In return for Norwegian Cosmic genius Lindstrm reMixing here current single, You (Ha Ha Ha) , ElectroPop princess Charli XCX has teamed up with Twin Idol to drop a radical reworking of Lindstrms Fr-I-Kl . And when we say radical reworking, we really mean it, Fr-I-Kl , is Im sure you remember is a bright, optimistic slab of funky galactic Disco. This is a bass heavy ElectroPop haze. So what we have here is an R&B flavoured Bass track with and ElectroPop vibe.

Honestly, True Romance didn't offer me much that felt romantic or true. Aside from a few well-written and produced singles, this album mostly dishes out cookie cutter electropop with very little flare.

Estourou de vez. Preparem os ouvidos (ou os olhos) para ver como a mocinha Brooke Candy vai ser comparada (estupidamente?) com a Lady Gaga . Excentrismos parte, Brooke a definio perfeita para a palavra atitude. A nova queridinha do mundo da msica, da moda e dos hipsters vem de Los Angeles, diretamente da cena stripper da cidade.

"Girlsongs" is an incredible cover album by the Austin based group SPEAK. This four man group from Texas does an a capella version of six popular songs originally performed by female singers.

SXSW Interviews: Charli XCX is a post from Indie Houston - Music - Technology - Press - Independent - Media - Houston, Texas By Ivan Guzman Charli XCX and I took a seat out in the glistening sun at 10 AM on my second day of the adventure that was SXSW.

Dawno nie wyciubialimy nosa z muzycznej Ameryki Poudniowej, a jeli ju wyciubialimy, to nie dzielilimy si z Wami zastan emocj. W ramach przeprosin Charli XCX - dziewczynka odpowiedzialna midzy innymi za wietnego singla, do ktrego odnoniki znajdziecie poniej. Prychacie pewnie na "dziewczynk" i zarzucacie protekcjonalny ton, ale - hola, hola - ona urodzia si w latach DZIEWIDZIESITYCH!

Matt Spalding At the risk of being overly literal, it probably goes without saying that a band called Editors would hardly be averse to making changes. But the Birmingham band's decision to push synthesizers to the fore on their third album, 20092s In This Light And On This Evening , might have been a little more stylistic revision than they or their fans bargained for. It didn't fare nearly as well, commercially-speaking, as either of its predecessors - fans apparently preferred them when they were aping Joy Division rather than New [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-06T01:41:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4933344/charli-xcx-true-romance-album-review/
When youre the co-writer of Icona Pops smash hit I Love It there are going to be high expectations placed on your solo album. A 20 year old, English artist Charlotte Aitchison a.k.a Charli XCX has exceed even the highest hopes with True Romance. Charli XCX cut her first album at age 14 and since then has released 4 free mixtapes via soundcloud all of which displace her diverse talent. True Romance eloquently showcases a blend a of musical influences from electronica to hip hop and in doing so gives it a sound all its own.

Judging by the size of the venues she has been playing, it would be fair to say Marina Diamandis has had a good year. Last summer the pop songstress, who goes by Marina and the Diamonds , sold out the 1,100-capacity Fillmore. Now shes back, still promoting 2012s Electra Heart album, and has sold out the twice-as-large Warfield. Her current tour was booked in larger venues throughout the U.S. Oh my God; I dont think two years ago I would have thought Id have been playing 1,000-capacity venues, the 28-year-old Welsh [...]]]>
