The duo Death Team, Mayka Edd and Johan Tilli, have released their debut EP, “Death Team Loves You”, from which you can enjoy a few tracks here below. It’s an irresistible collection of electropop songs where they use much of their palette of naive cheekiness, playfulness, humour and sincerity. You can smile at the images they paint or just dance away without thinking about anything. They don’t complicate things, and I often recognize the melody hooks and the sounds, but still they sound like nobody else.
Axel Wikner is 16 years old and produces dance music, mostly house but also some odd genres like moombahton. Not my cup of tea usually, but I felt for a diversion today. Axel started playing around with music software last year, but after he discovered that his music was being played on clubs it took a more serious direction. He has now released a couple of singles and the EP “Modern Talking”. Here’s the latest song, “Sub Bomb”.
Million Faces is the name of a new house duo, who today released the song “Dreams Are Waiting” (That African Song)”, a happy and catchy pop tune you can listen to here below. I don’t know much more about these mask-wearing gentlemen right now, more than that they are working with John Ballard, the same man who discovered Ace of Base during the nineties.
So far I haven’t presented that much dance-beats here on the blog, but something made me stop for the duo Paaniq’s debut EP “Heads In the Ditch”, which was released during summer. Hard to explain, maybe it’s the special atmosphere in the songs, or the good melodies, the dynamics and the variations or the attitude in their dance-pop-electronica. It’s impossible also to resist the line “Chuck Norris is like gravity – don’t fuck with it!” in the song which bears the actor’s name. Listen for yourself on one of the songs here below.
Today will be electronica day here on Meadowmusic, together with Anto. It’s about dance and like he describes it:
“Crazy electro music combined with nostalgic sounds. Arcadegame melodies or 80’s synth-pop sounds.. It’s like travelling back in time but also into the future at the same time so the music touches you in many different ways”.
Anto produces his own instrumental dance tracks but also quite a few remixes, as he often is contacted by other artists about remixes. Especially I liked his remix of “Taken”, a song by the german indie-electronica band Digitalism, where the vocals mixed with Anto’s disco-heavy music makes a really cool combination.
