Songs of the Week

1. The City - Patrick Wolf:Pop virtuoso extraordinaire Patrick Wolf is still only 27 years old and is back with his fifth (!) album already. The concept for Lupercalia has changed quite a lot over the past months, but this second single nontheless justifies the wait.

2. Interleave - Win Win ft. Alexis Taylor: New track from American duo Win Win from their upcoming self-titled debut long player. Win Win is producer Alex Epton and dj Devlin (both Spank Rock), the vocals are provided by Hot Chip's Alexis Taylor. Enjoy!

3. Hold On To Your Misery - CocknBullkid: After three EP's in as many years, two singles (the first one back in 2008!), a sabat year and a name change Anita Blay is at long last about to release her first full studio album. Adulthood is set for April and this promo video shows that she hasn't lost her pop skills.

4. Wilhelms Scream - James Blake:One of the top tracks on dubstep producer James Blake's self-titled debut album. The song start off somewhat subduead, with Blake's voice and sound working together not to break the silence until the song climaxes somewhere halfway, putting you in a trance of peace, happiness and utter beauty.

5. She Wants - Metronomy: First single from Metronomy's forthcoming album English Riviera. Enjoyable preview with a heavily eighties inspired bassline.


*BONUS* Everything - Micachu and the Shapes: The second album of Micachu and the Shapes promises to be an interesting one, judging from the list of 'important things' the band sent out. This excellent first single is being sent into the world for free.
