Because it's Valentines Day, and because Nina Nesbitt is a lovely person, she has uploaded a track called 'Standing On One Leg', which is bonus from her 'Live Take EP'. The EP is still available HERE and her new EP 'Apple Tree' will be out in April. Lots of love for this.

Spotted over @Soundhall, here is a live performance of a brand new track from singer/songwriter Sampha, which was premiered last night on UK label Young Turks' takeover show on FBi Radio. Most people will recognise this guy from his work with the Electronic producer SBTRKT, but 2012 is the year that Sampha is set to make his mark as a solo artist. Can't wait for his debut album.

And just like that, here it is, the highly anticipated collaborative EP from Ed Sheeran & Yelawolf, 'Slumdon Bridge'. Check out my thoughts on the EP HERE, and please enjoy. An amazing little project, check out 'Faces' after the jump.

Premiered tonight on Mistajam's show (again), here is the stunning second single from Jessie Ware's forthcoming debut album, which is produched by my man Julio Bashmore, and Dave Okumu. Talking about the song, Jessie said: "it’s a part two of a song I wrote with Julio Bashmore. Part one 'Sweet Talk' is quite flirtatious and more upbeat; it’s about a person that puts on the charm and the other person falls for them". Far too much love for this lady.

17 year-old singer/songwriter Nina Nesbitt recently took to her Facebook to announce the title of her forthcoming EP 'Apple Tree', which follows the well received 'Live Take EP'. Nina explained that the concept will become much more clear when you have heard the songs, but for her it's all about growing up, moving on and all the experiences/temptations along this journey. The title track will be the lead single, and it's set for an April release. Looking forward to this.

Gregory Porter is probably a name that doesn't mean much to most of you, but ever since the release of his debut Grammy-nominated album 'Water' in 2010, he has fast become one of the most sought after and well respected male Jazz vocalists in the world. His rich and soulful voice is what strikes you first, but the level of talent goes much deeper than that, with all of his original songs seeping class, sentiment and love - all boosted by the stunningly understated production and musicianship.
