Hurts have released a suitably dramatic video for their bombastic new single ‘Miracle’, which features the pair playing/singing back to back while scantily clad women writhe about in pop video stylee. Check it out: ‘Miracle’ is the first single taken from Hurts’ new album Exile – the follow-up to their very well received debut album…
‘Nothing Ordinary’ is an indie hit with a surprisingly hooky chorus hiding behind its unusual and wacky production side. The off-kilter drum track and quickly singable chorus work together to give this a more commercial side to its distinctly indie vibe. {rating}
Opening with the title track featuring a guest appearance from Frank Carter III (he’s on it so little I hope they didn’t pay him much) the EP gets off to a soulful start before someone sets the drum machine going and ruins it, with the fast-paced drum and bass riff being entirely different to the…
Sadly not Darius of Pop Idol fame, this is a different, more French, Darius out with his EP of smooth electronic laid back numbers.

It’s difficult to put my finger on what makes the track but the gentle well-constructed production is definitely one of…
Opener ‘Little Italy’ is a pointed, indie number led by the distinct vocals of the lead singer and it bounces along for a very quick three minutes but doesn’t leave a massive mark on you as it lacks the killer hook of an indie classic, and the converging elements at the two minute mark don’t…
I think I’ve listened to my fair share of repetitive electronica this week but here is fate dolling me out some more. I like Groove Armada but not when they make music like this. {rating}
I remember when I first started learning the keyboard I could have done a piano riff like this, someone stabbing at five notes on the keyboard over and over again. Here on ‘Games’, joined by three remixes on the extended-play, CLAIRE is more listenable than the irritating, repetitive off-the-shelf backing; her voice is a pleasure…
