Ardyn – ‘Together’

The new single from English duo is produced by Tourist and has a lovely soft-rock Fleetwood Mac vibe in the chorus. One for the re-spin.

2.

Jafaris – ‘If You Love Me’

One of four tracks released today on Dubliner Jafaris’ new EP Velvet Cake. ‘If You Love Me’ is the instant standout for me, from a talented young man who is on the up.

Mix & Fairbanks – ‘Girls’

Mix & Fairbanks are two young Kildare producers and DJs Rob Smyth and Gary O’Reilly who in a short time have been nailing electronic disco productions in a live setting, via DJ edits, remixes and mixes.

‘Girls’ the Mix & Fairbanks song from the EP is an absolute dancefloor stomper, a synth-rush tune that melds the bouncing pinging synth of ‘Inspector Norse’ with a Daft Punk style vocoder robot vocal. I can’t stop playing it and I’m going to be playing it all summer long.

Along with other Newbridge, Kildare crew, they feature on the 045 Recordings EP out now and launching at Lumo this Saturday

Jessy Lanza and Morgan Geist team up as The Galleria

Morgan Geist (Metro Area) and Jessy Lanza (Hyperdub and Caribou collaborator on Our Love) have collaborated on The Galleria, inspired by New Jersey shopping malls, New York radio stations, “bombastic freestyle, club dubs, razor-edits and bubblegum-pop R&B”.

The project manifests itself in a fine four track EP of electronic synth pop with an ’80s feel, two originals in ‘Calling Card’ and “Mezzanine’ with a dub version of each track. They call it ” a dancefloor-friendly dub with plenty of jump-cuts for the forward-thinking nostalgic.”

Lanzy has also collaborated with DJ Teklife.
