MDS Sound of 2012: Alpine
30 November, 2011 1:43 PM
Formed in 2009 in Melbourne, this synth-pop sextet is probably one of Australia's most interesting new projects. With the fantastic vocals of Lou James and Phoebe Baker, the band's been gathering a strong following in their native Australia with their hypnotic approach of music and thankfully, they seem to be expanding their fan base. One of the reasons to that has to be their ever growing creativity when making muisc videos for their songs. Their videos for singles "Villages" and "Hands" are a clear example of this, both hugely inventive and attention-grabbing. With their debut album expected for early next year, expect to hear again from them very soon…

Gabrielle: "Bordet" Music Video
28 November, 2011 2:36 PM
This is a little old by now but it's equally amazing. Gabrielle is now back with her new single, "Bordet", a more dance driven track but as addictive as her #1 single "Ring Meg", which made her one of Norway's biggest newcomers. Released on October 21, the Norwegian XF contestant gives us a danceable yet highly listenable song and while it's not as amazing as her first tune, if this is the quality of material she's including in her album, this girl is due to be Norway's next poppet.

X Factor US 2011: Top 10 Perform: Rock
25 November, 2011 5:01 PM
It was ROCK NIGHT on The X Factor USA, and it was as flaccid as can be. A mere few acts shined tonight, but nary one inspired you to give a damn afterwards. The song choices were sketchy, agendas were running rampant, and some gimmicks are beginning to wear thin. I...have nothing else to add above here, so just look at my grades and stuff, 'cause otherwise, who cares?

After 10 weeks of competition, 400 hours of rehearsals, 142 performances and millions of votes, it all comes down to this. Last week, we lost the lackluster trio Three Wishez to public vote in what was a shocking elimination to some. This week, the remaining three finalists sing for Australia's votes one last time. Who will win it all? ... It's time to face the music!

X Factor UK 2011: Top 6 Perform: Movie Night
6:45 PM
Drama queen Kitty Brucknell was finally eliminated last week and now the top 6 is villanless. Kitty proved to be one of the most entertaining acts of the series but she had never warmed enough to the public. But a 7th place is really respectable, a place which past villan Katie Waissel achived last year. Now, the remaining 6 will take on songs from the movies in one of the most repetitive themes ever! Who'll be a blockbuster? Who'll be a flop? ... It's time to face the music!

X Factor US 2011: Top 11 Perform: Movie Night
21 November, 2011 6:53 PM
Well, it was MOVIE NIGHT here on Week 3 of the American version of Simon's televised paycheck. The song selections were basically "any song I want my act to sing on whatever soundtrack I could find". Very few actually chose songs that were integral to the plot of the films themselves...except for the best mentor/judge, L.A. Reid. One was an Oscar winner; another was a Grammy winner; and the other was a nominee. Very few others had anything to do with their respective cinematic attachments. In some instances, rather awful flicks were chosen to represent on their behalf. Major facepalms. Worse yet, the average grades of performances tonight have become the equivalent of a box office flop.

I'M LOOKING FOR A GERMAN TRANSLATOR, IF INTRESETED, EMAIL ME
We finally said goodbye to Kassim Auale, after he found himself in the B2 with Monique Simon, who made her 3rd visit to the bottom. Tonight the preassure is higher than ever as two acts will leave the competition. Who'll face the chop tonight? Will we have a shocker? ... It's time to face the music!

Haley Reinhart and Casey Abrams: "Baby It's Cold Outside" Music Video
5:46 PM
This is without doubt, one of the best duos that has ever come from American Idol. You all know by now that Haley is my favourite contestant ever and Casey is probably the other fave I've. Their incredible chemistry was first noticed when the pair performed the fantastic "Moanin". Now, Haley and Casey are teaming once more to take on another jazz standard, the holiday classic, "Baby It's Cold Outside", which will be available for download on Nov 21. While it's not as epic as "Moanin", their smooth jazzy sound works perfectly with it and this is possibly the cutest duo ever, making the music video really adorable!
