So every so often we like to ask our favourite artists to come up on the blog and write a little something about the incredible album they have just released. While I'm sure no one could ever get tired of our incredible writing style and razor sharp insight into the creative offerings floating around the internet, these features always excite me. Today we have Belleruche' s Ricky Fabulous talking us through 3 tracks ( Stormbird, Afan and 16 Minutes ) from their new album, Rollerchain . Absolute pleasure. [...]
Tru Thoughts' Belleruche are now on to their fourth full-length release and they've made a concerted effort to shake things up a bit. We all know that they do the DIY electro-soul thing well, so it seems that they wanted to show us they can make a darker, more complex sound work too. Luckily, they don't disappoint. The percussion-led songs from 270 Stories and Turntable Soul Stories are replaced by a bass-driven, smokier sound. The production values on Rollerchain are dramatic: it no longer feels like a small band making an album on a budget. [...]
270 Stories , the debut record from Londoners Belleruche got a lot of play 'round here, and we're happy to report the band has a proper followup in the chamber. Rollerchain will be released on May 7th, and second single 16 Minutes is an enticing bit of lo-fi XXish pop that benefits from a skeevy stop-motion video.

Belleruche's new single "Stormbird" comes in advance of their upcoming LP, Rollerchain . http://www.belleruche.com/
A couple of weeks ago I went to the Jazz Café for HMV's next big thing, whilst the show was undoubtedly stolen by Belleruche (hardly surprising what with them being and the headlining act) a special mention needs to be made to Anchorsong. Anchorsong (aka Masaaki Yoshida) is a Japanese artist and producer who uses a sampler, a keyboard and some sort of black magic to create incredible electro music. It's rare enough to find this kind of music that I'll listen to let alone really like, but this really hits the spot. Ghost Town and Plum [...]
Belleruche have seemingly joined the campaign to bring 1980s style electro back once and for all. But they don't always play this way, with experimental, hip-hop and soul fusion being their usual shtick. The trio formed in London and have been knocking around since 2005 and have released three albums. Their LP 'Rollercha... Read more..
Belleruche live… unbelievable. The Jazz Café in Camden is always a great venue but it takes someone truly special to get the crowd going to the extent that they did. Great songs, great vibe and a fantastic performance made for a really unforgettable evening. I'll be buying the new album as soon as it comes out in March and I'll most definitely be seeing them when there UK tour makes it down to Scala on the 31 st of May. I liked them so much that I asked them to send over a few songs that they like (because [...]
I was tottering about on the internet today and all of a sudden this song appeared on my Soundcloud . I'm a big fan of Belleruche (I wrote this a little while ago) and thoroughly enjoyed their last album 270 Stories . They're signed to Tru Thoughts, a really hard-working Brighton based label who's artists rarely disappoint. This new single is a precursor to Belleruche's fourth studio album, called Rollerchain and it's due out at [...]

Belleruche's new single "Stormbird" is from the upcoming album Rollerchain , set for release during the summer.

I saw a woman the other day walking her dog. Except there was no dog. She had a lead that was pulling one way and the other, a tolerant, humorous frown on her haggard face, and a confidence that suggested a well-practiced route. She looked happy, more or less. Could she have been? Listening to the porcelain, paranoid pop of new London act Belleruche reminds me of this strange scene; the trio sound disaffected, but contentedly, seductively so.

The critically acclaimed third album from glam hop soul trio Belleruche is going global, as 270 Stories, their third album, will be released worldwide April 4. "The three met in a London street market whilst running from the law, banks and parents. Whilst holed up in DJ Modest's flat, he and Fabulous noticed Kathrin singing whilst making tea. They formed a plan and the band was born out of a shared love of old vinyl, true funk and real soul music." Troysnoise's first introduction [...]
Those familiar with the funky, jazzy Belleruche of "Minor Swing" might be slightly surprised by their new single, but have no fear. "3 Amp Fuse" ably maintains the attitude and catchiness of their previous releases, while taking things in a very different direction. Kudos to this most 21st century of combos for allowing themselves to evolve, particularly when the turntablist swing sound has recently climbed shamelessly into bed with the zeitgeist and steadfastly refused to get out.

We've been keeping tabs on Londoners Belleruche since before they dropped 270 Stories , a record that is pricking up ears across the Atlantic, but still treading water here in the colonies. In an attempt to change that, the band will be dipping their toes into SXSW this year, right in time to coincide with the album's third single, 3 Amp Fuse . 3 Amp Fuse is a taunt groovin' tune that highlights the band's R&B chops, and of course, their penchant for making cherry videos.

Some more half decent, decent, and downright entertaining videos for you to check out. The Agitator's new single Say NO! is a politically charged call to arms set against an equally radical new musical style. Not a guitar in sight, just front man Derek Meins' force-of-nature voice accompanied by Robert Dylan Thomas and T-Train on thunderous double drums. Pared down and primal! a Bergen, Norway-based four-piece The Megaphonic Thrift have released a brand [...]
