Barely a month after making his debut on AZZUR's multi-artist Bouquets Des Fleurs EP, Olaf Orbit pops up on Tom Tom Disco with his debut solo single. Title track 'Space Operator' shows that he has a firm grasp of nu-disco dynamics, with the up-and-coming producer adding spacey electronics, weirdo noises and trippy synth melodies to an arpeggio-style bassline reminiscent of New Order's 'Blue Monday'. Tony disco adds a little extra rubbery nu-disco bounce and some wonderfully deep-sounding breakdowns on his tidy remix, while bonus cut 'Olaf' is a bolder and even more synth-heavy tribute to the halcyon days of Italo-disco. As debut singles go, this is quietly impressive.

Moo Moonster - Wipe the Trance (Gameboyz remix)

@My-Favorite-Robot-Records storms into 2019 with a fantastic EP from new recruits @ConcretMusic & @Strapontin, with remixes from Zombies in Miami, Olsvanger, Mijo and Future Feelings.

Belgian producer, visual artist and performer Strapontin brings post punk, downtempo and dark disco vibes to his music. He has released on the likes of Optimo, Nein and I’m A Cliche and is also part of various collectives as well as being a busy soundtrack composer. His singular style is showcased here on two fantastic new tracks that find him link with Trafico label boss and rising production star, Concret.

‘Resilienza' is seven standout minutes of cinematic music that takes you on a real audio adventure. The mid-tempo drums are deep, and whispered vocals bring real intimacy while a rugged bassline and jumbled percussion makes you want to move. It is something that pairs darkness with melodic light and as such is a truly absorbing listen.

Cruel, feat RZF, original mix FREE DOWNLOAD

The interstellar Canadian duo blasts off with their debut EP on Emerald & Doreen. A spaghetti-western dancefloor experience to shoot you through the Stratosphere.

It all begins with Launch. Leading the charge with a growling bass line, distorted guitars and a driving rhythm. Grip tight, you're in for a rocky ride!

The real test of the takeoff comes in with Escape Velocity. Sensory overload sets in with arps out of control, a bass line pushed to its limit, and drums that won't quit. All the while accompanied by a western guitar reminder of what they are leaving back on earth.

Jason Peters takes over for 2 renditions of Escape Velocity. The Psych remix maintains the overall experience of the original but in greater depth and detail. A definite attention grabber primed for the dance floor. The hypno mix brings forth a rolling percussive groove and pad progression that will have you feeling lost amongst the stars. Reach for the lasers on this one - Safe as fuck.
