We’ve put up a couple tunes on the site before, I never personally knew you, but from what everyone’s saying you were one of the most genuine people. Rest in Peace. I was fortunate to catch you in the City of Angels a couple times, you always put on the best show. Thank you for sharing yourself with us.

Dramatic Break Down

Heyo Boppers.

-

Our first track is a remix by French House master Surkin. This is a sexy chopped up version of Para One’s Midnight Swim. It is quite fun and features a dramatic break down and build in the middle. This track got a lot of play when it was new and is still worth hearing! Check out Marble Players for more Para One x Surkin (x Bobmo).

Para One – Midnight Swim (Surkin Drowning Mix)

-

Another track from “around” the same time… a remix by 80s remix master, Lifelike of indie electro/punk duo The Presets. Its a fairly simple in execution show casing thin reverb laden instrumentation. A great example of Lifelike’s production work when he’s not just doing a regular dance single.

The Presets – This Boy’s In Love (Lifelike Remix)

-

Also, don’t forget to check out my single SLUG available for free in WAV format exclusively through Broken Synth! Preview it below and get it HERE!

Until next time!

Opposites Attract

Yo Boppers.

mercurius fm mondays  Opposites Attract

Here’s a post with some house & techno classics. First up we have a techno banger from 1997 by CZR. Its a simple ghetto track and goes pretty hard. The beat is still fresh, especially these days with artists like Congorock and Diplo. Definitely check this out.

CZR – For Your Ass

-

Finally, we have a track by Together aka Thomas Bangalter & DJ Falcon. Fans of this site shouldn’t need an introduction to either. This track comes from the early 2000s when loopy sampled disco choruses were all the rage… well I guess they still are (quack). Check out this huge track for a bit of history..

Thomas Bangalter & DJ Falcon – So Much Love To Give

Until next time!

Synthy & Sexy

Word up Boppers.

mercurius fm mondays 5989434556 fa1a4a7a66 Synthy & SexyArt by Melissa B in Toronto

-

Starting off today with a track off of Basement Jaxx’s second EP from way back in ’95. It has a lot of the things that make us love Basement Jaxx including lots of harmonies, strings, and a jazzy housey feel.

Basement Jaxx – Be Free

-

Next, we have a synthy and sexy track by Lil Louis. If you like tracks by artists like Alan Braxe and Fred Falke, then definitely check this out. This is more or less the precursor to that sound in House format.

Lil’ Louis & The World – French Kiss

-

Finally, I’d like to announce on here my next single is called SLUG. Its a gnarly techno track coming out on a new music project called Broken Synth. Go to their website to preview the upcoming track and learn more.

Until next time!

Direct Drive

Hey Boppers.

mercurius fm mondays  Direct Drive

Today we’ll cover some oldies but goodies. What better than a Cajmere remix… This one is of Dajaé, a singer he produced for several times. As per usual, the Cajmere remix is a darker and more abstract version of the original. Quite classic sounding.

Dajaé – U Got Me Up (Cajmere’s Underground Goodie Remix)

-

Next up we have some filtered French goodness. This a vinyl only release by Sebastien Leger from 2001. This particular track is really fun and easy to play out. Enjoy.

Sebastien Leger – Direct Drive

Until next time!
