After last year’s success of the album Stereo, spawning hit singles Intoxicated, Stereo and Twentyfour Seven, Peter Wilson is back with the follow up Laser Light. Many of the same writers / producers are on board again, including Matt Pop, Ian Curnow, Dave Ford and Pete Hammond. Peter also found a great new modern sound, collaborating with hit writer / producer John Von Ahlen, from electropop-darlings Parralox. There are 4 Matt Pop-produced album tracks, two of them written by Matt and Peter. Check out the track-by-track album megamix here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zS7ZLbM-cPo. On the official Matt Pop YouTube page, you will find teasers for all 4 Matt Pop album tracks: http://www.youtube.com/user/MattPopOfficial?feature=mhee .

Download the album from Monday July 2, or get the 2-disc CD  with bonus tracks from http://www.energiserecords.com/ .

Matt Pop once again shares the bill with one of the most in-demand remixers of late, Mr. Mixmaster Pete Hammond. This time, on the latest single by Spencer, called The Quest For Pop. With a title like that, how could Matt refuse? It is an extremely joyful ode to the songs and artists we grew up with – well, if you are over 35, that is 🙂 Watch the amazingly cute video here: http://www.spencerofficial.com/home.cfm

You can already order the Matt Pop mixes on the Spencer site, before they become available through i-Tunes and elsewhere.

Tuesday night, July 10th (conveniently planned on the day before the Hit Factory Live concert in Hyde Park), Energise Records are having a little get-together in Lewisham, London. Peter Wilson, Nicki French and Sammy Paul will all be performing and Matt Pop will also be there to raise a glass to the label’s recent successes. Feel free to drop by to say hello, watch the performances, and enjoy a fun, pop-filled night 🙂

The new video Deneuve Danse by Pierre Pascual is now on YouTube, in its full, 7 minute, extravagant glory. During the last 20 seconds you can hear a snippet of the Matt Pop Club Mix. The release date of the single – an ode  to the queen of French cinema, Catherine Deneuve – , including the Matt Pop mixes, will be confirmed soon. Watch the video here:
