The debut Bleeding Knees Club album comes out in just over a month - check out the title track just below! Also, if you pre-order on JB, you get to be supes hipster n shit and get a tote bag. The album was recorded with Dev Hynes (Lightspeed Champion, Blood Orange) and should well be killer. [...]

The brilliant Clock Opera - you might have seen them headlining Castlepalooza in the summer - have got their hands on Dev Hynes's 'Champagne Coast' and taken it from the indie 80s right into the future with their remix. I would be lying if I said I knew that much [Read more]
Dev Hynes's latest project Blood Orange will release a new single Champagne Coast on Noveber 7th through Domino.
blood orange - "sutphin boulevard" (download) Blood Orange is the new solo project from Dev Hynes ( Lightspeed Champion / Test Icicles ). Really well-written, danceable pop songs. This record seems to have come out of nowhere and I've been listening to it non-stop. buy
Marina Diamondis would like the public to embrace her new Marina and the Diamonds ' single "Radioactive" as some part of an elaborate conceptual piece about a blonde-wigged "non-alter ego" alter-ego named 'Electra Heart' and the "corrupt side of American ideologies" and not a one-off go at exploring her more mainstream dance-pop urges, but really, can't she just say she wanted to see how catering to current radio tastes fit on her, deal with the inevitable "Sellout!!" backlash and keep it moving minus all the unnecessary "deep meaning" justifications (especially considering she wasn't all that [...]
New Music this Week by Nick Parker NEW MUSIC OF NOTE - A great deal of new music steals from the past, but the best of it re-forms its source material so that it never quite fits the old patterns. Blood Orange is that kind of project. I recall lots of classic 80s disco and dance [...]
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars Dev Hynes changes names like most of us change pants, you know, once or twice a week. First there was Test Icicles , then Lightspeed Champion , and now Blood Orange . While names may come and go, Dev will always be the same, and Coastal Groove , his new record, finds him sort of running in place, albeit a more 80s influenced place. When "Forget It" hits your speakers, those familiars won't find too [...]
Much ado has been made about Marina and the Diamonds ' resurgence to the tips of bloggers, well, fingertips. With teaser track / video for Fear and Loathing , she shortly followed up with "comeback" cut Radioactive , a surprising twist in her song repertoire whcih, we won't lie, has been hot on the repeat game over the past week. Now... whoa. Dev Hynes gets his hand in the mix and on the mic. Literally. [...]

As is customary Taylor has released one of the album tracks, Can't Believe, and he has announced details of a short tour
Blood Orange - Coastal Grooves If his musical record is anything to go by, raising Devonté Hynes must have been a trying challenge for his parents. In the space of six years he has (officially) released four albums under a minimum of four different guises – his stint as Lightspeed Champion arguably the most successful. Never seemingly able to sit still, he has also produced and written tracks for a host of other acts including Solange Knowles, Diana Vickers and Basement Jaxx. However, when approaching this album, you can't really [...]
Blood Orange is the new project of Dev Hynes, who you may have known previously as Test Icicles and Lightspeed Champion. However, his fur hat has been left behind along with these projects, unfortunately. Read more..
Devonte Hynes is a fairly creative fellow. When not whoring his talents to the likes of Florence Welch and Diana Vickers, he's been better known as Lightspeed Champion – a moniker with which he's released two albums of meticulously orchestrated pop. Now, in something of an about turn, he unleashes Blood Orange - a vehicle for laptop beats and funky self-indulgence. Take opening track 'Forget It'. Setting out a template of spindly guitars, clipped vocals and motorik drums, the song shows early promise before careening into the most throwaway of guitar solos. Sadly the bar remains low [...]
Lightspeed Champion's Dev Hynes takes on wild NewVillager song 'Lighthouse.'
The ever changing Dev Hynes has a released a new video for his latest project Blood Orange, which is for his new single Sutphin Boulevard, released on August 1st.
Theophilus London is building up a head of steam. His album, Timez Are Weird These Days, drops next month. This week, however, Flying Overseas, gets released via This Is Music. A bangtidy Riesling referencing summer rap anthem, if ever there was one. Big feats. from Dev & Solange.
