Joe Goddard – 'Taking Over'
Josh shared 'Step Together,' the infectious dance track produced by Boris Dlugosch from Joe Goddard's Taking Over EP earlier this year. The title track, 'Taking Over,' is a much sweeter affair, showcasing Goddard's soothing vocals over a languid guitar riff and soft synths.
Ejeca – 'Together'
If you've been reading this column for a while, you know that piano-house is probably my favorite genre, so it should come as no surprise that Ejeca's latest release instantly gained my appeal. 'Together' stays true to form with a high-pitched vocal sample and cascading piano keys, making it a valiant follow up to his summer fan favorite, 'Rosario.'
Pional – Invisible Ameneza
Migel Barros, a.ka. Barcelona's Pional, is back with a new solo track after his previous collaborations with fellow country man John Talabot. Invisible/Amenaza, the title track from his new EP, has the elements of a brilliant 80s floor-filler, a churning bassline, bubbling synths and an echoing vocal sample. I expect the song to become an instant DJ favorite much like Barros' previous releases.
OCCUPY THE DISCO (OXD) curates and recommends music events to the gay community in NYC—in an effort to move the focus of the nightlife scene beyond the promoter and venue and to the music itself. OXD's goal is to educate, entertain, engage and empower the gay audience to reclaim their ability to question and experience the unknown. The OXD Mirror will serve to showcase tunes that are definitely off-the-beaten-path but rightfully deserve the attention of the gay ear.
This week's post was written and curated by Ru Bhatt. Check out more of his music picks on his podcast, The Ru-Mix and on Made In Brazil.
