This is big news people! Iggy Azalea has announced her newly inked deal with Island Def Jam Records. The Australian rapper took to the bible of all bibles, Twitter to announce the move. Iggy was originally signing a deal with Interscope Records, however this deal fell through back in 2012, so she continued to work through rapper T.I.'s label Hustle Gang, with which she released her EP "Glory", which included the track "Murda Bizness". The contract with Hustle Gang was not renewed and Iggy slowly parted from working with T.I's label and her debut LP "The [...]

In their third album, The Airborne Toxic Event play with their post-punk sound but consistently fall flat in their lyrics.

He crashed a brand new Ferrari last week , but no worries! Afrojack signed a worldwide exclusive deal with Universal and Island Records this week! This record deal will herald in the dutch born producers first attempt at an album as opposed to his on going and slightly sporadic EP approach to music which involved the only official remix for Psy's track 'Gangnam Style'. On signing the deal and taking on the new direction, the recent trap music producer said, “I want to take my [...]
As Afrojack heads down to Miami for his Ultra appearances both weekends and parties in between, it has been announced that he's signed a worldwide deal with Island Records and Universal Music Group. Under the deal " As Your Friend ," the first single off his debut album released by Wall Recordings, will have Island Records manage the track's promotion and sales in the U.S. and it will be released internationally by Wall Recordings, Islands Records UK, and UMG's PM:AM Recordings.

I'm guessing that most of you reading this haven't thought about, much less been entertained by classic fairy tales in a loooooong time. Well, AlunaGeorge is here to challenge that streak with their latest video for Attracting Flies . Rehashing the stories of our childhood, like Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel and Goldilocks, may seem like a risky idea but the dark, kind of twisted take fits really well with the song. AlunaGeorge is an electronic/alt-R&B project of Aluna Francis and George Reid. The duo hails [...]

Am I allowed to love a band and hate their PR strategy? I hope so, because, as I was doing a little research to write this post on a new AlunaGeorge track, I came across a pretty terrible PR idea. Okay, so AlunaGeorge's latest track is called "Attracting Flies." As a song title (not considering any part of the song itself), I'd give it a B-. Slightly above average. Way above K$sha, who might win for worst song titles ("Tik Tok," "We R Who We R," "Blah Blah Blah"). [...]

While I've liked most everything I've heard from AlunaGeorge thus far, "Attracting Flies" is the first HOLY SHIT song of theirs that has hit my ears. It's beat and vocals are butter slick, lettuce fresh and bubblegum catchy - it's the kind of track you need to instantly repeat as soon as it's over. Their debut Body Music doesn't come out until the summer, which is criminal but also perfect timing for something of this caliber.

It has been quite a busy last few months for AlunaGeorge . The pair team up with Disclousure for "White Noise", which might be our favorite track so far in 2013 and have released a couple of other songs that have garnered heavy praise. They are now ready to finally release their proper debut, Body Music , on July 1st via Island Records. Listen to the banger of a first single from that album "Attracting Flies".
Ca va très vite pour AlunaGeorge , le duo composé de Aluna Francis et George Reid ! Alors qu'ils viennent de faire une collaboration assez fructueuse avec Disclosure sur White Noise , les voilà qu'ils viennent de révéler un tout morceau nommé Attracting Flies . Ce magnifique track fait parti de leur premier album, Body Face , qui sortira le 1 Juillet sur Island Records . Concernant le single, il sortira quant à lui le 10 Mars sur le même label avec des remixes de Baaeur et [...]

Attracting Flies is AlunaGeorge's latest single taken from their debut album Body Music, out July 1. Yes, it is a bit poppier for Nite Versions but we definitely like them more after their song with Disclosure, White Noise . The EP includes remixes from Baauer, S-Type and more (to be announced soon!) and it will be released March 1, 2013.
We are only rewinding back a couple of months for Syn Cole's remix of Kerli's "The Lucky Ones" because, even we can admit - we missed this one. It didn't catch our attention until Avicii featured it on his December Levels podcast, but it stood out to us as one of the cleanest progressive cuts we've heard in awhile. Syn Cole's silky smooth production style works well with Kerli's pop vocals to deliver a prime time dance track. Melodic builds, subtle stutters, and Kerli's larger than life vocal morph the original into a track suitable for [...]

I will not bore you with my usual chatter... Here are my top 4 records of 2012. 4. Fire Island Pines Rickie Lee Jones ep: "These days, things rarely end up in your hands. The world is firmly disconnected: Emails have the power to fire people, books are replaced by LCD tech gadgets and photography is replaced by pixel numbers. Fire Island Pines does not like this turn of events, it likes the feeling of the hard copy. The band would prefer [...]

It used to be quite a rarity for a major label artist to follow up a debut album with an EP, and it would be an even more surprising feat for an artist who sells out tours across Europe and was a strong contender for this year's Mercury Prize. Nevertheless, Cornwall's Ben Howard has done just that. Enter 'The Burgh Island EP'. Named after a small tidal island off the coast of South Devon, the EP echoes the earthy, vibrant quality of all Howard’s music, showcasing a truly beautiful style that is sure to be enduring [...]

This is the newest track dropped by Island Records , a record label based out of London, England. The artist on the track is Willy Moon . Willy grew up in Wellington, New Zealand and when he was 17 he moved to London, which is where he now bases out of. After the song plays for a minute you'll start to realize DJ Cable Remixes this one TrapStyle . High hats, clap tracks, and booming bass make this one called Yeah Yeah a trap masterpiece, or a trapsterpiece as [...]

This electro distortion of vocals displayed in 'Your Drums, Your Love' is sure to be the next auto tune craze, but I'm lovin the hell out of it for now. And the nice thing with this compared to other distortionists is that Reid (producer) doesn't mess with Aluna's fiine vocals, but leaves the chopping & skewing for the chorus. As for Aluna, I'm still on the fence with a few British accents, but I warmed up to her's quicker than most. Love the vid too. Click here to view [...]

El último single de la gran Jessie Ware , 'Night Light', ya ha recibido el disco de Hot Chip y una remezcla sutil y conmovedora de Perseus. Ahora, Wild Beasts van mas allá y añaden incluso sus propias voces melancólicas y poderosas a este remix íntimo, y casi reconstruido más que remezclada. Este R&B sensual y nocturno es un lienzo que los baluartes del Indie británico saben aprovechar, y muy bien. Mantienen esa sensación de decadencia pero, al mismo tiempo, el grupo consigue aportar un latido fuerte [...]
