Skrein has been around for a little while in the UK hip hop/ MC scene. His track ‘Reach’ for the Adulthood film is class, and reminds me a lot of Plan B’s first album. Check out here.

New Music: Curry and Coco
French power electropop. Very good. Check out here.
Myles Cooper
I saw this guy featured on the Guardian a while ago and forgot to mention him on here. His music could be compared to a giant glittery rainbow showering little multicoloured plastic hearts across San Francisco on a wet day. Check out here.
New Music: Antics
I’ve been meaning to feature someone called Joe Danger on here for a while, and it now seems that he’s changed his name to Antics… I think you would class this music as classic ‘wonky pop’, no? Check out here.
New Music: Sunday Girl
A crisp sound coming from this London based act. Sexy pop. Check out here.
New Music: Ed Drewett
You’ll recognise this guy from the Professor Green track, ‘I Need You Tonight’. I reckon Ed Drewett will be pretty large this time next year judging from the demo’s on his Myspace. Check out here.
Watch a preview of Kylie Minogue’s ‘Get Outta My Way’
New Music: Frank Turner
Happy and simple British folk. Easy to listen to and fun. Check out here.
New Music: Anoop Desai
A sort of Stevie Wonder/ Ne-Yo/ Justin Timberlake vibe with some Indian beats thrown in when needed. This is so good! Check out here.
New Music: I Am Arrows
Great pop band founded by former Razorlight drummer Andy Burrows in June 2009. I defy anyone not to cheer up after listening to this song. They’re playing London next month and I’m going to go see them me thinks. Check out here.
New Music: Pariah
Dubstep with shoegaze. Check out here.
The Count and Sinden
Go to their Myspace right now and listen to ‘Do You Really Want It’ feat Trackademics. Rah.
New Music: Melodica Melody and Me
This is the sort of music you want to hear in a sunny park somewhere with some friends around you. It’s got a soft innocent about it. Check out here.
New Music: Fortune
French electro rock with a bit of indie. Check out here.
