:: June Tunes ::

Here’s a quick list of some hot new dance tracks that are set for greatness this summer and that have already featured heavily in my own sets.

Supermode ‘Tell me Why’ – You’ve probably heard this track by now as every DJ I know has picked up on this release from leading dance label, Data Records (part of Ministry Of Sound). Sampling the 80’s iconic band Bronski Beat, this track builds into a real thumper and is a terrific sounding, simple piece of dance music from top DJ's Axwell & Angello. I've already sung their praises elsewhere on this blog, so I won't be too gushing about their genius skillz. Expect a gaggle of remixes to follow when this gets released. I wonder if Bronski will reform?

Dannii Minogue ‘So Under Pressure’ – I’ll admit that I groaned when this arrived, but I loved it as soon as I slapped it onto the platter. The Soul Seekerz are doing the knob-twiddling again for Dannii and this could well be another chart success for the partnership.

Teamsters ‘Feels Like Love’ – This has been floating around for a month and working brilliantly everytime I play it. In fact, it is now filed in the ‘floorfiller’ section within my record bag, as it seems to guarantee a good response and fill the dancefloor with a gaggle of happy chicks everytime it gets played.

Rogue Traders ‘Voodoo Child’ – Already a hit in their native Australia, the Rogue Traders get a UK release in time to cash in on our summer vibe. I’m in no doubt that this will go down a storm in Ibiza. This could possibly be one of the key tracks for this summer.

Andy Cato ‘La Luna’ – A bit more underground than the other tracks I’ve reviewed here, but still embedded deep within the world of house music. Andy Cato is from Groove Armada and he doesn’t normally do choons like this but he damn well should! It’s a slick piece of house music that shows how a dance track can be so much more than a 4/4 drum pattern. ‘La Luna’ builds and builds and builds into an accomplished creation and it’s gaining great audience reaction. This months top tune by a mile.

Tune in to my radio shows to hear more upfront music. That's all for now. Catch ya all later.
