Perhaps Ri-ri’s going through a whole change-of-image phase. With a hardly recognizable Rihanna in a new song called “Diamonds” from her upcoming untitled new album, we’d have to say change bodes well with her.  Describing the song as “happy and hippy” exacts the feel of the tune and the uplifting lyrics. By the sound of it, [...]

Durkin: Wa.na.be

Boston-based DJ and producer Durkin, works his music magic and concocts a dope rework of Goldie’s 1994 hit single, “Innercity Life” and entitles it “Wa.na.be”. Even with the drum and bass, it’s the perfect tune to be playing on a nice, windy night driving around the city in your topdown. There you go. That sums [...]

Tame Impala: “Elephant”

It starts with the beat. And then the shredding of the guitar. And you just can’t help it, you have to bob your head, tap your toes and lose yourself in the sound. This is the effect that Australian band Tame Impala‘s “Elephant” has on me. Sounds like a classic rock n’ roll tune, doesn’t [...]
