Blending Electronica, Synthpop and Disco into one almost lubricious musical concoction, with a dash of Punk, will give you a particular strand of dance music, frequently referred to as Indie-Dance. And although we use the term “dance music” with hesitation, as they are quite clearly songs, with intricate lyrics and the typical verse, bridge, chorus structure of a song most of the times, they also make you dance quite effortlessly; Flamboyantly with moving hips and bent wrists in some cases and jumping around ferociously in other.
Chela – “Romanticise”
A great debut release by what seems to be a very promising new artist. Released by Paris-based Kitsune Maison on August 26, “Romanticise” is sweet, catchy and slightly melancholic.
Surahn – “Wonderful” (Aeroplane Remix)
A great remix by Aeroplane, featured on Surahn’s Wonderful EP which was release for digital on September 24.
Holy Ghost! – “Dumb Disco Ideas”
Disco at its best! “Dumb Disco Ideas” is the swinging single from the new Holy Ghost! album Dynamics, released on September 10.
Yacht – “Party at the NSA”
Rocking a little harder, “Party at the NSA” is Yacht’s latest track. Wild, rebellious and the most contemporary incarnation of the Punk spirit, hell yeah!
MAS YSA – “Why”
On the more emotional side, “Why” is the debut single of MAS YSA, nomadic composer Thomas Arsenault’s new project. Something tells me that we’ll be hearing much more of MAS YSA.
