Legendary dance duo Orbital are making a welcomed return to dance music in April with their first album for 8 years. Called 'Wonky' it will be the 8th album from the duo and you can get a sample of what's to come by listening to 'Never' below, which from early impressions shows the enigmatic duo might have finally mellowed a bit. It's going to be released April 1st and features collaborations with Zola Jesus and the hotly tipped UK rapper Lady Leshurr (so not bothered). Wonky was recorded in Orbital's Brighton [...]

You know, I've always liked comedic actor Jason Segel . He was astoundingly funny in Forgetting Sarah Marshall , and is absolutely brilliant as Marshall Eriksen on How I Met Your Mother . But this... this puts my fandom for him over the top. Indiana University student, Chelsea Gill wrote an inspired song to the actor asking him to have a drink with her; "Have a drink with me, oh Mr. Segel can't you see I'm trying so hard to impress. [...]

I love 19602s Bollywood cinema and its many great soundtracks. I also begrudgingly enjoy finding out about new songs via TV commercials. So, understandably, I was giddy when Heineken mined Bollywood psychedelia to soundtrack it's latest commercial " The Date ". The ad-execs responsible for this sure picked a damn good song with "Jaan Pehechan Ho" sung by Mohammed Rafi. The California surf-guitar meets big band swing meets Bollywood exotica is a vibe for the ages. The song is originally from the 1965 Indian film Gumnaam , but was also featured as the lead in for the immensely enjoyable [...]

Since this track by Alaska In Winter was uploaded to SoundCloud just yesterday I thought it was a new one. However I've just found out that it was included on an EP that was released as far back as in June (I received thousands of emails, but why didn't any inform me about this release?). Also learned that Brandon Bethancourt has been battling all kinds of personal problems, probably explaining the EP title ? Demons sounds pretty good mixing electronic sounds with Balkan [...]

Scottish rockers The Twiligh Sad have announced a fair old jaunt around the UK to coincide with the release of their new album No One Can Ever Know , which is set for release via FatCat Records on February 6th. No One Can Ever Know, the Sad's third LP is a huge leap forward for the band; more restrained guitars than we're used to, allow the dark synths and infectious melodies to take centre stage and we for one can't wait to see how this transfers to the live stage. [...]

We a few hours late for this one, but we can't miss on a Black Star release, specially produced by Madlib.

Drivin' & Dreaming In just a week my US tour begins. December is already packed with gigs all over the Sunshine State (Florida). I mean it's the place to be when my home country is all dark and cold, right! So I packed my bags and flew over the ocean and here I am. I just bought an RV that I'm fixing up so I can have somewhere to lay my hat on the road. It's an old Gulfstream Conquest, and it turned out to be a bit more work that I had hoped for. But [...]

Me in front of a huge Christmas tree in Florida Too early? Well here in Florida, where the sun is shining every day and there's no sign of any snow people have already started putting up their Christmas decorations. You guys know that my tradition is to release a Christmas song every year and I just thought I'd let you know that I will this year too! This year I'm happy to announce that the charity connected to the song will be Action Aid . Action Aid works in [...]
