Noah and the Whale remixes

I've never really been a big fan of remixes, they often kill songs and make them sound just bloody awful. But after searching Noah and the Whale on soundcloud out of curiosity, I came across two remixes which were from Noah and the Whale's own account which is cool!

The first is this, it's a great Bibio remix of Waiting For My Chance To Come. It's unlike anything I've ever heard and it makes the song sound totally different but It doesn't ruin it, I love the song and I…

Insert epic blog post about how great Friendly Fires was here

Apologies for not posting lately but I was going to wait and then have a fab post about how great Friendly Fires were at Rock City in Notts but unfortunately, Ed has got a throat infection so they had to cancel :( Luckily though they have been arranging more dates so that shouldn't be too far away and you'll have lots of awesome pictures of Ed dancing through the gig!

Charlie (natw) and Ed should totally have a dance off.

Anyway, keep viewing and you'll soon find…

Alas I Cannot Swim

The first song I heard from Laura Marling was ''My Manic and I'' I really did enjoy the song but the music at the time I was listening to was so different I just never really took any interest after that one encounter.

Recently I have re-discovered her and I am very, very impressed! She's a beautiful singer with a such a delicate voice and what I like most is how diverse her songs are. You have ''Blackberry Stone'' from I Speak Because I Can which has a very, I suppose,…

Cora Hamiltion, a girl definitely to keep your eyes open for.

Cora Hamiltion is a 15 year old girl from the UK who has lately been posting covers of songs onto her Sound Cloud and they are breath-takingly fantastic. Like many would, I had a slight impression before listening to them that they would be the average kareoke-type cover just like every other teen who wishes to be an artist, but I could not be more wrong as Cora is extremely talented. Although It Isn't exactly my choice of program, Cora is auditioning for Britain's Got Talent UK very…

New Noah and the Whale Blog Entry

I watch very little television but just recently my attention was drawn to a BBC2 documentary called ‘A Band For Britain’. The programme follows Sue Perkins as she attempts to breathe new life into the Dinnington Colliery Brass Band. It was quite simply one of the funniest, most moving and most affecting things I have ever seen.

I have two reasons to be particularly vulnerable to a programme like this. Firstly because on my mother’s side of my family, my great grandfather was a coal… Continue
