Track Descriptions:
- Jean Tonqiue – Lit Up (ft. Dirty Radio)
Fresh off Yusek’s label Partyfine, this nu disco track by the one and only Parisian producer gives us fresh life into the genre. Using multi-instruments, Jean Tonqiue creates funky grooves that have our shoulders swaying!
Best lyric: “I’m Lit up, approaching midnight, I’m try to fight it, but it’s taken over me!”
- Rise & Fool – Maybe
It’s not everyday you see a duo made up of a guy and woman, but that’s what Rise & Fool brings to the decks. This duo from Paris provides a tremendous house track, with a dope vocal component, especially in the bridge around 3minutes in.
Best Lyric: “Give me love, and give me more time, and maybe, crazy for you”
- Goldroom – Silhouette
A Disco Ball Music favorite, Goldroom releases his first single off his new album, West Of The West. Guitar riffs and feel good house vibes make this an automatic summer hit! Once again Goldroom does not disappoint!
Best Lyric: “Without you I’m a silhouette”
- The Golden Pony – Lost Yourself (ft. JT Mak)
I’ll let the duo explain the track in their own words: “Lost Yourself’s first version was written in a cold hotel room in Vegas while in retreat from the dilapidated glamour the capital of Midwestern sin offers. It’s gone through many versions since then, and transformed into a story about emotional dishonesty (with yourself and others!), in a really amazing collaboration with J.T. Mak. It seems very on-brand to us to release our darkest-themed song ever right as summer kicks off!” – Brooklyn’s very own, The Golden Pony
Best Lyric: “ Girl you’re much better than the credit you give yourself, could you blindly open up to someone else”
- Foals – Mountain At My Gates (Alex Metric Remix)
Alex Metric’s new take on Foals latest hit is beyond words. This track delivers a perfect electro / electronica spin, using the powerful the vocals of the original to build up to a perfect release of the Alex Metric sound! Hot, hot, hot!
Best Lyric: “I see a darkness in my face, I drive my car without the breaks”
- Middle – In Your Way
Steve ‘Middle’ Stullgens, delivers a future house banger that moves you from top to bottom. Middle’s use of melodic breakdowns and kicking bass line makes this song beautiful and soulful!
Best Lyric: N/A
- Chris Clouse – We Breathe
Chris Clouse brings this week’s 3am club track, to us. “We Breathe” takes on electronic and deep house elements and blends them into a perfect concoction. Imagining this on Output speakers right now is giving me chills.
Best Lyric: “We breathe, we breathe, we breathe”
- Kraak & Smaak – So Clear (ft. Meeka Kates)
Don’t let the name fool you, this isn’t a duo, this a trio! Hailing from the Netherlands, this trio beings the summer feels in their new track “So Clear”. A very chill and relaxing house track.
Best Lyric: “Heading out in the city where the lights, she had black dress with a cigarette, drop dead from her lips to her legs”
- Franc Moody – T’s & C’s
Sounding very Roche Music like, Franc Moody brings the fire with this disco track. The track builds wonderfully, bringing me back to the good days of disco. Be on the look out later this month for our feature on Franc Moody’s first EP.
Best Lyric: N/A
- Pomelo – This Body Blur (Leo Lunel Remix)
This French house inspired track is so beautiful. The combination of the guitar strings, vocals, and horns is euphoric. Close your eyes and imagine the disco ball spinning as this track flows through the ears.
Best Lyric: “feel like falling when I touch your body, you make me forget we are two, and this body blur makes me, feel like falling”
