Single Reviews - Beach - Burning Up (Sliding Vinyl)
By Steve Rudd
|
|
Truly a mighty tune to help you breathe more easily, the anthemic vibes therein are born out of a monstrously angular guitar riff being creatively pinned up against a wicked dance beat. The resulting high octane energy levels more than mean business, and there isn't one dull
second of

Singles Reviews - Chart Review 30th May 2005 with
DJ Chris Plant
|
|
My American friend emailed me on Sunday afternoon with an air of deep concern.
Is it true that a ringtone has topped the singles chart over there?
Well of course if you are a newspaper hack the answer is Yes, a ten second ringtone
is indeed the Number One single in the UK and it is the end of the music

Singles Reviews - Chart Review 23rd May 2005 with
DJ Chris Plant
|
|
Ten years is a long time, whichever way you look at it.
Musically speaking it is a whole world away, the summer of 1995 now regarded as the
golden summer of Britpop, when the likes of Pulp, Supergrass, Blur and of course Oasis
battled it out side by side at the top of a revitalised singles chart.

Album Reviews - Back To Base featuring Benjamin Zephaniah - Heading For The Door By Suzanne Hicks
|
|
A fabulous blend of chilled, haunting guitars, gentle hip-hop and reggae drum beats with
Benjamin Zephaniahs' soothing voice reciting his poetry.
This album has something for every mood. Mostly relaxing with some fantastic funky house beats as
well as African tribal rhythms and eastern influences

Album Reviews - The Vultures Rebel Yelp EP By Michelle Dee
|
|
The Vultures still play hard, fast, punky rock n roll.
However they appear to have changed since last year which apart from seeing them recently at
Ringside with Break Even and Soulflame, I'm sad to say is when I saw them last.
The days of playing a twenty song set in ten minutes are behind them, okay slight

DJ Chris Plant

Firstly, sorry I haven't written a singles chart review for over a month.
I have been in Las Vegas having a great time...On with this weeks review.
Despite strong competition from a, shall we say, expected unexpected source, Akon's Lonely
stands proud at the top of the charts for a second week at Number One.

Single Reviews - Hal - Play The Hits (Rough Trade)
By Steve Rudd
|
|
Following up their chirpy What A Lovely Dance hit, Play The Hits' is quite frankly a
fabulous tune from this refreshing Irish four-piece. These fellows go all out to hit upon
classic melodies and harmonies that burrow their way into the hearts and minds of their
listeners - and that Brian Wilson would die for.
This song has been written by band front man David Allen

Music, Album Reviews - Oasis: Don't Believe The Truth By Nick Boldock
|
|
There was a time when it would sound faintly ridiculous to suggest that Oasis
would ever again record a great album.
Their last effort - 2002's Heathen Chemistry - suggested a renaissance, and despite mediocre
media interest did contain some brilliance, most notably the Noel-sung numbers
Little By Little and Force Of Nature.
Certainly it was a sign of

Single Reviews - Hood - The Negatives (Domino)
By Steve Rudd
|
|
Well, there's nothing quite like being positive - even if they're Hood and they're playing
The Negatives. For starters, this band's music is certainly intriguing and thoroughly fascinating, not least because they refuse to conform when it comes to writing conventionally structured songs.
The two b-sides that are tagged on the back of this single release, just

Single Reviews - Bodyrockers - I Like The Way (Mercury)
By Steve Rudd
|
|
The type of tune that you either love or loathe, this latest anthem from this
troupe of Dance-dazed musicians is taking the nation by storm regardless, and
the Top 40 really cannot resist a tune of this calibre.
This release heaves with some epic remixes of the song, but rarely do remixes
compare
