This Week’s New Single Releases (27th October)

My round up of the new singles available for digital download this week. Aloe Blacc – ‘Wake Me Up’ Having appeared on the Avicii number one as an uncredited artist we now get his own take on it. It’s not a huge departure from the original, but forgoes the dance feel for a more straight-forward […]

My round up of the new singles available for digital download this week. Editors – ‘Formaldehyde’ Download: Formaldehyde Editors are back with the second single from their latest album and, though the voice of lead singer Tom Smith is recognisable, the sound is considerably different, possibly reflecting the band’s change in line-up.

Video Review: “Body Talk” by Foxes

English singer and songwriter Foxes has already made a name for her with her new single “Body Talk”. The single was released a few weeks ago and it made headlines due to its amazing chorus. It was definitely one of the best pop chorus that we have heard this year so far. Now Foxes has […]

Single “Body Talk” by Foxes

English singer Foxes has released a new single titled “Body Talk”. Release of this single was delayed a little due to Tove Lo’s “Talking Body” already hitting the peak and had a similar name. It seemed like a sensible move to delay the release until Tove Lo’s hit number bounced off the top. If you […]

Album review: Foxes – ‘Glorious’

Foxes – Glorious Rating: 6/10 Buy: Glorious Louisa Rose Allen arrives with her debut album and, though calling it a glorious piece of music might be an overstatement, it’s a fun, perky pop package, masking some quite downbeat themes and lyrics, supported by a handful of radio friendly songs that showcase her ear for a […]

Single review: Foxes – ‘Holding Onto Heaven’

The most striking eyes in music is back with this bouncy, pop number that’s not quite as immediately powerful as ‘Let Go For Tonight’ but, thanks to its fast-beat, Foxes’ alluring and strong voices and soaring strings, ‘Holding Onto Heaven’ proves to be just as listenable. Throwing in some catchy ‘ooh’ hooks in the chorus […]

This Week’s New Single Releases (23rd February 2014)

My A-Z round up of the new singles available for digital download this week.

Single Of The Week

Foxes – ‘Let Go For Tonight’
The second single from their debut album and this is a much more accomplished listen than their first cut. With a bombastic backing tune and a hugely danceable vibe, with Louisa Rose Allen’s vocals belting out, this is a great slice of bouncy pop with some well-placed lyrics, musical breaks and a fun, closing section. Hopefully this will do well for the young singer in the charts. (7.5/10)
