Moullinex - Flora

Just because I am two years late on finding this album does not mean it isn't post-worthy! This album seems like it was slightly ahead of its time, which makes it that much more intriguing. That's one of the coolest parts about diving into a new genre; finding out that awesome music like this was being made before you even knew it existed! Check out Flora, the debut album from German producer and musician, Moullinex!


New wave disco-house seems to be coming up in a big way lately, and Moullinex seems to have been on that train before most of the artists releasing music today were. His music is very light hearted and I could see the live band performance they do while on the road being very fun.

The first time I heard the name Moullinex was through a remix of one of his songs by Gigamesh. Gigamesh remixed Take My Pain Away into an amped up nu-disco track by adding guitar riffs and a bigger bass line throughout. Check out the remix below.



Upon hearing his album for the first time there was one track that jumped out at me instantly. Moullinex nails it on Darkest Night. The vocals from Iwona Skwarek complement the track perfectly as the beat slinks along in the background. The overall vibe of the song is what gabbed me. I like everything about it. Check it out for yourself below!



The other track that I really liked from the album was Tear Club. I love the more islandy, tropical sounds and washed out vocals. It puts me in a beach front day club somewhere in the Mediterranean. The flute sealed the deal for me. Take your mind somewhere far away and check out Tear Club below.



If you like what you hear, throw him a 'Like' on Facebook!

Enjoy! <3
