MS MR - Hurricane (CHVRCHES Remix)

MS MR are one of the more subtle female fronted bands of the last couple of years, choosing a Florence-esque majesty over the all out synth onslaught of acts like CHVRCHES and Charli XCX. But every subtle song has an unexplored jubilant side, and the brilliant CHVRCHES smother "Hurricane" with 80s new wave electro, right down to its ridiculously authentic sampled snare drum. Whilst MS MR only predicted an oncoming storm in their original song, CHVRCHES bring the 80s synthpop tremors with panache.

The Presets - Fall

For a band who focus so intently on their less melodic, minimalistic rave numbers, I personally wonder why The Presets don't just stick to melodic dancepop numbers like "Fall". As with the unfathomably brilliant duo of "This Boy's In Love" and "If I Know You" from their last record, 2008's Apocalypso, "Fall" encapsulates a warm, euphoric-pop space with hooks so perfect one could even call them timeless.

Latest record Pacifica is their most accomplished to date, not at all unrelated to the fact that it's their most melodic. Keep going guys, you've almost got it!
