Mofo Hifi label buddy and fellow fan of all things filthy and electronic, Sharooz, ain’t one to stay still for very long. Evident in this, the latest from his vaults, somewhere mid-London via Miami.
As the debut for his new label, La Bombe, Sharroz has demonstrated how firmly his ear is stuck to the (dance)floor. Getting much-hyped Miami wunderkind, SonicC, to give his forthcoming cut, ‘Saccharin‘, a damn good roughing-up is a touch. And one that hasn’t gone unnoticed in blogspehere. With the likes of Discodust, GottaDanceDirty, and Louis Louis all chomping at the bit to post the remix ahead of the game, this ‘high-rising’ sonic punch in the face gives La Bombe it’s first point on the score-card.

When we ain’t busting it hard with a fat bassline, we like things a bit deeper here at TYP HQ. Surfacing towards the end of last year and already boasting an array of taste-maker DJ/blog support, dadahack is a new cross-country production duo made up from 1-part James Banbury (based in UK) and 1-part Pete Davis (based in Sweden). The first material they have teased out under their dadahack moniker is a 5-track EP called ‘Hellos’; a heady mix of house, nu-disco, electro and sleaze.
The lead track ‘Hello Dust’ features vocals from Hannah Robinson, but for me it’s all about the sensational 11-minute gritty electro workout from Freelance Hellraiser that never ceases to tires my ears.

The ‘Hellos’ EP drops ahead of a clutch of forthcoming remixes and new tracks from the duo, paving the way for a dadahack album due for release in the next coming months. The full ‘Hellos’ EP bundled with alternative remixes by håkan lidbo and Tranquility Bass can be purchased in high quality via the dadahack homepage.
A band that i’m keen to raise to your attention this week is the magnificent Kish Mauve.
Kish Mauve – aka vocalist Mima and producer Jim Eliot – gained recognition for their shimmering but sultry brand of electro pop when they wrote and produced Kylie’s phenomenal ‘2 Hearts’, the cherry-picked lead single from her much loved comeback album ‘X’. Jim is also responsible for producing the recent Rosie & The Goldbug’s album.

With their Kylie casino chips well in the bag, the duo are now set to release their very own unique blend of seductive pop noir, starting with the twisted dance-floor filler ‘Lose Control’, which features Ladyhawke’s very own Pip Brown on the geetars.
For me it’s all about the club mixes and the remix package i have for ‘Lose Control’ includes; Michael Morph, Neoteric, and Superbass. But the two stand-out mixes are Fred Falke’s, and something altogether more noisy from Chewy Chocolate Cookies. Two quality names, two quality mixes; need i say more.. enjoy!
