We’re not massive fans of M.I.A, but we do like anything to do with music video king-pin Romain Garvas – his video CV reads like a who’s who of cool: Justice’s Stress and A Cross The Universe, DJ Mehdi’s ‘Signatune’ and, of course, M.I.A’s controversial ‘Born Free’ are amongst some of his finest work.
Not content with releasing details of their long-awaited new album ‘Wonky’ as well as announcing four UK Summer festival headline appearances this week, Orbital today unveil the official video for new track ‘Straight Sun’.
The Scissor Sisters will be making a return in 2012 with their fourth studio album, from what we’ve heard they’ve ditched their overly camp style for a fusion of hip-hop and dance music courtesy of Azealia Banks and Berlin banger Boys Noise – who has been tasked to produced the bands new, yet-to-be-named, album.
M83′s new double album ‘Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming’ was finally released today and a new video has been made for the seminal hit ‘Midnight City’ we’ll get around to reviewing the album sometime this week.
The inevitable happened last night as Justice’s second album ‘Audio, Video, Disco’ leaked online – now we do not condone music piracy – but realise that it’s inevitable that you want to hear it – we know how you roll. Well, the lesser of two evils would be to stream it, right ? Well, someone has uploaded a stream on soundcloud, so you can peep the release below. If you like it, which you should, buy the damn CD. We’ve got it on pre-order, so there’s no reason why you shouldn’t too. We’ve reviewed it and fell head-over-heals for the duo’s mature rock opus. Now it’s time for you to decide for yourselves. Hit or miss?
Justice’s second album was always going to create a bit of a stir, and if you’re expecting Cross 2.0 then you might want to get your coat. It’s not. But, it is the soundtrack to a rebellious 80’s Hollywood action film that never got made. It’s big on grandeur, emotion and stadium rock. It never deviates from the concept too far, but it captures all those emotions you get from a classic action film where the hero, against the odds, saves the day and get’s the girl.
Yuskek is preparing to release his next single from his second long-play ‘Living On The Edge Of Time’ – his next single is the up-beat ‘Always On The Run’.
Here it is. A snap-shot of what the bosses of the crosses Justice have up their sleeve with their new album ‘Audio Video Disco’ the follow up to the Cross. Out October 24 via Ed Banger.
Justice’s new direction is polarising opinion all over the place. Well here’s a video interview with the boss’ of the crosses, which see’s Xavier and Gaspard explain the new direction, the concept behind ‘Audio, Video, Disco’ and what they have planned for their new live show.
Well we did say that there wouldn’t be any new music until Wednesday, unless there was some new music from Justice or Daft Punk – well that went out the window yesterday with a post on EWE.
