When it comes to winning streaks in the iTunes age, nobody has done it like Flight Facilities. The Australian dance outfit has scored an underground hit once every year since their wonderful “Crave You” came out. Their second single was “Foreign Language,” which took us by storm and still didn’t let go. Now, they come back with a third single “With You” with no sight of an album. That’s how they do it in the mp3 era.
The new single “With You” speaks of an adulterous affair. While my friends are having a dispute on whether the pronouns point to a homosexual or heterosexual relationship, the message covers a topic not often-trodden. This is the new single with summer beats and a lively chorus that will leave you repeating it even when the song is not on. This is a truly remarkable track from a band that has not faltered yet.
Sleigh Bells premiere their music video “Demons” on Pitchfork.tv. Sleigh Bells offer a dark and dizzy live performance clip to accompany their Reign of Terror cut “Demons”. The band’s Derek Miller co-directs, with Gregory Kohn.
She is back in full force. “Guardian” is the new single off of her album Havoc & Bright Lights. The track is a song by Canadian-American recording artist Alanis Morissette, released as the lead single from her eighth studio album. The song was written by Morissette and Guy Sigsworth, and produced by Sigsworth and Joe Chiccarelli. It is a pop rocksong, where Morissette promises to look after a special someone. The song received positive reviews from music critics, with most of them praising her return and commending its freshness and brightness.
The song debuted on the Canadian Hot 100 chart and has also charted on the Billboard’s Rock Songs chart. Morissette has promoted the track with live performances, including Dancing with the Stars and this show.
Cheryl returns with her new album ‘A Million Lights’, released on June 18th through Polydor Records. A Million Lights, Cheryl’s third solo album, is a body of work that indicates an advancement in both her confidence and maturity. Sonically, ‘A Million Lights’ draws heavily from Cheryl’s preferred R&B playlists whilst also taking off-road trips into the dance tent, as witnessed on offerings from Calvin Harris (‘Call My Name’) and the preferred dub-effects of newbies like Panther (‘Girl In The Mirror’).
Having picked from a slew of beats to pen to and songs that captured her imagination, Cheryl’s had nearly a year in the studio, working with a vast array of production talent, resulting in a powerful new chapter in her already impressive discography. Sowing the synths in New York with Jim Beanz, ‘This is War’ was the first borne. Going on to work with the likes of British talent; Naughty Boy, Alex Da Kid and one’s to watch such as the US based Beema Boys and the UK’s own Hy-Grade.
Rumer is feeding the sudden hike in her career with a cover album titled Boys Don’t Cry. This is the second single off of the album. The album has leaked but will officially be out on May 28th, 2012.
Kimbra got quirkier than we remember her. Maybe this comes with the fame she got from her collaboration with Gotye on the #1 track “Somebody That I Used To Know.” But, it’s still loved and appreciated.
