Blackjoy - Mercurian (Jupiter Remix)


It seems all my favorite new disco comes out of France these days. No big surprise really, given that in many ways it is the country where disco house originated. Here's a remix by Jupiter, a name I can't help but think was inspired by the legendary synthesizer. I know they at least have a Jupiter 6, so it must be true.

The song has tons of plucky analog synths, morphed vocals, big wide spectrum snare, and a relatively laid back tempo. It's everything I like about the genre. You can download the mp3 for free on their Facebook page (only 192 kbps, oh well). Stony Roads says Jupiter is putting out an album soon, so that's worth keeping an eye out for.
