I wish Live In The Moment would smash in the US soon
i'm so into that rn!! it sounds so much bigger than 'Feel It Still' (both are great), i feel like it'd be huge on airplay and sales if it got a UK push.

This is a grower I must admit the collaboration with Bastille works perfectly
the bastille ft craig david song is great!!! the credit should really be the other way around, dan carries the whole song
Crazy that this is only Bastille’s third Top 10 hit. Bad Blood, Flaws, Things We Lost In The Fire, Send Them Off, and Good Grief especially are all superb and deserved so much more :heart:
Ouch at Rita Payne missing the top 10. Glad that Craig Bastille made it though

 

Pretty symbolic of the charts today that a NE misses out THIS week and a climber sells more!

the bastille ft craig david song is great!!! the credit should really be the other way around, dan carries the whole song

 

I’d agree but he doesn’t

 

I’d say there was stronger arguments in flipping the For YOu order or the Louis/Bebe collab

Biography

 

Big Shaq is the comic creation of Michael Dapaah, who created the online mockumentary series Somewhere in London, which featured a range of characters. Inspired by the London grime scene, Big Shaq appeared on various online freestyle videos -- including a spot on Charlie Sloth's Fire in the Booth -- before being referenced by British Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn in one of his political speeches. His debut single, "Man's Not Hot," appeared in September 2017. The tongue-in-cheek look at the grime lifestyle landed in the U.K. Top 100 singles chart on release. - iTunes

I hope it grows more on me. I don't find it as bad as I did at first, but the production I just find dull as hell. I'd love a punchy, melodic remix (120-130 BPM). I like the vocals but also don't think they go together. If I'm still saying this in a week's time I'll shut up forever about it :lol:

Crazy that this is only Bastille’s third Top 10 hit. Bad Blood, Flaws, Things We Lost In The Fire, Send Them Off, and Good Grief especially are all superb and deserved so much more :heart:

Agreed! But also "Laura Palmer" and "Torn Apart".

I'm glad this is heading in the right direction now.

Biography

 

During the '90s, Marc Kinchen, known commonly as MK, was one of the most idiosyncratic house producers, tempering his feel for soulful New York-styled garage with the energy of hard techno, learned from time spent working in Detroit at Kevin Saunderson's KMS Studios, while he added his uniquely dubby touch. After he attained significant success in the clubs, he moved toward the mainstream, worked closely with the likes of Will Smith and Pitbull, and eventually returned to the clubs as a sought-after producer, remixer, and DJ within the realm of commercial house music.

 

Kinchen's first production credit was "First Bass," as part of the group Separate Minds with Terrence Parker. The track was released on the 1989 KMS compilation Techno-1. Kinchen also recorded several singles as MK before he moved to Brooklyn in 1991, formed his own Area 10 Records, and released the single "Burning." The track became a moderate club hit, and led to remixing for the Shamen, Tom Tom Club, the B-52's, D-Influence, and, most notably, the Nightcrawlers, whose "Push the Feeling On" was transformed by his "dub of doom." Soon, Kinchen was one of the hottest figures in house music, and he signed to Charisma for an album deal. Kinchen's full-length debut was 1993's Surrender, credited to MK Featuring Alana (aka Alana Simon) and featuring the singles "Always" and "Love Changes," which became deep house club hits worldwide. Kinchen continued to remix for a motley assortment of artists -- Pet Shop Boys, Opus III, Ethyl Meatplow, Jodeci, and Brandy among them -- and recorded both as himself and 4th Measure Men.

 

After a lengthy retreat from house music that began in 1996 and entailed a close association with Will Smith, Kinchen easily resumed activity as a producer and remixer of club music, and as a DJ. During the early 2010s, he racked up dozens of remix credits for high-profile pop artists, including Lana Del Rey, Sky Ferreira, and Sam Smith. However, it was his remix of an underground track -- "Look Right Through," by Morgan Geist and Damon Scott's Storm Queen -- that was most successful, as it reached number one on the U.K. pop chart. Around the same time, there was renewed interest in Kinchen's early work, compiled by the Defected label's ITH division as part of its House Masters series. In 2015, Kinchen released "Bring Me to Life" (featuring singer Milly Pye) as the first single from an album he was preparing. Among the remixes was one carried out by Dantiez Saunderson -- the son of Kevin Saunderson. A second single appeared in 2016. "Piece of Me" featured Becky Hill on vocals and the remix EP included versions by Groove Armada and the Saunderson Brothers. - iTunes
