Yuk jamie isaacs and the lank slacks

Listening to this...

 Yuk jamie isaacs and the lank slacks by djjdsports

I think Jamie Issacs (one to watch) and DJ JD Sports (Also another one to watch, but is already making his mark on the scene - as well as my heart! Shh!) made this together!
I am really looking forward to the new album that Mr DJ JD Sports will be releasing soon, well next year!

King Krule is back with a vengeance!

I feel slightly embarrassed saying this (and rightly so), I didn't realise that King Krule had soundcloud, or if I did - I never bothered following him. And now like an empty glassing filling up with water the regret starts to fill me.

King Krule said on his facebook that he's "back with a vengance!" (obviously we all know what he meant). Now, I don't know if its genuinely his account but he then posted on a different account a couple of days later the song that I'm about to post. 

I think its amazing. He has the right merge of all the correct instruments, vocally its perfect for the tune and just his general amazingness. 

I absolutely love this, and I love him! I'm just waiting for an album!

Mr Boykins exclaims that he's a 'Restless Dreamer'

As everyone knows, I'm a fan of the amazing Jesse Boykins III, he has just released another track on Soundcloud.



Give it a listen, and tell me what you think.

 Restless Dreamer [King re.fix] by Jesse Boykins III


It reminds me of old school RNB and slow tunes. Its so good! However, he's put it under the genre 'world soul'.

Dream On by Sublyminal

Sorry, its going to have to be just the link! I was trying to get the soundcloud player on to my blog, but I just can't do it! I can't remember how I did it before!

Dream On.mp3 LISTEN TO THE TRACK FIRST, FORMULATE YOUR OWN OPINION AND THEN READ MINE...

Name: Sublyminal
From: Atlanta, United States
Genre: Hip Hop 
Source: Soundcloud

Anyway, straight away I can inform you that the genre of this music is hiphop/rap (even though on soundcloud it says its hiphop/rock). So, if you are in to hiphop you might really enjoy this!

Secondly, it has loads of different samples mashed together! And this is what kinda put me of it (and may you, or it may not). I think it would be amazing if it started off with a mash up of samples, however when in to its own thing.

However, due to be being in to stuff that s slightly less organic at the moment I enjoyed the beat. It also has a very earlier 1999/2000 sound to it, so that was cool.

OVERALL:
Its not really my thing at the moment, but its an okay song.

Disclosure - The Face EP

Hello I'm back,

I thought I'd feed my blog readers with some more great music!
As many of you may (or may not) know, I am a huge fan of Disclosure. I found out about them some time last year, and ever since I have been hooked!



Anyway they have just released a new EP. On a random note: Doesn't the word "released" make it sound like an animal? Maybe it just me, but you could just imagine that like an animal, the EP being released from the simple knowledge of a couple of people, and then reaching the masses (with a beastly attitude)!

You can find this NEW EP (released just ONE DAY ago - roarrrr), on soundcloud (click on the word soundcloud to be directed directly to the wonderful, amazing, fantastic EP; that is 'The Face').

My favourite song on the EP is 'Control ft Ria Ritchie' - I don't know if that's because I had heard the others way before, and I had rinsed them!



Let me just give you a little background knowledge of the boys:

Called a "Dance pop duo" by the Guardian, so they obvious consist of two people. Those two people are brothers and they go by the name of Guy and Howard Lawrence.
I'm going to use a word that I have been using all week (because of MIC - Made In Chelsea), but they seem like a gregarious duo. They are both very young, both in age and on the scene.

To find out more about the band, go on to their facebook, twitter and soundcloud to follow any updates.

Jesse Boykins III - New music

Hello,

I'm back from the dark, winter cave (of my room). Revision is now over, and I don't have anymore exams! So, its happy dayz for me!
Now I suppose its about getting ready for YR13. Like the age 13, it sounds like such a big jump from YR12.


Anyway, enough about school, I have some NEW (yes that's right, NEW) music for my fellow bloggers and blog readers.




Have any of you heard of Jesse Boykins III? He's from Chicago, however, he spent most of his childhood growing up between towns and countries. Anyway, now he is a great explorer soul music, and he blew away the London fan in the Jazz Cafe with his song 'B4 the Night is Thru'.

Its just amazing!

He's voice is just so soulful, I think that it will bring a new kind of sound back. In addition to his beautiful sounding voice, he looks like he just has so much fun on stage. You could just imagine the atmosphere in his gigs (just completely electrified).


Anyway, I will leave you with a few links to do some exploring yourself:

Jesse Boykins III - Website

I believe you can download a free album - but don't quote me on it!

Jesse Boykins III - Soundcloud

On his soundcloud, you can find loads of remixes of 'B4 the night is thru' - and some other amazing songs!

Jesse Boykins III - Twitter

And obviously you can follow his updates.

Hope you have fun!

D'Angelo - Left & Right (James Blake Harmonimix)

D'Angelo - Left & Right (James Blake Harmonimix) by The 405

Tell me what you think? I dont know. I think it might be a marmite tune. You either like it or you dont, because of it being so different and slightly jumpy (I dont know, I cant find a word to describe it). It literally sounds "up and down".
S'alright I suppose.
