Video Premiere: “Pressure” by Nadia Ali, Starkillers and Alex Kenji
3Nadia Ali is not only working at her solo projects but also collaborating. She know what made her famous and her vocals have become synonymous with third-wave house music. This is not our cup of tea but will do just fine in its circles.
Again: Music For July: Opusolar
6
In usual July tradition, this compilation was put together really fast and given a haphazard collection. Still, we like it that way and we plan to continue doing so because everyone needs a little mess every once in a while. The beats are run-of-the-mill pop, Eurotrash ditties and Mykonos-dance. It’s all that you expect from a summer compilation. The songs will come and leave you fuzzy inside until your sweet tooth decays. So, keep it sunny and pump it up!

Video Premiere: “Soul Is Heavy” by Nneka
1Nneka is back with her second album with politically-oriented lyrics and a message in a form of a song directed to Nigeria. This one’s a little too heavy to be the first single and the music is nothing close to a homerun, but it’s worth a note.

Critically acclaimed artist, Lykke Li, is still on the campaign for her second album, Wounded Rhymes. The album is spewing another single out in time for Fall. This time around the track “Rich Kid Blues” is getting the release and its not a surprise as it is one of the better, more polished songs on the sophomore disc.

Video Premiere: “When We Were Young” by Take That
1The last album of Take That’s hasn’t been on our playlist and we are not sure we downloaded it or not. We should as we are fans of the band, but the last few singles weren’t up our ally. At any rate, this is the new video for their single “When We Were Young.”
Rachael Yamagata is readying up third album!
1
Rachael Yamagata has been absent for a while. That’s because she is putting out a new full-length album and because she is self-releasing it. Happenstance was a great album and Elephants… Teeth Sinking Into Heart didn’t quite hit us in the right spot, but we are waiting to hear more of this damsel in distress.

Video Premiere: “Beneath The Underdog” by Nellie McKay
Never really got into her, can someone direct us to some of her best work so we can go ahead and give Nellie McKay a spin?

Video Premiere: “All About Tonight” by Pixie Lott
1New look, new sound and now outlook? Maybe, but the beat is too Ke$ha without the attitude.

We usually don’t cover this sort of stuff, but since we are humongous fans of the reclusive Joni Mitchell, we decided to give it a go. The queen songwriter, Joni Mitchell, visited her home country of Canada to celebrate her father’s 100th birthday. How lovely. She looks so fresh. Click here for the source.
Video Premiere: “Think About It” by Melanie C
1We hate to say it, but, as of now, we don’t like any new music we heard from Melanie C. This is the second single after “Rock Me,” which came and went fast. It’s Melanie C’s new direction and we better get with the program. The former sporty one is back with The Sea.
