Warning: This video is a little naughty…
Indie/ synth duo Voltaire Twins release a new EP, ‘Apollo’, with this track and very sexy video.
When Kanye West’s dancers took over a plane…
I’m not really sure why this happened, but it did and it’s cool and kinda beautiful to watch. I guess it’s to show off Kanye West to some capacity. Or maybe they’re just having fun…
New Music: Mighty Quinn
Im not sure how long this chap and his producer, Brian Lee, have been around but this is a really sexy, funky sound which I just have to share. Check out here.
New Music: Belmont Lights
This is a great song to finish off this patchy Wednesday. Pop/ rock from San Diego with a very radio-friendly sound that’s promising to the ears! Check out here.
First Listen: Little Night Terrors ‘Young Lion’
I featured Little Night Terrors back in April and I have to say, they’re getting better and better with each track I hear! This is their new single, out in September.
New Music: Venice
This indie/pop sound feels really fresh and fun, and I’m looking forward to hearing more from this Buckinghamshire band. Check out here.
New Music: Glass Theory
Electropop from LA. And it’s free to download if you like it! Check out here.
New Music: The Lumineers
I am tempted to call this camp folk, just because it’s so playful and easy to enjoy. Check out here.
New Music: Naughty Boy
Do you recognise who’s singing this? It’s Emeli Sande, which is pretty cool. The track itself is by super producer Naughty Boy, who’s venturing out with a solo record coming out next year. This is out next month though. Check out here.
New Music: Sophie Delila
This is one of my favourite picks for the week. It’s intricate and so simple at the same time, it’s pop but with a lot of emotion which is rare. Check out here.
New Music: Phebe Starr
I am absolutely in love with this Australian pop starlet. If I could just feature this for the whole week I would. Check out here.
New Music: Wake Up Lucid
Garage rock from LA. Check out here.
New Music: The Cab
New Music: Alison Valentine
Live: Aiden Grimshaw Album Launch at Cargo London
Aiden Grimshaw’s brilliant debut album ‘Misty Eye’ is officially out today (click here for my verdict), so an album launch was held in Cargo London to celebrate.
I only managed to get in late to the venue but I was impressed by how well the songs carried themselves live.
Aiden’s awesome, I really hope this album does well and enough people realise how ridiculously talented this kid is!
New Music: Wet Nuns
Gritty, raw sounding rock that gets you hooked after a couple of minutes of listening. Single’s released on September 10thon limited edition 7” vinyl and as a digital download. Check out here.
New Music: Julien-K
I can’t really describe this- it’s pop, dance, indie, rock… Seems to touch on everything. Which is good. Check out here.
New Music: The Ukuleles
The name of this band gives it away really. They do some fun tracks/ covers with ukeleles. I tried to learn to play one of those once. Deceptively harder to master than you would think. Album’s out September 3rd. Check out here.
New Music: I Am Giant
It’s been a while since I’ve heard rock as good as this. They’ve already got love over in New Zealand and BBC’s Zane Lowe is a fan… Check out here.
New Music: Janice Graham Band
This Manchester act make a funky sound with a lot of attitude. It’s an interesting sound. Check out here.
