donbot Posted January 31, 2012 Author Posted January 31, 2012 MIA is no longer MIA What does that mean? I just got that I thought she'd changed her performing name or something Quote
Michael* Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 (Y) to the Jack. Do you know who's singing on that track with him? It's a Nashville singer by the name of Ruby Amanfu. Apparently, she's been around in various guises since the late 90s, but this is the first I've ever heard of her. Quite a few interesting videos kicking around YouTube, though... Quote
Nightlife Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 ^You can always keep this thread propped up http://www.bellazon.com/main/index.php?sho...4023&st=300 Indeed I could but i fear it just be me on my todd But seriously i am forever the guy who runs into the room, shouting omg guys have you heard of this band, to which is almost always replied back by, "Seriously, thats been out for ages" <_< Quote
donbot Posted February 1, 2012 Author Posted February 1, 2012 ^ Well don't be discouraged from posting. There's always lots that passes me by too (Y) to the Jack.

Nice voice New Feist video: Quote
donbot Posted February 1, 2012 Author Posted February 1, 2012 New Ladyhawke single came out last week too Quote
Michael* Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 ^To my ears, the bridge on this tune sounds oddly like 'Tragedy' by the Bee Gees. File under 'really shouldn't work but kinda does'. Quote
donbot Posted February 8, 2012 Author Posted February 8, 2012 ^Hah yeah, I can totally hear that <_< More new Sleigh Bells So this is the catchy pop tune that they were threatening to write after the first album. Sounds great! +awesomesexy video Quote
Michael* Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 ^Great stuff. I'm beginning to see a host of VMAs in Sleigh Bells' future and if this video is denied one, I'd (just this once) applaud one of Kanye's patented hissyfits. Quote
donbot Posted February 8, 2012 Author Posted February 8, 2012 Also went to the Big Day Out last weekend. Highlight of the day for me was Cage the Elephant - fucking awesome show, and their first time in Aus.Best Coast, Kimbra, The Jezabels and Röyksopp all smashed it too (Y) Quote
donbot Posted February 8, 2012 Author Posted February 8, 2012 ^Everybody wins I hope she comes back here for a headline tour with her next album Quote
Nightlife Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 ^ Word on the street thats all. I was told by a few friends who traveling through Australia that the radio dJ's were introducing music that was released in the UK before they left (roughly 4 months prior) Along with tv shows as well. So i assumed you got your music fix solely through the internet in order to stay current Quote

So i assumed you got your music fix solely through the internet in order to stay current Oh. Not quite sure how that related to the Laura Marling thing, but ok TV shows and movies, yes.. although I think the delays have decreased in general over the last decade, and a lot of bigger movies tend to get worldwide release dates now anyway. Music is right there though, although I suppose it depends which radio station you're talking about. All the good stuff is pretty much released here the same time as everywhere else - and we even get some pretty tasty world exclusives sometimes :brows: Commercial radio stations tend to be rather behind though. Like if you take a crossover artist (i.e. one that does well in the mainstream, but is also actually good, like Florence & The Machine), they'll latch onto a single that's already been out for a couple of weeks and play the shit out of it for a month.. meanwhile Triple J (best ever ) has already moved on to the next single and/or other fresh and exciting things <_< Quote
Nightlife Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 ^ Well regardless, it doesn't seem to stop you from having your hand on the pulse (is that even a saying ) Not quite sure how that relates to Laura Marling either But as it happens huge fan of her work..anyway. Still listen to her first album a lot more then the others. Have you got a last fm account? Be interested to see your charts Quote
donbot Posted February 11, 2012 Author Posted February 11, 2012 ^No I don't. I'd like to see yours though if you want to post it Quote
