Eli & Fur - Tonight

After their hypnotic indie rave anthem "Sea of Stars" worked its way to the upper regions of my iTunes' 25 most played, I was ready for more Eli & Fur months ago. So that their second online release "Tonight" is just as immediate. A bit grittier, yet also a bit more commercially minded, an electroslab bassline pulsates, and the cut and paste chorus hook is hungry for the dancefloor. The fuzzy, murmered vocals are a bit more audible this time round, giving the track a Little Boots or Sky Ferreira feel. The duo sing "tonight, I'm never ever gonna get you off my mind" and the tragic dancefloor divas role is one that suits them. In fact, they bring their own twins-from-the-shining eerie approach. MORE MORE MORE.

For fans of: Little Boots, Sky Ferreira, Robyn

Eli & Fur - Sea Of Stars (FREE DOWNLOAD)

Synthpop often settles for being twee, rarely wanting to enter anthemic territory, yet London/Surrey based synth-duo Eli & Fur's "Sea of Stars" is nothing less than huge. Female shoegazer vocals float over an almighty eurodance backing track that takes influence from 90s dance and techno, whilst still sounding timeless. Genuinely moreish. Keep an eye out for further tracks by these guys.
