shady sisters

Our very own Scissor Sisters are back! And the new track is positively Cazwell-esque, building into some satisfying vocal swoops from Azealia and Mssr. Shears in the chorus. Liking it more the more I listen.

  Scissor Sisters f/Azealia Banks - "Shady Love"

Free Chairlift on iTunes

Chairlift

Chairlift have gone downright early 80s perky with their new album Something, even enlisting uber-Brit producer Alan Moulder (who's credits are legion but for the purposes of this post, let's point to his work with Erasure, Depeche Mode and Shakespear's Sister) to brighten up their new wave mix.

 AND you can even get "I Belong In Your Arms" for free on iTunes here.

 My favorite track thus far is "Met Before." Check it out below.

 


Ladyhawke is back

We've been without the "Paris Is Burning" songstress for far too long so I'm thrilled to hear some music from her new album Anxiety which comes out next month. I like the verses more than the chorus but this'll be one to grow on....

Ladyhawke - "Black, White and Blue"

Mars landing

I don't really like Bruno Mars. All the big singles have fallen flat for me....just doesn't float my boat.

So when I head this track out this week....and asked who it was i was a bit floored to hear that Mr. Mars was the featured player. (I think it's Mr. Green though that really makes it.)

Now I realize this has been out for eons. (My drinking buddy gave me the 'i can't believe you don't know this' look). But what can I say, I've pretty much avoided all of his stuff...So if you don't know it already maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised too.

Bruno Mars f/Ceee-Lo Green and b.O.b - "The Other Side"
