CFCF - Cometrue / Looking So 12"


Thanks to The Fader and Altered Zones/Yours Truly, we are now blessed with both sides of CFCF's new 12", out now on UNO. "Cometrue" finds the Montreal producer returning to the land of expertly-crafted piano house, while "Looking So" is a sultry slice of what we might call future R&B. Buy the 12" here or the digital version here.

CFCF Mix for Last Gas Station


Montreal producer CFCF made a mix for the lovable Last Gas Station, and it's pretty much "killin' it" right now, to use the language of SXSW. (Can you tell I'm bitter I'm not there?) Anyway, like CFCF's own music and the plethora of other mixes he's made, these are some chilled-out dance, R&B and rap songs with some serious grooves to them. Featuring Asobi Seksu, Burial, Creep, Tangerine Dream, The Weekend and many more. Also has "Whispers," which appears to be a brand new CFCF song. All told, highly recommended listening.

Harald Grosskopf - Synthesist


I heard Harald Grosskopf's "Synthesist" while catching up on the always-amazing 20jazzfunkgreats.  I was instantaneously awestruck by its elegant and simple beauty, each oscillation of sound unfurling itself and stretching ever upwards towards the heavens.  When I came to learn that "Synthesist" is the title track to Grosskopf's 1980 album, I was saddened I hadn't been listening all along.  Thankfully, RVNG Intl. is putting the finishing touches on what promises to be a beatifully arranged reissue, due February 15.  A bonus disc features reinterpretations from personal favorites Blondes, CFCF and Oneohtrix Point Never.  Listen to "Synthesist" below; find more info, music samples and pre-order here

DyE - Fantasy (CFCF Remix)


Montreal producer CFCF just uploaded this chilled-out remix of DyE's "Fantasy."  The original exists on the eerie, emotive end of the electro-pop scale, but it's busier, if not downright spastic.  CFCF takes the "less is more" approach, slowing down the song and smoothing out its production, while retaining the original's eerily beautiful aura.  The result is a softly-building slow burner that reminds me a bit of Banjo Or Freakout.  Listen to the CFCF remix and the original below.  Both are part of the DyE's Fantasy EP, available digitally through Beatport and iTunes, which also features remixes from Clement Meyer, Remote and Jackpot.  On Tigersushi Records.
