Use Somebody never charted before so I reckon it's charted (in the top 40) ^_^

 

It hasn't, it would've been mentioned if it did.

Never heard this iyaz song before , doesn't sound good, iyaz is worse with every song (replay is his only great song)

I'm always good for an awooo. I was at an 80s night last night and they played Duran Duran - Hungry Like The Wolf, I was awoooooooing allover the place :kink:

 

Plus I am, like, an actual werewolf.

A lot has been said about Magnetic Man, the trio made up of dubstep’s leading lights Skream, Benga and Artwork. It was Artwork who penned the dubstep anthem “Red,” a tune so ahead of its time the genre didn’t yet have a name. He began to mentor two errant teenagers – Benga, who has released two albums and who co-wrote the club hit “Night,” and Skream, whose anthem “Midnight Request Line” took the genre to the nation before his remix of La Roux’s “In For The Kill” sent it worldwide.

 

Having created a genre of music that has taken hold of youth culture in britain, anticipation has been building to fever pitch as the band set about unleashing onto the world their debut album. a trail of incendiary live performances across the UK and Europe – from the Roskilde Festival in Denmark and Melt festival in Germany to London club Matter and the warehouse project in Manchester - have left festival goers and clubbers transfixed over the past year. The NME were so convinced of their potential that they featured the band on the cover of their ‘State Of Music Today’ issue back in April.

 

Now, 2010 looks set to be their year as they prepare for the release of their debut album. The first taste the world will get is “I Need Air,” a track that takes the dark, foreboding beat of dubstep but twists it into an edgy pop gem, complete with vocals from Angela Hunte, better known for co-writing the Alicia Keys track “New York State Of Mind.” It’s certainly a statement of intent and one that looks set to propel Magnetic Man into the stratosphere of contemporary, modern UK pop music.

 

“With all three of us doing it it’s going to get ultra-no-holds barred” says Skream. “This is Magnetic Man. It’s no longer three people: it’s a whole.”

 

The single comes backed with remixes by Red Light and Digital Soundboy. The band are set to play at this year’s Glastonbury – where they will be headlining the Dance West Stage - Wireless, Big Chill and the Reading/Leeds festivals. - HMV

Hurts are Theo Hutchcraft (vocals) and Adam Anderson (guitars, synths), who met while their mates were brawling outside a Manchester club. Initially forming glam-pop group and industry hyped Daggers, the duo realised they wanted to pull back and retain more control of their look and sound, retreating back to Germany and Italy where they perfected their own take on Disco Lento: mainstream pop with a dark undertone (think Leona Lewis’ Bleeding Love; Diana Vickers’ Once).

 

Since posting the original video to Wonderful Life on their YouTube channel just 12 months ago, Hurts have become one of the most talked about bands of the year.

 

The £80 video - £20 of which went on the unknown dancer they found via an advert in the local post office – sparked excitement not only in the music industry, but also with fans of all ages across the internet. Despite attempts to hide the song away, it racked up more than 1 million hits across youtube as fans reposted again and again.

 

Since that one video they have gone on to sign to Sony Music, and see the song become an international hit – topping the charts in Greece and Cyprus, becoming the most played song of the year in Denmark after radio stations ripped it off the internet and tearing up the German airplay charts (it’s currently about to enter the top 10).

 

Despite the excitement, the 2 Manchester-based musicians set up home in a rented basement studio in their Manchester base and – ever perfectionists - worked solidly on the album, Happiness, due to be released on September 6th.

 

Intentionally refusing to release much material, it was the video for Wonderful Life that eventually led to their signing to legendary songwriter (Spice Girls) Biff Stannard’s first label imprint Major Label, after they contacted him online to let him know their favourite Kylie Minogue song (it was Love At First Sight).

 

Since then they’ve been tipped into the Top 5 of the BBC Sound Poll, been on the cover of 4 magazines and received support from everyone from Kylie herself (who tipped their Better Than Love video via her Twitter profile) to Zane Lowe and Radio 1’s Huw Stevens. - HMV

Hurts still top 40 :D

For some reason, Wonderful Life reminds me of the boy band from the mid nineties DReam.

Hurts :wub:

 

The album is STILL amazing. I actually thought they'd skip it this week, but the guest presenters ALWAYS play more songs than Reggie...

'Enter The Ninja' - easily the worst song in the top 40. :puke:

Is some of this in Afrikaans, or is it just his accent? :lol:

 

Anyway, I quite like this, but I have NO IDEA WHY.

 

Props on just not bothering to pronounce Die Antwoord, Dev. Greg James can do it, why can't you?

Enter The Ninja has the SCARIEST music video ever. :wacko: Is that thing a real person? :unsure:

 

The chorus is quite catchy actually. :kink:

 

"If he's from Africa, why is he white?" :P
