Octo Octa "Deep Hurt"There's a major caveat to consider ahead of our enjoyment of this new tune by Brooklyn producer Octo Octa : The dude samples Aaliyah throughout "Deep Hurt." At this point in the acapella-jacking game, anything recorded by the deceased, iconic singer has been re-appropriated so many times that you're treading on some very well-worn ground if you even borrow one hard-to-pin-down phrase from her stellar output. read moreXLR8R: Downloads24 May 2012

Live: Bewitching Hour. The xx, Battersea Art .."This has been our first week of shows for two years", says Oliver Sim as he glances over coyly at the packed Grand Hall of Battersea Arts Centre, "so you might have to bear with us." Since 2010, The xx have cemented themselves in the public consciousness as a force to be reckoned with. To say they’ve exploded would be an understatement, as performances at Coachella and Bonnaroo and a Mercury Prize win have demonstrated. But that was two years ago and since then, the musical landscape has shifted quite seismically. The group’s distinctive brand of dreamy R ...Dots & Dashes21 May 2012

Donna Summer, The Original Disco Punk...Indeed.

Sparks were a glam rock band until they heard “I Feel Love,” when they decided to throw their entire musical direction in the dustbin and make pulsing, synthesised disco records with its producer, Giorgio Moroder. Seeking to assert his credentials as a man of impeccable musical taste ...The Daily Swarm18 May 2012

Haim - Live At The Shacklewell Arms, London ..Tonight The Shackwell Arms makes a rush hour tube journey look comfortable. As one of the Haim sisters turns around to face the drummer three people in the front row do a reverse Mexican wave, ducking one-by-one to avoid being hit by the neck of her guitar. These three Los Angeles girls became the talk of SXSW by fusing R&B; vocal harmonies with indie-folk melodies. At the last of two London showcases everyone’s eager to see how such a contradictory mix can work live. The girls look grungier than their R&B; production values would have you believe – baggy t-shirts ...Clash Music16 May 2012
