O.C.’s Dan Sena, former hardcore vocalist in Bullet Train to Vegas, Dim Mak alumni and lynch-pin in the Orange County dance music scene with Busywork (which, was run and residented alongside our buddy and featured artist, Clifford Lidell—formerly CASIO), has something for you to hear under a discoball.

We’ve got a couple fresh Dan Sena tracks. The first and original ditty with a disco-house vibe and some electro-house “oomph” titled ‘Panther’ that makes a brother just wanna move. Uncleared samples for some unclean dancing(!), just as the music gods—in all their purple crushed velvet glory—have intended.

Next up, a remix for Dim Mak’s Scanners which was released as a single December 8th with this Dan Sena remix alongside mixes by Tittsworth, Don Diablo and Dirty Disco Youth. The Scanners always remind me of the David Cronenberg’s 1981 flick of the same name (IMDb). There’s a scene in it that resembles what listening to these Dan Sena tunes looks like and it goes like this.

One more for good measure, because Yeah Yeah Yeah’s ‘Heads Will Roll’ is, like, song of the year, and this is a pretty good mixdown.

Dan Sena’s upcoming EP, ‘AYEMGEE’, will be out in 2010. Eyes peeled. ‘Panther’ is likely to prowl it’s way on it.

Also, keep ‘em peeled for a party Missingtoof is supporting with Dan Sena and our UK homie Sharooz in January at Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa, O.C. Keep lurking for details.

Music Go Music: ‘Warm In The Shadows’

Music Go Music

Music Go Music is a hard to categorized musical group hailing from Los Angeles. The music they create varies from creamy disco to doo-wop-rock sprinkled with a dash on pop on top. All of their tracks sound as if it was produced sometime in the late ’70s but had it been, it would have turned the whole scene of that time on it’s ear. Here’s hoping they do the same for our scene, or at the very least give it a much needed swift kick to the ribs.

‘Warm In The Shadows’ is a dark disco track which will have you swearing up and down that they somehow channeled the spirit of ABBA in the studio. This shit could turn even the hugest G into a dancing queen.

MP3: Music Go Music – Warm In The Shadows (2009)

Someone in California with a nice bank roll, book them so I can see this awesomeness, live. You can order all of Music Go Music’s 12″ series from Secretly Canadian Records. If you prefer to ingest your music digitally iTunes has your back. For fans of Memory Cassette, Skatebård, Professor Genius, ABBA & Heart.

LAZRtag gives Rhianna’s ‘Don’t Stop The Music’ an electro bitchslap felt back to 1972.

lazrtag LAZRtag gives Rhiannas Dont Stop The Music an electro bitchslap felt back to 1972.

L.A.’s LAZRtag whom we introduced last month have taken on R&B pop superstar Rhianna for some hot remix love. This is where top 40 meets bottom frequency.

I love this track because it taps into a history of music: One of borrowing, sampling, reusing, reinterpreting—’Don’t Stop the Music’ employs Michael Jackson’s famous chant from his ‘Thriller‘ album 1983 single, ‘Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’‘, which was in turn was nicked from Manu Dibango’s 1972 track, ‘Soul Makossa‘, widely regarded as the first (or among the first) disco record ever. This track is a snapshot of music culture today: LAZRtag recomposing a contemporary pop-princess’ track, who borrowed from the ’80s king of pop, who borrowed from the roots of disco, using Manu Dibango’s jazz and traditional Cameroonian music soil. How far we’ve come:

royalrumble Royal Rumble remixes Big Moves Never Lose Sight

Beverly Hills toughest streetgang, Royal Rumble grows a little more mature with their newest remix for L.A.’s indie-come-disco band, Big Moves. Big Moves get a big treatment of disco-house drum-sequences and breakdowns. Good source material makes for solid reinterpretations, so, of course, the victory is shared. Big Moves’ lyrics are turned into infections chants, backed by organic hand-claps and synth-heavy techno basslines. Even with all that and a bag of Chips Ahoy!, track retains its original and intended indie-disco-house charm.

MP3: Big Moves – Never Lose Sight (Royal Rumble Remix)

As always, folks in L.A. can catch Royal Rumble at their Sunday night weekly, Sudden Death at Vine Bar in Hollywood. Good times—all wax; no laptops! Served up by the RR and Turntable Lab crew’s Blu Jemz, among others.
