Bumblebeez
Dr. Love
new single 15 October 07
Yep, chris and Pia from the Australian outback town of Braidwood have hit upon a chune here, made for the dancefloor this is kinda chunky and funky mmm beefy and leafy even.

Mark Ronson & Amy Winehouse
Valerie
new CD single 15 October - on download now
I really like Mark Ronson's treatment of the songs on Version, it takes not a little skill to be able to reconstruct them in the way he has. Zutons 'Valerie' is v. hot on the dancefloor and hooking up with Amy is pretty well perfect timing - I particularly like Baby J Remix as a reggae fest featuring MC's Precha, Alex Blood & Malik
Hey look there it is Number 12 without trying!

Robyn
Handle Me
new single 22 October
Yep she's got it, another smash hit that is

Maccabees
Toothpaste Kisses
new single 22 October
Toothpaste Kisses may not quite be James Bond but nevertheless brilliantly and Quintessentially British ... Maccabees are quite unique in many ways and this new single is surprisingly low key ... possibly their biggest hit yet

We Start Fires
Let's Get Our Hands Dirty
new single 22 October
I really like this band, kind of authentic Rezillos with a 21st Century edge - this is a third strong single that deserves a breakthrough


New Young Pony Club
Get Lucky (2007)
A remix of a single released last year, they'll be Top Five sooner or later

My American Heart
The Shake (Awful Feeling)
new single 8 October
This is a fine single, boding well for the future. Madina Lake's a good support slot to land. My American Heart may be a little more commercial than Madina Lake and could well convert a few of their fans without t
oo much difficulty

Elle Milano
My Brother,The Astronaught
limited edition white vinyl 7" single & download 29 October
An exciting frenzy of youthful energy, an explosion of excited sound -
both 'My Bro' and 'Good People Go To Heaven' are intriguing, beguiling even - straight to the top!

Stateless
Bloodstream
new single 22 October
Stateless have ben requested,
"A five-piece from Leeds, Stateless have already delivered some healthy beat-driven guitar and turntable rock on previous releases. But their third single "Bloodstream”, is their masterpiece. A 21st century blues ballad built from cinematic hip-hop beats, super-heavy bass and perfumed piano. It sounds both heartbroken and drunk on its own romantic intoxication." So says the PR and 'Bloodstream' leaves a haunting and charming flava ... and we like the Pilooski edit ... hit potential

The Vincent Black Shadow
Fears In The Water
new single 29 October
This is a very good record from another Canadian outfit ... Canada does seem to be a hotbed of creativity at the moment ... Lead singer Cassandra Ford's vocals are very strong, very appealing
each of the three tracks featured are bang on the pulse ... chart potential

Motion City Soundtrack
Even If It Kills Me
new single 17 September
hmmmm, is this strong enough to break through
i don't think so ... but this band are often requested and that is a very good sign
