Eric Prydz is probably best know for this. The clip above is his new single. Very good.

New Music: Tim Berg
This song reminds me a bit of 90’s garage, even though it’s pure swedish dance pop. I can see this being played on Kiss100 all summer. Song’s called Bromance. Check out here.
New Music: Moxie Black
I don’t really know much about this band, it all seems a bit elusive but their track ‘So Much Better’ has been on loop on my iTouch all day and I just can’t get enough of it. Check out here.
First Listen: Lo Fi Fnk ‘Sleepless’
I love this song so much – it’s better than Stepping Out in my opinion. One of my favourite pop duo’s. Click here to listen.
La Roux auditions for Harry Potter
First Listen: Erik Hassle ‘Taken (Still In My Blood)’
From my favourite singer for the last year and half. Stunning.
RATATAT video… Freaky!
This is RATATAT’s new video for ‘Drugs’. Who knew smiling was so… scary…
New Music: Mads Langer
Tipped to become a big big Danish pop star. Does an excellent cover version of Olive’s ‘You’re Not Alone’. Check out here.
New Music: Parmalee
Good American rock- the kind you want to listen to on a long road trip across a dusty highway. Check out here.
New Music: Christina Perri
Christina Perri has had a huge online following thanks to just one song, ‘Jar of Hearts’. And I can kinda see why, it’s a really well written track. Look forward to hearing more from this talented lady. Check out here.
New Music: Everybody Else
This band have a bit of a unique sound, if their song ‘First Class’ is anything to go by. Young garage rock. Check out here.
New Music: K.A.Y
This lady’s version of ‘Bang Bang’ by Nancy Sinatra is so good. Just needs a little refining. K.A.Y has that look of Gaga about here, but with a bit of Ke$ha thrown in there with some Robyn to add… Check out here.
New Music: Breathe Electric
American electropop bands always either get it really wrong or they get it really right. I think Breathe Electric are pretty good. They’ve got an interesting tagline… ‘Breathe Electric was created with you–the listener and soon-to-be biggest fan–in mind. They know the melodies you want to hear and have no qualms with delivering them through heaps of hook and catchy sing-a-long choruses’. I guess they’re totally not fussed about being called commercial, which makes a change! Check out here.
New Music: Rob Cowen & The Dissidents
I really like this band- they’re very British rock, and have a pretty lively sound to their songs. ‘The Heartlands’ is a bit of an anthem. Check out here.
New Music: Rumer
I guess the first thing you think of when you listen to Rumer is that it’s all a bit Karen Carpenter. But what’s wrong with that? It’s the sort of music you want to listen to when you’re on your bike on a sunny day in the park… Check out here.
New Music: Still Corners
Beautiful summery soft pop music, gives me the same shivers that melodic trip hop does. Check out here.
Whatever happened to Unklejam?
I was so excited when this band was around… I think I saw them live a couple of times before they just kind of vanished… I guess they got dropped by their label but that’s no excuse not to check them out if you haven’t already. Electropop with serious soul mixed with a load of attitude. I hope it all picks up again soon. Check out here.
First Listen: Kylie Minogue ‘Get Outta My Way’
Kylie’s second single from the amazing Aphrodite. This is probably my favourite track on the album, perfect pop pop pop. Next single will be Everything Is Beautiful I reckon… If I had my way!
The Count & Sinden with Mystery Jets
Monarchy are dicks
So a couple of weeks ago I mentioned Monarchy on my blog… I had a clip from one of their gigs on my Youtube and they sent the website one of those legal notices threatening me and taking it off. It even mentioned who was behind it- the guy with the curly pubey hair.
I wasn’t making any money off those videos, only to share with the world their music but whatever. First they cancel their own gig without refunds, and now this. I now look forward to receiving an email from WordPress telling me off for posting their picture on this post no doubt. So thanks Monarchy for making a fan feel like a criminal. Maybe sell some records before you get all high up on your internet threats yea?
