My round up of the new singles available for digital download this week. Arcade Fire feat. David Bowie – ‘Reflektor’ Arcade Fire’s first cut from the album of the same name is a weird affair with many varied elements, thumping bass lines, French and an understated appearance by Mr Bowie himself. Very much like a […]
Aloe Blacc stares vocals on Posthumous single “SOS” by Avicii Tim Bergling, also known by the stage name Avicii, was working in collaboration with Aloe Blacc on his solo “SOS” for the LP “TIM”. The song was released by his family’s wish and is co-produced by Albin Nedler and Kristoffer Fogelmark. Aloe Blacc also starred […]
Here is new music to feel excited about. It’s “Lonely Together” by Rita Ora and Avicii. It’s another move in the right direction by the Brit singer “Rita Ora”. Her current single “Your Song” is already doing really well everywhere (not the US) and she has now worked on this new song. It sounds really good […]
Part one of my round up of the new singles available for digital download this week. Agnetha Faltskog – ‘Dance Your Pain Away’ Former Abba singer’s second new solo single, ‘Dance Your Pain Away’ is a much more uptempo, Europop number than its predecessor. Funky, danceable and well produced, this is a second spot-on hit […]
‘TIM’ had a great start with the opener ‘SOS’ and then the revitalizing ‘Tough Love’. Both made the statements we expected from the Late visionary artist Avicii. Now the things have taken new high roads with ‘Hold the Line’. The ARIZONA collaboration is literally a gem deserving a closer look. The symphony and the Lyrics […]
The four-yearly World Cup is not just confined to what happens on the pitch. It’s also about the fans at home and in the pub – no to mention the artists that have crammed into the recording studios or back bedrooms of Great Britain and abroad to record their own tribute to the beautiful game. So, […]
Avicii’s music video for “The Nights” has quite a story behind it. It highlights the amazing story of a videographer Rory Kramer. Rory, who is already a huge YouTube star for his adventure videos, agreed to contribute his life footage for Avicii’s music video when asked by Nick ‘Ras’ Furlong. Ras is Avicii’s collaborator, and […]
The fourth single from Avicii’s debut album is possibly the most different so far due to the fact it lands on the digital shelves in the form of a David Guetta remix, and it’s a remix that whips out all the clichéd hallmarks of a Guetta production whilst Avicii lifts the sound of Nancy Sinatra’s ‘Shot Me Down’, though it’s frankly better than the hash-up David Guetta recently did of the actual record. {rating}

Over the past twelve months I have reviewed 752 singles and EPs on my weekly All-Noise single reviews column so hopefully that puts me in a good position to create a best of list for 2013, comprised not necessarily of songs that have sold the most or charted the best, but have been the most […]
My round up of the new singles available for digital download this week. Amber Run – ‘Heaven’ Avicii meets Mumford and Sons meets Autotune in this cross pollination of genres. A slow burner, taking half of its running time to even touch on its chorus, fans of Coldplay and similar indie bands will seek refuge […]
