Tales of Us – The new album from Goldfrapp

Posted on June 11, 2013 by Mark

Due to land in early September, the new album from electronic duo Goldfrapp sounds like the best of their astral debut Felt Mountain and the psychedelic classic Seventh Tree blended into a unique signature sound. This teaser trailer is the first taste, and I’ll be reporting from the live album reveal show in Manchester later in July, July, July. Hop on over to High Tunes, my music blog for a sneak preview of the album….

Also, check out my Totem mix of Thea here, one of the stand out tracks from the album

Tinkerbell meets Slade.

Just in case you missed this, it’s my remix of Goldfrapp’s Xmas record. It was a bit Karen Carpenter when I found it shivering in the corner of a Starbucks compilation CD, so I made it a bit more bold and Bassey. It’s a Wonderful Life!

Winter Wonderland!

Posted on December 8, 2012 by Mark

My version of Goldfrapp’s only Christmas record beefs up the original with big drums, a bouncing bass and a choir. I even threw in some tubular bells and a quote from It’s a Wonderful Life. It’s a moving Christmas card! Festive frolics to everyone who follows The Vibes.

New from Goldfrapp

Big things are ready to roll for Goldfrapp this year, with Melancholy Sky lighting the fuse this week and a Singles Compilation to follow in February. Currently working on a new album, which I have a sneaking suspicion will echo the best of Felt Mountain and Seventh Tree, Goldfrapp found time to slip this remix of Strict Machine through Pete Tong’s letterbox. More launch pad than rocket, it’s a bouncy mix, with stripped back vocals, aching with cool and probably their most credible visit to the dance floor yet.

Strict Machine (Jamie Jones mix)

Melancholy Sky (with a cool fan-made video to go with it)

Also released as a teaser, the sublime slow burner Yellow Halo complete with dreamy video

Check out my Vibe-O-scope to hear the original version of Strict Machine, complete with freaky video

Happy Christmas!

The original version of Goldfrapp’s Winter Wonderland sounded unfinished. I finished it with a choir, bells and big drums. Tinkerbell meets Slade. I also added extra whistling and a quote from It’s a Wonderful Life at the end. I think it’s Animal from The Muppets on drums…enjoy and have a great Christmas.
