Watch: Come on Live Long – Little Ones

Watch: Come on Live Long – Little Ones Dubliners Come on Live Long have just released the official video for 'Little Ones', the first single from their forthcoming debut album Everything Fall .

The album is due sometime in the spring (April or May), and was recorded at Orphan Studios with Gavin Glass and Scott Halliday, produced and mixed by Conor Gaffney (Nouveaunoise) and mastered by Holger Lagerfeldt.

Stream: David Bowie – Where Are We Now?

Stream: David Bowie – Where Are We Now? David Bowie has just turned 66, and is back with his first single and album in over a decade. 'Where Are We Now?' is taken from upcoming March album The Next Day . So where is he now? Berlin. Obviously. The new track has elements of Lou Reed and John Cale, and even a bit of Bowie of old, but it's nothing earth-shattering from the man who sold the world. Watch 'Where Are We Now?'

Download: Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared – Cautious EP Firstly, I have no idea who this is by. It's tagged "electronic" and "Ireland" on bandcamp. I know no more than that. Only that the artist is called don't hug me i'm scared and the two songs are packaged together as cautious . But I do love finding a gem, and that's what these two tunes are.

I'll say no more, just have a listen. cautious by don't hug me [...]
