[Synth-Pop] New Navy – Breathe (Télépopmusik Cover)

French and Australian brands Le Coq Sportif and Future Classic have teamed up to release a collection of Australian covers of French hits, creating something truly innovative and global. Sydney quartet New Navy have taken on ‘Breathe’ by the legendary Télépopmusik and have updated it for a more fast-paced experience. Tropical synths and jaunty guitars take the place of the original’s chilled vibe, making this version of ‘Breathe’ a summery dance hit set to soundtrack many a day at the beach.

[HOT] The Kills – Dreams (Fleetwood Mac Cover)

the kills - dreams

We’ve heard so much about this upcoming Fleetwood Mac tribute record that we’re absolutely desperate for it to drop. The fact that bluesy rock duo The Kills are also featured on this album has Meade us even more excited. Their cover of ‘Dreams’ – one of FM’s best-known tracks – is a sensual yet gritty take on the song which allows the band to make it their own. We reckon ‘Dreams”ll be one of the highlights of the record, which is out on August 14.
