This sophomore album from the quirky Brit popsters
is the work of a band fired up by confidence and
propelled way beyond their early DIY roots. Expanding
on the slippery, indefinable brilliance of their debut,
Born Under Saturn
finds Django Django exploring
a much broader sonic canvas, finding magic in the
unexplored spaces between
different kinds of music.
“Once we got into the studio
it became obvious it would
be a bigger-sounding record,”
says bassist Jim Dixon.
This brand new ‘Best Of’ compilation from the
legendary guitarist spans three decades of his hugely
successful solo career.
Forever Man
boasts more
than 50 tracks over spread over three CDs, devoted to
studio, live and blues recordings, and includes classics
such as the Grammy-winning
Tears
in Heaven
,
Sunshine of Your Love
,
Layla
,
White Room
and
Wonderful
Tonight
. It also features tracks
from his celebrated collaborations
with the likes of BB King, Stevie
Winwood and JJ Cale.
Jack Ü
is the full realization of Skrillex and Diplo’s
individual talents as two of the most innovative
producers in the world, both of whom have electrified
audiences with their energetic hybrid of pop,
hip-hop and EDM. Following their legendary show
at Madison Square Garden on New Year’s Eve,
this 10-track album features a huge
guest roster, including the first
appearance from Justin Bieber
in over a year, plus 2 Chainz,
AlunaGeorge, Bunji Garlin, Snails,
Tarantula, Kai and Fly Boi Keno.
The second release of one of the most buzzed about
bands of 2014 is the follow up to their wildly-
successful and critically acclaimed debut album
Vessel
. On
Blurryface
, frontman Tyler Joseph and
drummer Josh Dun take their exhilarating mix of
hip-hop, indie rock and punk to
glorious new heights, melding
soaring pop melodies with eclectic
sonic landscapes and grooves.
Includes the singles
Tear in My
Heart
and
Fairly Local
.
“I think it’s one of the best things I’ve done,”
reckons the Modfather of his 12th studio album.
On this follow-up to 2012’s No 1 album
Sonic Kicks
,
Weller continues to push boundaries with another
kaleidoscopic tour de force, delivered with a verve
and ambition to shame his
contemporaries as he continues to
adapt and evolve to stay one step
ahead of the pack. Guests include
The Strypes’ Josh McClorey and
next-gen prog rockers Syd Arthur.
