New Music Fridays 2022

[funky]

This is fun. Reminds me of Empire Of The Sun

 

[funky]

Broken Bells absolutely KILLING IT with their first 2 singles from the upcoming album. First a psychadelic pop song, now a 70s revival ballad. I'm in love

 

[Jark]

lovely and shimmery as per from Anna of the North

 

[FetchFugly]

This appears to be an existing album track that MØ has been added to. It is rather good:



I'm still not sure the new material is quite as good as his best but the voice is it and I do like this. There is an album coming in November:

 

[FetchFugly]

First Aid Kit have a new song out and it has a nice seventies country soul thing about it. I don't think it is quite as good as Out of My Head though, which was more of a rousing pop moment:

 

[Jark]

really lovely song that goes to some interesting places



@funky @RJN @Tisch @FetchFugly

@funky @RJN @Tisch @FetchFugly

Ooh yes I've dabbled in them before in the lockdown years I think...

Also reminder I need to bookmark all of @Jark's and @funky's mentions because I keep forgetting. Also would like to be added to @FetchFugly's lists thanks

 

[funky]

New SG Lewis, Chromeo AND Moon Boots today. What a morning! @Jark

 

[Jark]

Hot Minute is fabulous, and something different for Moon Boots

 

[FetchFugly]

Lead single from Glüme's second album. She is still on Italians Do It Better but this has a much bigger pop chorus than their usual:



TAKE ME

 

[funky]

THis liquid D&B album is rather beautiful. Not sure I could do it in one sitting as it's all very similar, but broken out there are some very good tunes here. Everything Is Possible and Love For Me Too being the highlights.

 

[Jark]

this is a @FetchFugly-tailored find if ever I heard one




never heard of her before but these knock. the production!

 

[FetchFugly]

The Big Moon's new album is out this week and apparently in the running for a top ten spot. On first listen it is quite good and Daydreaming is a lovely number:



Exceptionally silly but quite fun:

 

[Jark]

another week, another sparkly banger from Anna of the North

 

[RJN]

Every Joel Corry song sounds similar but the new one is one of his best

 

[Pipo]

I like Joel Corry, he's trash, but listenable trash I can use at the gym.

 

[OutSynk]

I like Joel Corry, he's trash, but listenable trash I can use at the gym.

Love it when you’re at the gym.

 

[Pipo]

Love it when you’re at the gym.

Too bad I won't be bopping to anything off Midnights

 

[funky]

STOP EVERYTHING we have new Ekkah and they've gone from lofi R&B to electro-disco and mopsy DEAD

 

[FetchFugly]

An Ekkah album is ridiculously overdue and electro disco is very welcome, but those vocals just sound a little OFF

 

[FetchFugly]

another week, another sparkly banger from Anna of the North

This is lovely. I probably have said this repeatedly but the best Anna of the North song in a while.

 

[FetchFugly]

A big, retro number, co-written by Billy Steinberg and co-produced by Kleerup(!):

 

[Jark]

Ekkah are hit and miss and this one isn't quite hitting. it's giving subpar Satin Jackets

 

[Pipo]

I love Satin Jackets. Electric Blue gives me so much life.

 

[Devil]

Every Joel Corry song sounds similar but the new one is one of his best

Waddled in here to see if this had been posted, this is fucking brilliant

 

[funky]

Why do all the current DJs insist on working with every white boy cod soul singer out there?

The best dance tunes will always have an R&B/diva vocal or an ethereal vocal (with a few exceptions). We need more!

 

[funky]

Biig Piig giving us another reliable low key bop

 

[funky]

More pop than house, but KC Lights always deliver a really uplifting tune. I really like this.

 

[funky]

Oh my. The Basement Jaxx-ness of this is superb. This guy never really took off did he? I think this is his best to date.

 

[Jark]

new-ish one from the singer of last year's excellent Disarray




both very @FetchFugly / @funky friendly

 

[funky]

Nice reminds me of Shura. Proper songwriting with a synthy backdrop

 

[Jark]

Biig Piig giving us another reliable low key bop

this one passed me by but Kerosene is quite a tit slapper. straight into the house playlist

 

[funky]

Kerosene is great

 

[Pipo]

I think I need to make a new playlist and include everything mentioned here - any ideas on how should I name it??
