Midnight Pool Party - Stay (Jordan F Remix)

One of our favorite Aussie synthwave producers, Jordan F, has recently released his latest remix for another one of our favorite Aussie disco bands, Midnight Pool Party. As usual, Jordan F's sound is synthy, melodic, and unusually catchy. This remix features smooth 80s synths coupled with funky exotic tropical melodies- a very interesting combination, one that really lets you feel the music.  
Be sure to give the track a spin below and make sure to follow Jordan F here.

Shazeb's April Selection.

I have come across more quality music in the past few weeks than I have in the past 6 months...Maybe I wasn't listening intently enough..Or maybe right now is just a freaking great time for indie music. I have stumbled across quite a few future-superstars and quite a few tracks that will really, really show you the power of synth. Enough talk, lets get to the music.

What i imagine to be the perfect place to listen to these tracks..



Let's start with the finest track i've come across. Seriously though, no track has made me marvel at music quite as much as ''Rumored To Be Real'' by the Bee's Knees since ''Shooting Stars'' by Bag Raiders. and that's saying a lot. Think Chromeo, VALERIE, Hey Champ, and Van She mixed in a blender with a touch of space disco..yes, that is how sexy the Bee's Knees are. Remember the name, they will be huge.







NANTES is an indie-rock group that is, ironically, from the only other place that makes great music-- Australia. Their track ''static'' is in the same style of music as many tracks released by Nate Salman and Waterstrider (check them out ASAP).  Static is a catchy track that you'll have a hard time geting off repeat, so be sure to add it to your weekend playlists!







Bendix Mihle is definitely a very classy producer. He's been touching up tons of vintage disco/funk tracks in just the right way. His edit of the ''Put Your Hands Together'' by the O' Jays is simply bliss (smooth synths and classy rhythms)







Being the esotoric blogger I am, I feel inclined to show you this banger future-house track I stumbled upon earlier this week. Chris Lake is a champ, in every sense of the word. His remix of SNBRN's ''California'' is flat out beast...If you are human, then you will dance to this- such is the beauty of universally great tracks. Be sure to play this at some point at whatever parties/events you're going to this weekend--your friends and family (and haterz?! lol) will thank you.






One of our favorite synth producers, Kris Menace, has also just come out with a brand new remix for Audio District's ''Run Through the Street's.. The track brims with creative, uplifting, almost spiritual synths. Expect what you typically expect from Kris Menace: gold. 






And the last track I want to show you guys is just as beautiful as the first. Solarris's remix of ''Retrograde'' by James Blake needs no explanation... What it really needs is a nice, thorough listen. I haven't heard indie-disco this creative since...since ever...Solarris is definitely on to something, and trust me, he will be going places in future, so be sure to keep an eye on him.

The Other Tribe: I Can Give You Anything

The Other Tribe has been on our radar for a long time now. We've been fans ever since we heard ''We Should Be Dancing'' a while back. What makes The Other Tribe so unique is the sheer depth of their music- their lyrics complement their sound perfectly (think GLOVES and his remix of Van She's  ''Changes''). 

The Other Tribes' latest release is rather interesting. ''I Can Give You Anything'' features classy synth and even classier vocals. A true gem, just waiting to be found. Be sure to give the track a spin below, and definitely throw some love at The Other Tribe here.

Generik Ft. Nicky Van She: The Weekend

Cool has a new sound! ‘Tour Of Cool’ connoisseur GENERIK has taken time out from his International highflying lifestyle, as professional party starter, to invest in his passion for the music that drives his life. Generik’s maiden voyage into the studio is a colossal collab with Nicky Van She, frontman for one of Disco Unchained's favorite synth-bands, "Van She". It’s aptly titled "The Weekend", features Nicky Van She on vocals, and is coming out on ONELOVE for the World.
A joyous story of parties lived and loved, wild adventures celebrated and savored, "The Weekend" hotwires hyperactive house with euphoric ‘90s rave piano, a sleek guitar solo and Nicky Van She on vocals. Naturally, the track was born on a bender, which started in a London pub and spilled back to Nicky’s house to all hours. “Nicky started singing the vocal into his phone on the train home,” recalls Generik Tyson. “We got home and started banging out the piano chords and the core of the track was made.”

Nervo- Sunshine Thru Rain Clouds (GENERIK & NICKY NIGHT TIME REMIX)- Exclusive Premiere July 2014

We remember thinking how awesome it would be if someone did a really cool remix of Nervo's "Sunshine Thru Rain Clouds" (when it was released earlier this year). Lucky for us, one of our favorite new artists, Nicky Night Time (AKA former Van She front-man Nick Routledge), along with Generik decided to take a spin at the track.

And what a spin it was. Nicky Night Time's edit of "Sun Shine Thru Rain Clouds" is both nostalgic and fresh, encompassing sounds from the late 70s and early 90s. The track plays on the best snippets from the original, and manages to give Nervo's house anthem a very funky twist. Be sure to support Nicky Night Time/Generik along with our friends at One Love Music here! 

Warning: Not Intended For Those With Poor Taste In Music


Nicky Night Time.

Introducing Nicky Night Time: the new alias of a fabled dancefloor name (or several) you know very well. Nicky Night Time is Nick Routledge, aka Nicky Van She frontman, co-founder and producer of the band Van She (One of Disco Unchained's original favorites).
"Everybody Together" was released about a month ago by our friends at One Love Music. The track's influences are varied: From 90s piano house to pop and soul, this is a dancefloor ready, house hit that delivers a fresh take on staid house clichês and is inspired by the musical craft of old soul legends. Definitely be sure to give this gem a listen, and be sure to follow and support Nicky Night Time here!
