Video: Shit Robot - Take 'Em Up featuring Nancy Whang

Shit Robot has released one of my favourite dance albums of 2010 with From The Cradle To The Grave. A real treat for dance fans this year. Take 'Em Up featuring Nancy Whang of LCD Soundsystem fame on vocals in particular, is an electro disco anthem in it's itself with it's breezy vocal and synth-tastic rhythms. The video has just premiered over at Pitchfork and it was directed by fellow Irish man Eoghan Kidney who has in the past been responsible for some gorgeous video's from Somadrone and Valerie Francis and this is as equally masterful.

LCD Soundsystem 'Drunk Girls' video

LCD Soundsystem return next month with their third studio album This Is Happening and in a nutshell it's awesome. The first official single to be taken from the album is the tumultuous and brazen Drunk Girls, an all out sing-a-long from start to finish. The video is as equally raucous as the song and quite funny too.

It's safe to say James Murphy and co have come back with a bang leaving few disappointed.
You can have a listen to This Is Happening now on lcdsounsdystem.com/thisishappening



This Is Happening is out on May 14th (17th UK)on DFA Records.

Chromeo - Night By Night Video

This track has been knocking about for a couple of months but finally there is a video to go with this belter. Chromeo's Night By Night is electro disco at it's finest and the accompanying video is like Dirty Dancing in a Strictly Ballroom haze with a touch of T.J Hooker but, without the grainy 80's quality and more of a polished 00's vibe.
Skream has also done an incredible remix for this track too and is well worth checking out here.

Juan Maclean-Happy House Video

With a clever use of projections, shiny costumes and excellent choreography, Juan Maclean's video to Happy House is a work out in itself. Also it is a re-release single from his superb album The Future Will Come released earlier this year and features Nancy Whang on vocals.
Disco is making a come back but with more of a psychedelic, spacey edge as showcased recently by Emperor Machine's Kananana track and Erol Alkan's Disco 3000 podcast and DJ sets. Let's embrace it.

The Emperor Machine-Kananana video

If 70's influenced kaleidoscopic disco is your thing, then check out the video to The Emporer Machine's latest track Kananana, from his new album Space Beyond The Egg.
Andy Meecham is probably better known as one half of Chicken Lips but this is his second record as the The Emporer Machine, however, some of his remixes on their own have become dance floor and DJ favourites, notably his version of Late Of The Pier's, The Bear's Are Coming track and Juan Maclean's One Day.
