BeatauCue + Polymath



BeatauCue's first full length EP was released on Monday on the french fashion and record label Kitsune. The french duo's tunes have been doing the rounds a fair bit recently, most notably their raved up remix of Noob & Brodinski's Peanuts Club released last year, and of Major Lazer's Pon De Floor.
They've also managed to blag a spot on the Kontact Me Remixes EP, released next monday on Boys Noize Records.

Here's a fun remix of Pony Pony Run Run...
Pony Pony Run Run - Walking On A Line (BeatauCue Remix)


BeatauCue - Cha Cha Cha EP
1. Cha Cha Cha
2. Wolves
3. Bus
4. Cha Cha Cha (Daniel Haaksman Remix)
5. Cha Cha Cha (DJA Remix)
6. Wolves (Sharkslayer Remix)
7. Wolves (Willnez Gre Remix)

I've got to admit that I'm not overly impressed by the title track. It's got a firm beat but the main drop, incorporating quite a full on synth line and a choppy sample (One of beataucue's favourite remixing techniques...) just doesn't really grab my attention much. The remixes don't add a great deal either.

The second track, Wolves, is for all those bass addicts out there. The drop is heavy, with a similar sound to that in Acid Girls' "Numbers Song". Same can be said of the remixes, all very heavy, with the Willnez Gre remix adding a mild Fidget element to the mix.

More to my taste is the third track on the EP: Bus. Once again plenty of vocal samples, hung drawn and quartered as per their usual, but this time accompanied by a much lighter disco style rhythm. Whilst there aren't any remixes of this featured on the EP, I stumbled upon this quality remix by Polymath yesterday as well, no release date yet but a definite keeper.

Haven't really heard much about the Inverness based producer, but here's a tidy remix he's done of Quentin Dupieux's (a.k.a. Mr. Oizo) Pourriture 7. Makes it a whole lot more danceable, which is always a good thing. Thanks to scottishfriction.com for the original post.
