Jamie xx 'In Colour'
Fluid from start to finish, love this.
-
Blood Orange - Chamakay
Seems like anything he touches or does is pretty much gold and "Chamakay" is no exception to that. Love it.
-
Cut Copy 'Free Your Mind'
Stoked for this upcoming album. Their discography is very solid generally speaking.
-
Janelle Monáe - The Electric Lady
She delivered yet again. So far this is my personal AOTY and I'll be surprised if anything else beats it out by the end of the year. "Ghetto Woman" is just brilliant.

Annie - The A&R EP
This is literally my favorite release of the summer so far. "Invisible" is just massive and in general this is a great EP.
-
Charlotte Church - "Glitterbombed"
lol was not expecting that. I totally see the Kate Bush vibe with "How Not To Be Surprised When You're A Ghost" and love it.

Jessie Ware 'Devotion' ıı August 20 2012
"Taking In Water" is just so perfect. I doubt it would ever get a singles release, but it should in my opinion. I suppose "Swan Song" would probably be the safest route in that department though for a release.

Loving the album, I had to crumble and listen to the stream of it and ugh it's so good.

Sam Sparro - Return To Paradise
Praise the lord for the search function on here. His voice is just something I could listen to forever and ever. Sam is very easily my favorite male vocalist to pop around in the past 5 years. The new album is pretty good, I'd say on a consistency level it's better than the self titled album actually to be entirely honest. I think the record company got it wrong (or Sam, whoever) by pushing back the release date and also him just kind of doing features, some writing for others, and buzz singles for like 4 years? I think "Shades of Grey" is awful, but outside of that I love all the tracks from the new album. It obvious throwback sounds of 80 percent of the album makes me happy too. I just love how he totally channels Larry Levan kind of vibes with the arrangement of some of these tracks.

Ellie Goulding - Halcyon
I'm all for progression, but I wouldn't have complained either if she stuck more with the electro sound like with Lights. I'm looking forward to how this new era unfolds, but "This Love (Will Be Your Downfall)" will probably stick as my favorite Ellie song.. pretty underrated, but such ear candy for me.

Lucie Jones - TBA
I realize that. That is why I said I was going to reserve judgment until recorded material is out of course lol. I hope she gets some momentum going, but part of me thinks she shouldn't have waited so long to get the ball rolling on this. This is an independent venture right?
