New Cee Lo

The Lady Killer album is getting closer and here is another taste from it. The title 'Old Fashioned' kinda says it all. This is classic Motown sounding soul, and who better to sing it then Cee Lo. Sit back and enjoy.

James Blake

HOW HAVE I NOT BLOGGED ABOUT JAMES BLAKE BEFORE? It's fucking criminal. He's gonna be huge next year. And this Feist cover is beautiful.

I Interviewed Magnetic Man



And there's an extract below FULL ARTICLE AT THE DAY JOB HERE

How does it work in the studio?

Benga: It’s mix and match, we don’t have a way of making music we just do it. We spent two months together in one studio in Cornwall.

Skream: The rule is we’ve all gotta agree on each track, if one person doesn’t agree it’s out.

What was Cornwall like?

Artwork: Mental

B: I wasn’t allowed out cos I’m black. They let me down there but I wasn’t allowed out of the studio.

How did you decide how the album would sound?

A: We just had a rule- that it would just be good music. We were lucky with the record label (Sony/ Colombia). When we signed to them, they’d seen the live show and told us to ‘keep doing what you’re doing and we’ll worry about the rest’.

Gorillaz- Doncamatic (All Played Out)



Here's Damon's latest non-Plastic Beach single featuring Daley. It's got a similar synth vibe to a lot of the tracks from the last album and is already growing on me after a few listens. I wish there was a little more of Albarn's vocal on there though.

There are sure to be some really big remixes too.

A link splurge

Click these things. If you want.

I need to go and see Anish Kapoor's new outdoor exhibition

Chris Cunningham's moody video for Gil Scott Heron, it's essentially a portrait but is really cool.

Kanye's leaked track featuring Bon Iver. Which is well worth a listen

A really sick tune by Dubstep dude Ramadanman

Are Harry Potter and Norman Foster in cahoots?

Mark Ronson and Boy George have made a new song, it's pretty super.

That Ninja Tune Album I Keep Talkin Bout


is mostly on this Spotify playlist. And is so worth a listen.

Two New M.I.A Tracks

This one VS Blaqstarr at http://ithinkyoumightgetshitforthat.com/

And this Diplo one at http://4thepeopleontheboat.com/

Both are worth a minute of your time and better than about a third of her last album Maya. Can't wait for those live dates next month.

Jessie J Does It Like A Dude



Here's the first single proper from Jessie J. Do It Like A Dude. Well this is actually the Labrinth remix but its better than the original (link) so stick with this one. I said it the other week but she's gonna be bloody huge!
