My round up of the new singles available for digital download this week. Above and Beyond – ‘Mariana Trench’ Inspired by the geographical landmark, ‘Mariana Trench’ captures the feel of the sea very well and has shades of underwater levels from mid-90s video games mixed with the best of Robert Miles. As a fully instrumental […]
With Christmas fast approaching and the thick end of 2011 behind us, it’s time to take stock and look back at the albums that soundtracked our year – and what better way to do that than a good old fashioned top 10 list!? We’ve gone back through all of our album reviews over the past […]
G.O.O.D. Music – Cruel Summer {rating} Buy: G.O.O.D. Music – Cruel Summer On paper it sounds like a good idea – the self-styled ‘Prince’ of hip-hop shaking off the seriousness of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and getting the cream of his G.O.O.D. Music label together for a more spontaneous sounding album aimed squarely at […]
As befitting a track that features both Jay Z and Justin Timberlake, ‘Holy Grail’ – taken from Jigga’s recent Magna Carta Holy Grail album – has been given a very slick and expensive looking promo video.

Part one of my round up of the new singles available for digital download this week. AlunaGeorge – ‘You Know You Like It / Bad Idea’ It does feel like a real let down when you get this sort of musical sequel coming on the coat-tails of ‘Your Drums, Your Love’ and the excellent ‘Attracting […]
I believe there is no better place than Paris to perform the hyped track “Apeshit” live for the very first time. Last Sunday July 15 will be written in the history as not just the French soccer team won the FIFA World cup 2018, but also the day powerhouse duo Beyoncé and Jay-Z performed […]
Jay-Z – Magna Carta Holy Grail {rating} Buy: Magna Carta… Holy Grail If you’ve been following Jay-Z’s publicity campaign for this album you’ll know he’s big on establishing ‘new rules’ for the music industry. As well as helping to align this release with Kanye’s ‘challenging’ Yeezus, these ‘new rules’ also amount to him selling off […]
