During the wintermonths Danny Mommens and Els Pynoo from Vive La Fête have worked together with electro producer Dan Lacksman in his studio Synsound.

The first result from this cooperation is the new VLF single Hot Shot, which will be released on maxi vinyl on April 11th. Hot Shot is described as kitch-pop electro-rockpunkfunk track. The second track on the maxi is VLF’s remix of Lio’s hit Banana split. On the B-side, you can find the clubby Shot mix of Hot Spot.

The fourth album of Vive La Fête has been finished too. It’ll be released on May 9th. More info later!

Sometime you might think that Belgium dance is all about commercial trance / house, but it is clear that this small country has a lot more to offer. Just listen to Vive la fête, Magnus. And now, Nid & Sancy (referring to Sex Pistols’ Sid Vicious and his girlfriend Nancy) from Ghent release their new album upon the unexpecting masses. Talk to the machine indeed.

After being exclusively hyped on belgian radio Studio Brussel for a while (radio, parties, …), Shameboy – Rechoque has finally been released on vinyl!

Shameboy is a new project around Luuk Cox, drummer of the Buscemi project. Together with Mr. Morceau (memeber of Squadra Bossa) and Jimmy Dewit (aka DJ Bobby Ewing, Discobar Galaxy) they have produced a very catchy dancetrack with phat beats and blended it with today’s very popular 80’s electro synths.

On the vinyl you can find: Rechoque (Radio edit), Rechoque (Full version) and Luis. More info can be found at Lowlands site or click here for soundsamples!.
