Beardyman - Oh! (feat. Foreign Beggars)

 'Turn it up because you know it be sounding nice'

I saw Beardyman last year at Leeds Festival, and it was easily one of the most talked about gigs of the festival. Just a beatboxer? He's nothing less than an entertainer. But I did wonder how his witty showman style would come across on a record. With in seconds of pressing play on 'Oh!', the 8th track on his new album 'I Done A Album', I realised, he doesn't need a show to back up his music.

Training on the bakers dozen of Chaos Box's has left him with magicians touch when it come to samples. Production is perfect. Lyrical licks. The beat is a ...fucking monster.

Best Comment

Just read NMEs story on Alan McGee, without a doubt he's a prick. But I did see a fantastic comment.

never trust anyone who doesn't like music.

Sums it all up with more eloquence i could muster.

M83 - 'Raconte-Moi Une Histoire'

Less of a review but more just instructions:
 
i. Press play,
ii. Close your eyes.

I'll make it feel more like a review by saying something like "10/10".

Justice - Audio, Video, Disco

Every synth-orchestral drop of 'Audio, Video, Disco' is pure unrefined Justice. However there is no doubt that it is lacking the 'TThhee PPaarrttyy' factor. But the ever optimist inside of me hopes that it will work perfectly in the context of their new album.
