Posted March 23, 201411 yr http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/46048000/jpg/_46048396_young-fathers466.jpg For the first time since July 2013 when CHVRCHES were spending 4 weeks at #1 with "Gun", there is a Scottish group at the top of the chart. Young Fathers are Alloysious Massaquo, Kayus Bankole and and 'G' Hastings - Alloysious was actually born in Liberia and moved to Edinburgh at the age of 4; the rest of the group were born in the Scottish capital where the band are currently based. Previously releasing two small EPs Tape One in 2011 and Tape Two last year, their debut LP Dead was released on the infamous Big Dada Recordings label in February and the joyous lead single from it "Get Up" climbs 2-1 this week to knock Jonna Lee off the top. The Linköping singer represents the second Swede to hit the top in 2014, following ceo's "WHOREHOUSE" in February and will not be too despondent at dropping 1-3 this week with the magnificent "Fountain"; the reason being because new single "Hunting For Pearls" charges 37-24 achieving one of the biggest climbs of the week and looks set to join it in the Top 10 very soon. Just beating Jonna to runners-up honours this week is 31 year-old American singer/songwriter Annie Erin Clark, otherwise known as St. Vincent. "Digital Witness" (up 4-2), St. Vincent's ascerbic commentary on modern life in the digital age, served as the 2nd single from her fourth self-titled album. Making an impressive 5 place climb to #5 are the new UK duo Toyin Mustapha & Rob Drake, known as Toyboy & Robin. Their debut release "Jaded" was entered into BJSC last month and kicked up a storm by missing narrowly out on winning song honours - here they beat their rivals SOHN (whose "Artifice" improves slightly 9-7 this week). The group are heavily influenced by house music and combine elements of garage and bass to make unique and interesting tracks. "Jaded" takes the sadly now forgotten 1993 #7 hit by Jade- "Don't Walk Away" and cuts up the vocal to surprisingly great effect, expect it to make a strong challenge for #1 in the coming weeks. There are strong climbs outside the Top 10 for newcomer Shura, and the wonderfully laid-back "Touch" which jumps 26-13 on its third week, and Royal Blood make an equally impressive 33-19 leap with "Little Monster". The highest of four new entries is in at No.36 for Little Dragon; the Swedish band have been unfortunate to not score a Top 10 hit so far, with "Sunshine" reaching #12 in summer 2012, and "Ritual Union" stalling at #18 the previous summer in 2011, "Klapp Klapp" will hopefully rectify that. The Neighbourhood (No. 42 with "Sweater Weather"), HAERTS who at No. 44 are following up 2 No. 1 hits "All The Days" and "Hemiplegia" with the much slower "Call My Name", and finally Luke Sital-Singh (No. 48 with "Greatest Lovers") complete the new entrants for this rather quiet week.

March 23, 201411 yr Hey Dr. I see you've finally made it to BJSC?? Excited to see what you bring. Here i'm liking a few more than i usually do, particularly Trust, iamamiwhoami, Kiesza, London G and SOHN. Very wonderful to see V V making her way up. She's made one of my favourite albums of the past 12 months and really struck a chord with me. This wasn't my first choice of single off it, but it's fab anyway and Kele offers a bit more life into it too <3
March 24, 201411 yr Author Hi Martin! 09 - 21 Kiesza "Hideaway" 50-36-21-09 (4 weeks) Such a great track Agreed, properly loving this at the moment ! 17 - 20 Duke Dumont ft. Jax Jones "I Got U" 40-29-20-17 (4 weeks) One of the best #1s of the year behind Rather Be Yes, I'd still say "Rather Be" was my favourite #1 of 2014, but it is close between these. 25 - 36 London Grammar "Hey Now" 47-36-25 (3 weeks) So enchanting track, one of the best Indie bands around at the moment the album never lets me down I need to see them live, they weren't on the festival circuit last year... well the festivals that I was at anyway. :P 33 - 48 Banks "Brain" 48-33 (2 weeks) And still #1 on my personal chart, so haunting It's fantastic, gotta praise Shlohmo on production duties too!

I loved "The Apple" lots (got to #4), and I agree that "Faith" maybe was perhaps not the best single choice but I still am enjoying it and love the album too. Look forward to hearing your entry. :D
