AlunaGeorge

 Put Up Your Hands by AlunaGeorge



Heya, I just thought I'd review a AlunaGeorge tune.

Right now, AlunaGeorge are really getting big, they have interviews left, right and centre!
Oh yeah, I found out how to do the soundcloud thing I was desperately trying to do last time!

Actually change of plan. I'm not going to review it in a serious way, as I love the tune! And there isn't much else to it! I think its insanely amazing (likewise is the next one I'm going to post). I will do a more researched/serious post about them later on (maybe in the week).

 You Know You Like It (Bobby Tank Remix) by AlunaGeorge

This is such a feel good tune! I could imagine this being big in the clubs as well!

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.

New Euterpe (pronounced: yoo-ter-pee)

Hello,

For those of you wondering what the hell "Euterpe" is, then fear no more! 
"Euterpe" is the name of the Greek Goddess of music. So now that we have cleared that up, let me show you what is NEW.


So, yesterday I asked for a request for new music (on Twitter: Follow me by clicking on the link), since I knew that I wanted to do exactly this! I wanted to blog about it, and get it out there. 


So, here is the first track of today, there will be more coming up later!

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.
