Guess what? New Emika! The sad ultra-talented producer has engineered another sullen yet beautiful tune in "Wicked Game." Though not as complex as her typical fare, this track accomplishes something new for her in that you can sort of dance to it, albeit very slowly and loosely. What was the titular wicked game that spooks the Berliner here? Frankly, I'd rather not know...
Last week, Hannah Alicia Smith aka Hannah Wants brought forth this resonant specimen of fluttering bass-house, in all it's British glory. My introduction to this house heroine came through the inclusion of her collaboration with Chris Lorenzo, " Dappy ", on the Dirtybird Records Christmas BBC Radio 1 takeover this past December. Today she released a beautifully chunky edit of The Weeknd 's " Wicked Games " which will be posted here shortly. Bless, Rader & Upside Down T [...]
2012 marked a time that was dominated by R&B revival, with artists like Frank Ocean and The Weeknd taking the reigns in transcending a mere novelty to occupy mainstream space. In doing so, the artists managed to niche out an unexplored sub-genre that has recently been referred to as PBR&B — a portmanteau of PBR, the beer associated with the hipster scene, and R&B. PBR&B, also sometimes called indie R&B, is a mixture of EDM, rock, hip hop, and commercial rhythm and blues. In the Hannah Wants and Chris Lorenzo [...]

Cross Record - Wicked Game ( Chris Isaak cover) Happy lovers day, lovers. Allow me to share this timely cover of one of the best lovers song of all time, covered and video-ized by Chicago’s Emily Cross , one of my favorite songwriters translating midwestern winters into deep lovers sounds. Video by lovers Emily Cross and Dan Duszynski . Previously: “ Cups in the Sink ”
Something different for a Sunday. A cover of Chris Isaak's classic weepie Wicked Games gets a downtempo remix from Alex McGhee. Free download. Wicked Games is one of those tunes that the wife likes and dislikes simultaneously. The Coves take it in a different direction with a female vocal and Alex McGhee resists the temptation to go electro all over it. Instead, he leaves vocal and piano front and centre, with beats on the relaxed side. Quite Sunday morningish. Blurb: So I had not heard the original Chris Isaak version of this song [...]

Having stopped by Jools Holland on Tuesday night, it would have been rude for Abel Tesfaye not to stop in on long-time fan Zane Lowe. Last night the ever enthusiastic Kiwi aired The Weeknd's debut Maida Vale session, which was every bit as jaw-dropping as his appearance on Jools. Tesfaye and his group played four songs from the reissued Trilogy, a collection of his three debut mixtapes. Listen to all four tracks below. Trilogy is out now.
If the remixing, re-packaging and re-releasing of his three mixtapes under the Trilogy umbrella and a slot on Jools Holland has told us anything, it's that Universal Republic think this is the right time for Abel Tesfaye to make his mainstream crossover. And there is no denying that his is music that deserves to be heard by infinetly more than currently are. Over the course of four-and-a-half minutes he stole the show from the clutches of the prorgramme's other performers of note, Lana Del Rey and Palma Violets. His voice, along with a beefy [...]
Como de costume, o talk show britânico Later... With Jools Holland levou dois ótimos artistas para seu palco na noite de ontem: The Weeknd e Lana Del Rey .

A música é uma faixa de Trilogy , compilação lançada no último dia 13 que reúne três discos do canadense (você pode conferir a nossa opinião sobre o trabalho aqui ).

Doing the rounds of publicity for his new album Trilogy , formerly-elusive R&B star The Weeknd made his TV debut on Later With Jools Holland . The Canadian singer performed a spellbinding live rendition of House Of Balloons highlight 'Wicked Games' which set the social media feeds alight with dumbfounded praise, even on a bill that also featured one Lana Del Rey . Sadly, due to the ol' watershed, we weren't allowed to witness the smoothster croon the lines "Let me mutha-effing love [...]

Estreia do The Weeknd na televisão, no programa britânico Later... With Jools Holland. O artista esteve na Europa divulgando seu primeiro álbum oficial, Trilogy , lançado no dia 13 de novembro.
Thx to BBC Radio 1Xtra for introducing us to this.
Wicked Games is probably one of my favorite songs of all-time, let alone, by The Weeknd. A quality piece of music transports me to another place entirely - emotionally, mentally, and physically. Wicked Games brings you to a place of understanding, not necessarily because the lyrics are relative to our lives, but because the idea of the song is such a basic human problem and emotion. After seeing The Weeknd two weekends ago in the Bronx, I admit that I was in awe of his performance but walked away feeling a little bit sad. Seeing him in [...]
The magical crooning voice of The Weeknd has revealed his mysterious face in his newest video for the track, " Wicked Games " this week, and its pretty sultry. The video features a seductive and scantily clad lady chasing Abel with her shadows. I can't think of a better suited video for this track. Enjoy the classy beauty below.

Coves "Wicked Game" Wicked Game (Chris Isaak cover) by COVES Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game" has been covered so many damn times I just naturally assume if a band exists they have done some sort of rendition of it at one point or another in their past (seriously though, type in "Wicked Game cover" in Google). With me being me , I would naturally gravitated toward the most mellow-UK-female-vocaly one of [...]
