After almost a year after releasing ‘Bad Girls’, M.I.A returns with a banging new single ‘Bring The Noize’. This track is definitely a classic M.I.A tune, with the chopped and repeated vocal beat, and her classic M.I.A flow. This track is absolute perfection, and just gets me more and more excited for her new project I guess. I’m not sure when she is supposed to release her next album, but I’ll wait patiently, from the tracks I have heard so far it sounds like its going to be sick!

NEW VIDEO: Lorde – Tennis Court
Lorde has been gaining quite a bit of buzz recently over the internet, and just yesterday she released her video for her quite amazing single ‘Tennis Court’. If you don’t know Lorde, you will probably love her if your a fan of Lana Del Rey, they both sound very much the same. I hate to say it, but I haven’t seen anything yet that sets the 2 apart, which isn’t the worst thing in the world, but also no the best. I do love ‘Tennis Court’ although comparable to Lana, either way both are very good. Enjoy!
NEW MUSIC: Raleigh Ritchie – Stay Inside
Thanks to Pinboard, I have recently discovered the soulful Raleigh Ritchie. Raleigh has a very soulful tone to his voice, but the beats he sings over reminds me like another James Blake a bit. That’s not to take anything away from Raleigh, because they are very different, but I can’t help but compare. ‘Stay Inside’ is a very catchy track, and definitely one of my more recent favorites that I have come across. He has another track on his soundcloud titled A Moor, which is just as good.
Hope to hear more from him very soon!
NEW MUSIC: Leon Else – Tomorrow Land (All Fall Down)
Stumbled upon this guy a couple of days ago, and after giving this track a couple of spins, I thought it was very necessary that I share it. Leon Else is a newcomer from over seas in the UK, with a very distinct sound following in the footsteps of Jamie Woon, James Blake and The XX. ‘Tomorrow Land’ starts out very haunting and smooth at the same time, while Leon’s vocals flow perfectly over the beat. The track continues to grow musically and vocally into a very big track. I love everything about this track, and I think Leon Else will definitely have a career in the UK, I just hope the USA catches this soon!
NEW VIDEO: Daley – Songs That Remind Me of You
Those of you who have been following this blog know that I am a huge supporter of semi-newcomer Daley. I have been following his career for quite some time now, and he is slowly getting the credit he deserves with his success of ‘Alone Together’ all over the USA. He has been teasing us with this video for a couple of days now, and it is finally out in full and just like anything he puts out, it doesn’t disappoint at all. STRMOY is perfection, and I’m very much excited to hear his next EP, and soon followed by his album Days & Nights.
Stay tuned friends, this guy is about to blow up!
NEW MUSIC: Miley Cyrus – We Can’t Stop
Along with a whole new look, teen star, Miley Cyrus has put out a new sound which has a more R&B flavor towards it. I’m not sure how I feel about this track just yet, I definitely see it impacting radio stations everyone, but as far as quality, there isn’t much behind it. It sounds like a throw away Rihanna track, which isn’t a bad thing when it comes to chart success. I am excited to see what else she has going for her on this album though, I do like this side of her more than her pop side, although it still has aspects of pop in it.
