There’s been a lot of talk about this video (in the UK anyway)- not just because it’s Duran Duran but because the video features some of fashion’s biggest models- Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Eva Herzigova, Helena Christensen and Yasmin Le Bon– faking a ‘super group’. It’s fun to watch, and the song’s good too.
Almost a year ago I featured one of New York’s hottest up-and-coming starlets, Bekele. Now she’s come back with this, and as far as début videos go, this is pretty spectacular. The new Gaga? Very, very possibly. A glitter micro/cock is just genius. But what’s even better is the song’s available as a free download on the site- check out here.
The first 30 seconds of this track are so painfully vibey and cool. This is the new video from my favourite band of recent years, Friendly Fires. Don’t leave, don’t leave, don’t leeeeeaaaave…
Previously featured on here a few weeks ago, Swedish Jon Ink is back with a new video. It’s crazy catchy- this kid really needs a big record deal! He’s also acting as a guestjudge in Webjokern, the swedish eurovision song contest 2012.
The return of one of the UK’s biggest MC’s is here, and this track is HUGE. The official video came out last week and features a cameo from magician Dynamo and puts Sway firmly back in the driving seat (gettit?)… Check out here.
One of the best videos of the year by a mile! Hope it doesn’t put you off your lunch!
Niki & The Dove was featured here long, long before many people started to realise her amazingness. This is her new single and it is sick. The beats just melt like butter. Check out here.
I have to be honest, I thought The Ting Tings would be a one-hit-wonder. However, this is their new single and although I really have no idea if anyone will buy it, it’s pretty amazing. The drums remind me of the intro to Dizzee Rascal’s ‘Fix Up Look Sharp‘. They haven’t lost their touch.
I don’t know much about Filur but they seem to be big in their native Denmark- I just love the song (when it kicks in at the 2:45 mark). Check out here.
One of my favourite songs by this duo. They’ve announced a tour for the autumn (so like… now). Check out here.
I wrote about Caan back in the summer. This is the video to ‘Now Hear This My Friends’, out on October 10th. He’s definitely one to watch for- amazing talent.
This has to be absolutely my favourite song of the month. Previously featured on here back in March this year, this is the new single from Maverick Sabre. It’s a boy version of Adele and Amy. This is TALENT.
I’ve been a bit obsessed with MNEK for a while now. Anyway, this song is not new, but it’s been reworked and is getting a proper release that an amazing tune like this deserves. He’s also co-written current crazy hit ‘All Fired Up’ by The Saturdays which is top 10 in the UK charts at the moment.
You know what I like about him? He puts enough fun in his pop without it sounding like something out of a CBeebies show. Check him out!
This is it- Amy’s last recording. Single’s out today on iTunes. Buy it and remember the greatness that was Amy Winehouse, and to support the new Foundation set up in her name which was also launched today- what would have been Amy’s birthday (the single’s proceeds will go towards it). She looks stunning. I wrote a post a while ago about how important Amy’s music was (and still is) so special to me- read it here if you like.
I’ve already featured Alex Boyd previously on here, and this is his new video. I really can’t wait for the rest of the world to catch up with this guy- he’s just too good!
My favourite Israeli camp pop duo have come out with a new single, ’20 Seconds’. The video seems to carry off from their last single, D.I.S.C.O. which was featured here a while back.
Justice are back! This is from their upcoming album, out in October. I’ve been throwing myself into French electro this year a lot, specially Ed Banger stuff. Exciting.
With the X Factor wheel in full motion in the UK, last year’s winner has released a video to his new ‘proper’ single. It doesn’t sound like anything from any of the previous X Factor winners in Britain. I don’t know what I think of it to be honest but kudos for bucking the trend.
