The Child Of Lov es un tipo que ha estado haciendo bastante ruido desde hace poco más de año y medio, así que lo más seguro es que más de uno de ustedes ya lo tiene muy bien ubicado pero si no es así, pues este es el momento perfecto para echarle una oreja al soul que maneja dentro de cada uno de sus tracks, sobretodo cuando ha reclutado para su álbum debut a mentes como DOOM, y al mismisimo Damon Albarn . "One Day" es el nombre en el que Albarn hace su aparición especial, y puede que [...]

• The Child Of Lov - One Day (featuring Damon Albarn)

We're not really ones for posting grainy fan-footage of gigs. But THIS. This is something else entirely. The Britpop fallout between Blur and Oasis has been well documented and famously came to a head when Noel Gallagher said he would like Damon Albarn to "get AIDS and die". That the two would ever share a stage seemed, not just unlikely, but damn near impossible. However, over the last few years the tensions seemed to be easing, with both parties admitting regret over the whole affair. The reconciliation was completed this week when the two performed the [...]

There's no question about it: Blur is back! While it may be a while before Damon Albarn works to release another Gorillaz album, it's great that he's diversifying his repertoire with a solo album, production on that Bobby Womack album, and now these new tracks that are set for a 73 release in August . Album titles and release dates aren't being discussed yet, but hopefully that's coming soon. To talk about the two tracks individually, "the Puritan" has a quirky, fun beat that I'm sure most people are going to directly link to a [...]

Ahead of their 2012 London Olympics gig and their 24 years boxset, Blur have unveiled two new tracks via the medium of twitter. Well, they announced and linked them on twitter, but actually posted them on youtube. Watch 'The Puritan' and 'Under the Westway' below. The tunes are Blur's first new material since 20102s Record Store Day release 'Fool's Day' and could be possibly included on upcoming Blur 21 , which includes all seven Blur albums as well as 15 discs worth of extras. Stream/Watch:

Today, Blur performed two new tracks by the way of a live stream. Let's say that again: today, Blur performed TWO NEW TRACKS. If you missed that however, we have both tracks for you, in their entirety below. First of all, anyone expecting another Song 2 of Beetlebum will go away dissapointed. 'Under The Westway' is a forelorn piano ballad with Damon Albarn's croon cutting through some bleak yet tender sounds. 'The Puritan' is a little more upbeat and features an unrelenting synth motif. Both songs will be available to download and [...]

Bobby Womack 's latest album, the Damon Albarn -produced The Bravest Man In The Universe , is out today on XL Recordings , and to go alongside it, we've g0t a brand new video for yet another stunning track from the record, "Whatever Happened To The Times" . I haven't had the privilege to listen to the album yet, as it's not readily available here in Spain and we weren't fortunate enough to get an advance, but judging by what we've [...]

Back in March, we received the news that soul veteran Bobby Womack would be releasing a new LP on June 11 in the U.K. and June 12 in the U.S via XL Recordings. Titled The Bravest Man in the Universe , the album was produced by Damon Albarn of Blur and Gorillaz fame, with whom Womack has collaborated on 20102s Gorillaz record Plastic Beach , as well as its followup, The Fall . We've already heard " Please Forgive My Heart ," and now we have our second taste [...]

Last week we were treated to an impressive lineup on Jools Holland with Alabama Shakes , Jack White , and Grimes , and this week's episode was just as good. St. Vincent played "Cruel" from her latest album "Strange Mercy" , Damon Albarn dropped "Apple Carts" from his "Dr Dee" [...]

Listen to Damon Albarn 's new album "Dr Dee" below. Trying to keep his name as one of music's most notable and prolific artists, Damon Albarn 's ( Blur , Gorillaz , Lana Del Rey ) latest album, which isn't so much a solo album but instead a by-product of an opera he had his hand in making with Rufus Norris . Based on the 16th century philosopher, mathematician, astronomer, and aide to [...]

Listen to Damon Albarn 's new song "The Marvelous Dream" below, taken from the album "Dr Dee" . It might be difficult for you to find someone else in music these days who's working harder than Damon Albarn , what with having his hand in pies with Blur , Gorillaz , Lana Del Rey , his supergroup with Flea and Tony Allen ,  the whole Congo [...]

Gorillaz. LCD Soundsystem. Andre 3000. Pretty good line up ey? They've hooked up to produce a track for Converse -  for some reason one of very few brands that it seems perfectably for musicians to cosy up to. Best of all, it sounds exactly like you'd expect a song from these three to sound like, or as Converse themselves put it:  "DoYaThing gets freakish as it brings together the perfect cocktail of Gorillaz, Andre 3000 and James Murphy." Listen below, and DoYaThing.

Tweet This evening Damon Albarn and Graham Coxon performed live as part of War Child 's pre- Brit Awards show taking place on Tuesday. Blur reunited in 2009 and then released a new song in 2010 as part of Record Store day called "Fool's Day" , so this is the first new music from the band [...]

Semana con semana Lana Del Rey sigue dando declaraciones en las que en lugar de regresarnos esa 'luz de esperanza' (nah), sigue echandose mas tierra asi misma ya que como recordaran, despues del fiasco de su presentacion en SNL, aparecio una entrevista que realizo para Fuse en la que mencionaba que en realidad no podiamos esperar mucho de su show en vivo ya que ella es mas una 'artista de estudio' y, en mi opinion, pienso que eso es pura mierda y ademas tambien vendria representando una falta de respeto para las personas que han estado remezclando sus [...]

Tweet If you haven't heard of DRC Music yet, it's basically Damon Albarn ( Blur , Gorillaz ) getting together with a bunch of famous producers and artists, flying out to the Democratic Republic Of Congo, and hooking up with local artists and musicians to record an album, and this is the first video of their meeting for the track "Hallo". Tweet This! [...]

Last month we told you about Blur / Gorillaz lead singer Damon Albarn's new project recording an album in the Democratic Republic of Congo with a few friends including Kwes , Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs , Marc Antoine , Jo Gunton , producer Dan The Automator (Franz Ferdinand), Jneiro Jarel , and XL Recordings founder Richard Russell . Now Albarn and his pals have finished the album, titled ' Kinshasa One Two ', with a planned digital release set for October 4 [...]

• DRC Music - Hallo (featuring Tout Puissant Mukalo and Nelly Liyemge)

Tweet Did you wait five years for this album? You might be disappointed. The story, for those who don't know it, goes like this: in 2006, around a year after releasing his well received debut album "We Have Sound", Tom Vek disappeared from the music scene. No new singles, EPs, collaborations or even remixes. Not a peep was heard from the man until Zane Lowe announced he had an exclusive new single from him earlier this year. Turns out Vek was busy [...]
