DUA LIPA DROPS THE ULTIMATE 'LEVITATING' REMIX.(ft.DaBaby)

Image
Today Dua Lipa releases a new video for 'Levitating', featuring DaBaby(Billboard baby). It seems that the Blessed Madonna, Missy Elliott and   Madonna were not enough (at least  commercially or chartly enough).  With  'Hallucinate' out of the US singles chart and  peaking on number 31 on the UK Official single chart, Dua is ready for a proper new single. 'Let's make it 2020' - Dua must be thinking. This decision is maybe promoted by 'Club Future Nostalgia' failure: Only selling 28K in its first week, after changing its release date to a week later. One great thing brought back in this remix is adding back the chorus. The Blessed Madonna remix speeded up the song, eliminating the chorus parts, which were the key of IDGAF's success.   It is remarkable that Dua decides to do two remixes of the same song, instead of dropping music videos for singles off Future Nostalgia. 'Love again' or 'Pretty Please' might be a good idea for singles...

MICHAEL KIWANUKA WINS 2020 MERCURY PRIZE- WATCH HIM DISCUSSING THE INSPIRATION FOR THE ALBUM.

 Last Thursday Michael Kiwanuka was announced as the winner of the 2020 Mercury Prize. After the big announcement, Michael performed ' Light' on Later...with Jools Holland  .  Early this week, Michael talked to the Mercury Prize's Youtube channel about the inspiration and the making-of the album. Based on 70s Black Music, Michael is not afraid of embracing his roots, his heritage. He is confident like never before. That is why the album is called ' KIWANUKA'.  There is some kind of joy on the record, shown in ' You Ain't The Problem ', an ode to confidence and persistence on being true to yourself . African drums melt with the alt-rock spirit (emphasized with warm vocals, such as in ' Rolling ') that exists throughout the whole album and a raw honesty in the lyrics. There is also time for searching hope  ( I've Been Dazed) in a religious way and for delicious piano-ballads-interludes.  'Hero' addresses Black Lives Matter.  The reviv...

TEO PLANELL- ME VAS A MATAR.

Image
 Esta semana Teo Planell ha presentado el primer single de su esperado primer disco, Me vas a matar. Con un aire más oscuro que Allá donde quiera que estés , Me vas a matar  continúa con sus habituales letras poéticas y tono íntimo, y explora una historia de amor que parece acabada, pero sobre la que el artista reflexiona y piensa en alto.  En Me vas a matar las guitarras se funden con los sintetizadores, que llegan a recordar a  Somebody Else  de The 1975 (minuto 0:50).  El sencillo viene acompañado de vídeo inspirado por el documental de Taika Waititi, Lo que hacemos en las sombras (2014). Además de reflejar la preocupación estética y de carta de presentación visual, los vídeos musicales de Teo Planell -que, recientemente, ha estado organizando sesiones en el Pequeño Cine Estudio de Madrid ( Paris, Texas o Taste of Cherry han sido las películas elegidas)-vienen mostrando su interés por el cine, complementando así el lanzamiento de los temas.
