zomg. Finally The self titled new album is coming out on the 16th of August. Although i sound like a teen reviewer for dolly magazine i have been a massive fan of Mercy Arms for awhile, although Kirin may steal my girlfriend with his ‘yeah i can wear a wedding dress but girls still want to sex me’ look. The album has been produced by Tony Cohen who has worked with the likes of Nick Cave. The album is a lot different to what i thought it might be. Has a very Pete Doherty pop vibe too it? Don’t hurt me for saying that.. Please, please buy their album(on itunes?) they have been working hard on this for quite awhile AND go see them on tour. Seriously one of the best live bands to see. Take your girl/boy friend and just hope the band doesn’t steal them away.
The Glimmer Twins have been spinning tunes since 1987 and have always shown huge diversity in there sets with a mix of disco, house, electro, classics and hip hop.
Their remixes are also extremely diverse, remixing for such players as Bloc Party, The Killers, New Order, Roxy Music, Isolee, Phoenix, Munk, Snow Patrol, Calvin Harris, Shirley Bassey, Junkie XL and the Chemical Brothers.
This wide array of influences is present on their new LP ‘Gee Gee Fazzi’, which contains collaborations with Princess Superstar, Freeform Five, Lindstrom & Prins Thomas, Optimo Espacio, Kenneth Bager, Ray Mang, Foxylane, Baby G, CJ Bolland and many more. It’s a funky ride through disco roots and techno dreams, and what makes this an even better listen is that each track flows into the next, seemlessly.
Be sure to check out their interpretation of Olivia Newton John’s classic ‘Let’s Get Physical’.
Pre-order ‘In Ghost Colours’ here. Out on Modular 22/03/2008.
Huge news today folks. You loyal+patient Cut Copy fans out there get to have a huge bite of the album via the band’s myspace (my ears have never been touched in this way in a mighty long time); with their album actually being released March 22 in Australia. FINALLY!!!! So get on their myspizz and enjoy the pre-release listening session of a life time!
