I was starting to question where my favourite Swedish four piece had disappeared to but it’s okay because they’ve returned with an absolute banger of a song. ‘Sugar’ is Urban Cone’s most diverse single yet and offers a pure funk and slick pop sound. It’s also their most mainstream ready song closely followed by ‘Old…
SINGLE REVIEW: Bebe Rexha – I’m A Mess
Bebe Rexha’s debut album ‘Expectations’ is finally going to be released next week but before she delivers the record in it’s entirety she’s decided to release one final single. ‘I’m A Mess’ is a rhythmic pop anthem that is about celebrating your imperfections and insecurities. The New York singer-songwriter does this in a very playful…
SINGLE REVIEW: Alessia Cara – Growing Pains
Canadian singer-songwriter Alessia Cara quickly became one of the most talked about newcomers when her breakthrough single ‘Here’ launched her career.

SINGLE REVIEW: Plain White T’s – Your Body & Bonnie I Want You
There are always a couple of key albums that impact you, inspire you or have you feeling a particular way while you’re growing up. One of those albums for me was The Plain White T’s ‘Every Second Counts’. That record was full of honest songwriting, pure emotion and kick ass hooks. It’s also an album…
SINGLE REVIEW: Sigrid – Focus
Norwegian indie-pop favourite Sigrid never seems to stop. She’s been continuously in between writing and recording her debut album as well as heavily promoting her recent singles ‘Strangers’ and ‘High Five’ all over the world. The best way to describe her is that she’s a little pocket rocket. And following the success of ‘High Five’…

SINGLE REVIEW: Martin Garrix feat. Khalid – Ocean
Is it just me or is Martin Garrix becoming a little predictable now? Sure, he has had some absolute anthems and I still get excited when I hear ‘In The Name Of Love’ or ‘Scared To Be Lonely’ played in a club but all of his structures are becoming very similar and over used. And…
SINGLE REVIEW: Kygo feat. Imagine Dragons – Born To Be Yours

SINGLE REVIEW: Whethan feat. Oh Wonder – Superlove
Oh Wonder have been busy touring the world in support of their sophomore studio album ‘Ultralife’ so I was quite surprised and excited to hear that we would be getting a new song from them.
