Our favorite Danes (second only to Tina Dico) have already completed a new album that was rumored to be called This Is Still Alphabeat, but have announced that it will actually be The Spell, which is a song that will be on the album. The Spell is going to be out in October in an already crammed year. Songs that will be included are “Heart Failure,” “DJ,” “Chess” and the title track. The band say that they are not staying with the sound they came popular for but will take a different route in inspiration of 90s’ early house bands like Blackbox and Snap!, which is super appealing. We love both bands.

2To have faith in Obama, still
5
Everyone is ranting and yelling about how Obama has lost the trust of the people and the world has yet to see some “change” for them to grant him credibility. But, sometimes when you are deep in the cesspit of someone else’s faults, it takes time to surface. The resurrection of the world’s state rests upon his shoulders and that is not any easy task, to say the least. He took office after one of the worst presidents in modern times inheriting a measly economy, two wars and a bunch of issues that have been shut down in the name of war. This term is really not enough for him to rectify all that has gone wrong in the past from Reagan’s disregard for civil rights, to Bush’s first war handling, to Clinton plateau to the worst presidency in the US’s history.
Video: “Show Me Somethin’” by Mýa featuring Bun B
2It’s amazing how Mýa has survived so many flops in a row. Still, she remains with that tired old R&B template and beats that are not bound to take her anywhere but a lower end of the R&B charts. This is from her Beauty & The Streets Vol.1 mixtape released independently. She needs to re-invigorate and experiment with new beats. Perhaps opting for a more dance-oriented sound. She probably would sell better as a dance artist. Imagine her working with Frankmusik or Miguel Migs. Yes! A collaboration album between her and Miguel would definitely stir some heads.
Introducing… Cassette Kids
1Going on a scavenger hunt around MySpace is always fruitful. The Cassette Kids are the newest find. The aussie band has some fun beats under their sleeve/s. Their music verges of the fringes of pop only to connect with a strong electro aura. In return for your precious e-mail details they will give a sample. A free track titled “Freaky Sweetie” is available on their website. Also, you can hear a bunch of tracks on their MySpace page.

Do you miss the Polaroid camera?
1Are you still gutted that the Polaroid camera has been discontinued in 2008? Well, Urban Outfitter, with it’s love for anything that fuses quirk with vintage, has resurrected the camera for a limited time. 700 of the cameras will be available at select stores. The camera will come with film. So you have (what was it 6 or 7?) a couple of pics to take with that iconic white frame. I, personally, was given a Spice Girls Polaroid camera for my 9th and have no intent on using it, but constantly hugging it.
