recent excitements

Having a full time job makes it difficult to post on here, oh well im ill today so here are a few exciting pieces of music i've been listening to this week...

We Were Promised Jetpacks
Seriously good, scottish Frightened Rabbit esque indie. Remind me a bit of the Walkmen as well. Album comes out next Monday (15th), definately worth buying, its awesome. Here a couple of tracks for you to preview.
We Were Promised Jetpacks-It's Thunder and It's Lightning
We Were Promised Jetpacks-Conductor
Mos Def
"The Ecstatic" is out today, sounding good on first listen, especially the following track "History" featuring Black Star collaborator Talib Kweili. Aparently a Black Star album is scheduled for a 2010 release!
Mos Def-History feat. Talib Kweli
Jay-Z
D.O.A (Death of Autotune) has been released as a street single for the September 11 release of Blueprint 3. Although Kanye was speculated to be producing the entire album, this is produced by No I.D.
Have a listen here
Keri Hilson
Yeah you read it right. Knock you down is huuuuuuge. Ne-yo proves his worth once again.
watch the video here
Keri Hilson is gonna be massive.
Milburn
Live set just been released to the internet, recorded at Manchester Urbis in 2006. Here is I Know Something You Don't Know, a song which previously had only been heard live, or on bad mobile phone recordings. Over a year now since they split :(

miss independaaaaaaaaaaaaant

Lol at the pixelated smiley...this is the sort of song I would have liked about 5 years ago lol...but it is actually really good! Although I haven't liked many of Ne-yo's previous efforts, this song is a winner, and he is undoubtedly a talented singer/songwriter in the R and B spectrum...He has writeen for Rihanna, Beyonce, Mario, Britney etc etc and is aparently working on the new Michael Jackson album, as well as writing for Usher, Chris Brown and Leona Lewis...he might just challenge for Usher's crown as the King of r&b soon...
