"Exotica" is a timeless disco track that is tailored for everyone’s tastes: from strident drum grooves to vocals that have been amazingly sown together. This track is a future club staple, paying tribute to Italian and German disco records as shown by being based around a replayed sample of 80’s Italo disco classic ‘Void Vision’by Cyber People. It should definitely be on your New Year’s Eve playlists, but we are more than sure that it will stay in your ears far after the big night into 2021. Purple Disco Machine stays at the top of his game with this latest release that is just a continuation of impressive work after remixes for Dua Lipa, Mark Ronson, Fatboy Slim, and one of his originals ‘In My Arms.’

Hailed by musicologist Nicolas Slonimsky as “the very last breath of the romantic spirit of Vienna”, Korngold’s stellar beginnings in Europe’s concert halls and opera houses were later overshadowed by his success in America where his soaring symphonic signature forged the template for the Hollywood soundtrack. But, as Korngold authority Brendan G. Carroll notes in his informative booklet essay, the composer’s “relatively small body of chamber works… is no less impressive and actually offers a succinct distillation of his style and voice, often to considerably profound effect”.

The UK has no shortage of neo-soul crooners, but few are as adept at storytelling as Joy Crookes. Her debut album is an evocative portrait of the artist as a young woman: by pulling at the threads of her identity – her Bangladeshi-Irish heritage; growing up in south London – and weaving them into wider sociopolitical themes, she has created a record that’s vibrant, urgent and brimming with life.

I ALWAYS KNEW THAT IF I EVER MADE A CHRISTMAS ALBUM, IT WOULD HAVE TO BE MUCH MORE THAN JUST A COLLECTION OF SONGS YOU ALREADY KNEW, I’D WANT IT TO BE A JOURNEY THROUGH SONGS THAT NOT ONLY HAD A PERSONAL SIGNIFICANCE TO MY LIFE, BUT ALSO A UNIQUE INTRODUCTION TO SONGS FOLKS HAD NEVER HEARD BEFORE, AND A RE-INTRODUCTION TO A FEW THEY MIGHT THINK THEY KNOW- BUT HAVE NEVER CONSIDERED DIFFERENTLY. EVERY ECLECTIC CHOICE LED THIS ALBUM TO FEEL ASTUTELY TRUE TO ITS NAMESAKE: A VERY, INDISPUTABLY, ‘ME’ CHRISTMAS.

Überraschung: Revolverheld veröffentlichen 2021 ein neues Album. »Neu erzählen« heißt der sechste Longplayer der deutschen Pop-Rock-Band, der Nachfolger des 2018 erschienenen »Zimmer mit Blick«, das auf Platz zwei der deutschen Charts landete.

Wie kann ein Album zugleich ein offenes Buch und ein "Geheimnis" sein? Das "Geheimnis" der Isolation ist beides zugleich, es scheint sich seinen Hörer*innen zu entziehen und sich ihnen anzubieten. Tobias Bamborschke, Sänger, Lyriker und Kopf der Isolation Berlin, buchstabiert sein Gedärme auf Papier, beleuchtet jeden Winkel seines Kopfes, will sich ganz offenlegen und behält dennoch in jeder Offenbarung das Wesentliche für sich. Als würde er seiner eigenen Offenheit und Ehrlichkeit misstrauen, müsste sich selbst vor sich beschützen. Es hat etwas Linkisches, wie er mit Ablehnung und Anziehung spielt.
