Middle x Street

Been waiting to hear Jamie Woon’s debut album, Mirrorwriting, for a very long time, and I’m happy to say that it lived up to all my expectations. It’s like Nicolas Jaar & James Blake’s albums merged together, but about 10x better - everything about is stunning, and you can see exactly why it took 3/4 years to make. Below you can hear two of my favourite tracks from the album and you can visit PinBoard to read a review that I fully concur with. Will definitely be one of THE stand out albums of 2011 - be sure to get your copy on the 14th.

A Litte Bit Better

Always had time for Daniel Merriweather and his music, but Mark Ronson has gone off the boil massively in the past few years. This sees them team up for 1 of 4 tracks that they have cooked up for Russell Brand’s new film, Arthur. Cool track, which is better than anything off Ronson’s latest LP.

Utopia

Here is the title track from Footprintz new EP, Utopia, which was released on Visionquest this Monday. As the release notes explain; sounding like Hot Chip in paradise, Hercules in a new Love Affair with a euphoric LCD Soundsystem, Utopia is the first step in a great musical journey for this magnetic partnership. Charming guitar led melodies strung out over blissful poetic lyrics and dreamy synths, Utopia is the embodiment of its definition. Beautiful stuff.

Funny How Time Slips Away

My favourite track from the soulful jazz singer Hanne Boel’s latest album, The Shining Of Things, which was released a few days ago. She is Danish and since her debut has released over 10 solo albums. This is so sick.

Hot, unique and talented; Alex and Jade are a brand new pop duo who go by the name of Oh My! They are two girls from up North who are currently in a London based studio working on their debut album, and have been joined by my good friend Example. Below is their first piece of music, Run This Town, which you can download HERE and watch the promo video for it HERE. Excited to hear more from these two in the future.

Thinking Of You

Jack Leon Colton is a name that not many of you will recognise; I only came across his music a couple of weeks ago after a studio session that he did on UStream with Mr. Ed Sheeran. He has a very unique vocal tone and is an extremely talented lyricist, as you can hear on this new track that he uploaded to SoundCloud a few days ago. Look out for more from Jack in the near future. Talent.
