  • WE LOVE ::: Noah and the Whale ‘There Will Come a Time’

    WE LOVE ::: Noah and the Whale ‘There Will Come a Time’

    Ever since the days of ‘L I F E G O E S O N’, Noah and the Whale have captured me with their quirky songs, catchy lyrics and all round band perfection. Sure, when I find myself singing “well in five years time, we’ll be walking around the zoo” for the fifth time in an hour, I question whether they’ve taken on board some sort of Illuminati shit to brainwash the minds of music fans over the world, but [...]

    VIDEO ::: Calvin Harris feat. Ellie Goulding ‘I Need Your Love’

    Just in time for summer, two of our favourite artists have collaborated and created this little beauty. A sure hit throughout the festival circuit this year, expect this song to be playing at every given opportunity. It’s got the beats, the bass and the lyrics behind it, giving it that summer anthem title within seconds. I’m expecting this to receive as much hype as ‘We Found Love’ – Rihanna feat. Calvin Harris. And lets face it, we’re all still humming [...]

    BLOG ::: Throwback Thursday ::: Ultrabeat ‘Pretty Green Eyes’

          I don’t know if I have Ultrabeat’s ‘Pretty Green Eyes’ to blame for my love of green eyes but they are mesmerizing just like this song. Did you know that Utrabeat covered this former Dance track? Force & Styles ft Junior brought ‘Pretty Green Eyes’ to the happy hardcore club scene in 1996/1997  but with it’s dated vocals, harmonies and trippy beats, that version was seriously lacking for me. Instead Ultrabeat climbed mainstream heights reaching No2 in [...]

    It’s guaranteed that at ANY festival you go to over the summer, your camera will almost definitely be permanently attached to your hand. Festival photos are obligatory, especially for those of you who share my love of alcohol – because let’s face it, you’re not going to remember any festival excitement without photographic evidence after a couple of dodgy ciders you’d turn your nose up at, outside of the festival atmosphere. So for those of you who usually have to [...]
