remember “The Pyramid Dancer” by Peter Zohdy aka. Sorte Slyngel (The Phantom Blot). It was this disco track with people singing “la la lai” throughout the track. Huge! Well now he’s on it again. “Cleaning Up The Ghetto” is another pumping disco track for your Friday!

Last track is from fantastic DFA signed Holy Ghost! It’s called “I Will Come Back” and this will be one of your favorite tracks very soon! It might be a bit old, but still.. :<3: Anyway Classixx remixed it and I think it works quite well.

Man skulle ikke tro det, men det er faktisk allerede blevet fredag igen! Og ja, det betyder endnu flere tracks til festen, iPod’en eller bare til et lille glas rødvin efterfulgt af raveparty i en forladt lagerbygning?

Vi er ikke bange for at sige at denne uges Friday Bangers igen byder på lækre tracks og dejlige toner.

Vi starter stærkt med Daft Punk. Den franske houseduo bringer os her et track der ligger lige i deres ånd. Hård bas og deres velkendte elektroniske lyde. Her er de blevet remixet af fransk/canadiske The Wrøng Man.

Næste nummer er et dejligt samarbejde på tværs af landegrænser. Her er tyske Moulinex gået sammen med Xinobi fra Portugal om at lave et tema til det kollektiv og pladeselskab, D.I.S.C.O Texas, de begge er medlemmer af. Tracket hedder slet og ret “D.I.S.C.O Texas Theme” og er remixet af tyske Esto!. Der har været gang i en ordentlig omgang cut/slice, men hvis man lige giver tracket en chance udvikler det sig ganske positivt!

Nu begiver vi os tilbage til Frankrig og til Pony Pony Run Run der med deres “Hey You” har sat præg på den popelektroniske scene. Endnu en franskmand, Kolt13, har lige været omkring tracket og sat lidt mere fut i sagerne.

Bliver vi ved den powerpoppen finder vi australske Empire of the Sun der om nogen har genopfundet glamrocken. “Stading On The Shore” har været en tur igennem Cassian‘s computer og det er der kommet et fint track ud af der klart befinder sig inden for elektropoppens rammer.

Sidst men bestemt ikke mindst finder vi Gossip med den farverige og volumeniøse Beth Ditto i front. “Love Long Distance” har været spillet en del i radioen, men helt sikkert ikke denne version. Riva Starr har i høj grad fucked med vokalen og bruger den ofte mere som instrument – enten kan man li’ det ellers så hader man det!

Anyway, ha’ en forrygende weekend!
