It is unmistakably Florence And The Machine. After her small stint with a Rascal and her award winning debut ‘Lungs’, this lady is most definitely welcomed back with open arms.

Welcome Reality by Nero | Album Review

The rest of the album flows pretty much seamlessly from one track into the next like an entire Nero symphony. A rocky, punky, electro, dubstep symphony. Symphonic, DubRock, Electro-Punk even. Then, all of a sudden, striking piano chords sever the mood. It is then brought back to life with the introduction of an already classic single, ‘Me & You’.

The ‘High Flying Birds’ are not 6 air-hostesses, they are all quality musicians in their own right who, in a way, simply asked to be in Noel’s band. The ‘Birds include Mike Roe who played keyboards on the ‘Be Here Now’ tour for Oasis, Russell Pritchard from The Zutons and even a Liverpudlian guitarist named Macca

Forget Yourself / Wiyoo by Ronika | EP Review

You just can’t ignore the fact that the 80′s were great for music. The insurgence of synthesisers taking over from generic musicians after the mass movement of disco in the late 70′s, it was then when music changed and is a prominent part of dance music history. With the likes of Chromeo injecting their saucy disco-punk nowadays, La Roux dabbling with the same it’s good that the taste and flavour of this era is living on. It appears that it still is within new artist, Ronika.

Take It Back ft Shola Ama by Toddla T | The Original & Dillon Francis Remix | Single Review | Official Music Video | Official Free Download

Sometimes when you’re struggling to muster some motivation for yourself, you need a kick up the backside to get you going. Usually it can be harsh words from your partner. Threatening action from your boss. The likelihood of being grounded. Or, it can just take a good tune.

The Fall by Gorillaz | Album Review

Music can very much be a motivator. Using the rhythmic vibrations to get your heart pumping, your mind set ready for the challenge that awaits you. Then, on the other hand, it can chill you out, put you into a state of sedation and bring you back from that challenge that you had to contest with earlier.

On A Mission by Katy B | Album Review

First, don’t think that this is full of dubstep because that would be wrong. Secondly, think about the sweet, subtle, seductive ways of ghetto-free RnB, UK style. That would be appropriate, I reckon.

The Place We Ran From by Tired Pony | Album Review

Once again, I’ve come across a song which has stopped me in my tracks due to the sheering chills emitting and pulsing up and down my spine from the top of my neck to the tips of my nails on each limb.

The Defamation Of Strickland Banks by Plan B | Album Review

Plan B has managed to create an album which has all the traits from an excellent hip-Hop record but the big band sound, the pianos, the acoustic guitars are not that new. The main difference I noticed on this are the greater resemblances to the 60′s Soul and Motown sound. That takes a greater amount of maturity to pull off. His vocal talents bounce between the Brixton Grime and a likeness to The Temptations.

Lungs by Florence and The Machine | Album Review

Florence Welch has a delectable voice full of passion, power and screams out her soul beautifully with harmony, strength and subtlety. Her range is quite impressive with lyrics that are honest, epical and anapestic.
