STWO - Beyond EP.

I am totally into electronic music, it has a notable selection of vibes especially for summer, someone that has been mastering my playlist lately is 20 yr-old Parisian DJ/Producer Stwo. His EP Beyond is effortlessly perfect, the sound is so refined and sensual that I just get lost in the tracks my favorite is Lovin' U, the daydreamy EP is exactly what us Brits need to guide us through the sweaty sleepless nights. I know there are tons of electronic tracks dominating the radio and internet airways but Stwo is certainly someone you and your eardrums need to familiarize yourself with.

SPIKE ISLAND.

Spike Island, a film about the power The Stone Roses held over the British 90s generation. Directed by Matt Whitecross, this film brings you an insight into the journey of a upcoming band who will do anything just to see their favorite The Stone Roses, in concert. The film is set in Manchester and with that we are exposed to the Northern swagger of an overload of Adidas, trackies and of course the brilliant northern tongue and it was released on 21st of June. The Stone Roses back in the 90s did have a concert at Spike Island, on May of 1990, which is even more radical.
 This film is a slight recreation/depiction the director and his team have to recreate a whole massive gig, apart from this being really cool it might be hard to recreate the atmosphere but from the trailer that doesn't seem to be an issue. As a British kid I think this film is a beautiful film which tampers with the nostalgic qualities of not just the individuals but a whole nation, which as a director is an excellent ability to have. I'm in love with this film, if you like films like This Is England then you will like this, this film pays homage to everything British/English. Watch the trailer.

ALUNAGEORGE.

I first heard about AulunaGeorge back when they collaborated with Disclosure on their track White Noise, which was an awesome collaboration. I loved the track it was something totally fresh from all of the other things on the radio at the time.With the presence of Disclosure and AlunaGeorge the genre of electronic is making a swift comeback, the tracks that are being created are beautiful and are great for a summer playlist. I am fully in love with AlunaGeorge every track they have released has been stellar, I love Aluna's voice and with the combination of George's rad beats, a perfect harmony is created. Below are some of my favorite tracks.

MUSIC: DISCLOSURE - WHEN A FIRE STARTS TO BURN.

Disclosure, a British electronic duo appeared on the scene properly in 2012 with their remix of Jessie Ware's track Running then expanded with their track White Noise featuring AlunaGeorge. The duo, two brothers Guy and Howard have created perfection between literally I am in love with every track they produce, their new track now this certainly a beauty. This track is called When a Fire Starts to Burn, it is stunning and the video is something else, literally I laughed and loved it, this is their best video yet. I congratulate the director immensely Bo Mirosseni, the video has everything, it's lively a southern type baptists church, it has snakes, dancing old people and arms in the air! 10/10 for this video, check it.

Ladies and Gentlemen, David Bowie is back.

 Directed by the well renowned Floria Sigismondi, David Bowie's new video "The Stars (Are Out Tonight)" has been released. It is the second track on his new album New Day which is to be released by March 2013, so get ready! Okay alright the video, I'm telling you it's great...and after all this time he's still got it! Bowie has collaborated with the coolest British actress, Tilda Swinton and models Andrej Pejic and Saskia De Brauw. The video is stunning, prior to this video I wasn't too bothered about videos for Bowie, because his voice was all I needed, but now I'm stunned by how good this video is, it totally captures Bowie.
Tilda plays his wife, perfect combination, they look alike and they are both arty etc etc. I love how Bowie uses the models and actresses to show his previous performances, they are acting out what he did in his career which is cool, it's kind of like the resurrection of Bowie himself in his previous state. Now onto the song, I love it, sounds like Bowie has brought another era to ours. Bowie mellow vibes. Take a listen and appreciate.

HARMONIOUS FUSION : Laura Mvula.

 

I love music, it's the best! Especially if it is of good quality, and any newcomers who create music "I salute you and welcome you with open arms."  I came across the striking, velvety voiced of Ms Laura Mvula. Laura Mvula is a Birmingham-born singer; of Caribbean heritage, who has used her training of classical music and her love for R'n'B and Jazz to carve her own mark in the world of music.

I don't  know what you would classify Laura Mvula's music as but whatever it is, she should keep on doing it, it's new, fresh and totally awesome. When you listen to her music you are transported somewhere magical which she is creating by her voice and it's truly beautiful. I've attached some of her songs below and you should take a listen.
