London’s Russ Chimes and France’s Anoraak are both huge names for anyone with smooth love for 80s disco revival and chilhood nostalgia. Both being Kunk’s previous dj guests, I was super-excited to see that they together made an effort to transform Circlesquare’s Dancers. Not new news but still, feeling compelled to write about it. We haven’t written anything about Circlesquare yet, time to make up for the mistake. Circlesquare is a guy, Jeremy Shaw, who moved from Vancouver to Berlin lately. He made a lot of stuff I’m not familiar with but his album this year, Songs About Dancing and Drugs, is highly anticipated by some. His music is dark, melancholic, sexy and minimal. Not like proper “minimal” but feels like dry, simple and tense. Imagine shoegaze mixed with post-punk in an electronic package. So when you mix it with Valerie’s naive-aesthetics, you get a really interesting result. Thanks for the track goes to BigStereo.
