Personal Opinion: Okay, so I might have ranked him a little highly, but I do enjoy his songs.

 

"Bio: Sir Thomas Jones Woodward, KBE (born 7 June 1940), best known by his stage name, Tom Jones, is a Welsh pop singer particularly noted for his powerful voice. He was born in Treforest, near Pontypridd in South Wales.

He rose to fame in the mid-1960s, with an exuberant live act which included wearing tight breeches and billowing shirts, in an Edwardian style popular amongst his peers at the time. He was known for his overt sexuality, before this was as common as it became in subsequent years.

 

In 1963 he became the frontman for Tommy Scott and the Senators, a local beat group. Clad all in black leather, Tom soon gained a reputation in the South Wales area. The Senators were still all unheard of in London.

 

In 1964 they laid down a few tracks with maverick Telstar producer Joe Meek, and took them to various labels in an attempt to get a record deal. The plan was to release a single, Lonely Joe/I Was A Fool, but the ever-flighty Meek refused to release the tapes. The group returned to South Wales and continued to play gigs at dance halls and working mens clubs. One night, at the Top Hat in Cwmtillery, Tom was spotted by Gordon Mills, a London-based manager originally from South Wales. Mills became Tom’s manager, and took the young singer to London. He also renamed him Tom Jones. The Senators became the Playboys, and later still the Squires. "

 

Edited by Leonardo

I don't care much for Devlin, but Runaway is so good :wub: :wub: :wub: deserved a much higher peak than it got!
This. This. THIS. 'Runaway' is sensational! One of my favourite tracks from last year! (Although I only first heard it this year :(! )

 

Nothing too shocking just yet. Frankmusik only just missed out on points from me :(

I saw Tom Jones live at Isle of Wight... he was incredible! :lol:

 

Awful list so far btw.

Wait how is Tom that high off 7 points yet others have more points and are lower?
'Cooler Than Me' was a fantastic song, but unfortunately Mike's later singles 'Bow Chicka Wow Wow' and 'Please Don't Go' were rather dull and generic soppy album material tracks. :(

Personal Opinion: Quite liked his singles last year, nothing really special so far though.

 

"Bio: Professor Green is a pop rapper/singer from East London, currently signed to Virgin Records, after Mike Skinner’s The Beats label closed, and ended a run of his own radio shows on BBC Radio 1.

 

Having fortified his name storming through the hip-hop battle rap circuit, 27 year old East London native Professor Green is set to drop his debut album on Mike Skinner’s The Beats label (via Warner’s).

 

Growing up on the Northwold estate in Upper Clapton, Green’s familial situation saw him being raised by his grandmother while he traded up school attendance for just hanging on the estate, like kids do. While the usual nefarious stories of low budget living played a part in his life, Green’s formative years were also characterised by fun: skating was big on the estate, etc. He also had an early inkling that the art of verbal sparring would somehow play a part in his life, confessing how, he always wanted to be a barrister or a lawyer. “I like debates and I’ve always been argumentative, I think that’s helped me in battles a lot.”

 

However, while becoming obsessed with hip-hop at the age of nine “Biggie is my greatest hip-hop influence”, Green only switched up from passive fan to active participant at a relatively late stage. After turning 18 years old, he coined his first rhyme completely off-the-cuff when put on the spot at an impromptu freestyle jam session round a friends house. Passing the test with aplomb and impressing his music making peers, the underground rap battle scene suddenly opened up before him. "

"Bio: Frankmusik (birth name Vincent James Turner) is a producer, songwriter from Thornton Heath, South East London, England. According to Songfacts, “Frank” is derived from the surname of his grandfather, whose name he took in tribute.

One day, he decided that it was high time that he made some pop music that was a little different. Through a combination of retro synths, Commodore 64 samples, fast chunky drum riffs, and tried and tested lyrics, Frankmusik decided to get the ball rolling in 2007 and was signed to Island/Universal December of that year. His debut album “Complete Me” was released on 3 August 2009. "

Personal Opinion: Not usually my thing but I do love some of his songs, and the video to "Come To Daddy" is one of the most disturbing videos ever.

 

"Bio: Aphex Twin, born Richard David James, August 18, 1971, in Limerick, Ireland to Welsh parents Lorna and Derek James, is an electronic music artist. He grew up in Cornwall, United Kingdom and started producing music around the age of 12.

 

Richard has been hailed as “the most inventive and influential figure in contemporary electronic music” with his works ranging from ambient pieces to acid techno.

 

Quoted in Mixmag Richard said ” I just love electronics and music and putting the two together just came naturally. I did electronics in college. Electronic music is just so lush basically I love messing with acid, jungle, and playing it out to my mates in a night club. Get out there and dance. Let’s have it! If anyone’s coming to my shows I just want everybody to just dance and have a laugh basically.” At a Rephlex party in 2001 Aphex Twin was asked by a journalist if he used the term IDM and he replied “only for rubbish mp3.com music that I don’t really like, basically if I say that it’s for something shit that I don’t care about. It’s just funny how online people just copy each other and it’s so lazy. Quite funny I reckon.”

 

In 1991 Aphex formed the Rephlex record label with his friend Grant Wilson-Claridge. Signed artists include Mike Paradinas (aka µ-Ziq) and Squarepusher.
