Don't pee, what does she expect us to do put a peg on it.

Under Control :wub: A surprise grower for me ^_^

 

There have been 7 former #1's in the chart already, how stale. :P

Glad Under Control hasn't suffered another steep fall this week. I'm surprised it hasn't climbed actually!

Calvin Harris is 30 this week - now I feel old!

I really like this Calvin track now...why has it taken so long?? :dance:

Don't pee, what does she expect us to do put a peg on it.

Biography

Chase & Status — consisting of drum'n'bass DJs Saul Milton and Will Kennard — earned their stripes after remixing the rather questionable Capleton track "Duppy Man" to success in 2005. From there the duo had a few hit club singles — in 2007 with the double A-sided "Hurt You" b/w "Sell Me Your Soul" and 2008's "Take Me Away" — that hit the top of the U.K. dance and club charts. A full-length was finally released in 2008. Entitled More Than Alot, it featured appearances from Kano, Takura, and Digga, and was well-received critically; it won a 2009 Drum and Bass Award for best album. From there, Milton and Kennard dipped their toes into more pop-oriented production; "End Credits," a 2009 single featuring Plan B, entered the U.K. Top Ten and led to the 2011 album No More Idols, which featured collaborations with Dizzee Rascal, Tinie Tempah, and Cee-Lo Green. Spending 35 weeks in the U.K. Top 40, No More Idols went on to earn a double-platinum status. At the beginning 2012 the duo were nominated for Best British Group at the prestigious Brit Awards — a first for a drum 'n' bass outfit — yet were beaten to the gong by Coldplay. Not resting on their laurels, the duo spent 2012 playing live dates at festivals across the U.K. and Europe, including a sub-headline slot at the metal festival Download. As a thank you to fans for their support, the festival favorite "Big Man" — featuring vocals from Liam Bailey — was released at the end of 2012. In 2013, the duo released the single "Lost and Found" featuring Louis Ma^ttrs in preparation for their third studio album Brand New Machine which was slated for release later that year. ~ Chris True & Rich Wilson, Rovi / iTunes

Album Discussion Here

Another boring nothingy dance song. Yawn.

Alive :w00t:

 

Hopefully it can go Top 20 next week and we still have Sub Focus to come yet :D

 

 

Got to be honest, I really don't get the big deal about Chase & Satus. They're so incredibly average. :( (aside from their remix of Nneka's 'Heartbeat').

(37) Thank You-Busta Rhymes

 

Good tune from Busta and friends. Just wish the song was a little bit longer though.

New peak for 'Alive' (by one place) :cheer: Still comfortably top 40 and 2 weeks away from their record for most weeks in the top 40, but I bet it's still gonna stall at 6 weeks.

Whilst in the toilet just now, I thought we may need to don Adult Nappies for the duration of the show then.

 

I think you're reading a bit too much into that comment..

Alive :wub: :wub: :wub: Hopefully Number 15 next week!

'Alive' :wub:

Still a bit undecided on this one. The last two singles were better.

Got to be honest, I really don't get the big deal about Chase & Satus. They're so incredibly average. :( (aside from their remix of Nneka's 'Heartbeat').

 

Are you not a fan of End Credits, Lost & Not Found, Time or Blind Faith? Their best IMO. :wub:

Was going to say, most of the C&S discography is anything but average :P
