1. Imploding The Mirage- The Killers. This album has an incredible way to capture immensity and euphoria (of finding trust,love and unavoidable faith), as it is shown in the wild synths on My Own Soul's Warning (with Bruce Springsteen's influenced vocals) and Dying Breed. However, it is also able to draw peaceful joy , like in the serene 'Blowback'. The record is an enchantment and delight of finding a new way full of authentic feelings, excellently brought to music. Maybe that belief in authenticity and powerful love is what we needed this year.
2.Foolish Loving Spaces-Blossoms. The Stockport band succeeds in their complete and finest analysis of love, which makes you swim through alt -rock ('Your Girlfriend' and 'Like Gravity') and pop perfection ('Oh No (I think I'm in Love)' and 'Swimming Brain') .
3.After Hours-The Weeknd. An unexpected bet for pop without leaving R&B. His admiration for 80s pop came just in time when pop seemed to be disappearing for hip/hop and trap. With vibrant and contagious synths, pop has bloomed again.
4. La vita nuova - Christine and the queens. An elegant closeness to sadness. Christine touches pain with a sutile, perfect amount of sadness('People I've been Sad' and 'Nada' or 'Mountains' ). Intense feelings are in the focus and her inspiration on the passionate love story between Dante and Beatrice proves it. Desire, the euphoria of founding it and tears flood in La vita Nuova
5. Future Nostalgia-Dua Lipa. Another certain bet for pop, disco and dance music. Bringing back pop never felt more enjoyable. It was risky to take pop back to the top of the charts instead of going with an R&B and trap beats,and Dua has revived pop, even with a sample excess.
In 2018, John Mayer released the song New Light. The track, with 80s influences and great synths, sounded funky pop and different to his previous work. As he said on Twitter, he had some disagreements on the budget for the music video. The final result was a funny video shot completely by Fatal Farm on greenscreen using common images and enjoying John's sense of humor. Jeffrey Max of Fatal Farm, director and creator of the video, took some time to chat about the making of the video and the inspiration behind it: What inspired you for the video? How the song inspired to create the music video? 'John approached us with the idea of a "mall kiosk" style video. The kind of novelty video that anyone could walk up and pay for. He knew he wanted to do the whole thing on greenscreen and let us just find the best moments in the edit. The song is a reflection on getting older and changing, but the video idea seemed very rooted in the sloppiness of youth. That juxtaposition ...
This week's top 10 has got two new entries , which are Uzi's À la fête, on number10 ( with more than 10 million views on Youtube since June) and Wejdene's COCO ( number 3 this week after entering last week in number 27), her second top 10 after the success of Anissa. On number nine Bosh's Djomb goes down one place. It was a summer hit and it seems that it is going to leave the top 10 by the end of the summer. Franglish and Tory Lanez collaboration , My Salsa, is down one place after peaking in number six . In that position is, this week, Hatik's Angela. It reached number one in July despite its release in December. The track gained popularity after Hatik's role on Validé. THE TOP FIVE: After ruling the charts , NInho and Dadju's Grand Bain descends one place in the charts as well as Aya Nakamura's Jolie Nana goes down one place after being number one for a few weeks. Burna Boy's remix of Jerusalema is on number two and we will see if it final...
Midland dropped ' The Last Resort ' a few weeks ago. It's the second project from the band this year: In March, they released The Sonic Ranch , an album made of their old and unreleased songs. Now, The Last Resort is the first collection of new songs since their second album , Let it Roll in 2019. Despite the EP only includes five tracks, it's a pleasant listening. The sound contains some rock and electric guitars that melt with Midland's classic country sound. The result is delicious. The first piece is the post-break-up And Then Some , with mellow sadness. This start is much closer to their origins on The Sonic Ranch . There is a bittersweet feeling in every song (except from Two To Two Step , that will get you dancing), which is far from the debauchery and living to the max of the 21st Century Honky Tonk American Band... That's also shown in the first single and second track, Sunrise tells the story. It brings back cheating to the narrative, but i...
