LION - Not Your Fetish [Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

This record is FIERCE. It pulses in a way that its impossible to not move your body and its lyrics are razor sharp and to the point. The amount of times I’ve had someone be like “OMG i love your hair, can I touch it”... NO!!! ‘I don’t care if you’re curious’ is a line I think a lot of people will resonate. What this record does so well is still keep its swagger and sexiness whilist talking about issues we all face i this world. I expect to hear this on every dance floor *I’m looking at you DJ’s*

CrashMonkeys - LA Trash [Review]

Rating: 3 out of 5

This record is catchy and tongue in cheek in the way LCD Soundsystem was. The production might not be as infectious but this chorus is made to screamed at a packed show. The CrashMonkey tap into the kind of nostalgia that feels forever cool. The vocals are a little off but I think thats part of the charm and is kinda like LA in a way, its a little off but something about it just keeps you coming back.

Tyte x Wizz Havinn - Ask Around [Music Video Review}

Rating: 3 out of 5

I’m loving the revival of fun in Hip-Hop. This record just makes you feel good, and makes your shoulders bounce uncontrollably. The bars are dripped in swagger and flair with a host of tongue in cheek one liners. It’s chorus is so infectious you’ll be texting everyone you know to “Ask Around” about Tyte.

OXLADE Ft. Dave - Intoxycated [Review]

Rating: 3 out of 5

Picture the scene. You’re in a swanky bar in London, a rum & coke in one hand, doing gun fingers with the other... and the person of your dreams has their back on your front and your dancing until the early hours. Intoxycated is one of those lowkey club anthems with a chorus you can scream at the top of your lungs riding the wave of the night. The verses are smooth and every melody feels plucked from King Davids harp.

Paul Russell - Lil Boo Thang [Review]

Rating: 3 out of 5

Sometimes a record can be so infectious it can seep in the very fabric of the ether. Lil Boo Thang is everywhere and well its for good reason... it’s fun! Music went through a period of taking it self too seriously and Lil Boo Thang harks back to the funk days of just making you feel good and wanna dance. We need that right now.

Will Linley - Tough (The Girls Song) [Video Review]

Rating 3 out of 5

Will Linley delivers a slice of near perfect summer pop. The interpolation of “girls just wanna have fun” by pop ICON Cindy Lauper brings a fresh take on the phrase.
