Of course, you couldn’t pick someone more appropriate than Adele for the new James bond them; her brassy, jazzy voice, and unique stage persona will definitely bring something special to the table. So far, the song hasn’t even leaked, but Showbiz 411. The song is called “Let the Sky Fall” and her collaborator is indeed Paul Epworth, the man who co-wrote her big bit “Rolling in the Deep” and most of “21”. Obviously, this is…
Well to be honest, this is not quite news, as it happened about a year ago, but even searching, I couldn’t find any English media coverage about this – except for a Norwegian newspaper. So after a half an hour talk with a friend of mine who studies in Norway and a hefty chunk of Google Translate, I managed to figure out what was happening. The world No. 1, Magnus Carlsen, was in Rio, where…
Every month brings about a mess a new releases from artists over each and every genre. Unfortunately, most of them come out quietly while others get brought up in every outlet. This is usually thanks to some sort of notoriety – just think about Billie Joe Armstrong and his freakout recently. Oops, I guess I kind of promoted their new album – but I’m not going say the name of it. Looking at the list…
Crystal Castles, the electronic-experimental band from Toronto, formed by Alice Glass and Ethan Kath, recently announced on their facebook page, that they will release a new album on the 5th November. Source. Crystal Castles – (III) This new album (III), was produced entirely by Ethan Kath, and two of the songs were already released on the internet, first one is Plague (my favorite song from C.C. after Doe Deer) and the…
It’s been 11 years since their previous time, and damn I’ve missed them. Even Gwen Stefani seems surprised: “I can’t believe it / Has it really been this long?,” she asks, in one of the standouts of the album. If you’re a true fan, you should just stop reading this now and go get it; seriously, it’s some of the best work they’ve done. Even if Gwen married an Englishman, she’s still the American girl…
Fans of Kiwi electroclash duo Kids of 88 have been waiting in anticipation for several months, as the guys have been taking their time putting together a second full-length offering, entitled Modern Love. Their first album, Sugarpills, was an unmitigated critical success, earning the band attention outside their native New Zealand, and building a fan base that now reaches across Europe and the Americas as well. Initially the album was set to drop in late…
Today was the big day for No Doubt fans across the world: their first album in over a decade was released. ‘Push and Shove’ hit the shelves on September 25 and having listened to it a couple of times, I can say it’s quite intriguing. I didn’t know exactly what to expect from them, maintaining the same style or a massive adaptation to the global changes in music… but it sounds good. It sounds damn…
It was bound to happen; you knew it, I knew it, the dude next door who plays just too much World of Warcraft knew it: Gangnam style Halloween costumes. The number of entrepreneurs and companies trying to cash in on the recent, humongous success of the song just keeps growing, and considering how Halloween is already a large scale business, this comes at no surprise. “We expect this to be a HUGE costume trend this…
Source. Left-Miley Cyrus, Right-Gwen Stefani I avoided to write about Miley Cyrus even if she’s all over the internet, and I am not saying that I haven’t read anything about her, ’cause that will be a lie ( I have to stay informed, haven’t I?). All I read about her was how she changed her hair color, how she is no longer a teenager,etc., but confusing Miley Cyrus with Gwen Stefani…
Today, I am going to talk about a successful musician from Essex. Now, you may think that there is nothing particularly original, innovative or special about that. But let me tell you, Alex Day is different. On paper, many record labels would have sneered at his chances of success. He promotes his music through YouTube, allows fans to use and listen to it for free on his website, releases multiple songs at the same time,…
