The Robots are back. Finally

Posted by DJ • April 23, 2013 at 08:23 AM

Eight years after their last proper release, the French duo are back. We don’t remember such a buzz over a new album sweeping the internet, and after many teaser, fake leaks and radio rips, the first single from the duo’s much talked about new album, Random Access Memories, is finally here.

Get Lucky is a in fact a product of a supergroup – you get the legendary Nile Rodgers on guitar, the man behind the success of Chic, producer of international hits by David Bowie, Dianna Ross, Madonna, Duran Duran and many others; and on vocals, Pharrell Williams of the Neptunes/N*E*R*D and a ground breaking, hit making producer on his own right.

The track sounds exactly like you would imagine – vintage disco meets the robot swag of Daft Pank and the suave vocals of Pharrell. Check it out!

 

 

Back to the Basement

Posted by DJ • April 20, 2013 at 01:52 PM

Basement Jaxx are a UK duo, responsible for ground breaking dance music in the 90′s & 00′s and some of the greatest pop moments of the previous decade. They are now back with an infectious new song, Back 2 the Wild, which is a great piece of psychedelic, tropic pop, with an extraordinary video.

Give this a spin, and see how you are drawn back to the wild, listening to the cries of mother nature!

The smell of Summer is already starting to spread, and Brad Paisely is taking a stab at scoring the ultimate summer hit with his new single – Beat this Summer, a nostalgic piece of laid back rock featuring a couple of cute kids on the newly released video.

Check this out and grab his new album on iMesh

 

China in your hands

Posted by DJ • April 13, 2013 at 08:14 AM

Chris Brown is the world’s biggest bad boy. Ask any Rihanna fan. It makes it really difficult to hate him though, when he releases such a great pop song, which gives Justin Timberlake a run for his “I am the new Michael Jackson” campaign. Fine China is a smooth, groovy and delicious track, we wish more pop music would sound like that in 2013.

So Chris Brown might be a scumbag, but we have to give him that – he is a great musician, dancer and singer.

 

The Creator has a master plan

Tyler, The Creator, is one of Rap’s greatest new hopes. Leading his Odd Future crew, which already set the world on fire with the Frank Ocean album, Tyler is like no other rapper you’ve ever seen. He is sharp and has a quirky flow like no other, the beats he rhymes over are twisted and fresh, and he is as far as you can think from your typical bling waver top 40 rapper, which is probably why we like him.

Check out the leading video from his new album, Wolf. What a video!

 

Lana at the reception

Posted by DJ • April 07, 2013 at 10:07 AM

It requires a big set of kahunas to boldly cover a famous Leonard Cohen song, and Lana Del Rey, surviving an internet-wide back lash against her, is standing up on her two feet, and shakes off the criticism by approaching this song with an untypical minimalistic approach, and with a lot of respect for the original.

Chelsea Hotel No. 2 by Lana Del Rey. She’s still here, folks, and it looks like she’s gonna stay a bit longer.

 

 

Keep on keeping on

It’s been quite a ride for Bon Jovi since the glam metal days of the 80′s, with the  very tight pants and the extremely permed hair. But somehow, Jon and the boys managed to stay popular, and their brand new album is no exception. Riding high on top of the Billboard charts, What About Now is another typical Bon Jovi album, full of rock anthems and stadium bangers.

Check out the leading single, Because We Can. Is it a nod towards a famous campaign slogan of a recently re-elected president? We wonder…

 

 

The rising Phoenix, the falling boy

Posted by DJ • March 31, 2013 at 09:47 AM

It’s been 5 years since the last Fall Out Boy album. And now, the Pop-Punk band is ready to reclaim their spot in popular culture with the ambitiously titled new album, Save Rock and Roll. Judging by the great reception that the first single received, they might actually be right about it…. So see how The Phoenix rises from the dead, with a turbo-charged new song from The Fall Out Boy.

 

and Justin for all

Justin Timberlake is celebrating his return to the music business with The 20/20 Experience, his first studio album in 7 years. We’re happy to join the party, and paste  here his new video for Mirrors, one of the fine cuts on the album. Check it out, and grab the album on iMesh

 

Not in Kansas anymore?

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, the classic children’s novel, was first published in 1900, and became one of the most recognizable cultural tokens of our time. It spawned countless renditions and remakes, the latest one is the Disney movie Oz the Great and Powerful, directed by Sam Raimi.

The movie also features this new song by Mariah Carey, the perfect hybrid of Dorothy and the Wicked Witch of the South. It’s sort of an epic pop song that we thought wasn’t made anymore. Check it out!
