The Broken Hearts – Black Cat

bc0

Because I’m going through withdraws of not hearing any new music from one of my favorite artists, Whitey (see previous post here and here), I bring this Whitey produced track for the duo know as The Broken Hearts.

The Broken Hearts are a DJ Duo (Nisha Thirkell and Amber Jane Butchart) with showmanship to the hilt. Their shows are mix of Burlesque,vaudeville, and French Can-can.

Formed a couple of years ago, THE BROKEN HEARTS are regular DJs at London club nights such as Stunners International,, Rakehell’s Revels, The Grill Rooms, Cafe de Paris and The Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club. Playing an upbeat, eclectic mix of 1920s oddities, ’30s – ’50s swing, ’60s girl-group pop and classic rock’n’roll, the girls have brought excitement to dance floors across the capital.

The Whitest Boy Alive – 1517 (Morgan Geist Remix)

morgangeist

The Original track can be found on the 2009 release, named “Rules”. The Whitest Boy Alive (aka Erlend Oye and friends) gets the remix treatment from the very talented Morgan Geist (one half of Metro Area). Morgan takes a striped down approach on this track with a minimal arrangement and warm bassline throughout. Erlend’s voice always seem to sit nicely within a bed of electronics, too bad his group decided to put away the synths, but alas we can always depend on a good remixers to fill the void.

Empire of the Sun – Walking on a Dream

empireofthesun

OK I have to admit I breezed by this track last year when I first took a listen to the entire Empire of the Sun album and thought it was ok, but not exactly my thing. With that said, I must have subconsciously liked it enough to have added it to my ipod and boy has this song just grown on me. The chorus just sticks and plays like a warm summer sun setting, leaving a warm glow after sunset. Spectacular.

Empire of the Sun – Walking on a Dream

lyrics:

Walking on a dream
How can I explain
Talking to myself
Will I see again

We are always running for the thrill of it thrill of it
Always pushing up the hill searching for the thrill of it
On and on and on we are calling out and out again
Never looking down I’m just in awe of what’s in front of me

Is it real now
When two people become one
I can feel it
When two people become one

Thought I’d never see
The love you found in me
Now it’s changing all the time
Living in a rhythm where the minutes working overtime

Catch me I’m falling down
Catch me I’m falling down

Don’t stop just keep going on
I’m your shoulder lean upon
So come on deliver from inside
All we got is tonight that is right till first light
