THE BEST:
‘Please Eloise’ –
Flyte
Eloise isn’t a name I’ve come across before. I guess
nowadays you’ve got to get creative given almost every other female name has been
taken and used in a song. Anyhow, all that aside, this is a damn good indie rock track packing some
serious groove and an explosive chorus you’ll inadvertently find yourself
singing the next morning in the shower. This London band could be ones to watch.
‘I Bite Through It’ –
Oneohtrix Point Never
Never one for conventionality, US electronic producer
Oneohtrix Point Never delivers this digital glitchfest. It ski-ski-skips along
like a scratched record, whilst skilfully managing to be both melodic and
emotive. A full album, Garden of Delete,
is set to drop soon.
‘Myths’ – Frank
Gamble
These vocals sound bloody awesome. Is this even a dude
singing? I mean, I don’t know many chicks named Frank, but that range is
extraordinary. The glittery semi-trap instrumental is pretty awesome too.
‘Talk To Me’ - Nick
Brewer
I know the beat’s stolen from Crystal Waters’ ‘Gypsy Woman’
and I know T.I. already sampled it, but UK hip hop artist Nick Brewer’s smooth rapping
still manages to bring a new sense of life to it.
‘Ready Aim Fire’ –
Lexi Scherr
Don’t we have enough eighties nostalgia floating around right now? Probably, but this Chicago singer’s new upbeat single trumps most of them.
THE WORST:
Dooo it! – Miley
Cyrus
‘Why they put the dick
in the pussy?’ See my Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz review. Although you probably have ears so no doubt don’t
need me to justify what’s wrong with this song.
