Too hot to handle...



Ok...it's time for this week's finest local cuts, which are actually last week's finest local cuts because I'm writing this on Monday, but posting it on Saturday if that makes any sense? Anyway, four tunes that have erupted from Soundcloud like a great electrical storm wreaking havoc on a balmy summer's night...or something to that affect.

LOCAL HERO:

The title of Local Hero this week goes to a producer/DJ by the name of Quahaze, who along with Math.You is a resident at new night Nuke The Moon which is launching 3rd Nov at the Flying Duck. Here he takes us on a journey of self enlightenment as the composition of life is laid bare before us over a down tempo disco groove which compliments the insightful vocal. Sunday afternoon material.

Next up,Killer Kitsch resident and promoter Euan Neilson is back under his Warschauer guise and this time he's gone 'wobble-core' on your ass. I'm sure he won't like me saying this but it has a flavour of Deadmau5 getting his electro-rod out and prodding you in the face with it. Add to that a searing vocal sample and you've got potential for mutiny on the dancefloor.

Chromeo are back and with new album 'Business Casual' delivering a collection of sex dripping electro flavas to get down with it's no wonder Spectrum resident and good friend of Synth, Aymard wanted a bit of the action. Here he re-edits 'You Make It Rough', injecting it with a hint of super-funk for the dancefloor and leaving you decidedly sweaty in the process.

Finally, Hologram Hookers get another flaming remix on new single 'Touched Up', this time from Digital Stitch, who for all intent & purposes has created a disfigured monster that creeps up on you like Nosferatu at a swingers party (honestly don't know how I come up with this stuff). A shuddering bassline and razor sharp synths combine to make this pretty heavyweight material.
