Here are some of the highlights. First up, Swedish pop star Agnes who won the award for musical act about to blow up. Also watch Little Boots and Dan Black. I have ALL their albums and they do not disappoint. Watch and learn. Check your local listings for the Logo channel. They are re-running the show all week. [source]
The excellent Dan Black, whose album I raved about here a while back, is hitting hard in the States, so to promote his album UN, iTunes is offering the video for his single Symphonies for FREE!!! Click HERE to get your very own. It's a really cute, clever video for an amazy catchy song.
Every week, iTunes has a free track to download and a couple of weeks ago it was an artist called Dan Black. Before downloading the song, Symphonies, I read some of the reviews and I was intrigued. People either loved it or hated it. One reason was because the song samples the beat from Umbrella by Rihanna. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THAT??? People sample ENTIRE songs all the time. It made me want it, so I downloaded it. Fast forward a week and I got the entire album because I'm obsessed with the song. A cross between Mika, Owl City and some indie band, Dan Black has a nice voice, the songs are very cool and this video for Symphonies is soops amazy. No joke, watch it and see. Don't be a douche. Just watch it! You can sample the songs and get Dan's album HERE if you have iTunes installed. It's only 7.99 right now.
