New bubblegum electro pop from an upcoming pop hunk no doubt. Check out here.
New Music: Josephine
I heard about this lady some time ago but her name deems it near impossible to google her for more information. But anyway, here you go. Very exciting new British soul. ‘What a Day’ and will be released on 20th August followed by the album titled ‘Portrait’ on 8th October. Check out here.
First Watch: Freedom Fry ‘Summer in the City’
Summer? What Summer? In case you aren’t aware, London hasn’t had one single day in the last month without rain… But hey, let’s watch Freedom Fry enjoy their summer instead.
Kick the week with some remixed Stevie Wonder
This remix by Monolith is a little bit epic. What better way to start another week?
New Music: Friend Slash Lover
This is by indie rockers Friend Slash Lover. The group’s been around for some time, but this is the first I’ve heard from them, and there’s a subdued epic feel to their sound. Check out here.
First Watch: Moya ‘Lost & Found’
Featured late last year, this is the cute new single from 21-year old Moya. It’s got a bit of a 90’s indie feel to it.
New Music: Robert Ellis
Country music is my guilty- oh so guilty- pleasure. Give me Dolly any day of the week. But my favourite type of country is the sort that is so senselessly hopeless that it just makes you want to wave a bottle of Jack Daniels into the sky and curse in a heavy Texan accent at all of the world’s misfortunes. Just like this really. Check out here.
Nas + Amy Winehouse
Nas is back with a new record that has this track featuring the late Amy Winehouse. Reminiscent of ‘Like Smoke‘, which was included in Winehouse’s posthumous album. Miss you Amy.
New Music: Summer Camp
Summery, weird pop. Does what the label says, really. Check out here.
Just in case you missed Aiden Grimshaw’s new music video…
… here it is. It was revealed earlier this week. Curtain Call is released on the 12th of August through RCA and debut album ‘Misty Eye’ follows on the 20th of August.
New Music: We Are Sons
I just opened an email with this band’s link this morning and it sounded perfect for a Sunday morning, so give it a listen. So sweet. Check out here.
New Music: Wildcat! Wildcat!
Beautiful, breezy, relaxed Californian pop. Check out here.
New Music: As Elephants Are
Epic indie pop. Check out here.
Video Games
Check out this cute reworking of Lana Del Rey’s ‘Video Games’ by Alfitude faves, The Young Professionals. I promise you’ll fall in love.
New Music: Woodz
Let’s start the weekend with some uptempo synthy Swedish sounds from Woodz. Check out here.
New Music: Diana
I think this is shoegaze, but I’m not sure. One things for certain though, nothing is more perfect to listen to on a Thursday night than this. Check out here.
New Music: IO ECHO
A unique blend of pop melodies, dark 90’s industrial influences, and far eastern elements. Check out here.
Swedish hipsters
Swedish hipster royalty Lilla Sällskapet have a new video for their latest single that oozes cool. But Im drawn to the song, it’s very addictive.
New Music: Newtimers
Band of the week- I nearly wet my pants when I heard this. This Swedish act sounds so vintage but so current at the same time. Mixing soul with pop, it can’t go wrong really. Check out here.
Ghetto Funk
