November 2, 201212 yr Author ^(Y) Way to go Alt-J taking out this year's Mercury Prize :Dinah: Here's them doing a mash-up cover of Dr Dre's "Still D.R.E." and Kylie Minogue's "Slow". Amazing
November 3, 201212 yr ^I just got done watching the coverage, and their performance on the night was pretty great. The Mercury is such a good thing for bands (Plan B aside) who need a leg-up and a chance to get some decent cash behind them.
November 3, 201212 yr Here's a great song by new band Wolf Alice, a recent discovery and current favourite of mine. http://youtu.be/g_ZWEesFmOA
November 6, 201212 yr This one (along with Wolf Alice) is pretty much wearing out my replay button right now. Daft name, brilliant song. Also, recommended listening for fans of Yeasayer and/or Friendly Fires.
November 18, 201212 yr ^Awesome When's the album out? Not until early-ish next year apparently, but they did debut another new track on the Jools Holland show last week. http://youtu.be/JSyz3X0pifM
November 30, 201212 yr Presenting some random highlights from the current run of 'Later with Jools Holland' - starting with Tame Impala.
November 30, 201212 yr Bat for Lashes. Pleasantly surprised by the performance of 'Oh Yeah' which I'd assumed would work better in the context of the album.
November 30, 201212 yr Valerie June. Future Jack White collaboration inevitable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8YcVyULies&feature=share&list=SPE4858B103CB8EA3D Two Polica numbers in one. http://youtu.be/GcUBAEYCb-c
November 30, 201212 yr Lana Del Rey and Palma Violets from this week's show.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L30iV2mtDe0&feature=share&list=SPE4858B103CB8EA3Dhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JezmmjxtSo&feature=share&list=SPE4858B103CB8EA3D
December 2, 201212 yr wow some great stuff here you guys. and it's great that Alt-J won (I think it was I who introduced them to this thread) and while you guys always seem to be pretty up on your female musicians, somehow the best track and video IMO, of the year has gone past you. Solange's Losing You. Dev Hynes, of Blood Orange and Lightspeed Champion, produced her new EP with his whole 80's new wave vibe and this track is just PERFECT. And the video is just too cool.
December 3, 201212 yr Author Good stuff guys Just heard this guy the other day - I like him a lot George Ezra - It's Just My Skin <-- Click for Soundcloud and another:
