Disco Friday: Electrico "Love In New Wave" (Aldrien & Akien Rmx)

Electrico is a really fun band from Singapore who have had moderate success with their invigorating indie pop sound in East Asia and Australia. Singapore DJs Aldrien & Akien produced a great electro house mix of Electrico's lead single "Love In New Wave" that has been distributed on vinyl by small Italian dance label Cosmo Note. The track is taken from the group's self-financed debut "Hip Nation" that was recently picked up by Universal.

Aldrien and Akien are arguably two of the most popular DJs in Singapore with regular stints at dance palace Zouk. Electrico's singer David Tan (who is also a DJ) asked the duo to create a mix of the song so that he could it play as part of his own sets. Aldrien en Akien were so pleased with the result that they sent it to Pete Tong who has added it to his influential "Essential" playlist, giving Electrico worldwide recognition. The track is not available on iTunes but you can buy it in high-def MP3 format on BeatPort (search for Electrico).
