Gorillaz return with Stylo
Hello hello! Some great stuff in my playlist this week. Lets start with a great new track “Stylo” from Gorillaz that features Mos Def and Bobby Womack. What what! Its definitely a bad ass return-to-form. Also, new music from Corrine Bailey Rae and Spoon. There’s also recent goodness from Massive Attack, Sade (who has a new album coming out shortly), and Jimmy Wayne. I decided that Jimmy’s rendition of “Sara Smile” could make it on to the list because of its sincerity, even though it lacked in adding anything new in its interpretation. There’s a new piece from Akon that has a lot of energy (yet it seems strangely forgettable). I found myself nodding and dancing to Shiny Toy Gun’s version of “Major Tom”. Even a lovely seductive listening experience from Groove Armada and Cat Power. Enjoy and until next time – I wish you ear exstasy. (Note: there’s a list of YouTube links for our international friends).
