Vanguard Vanguard Vanguard!

If you haven't heard Vanguard yet don't you dare stop reading. The group is comprised of two young lads from the UK, Tom Morgan and James Thomas, and they produce french touch/disco house tunes. Their sound fits somewhere between Louis La Roche, Kavinsky and Opptimo, needless to say it's pretty epic.

Here are some stellar remixes for your listening pleasure:

The first one is a take on VC favorites Tesla Boy. Epic chords and ample sample chopping.

Tesla Boy - Runaway Man (Vanguard Remix)

The next one is a newer mix that I've been trying to find since hearing it in Vanguards BBC Introducing set on Youtube (find it below), a remix of Pony Pony Run Run's "Hey You." This is my favorite VG remix to date.

Pony Pony Run Run - Hey You (Vanguard Remix)

Finally some originals!

A happy end of summer kind of jam, perfect for lifting spirits during this hellish Pacific NW fall weather:

Vanguard - So Much

And some fly ass disco flute choppin':

Vanguard - Mount Helicon

Go listen to more tunes and AWESOME mixes on their Myspace. Here is a video of their BBC Introducing set featuring the first two remixes in this post:



And here is a music video for yet another one of VG's addictive little tunes, "Loving Someone Else."Thrashing a Ferrari? Closing down streets to crash police cars? This is an expensive video!



I cannot believe these kids are so talented before age 20. So much potential here, I have a feeling they are going to blow up quick. Vanguard, please come to Oregon!
