VIDEO: K-Os – Zambony
K-Os is someone I really think we need more of – I mean everyone’s probably heard I Wish I Was Natalie Portman by now, but I think the quality that is K-Os needs more attention. I just don’t think I hear about this guy from people as much as I should. Anyway, the video for [...]

Now [...]

Remixed: Hollywood by Marina & the Diamonds
Marina & the Diamonds – Hollywood (Fenech-Rolex Remix) [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Marina and the Diamonds is the new quirky/weird/stand out UK songstress that has quickly become one-of-those-artists-they-love-to-remix. Her album, the Family Jewels, came out in February which is a pretty good first effort in my opinion. Her single “Hollywood” is a [...]

The very beginning of the song reminds me of Supernature-era Goldfrapp with heavy synths keys, some la-la-las, and a [...]
