Milano Sun shed their summer skin on their latest track “Scandinavia.” The Swedish trio are no stranger to new wave, having dashed a sprinkle of it onto last year’s balearic anthem “Vertigo.” They seriously upped the dosage this time around, however, toning down the sun-drenched instrumentals in favor of retro synths and reverb-heavy vocals. That’s not to say the old Milano Sun is gone, though; “Scandinavia” still packs some explosive pop power in its chorus. The band has paired the track with a mysterious monochrome video, which you can watch above.

“Scandinavia” appears on Milano Sun’s six-track EP of the same name, which also includes earlier singles “Vertigo” and “Already Gone.” Stream it below.

Say Yes Dog are looking to get a slice of that balearic pie. Hailing from exotic Luxembourg, the trio’s funky brand of band-backed nu-disco pop sounds like a cross between Hot Chip and just about the entire Future Classic (Classixx, Flight Facilities, Panama) roster. Their latest single, “Get It,” is a fantastic primer on their style. Stream it below and stay tuned for their debut EP later this year.

On the 31st of December 2012, after decades of sending radio waves into space, astronomers received a strange signal from the Alpha Centauri system. What at first appeared to be a random stream of tones and pulses gradually resolved into a complex pattern, that while alien, seemed eerily familiar. Dubbed “Silverstar” the signal was sent to research teams worldwide, for further analysis.

…or so goes Silverstar‘s bio, a two-man production team hailing from down under. The Australian duo’s debut single, “Music Is Magic,” is just about everything you can ask for in dance music. Sure to satisfy everyone from the occasional indie convert to the most devout of nu-disco disciples, Silverstar’s first jump into the scene is a slice of synth and sample heaven. And don’t forget to check out the video for the track — directed by Tim White and filmed on location in Morocco — above.

After its premiere as Pete Tong’s “Essential New Tune” on BBC Radio 1 last year, this lovely track from New Yorker Chris Malinchak sent ripples through the electronic music world, gradually reaching over one million YouTube audio hits on the strength of its stripped back, soulful sound and optimistic energy.

On Friday, venerable UK dance label Ministry of Sound unveiled an official video for “So Good to Me” in advance of the track’s May 5th single release. The clip, which follows a little girl in pursuit of her lost pet giraffe, mirrors the straightforward positivity of this Marvin Gaye-sampling hopeful house ballad. Watch it above.

Wax Nostalgic first serenaded our earballs with his gorgeous remix of Local Natives’ “Who Knows Who Cares” back in December. It became an instant favorite, clocking in at number two on our best remixes of 2012 list. Today, David Hayes has done his best to try to bring some California over to his hometown of Toronto with a remix of Goldroom’s poolside mood-setter “Sweetness Alive.” Hayes accentuates Say Lou Lou‘s breezy vocals on his take while deconstructing the more up-tempo instrumental elements of the original, smoothing the track out to create the musical equivalent of the ‘Toaster’ Instagram filter. That’s a compliment.

Have a listen below, and be sure to grab tickets to see Goldroom play LIVE — that’s right, a full live band — at All Things Gold on April 11th at U Street Music Hall.

In January we featured “Dream Of Bombay,” a bubbly synth-pop number from ATG favorites Viceroy and Chela. While it continues to climb the Hype Machine charts, up-and-coming Mexican producer Bufi has remixed the track into one of the more satisfying pieces of disco house we’ve heard all year. The 21-year-old wünderkind from Mexico City slowly unfolds a dazzling array of kinetic synths and pin-sharp rhythms over the course of this six-minute sonic odyssey, aptly described by Gotta Dance Dirty as a case of “interstellar disco and Hawaiian shirts in space.” The spellbinding, euphoric production has already landed itself firmly in cosmic territory by the time Chela’s lovely vocals grace the mix.

Last month we featured Pyramid’s shapeshifting track “Wolf,” an exciting glimpse of his new joint So Far Gone EP with fellow Parisian Lauren Crayon. Kitsuné is billing the duo as “the two spearheads of the new generation of French producers.” The EP features two pieces the artists arranged independently, as well as two collaborative efforts. The title track, which falls into the latter category, is a lovely uplifting number that combines bouncy, staccato laptop funk à la Breakbot with classic progressive house in the style of Paul Van Dyk and Armin van Buuren. Stream it below.

Du Tonc is a brand new supergroup featuring London producer Mighty Mouse and Matt Van Schie, founding member of the formidable Aussie electropop ensemble Van She. Du Tonc’s debut single, “Darkness,” is a big, beautifully arranged cosmic disco odyssey that heralds exciting things to come from the duo, who met in the basement of Paris Social Club back in 2010. The track merges ultramodern electronics with baby-making basslines and smoldering funk guitar riffs, a recipe evoking indie dance heavyweights like St. Lucia and Jai Paul.

Du Tonc’s “Darkness” is out now on UK label Cheap Thrills, who promise more from the duo later this year.

London’s Disclosure and AlunaGeorge are the newest darlings of the internet these days, so a collaboration between the two was only inevitable. Thankfully, it arrived yesterday in the form of “White Noise.” The track highlights the duos’ strengths, with Aluna Francis’ smooth-as-butter vocals building off Disclosure’s fluid, minimalist instrumental backbone. “White Noise” is a bit of a transcendental track; it wouldn’t be out of place pumped through speakers at an underground club in London twenty years ago or the headphones of a nu-disco lover in 2013.

“White Noise” is just a taste of what’s to come from the two promising groups as they prep their debut full-lengths, a seemingly solid indication that we’re in for a treat in both cases.

Francisco Dávalos (AKA Bronx) wowed us over the summer with his lush, prismatic rework of Mariah Carey’s “I’ll be Loving You”. Now, a stellar remix of “Weak Knees” by London singer-songwriter Miss Bee gives us even more reason to consider this 20-year old wünderkind one of the most promising emerging nu-disco artists. Davalos’ music features bouncy, staccato synth runs and slow-mo arpeggios that call to mind Finnish producers like Lenno, Michael Cassette and Jay Lamar & Jesse Oliver (fittingly, the latter have lent their mastering expertise to Bronx releases). Transpose the futuristic funkiness of that distinctive Finnish nu-disco sound — developed in frigid Helsinki — to the more temperate climes of Davalos’ native Mexico and you begin to get an idea of the Bronx aesthetic. It’s no surprise that this remix was featured on Zimmer’s December Hide With Me tape, as Bronx’s languid, carefree tropicalia is right at home alongside the “horizontal disco” favored by the Parisian DJ. “Weak Knees” is out now on Lou Teti’s Brooklyn-based label, Tigers On A Leash.
