Introducing :: Computer Club ::

Mike Diasio AKA :: Computer Club :: is the producer responsible for some of the heaviest/hardest electro/disco/house coming out of LA. He describes his sound as "heavy, distortion-tinged .. electro house" and we LOVE it !!

He is getting alot of blog buzz after his recent collaboration with Frankmuzik on latest track "Losing Streak" where Diasio's heavy distorted basslines are a perfect match for Vince's sweet, melodic vocal.

His remixes are also worth their weight in gold, including his version of Human Leagues classic, "Don't You Want Me" finding its way into underground electro club nights across the globe.

As well as writing and producing, Diasio is a well-accomplished DJ, having played a steady stream of gigs, traveling to every corner of North America with regular stops in New York City, San Francisco and everywhere in between.

He is currently living in London, working in videography, graphic design and when he has a spare minute, he is writing for his (as yet untitled) debut album.

'Our Now' is the perfect first single from this youngster, combinging a strong 80s influence with heartfelt emotion.

This heartfelt 80s synthpop runs throughout his myspace player with tracks such as 'I Need It All' and 'Teenagers' proving he is no one trick pony... its fair to say, we can expect big things.

Introducing :: Monarchy ::

There is a sense of mystery about Monarchy. No-one seems to know much about them other than they are a duo from London who create beautifully slick French Disco/ElectroPop :: and lets be honest thats all that really matters ::

Not content with making slick ElectroPop to die for, they have been remixing the likes of 'Fyfe DangerField' (Guillemots) on ELO-esque 'She Needs Me' and New York's own 'Penguin Prison'.

With tracks like 'The Phoenix Alive' and 'Black, The Colour of My Heart', Monarchy sit comfortably between 'Hot Chip' and 'Mika' (not a bad place to be at all).

Its fair to say that we are gonna hear much more from Monarchy over the coming months... and maybe find out who this mysterious duo are.
