New Music Review #19

Another ten tracks we recommend!

Adam Lanceley - Those Rose Tinted Days

'Those Rose Tinted Days' is a driving indie-number with a positive vibe that lifts it up, creating a strong indie feel to the piece. (6.5/10)

Chromatone - Fever

With a funky seventies vibe, 'Fever' boasts a catchy chorus and a great electro-synth vibe. Great. (7/10)

The Everly Pregnant Brothers - Chip Pan



There's a bit of a karaoke feel to this record that makes it less appealing but in terms of witty lyrics and a retro throwback it's hard not to laugh and enjoy the parody of Kings of Leon. (6/10)


Fancy Cars - Set Me On Fire



'Set Me On Fire' is a soaring indie-club number that builds up and avoids some of the expected tropes as it gets a little more dance-focussed. (6/10)

Hayley McKay - Unspoken



McKay boasts some great vocal chords and when combined with this touching, well written stripped back pop ballad it shines. (7/10)

The Imagineers - Utopian Dreams (Radio Edit)



There's a bit of a Muse feel to this dark sounding record, before it gets into more of a sixties-indie feel. Great and different. (6.5/10)

Janet Devlin & Jason Nevins - Outernet Song (Remix)




Here is a great bouncy remix of one of our favourite songs of the year, keeping the message whilst adding a more club-friendly feeling. (7.5/10)


The Lancashire Hotpots - Hotpot Funk (Don't Forget The Red Sauce)



We don't really need another Uptown Funk parody, especially one year on, but the Hotpots have recorded a cracking little parody, and though the music is more karaoke backing track than their usual offerings this is very funny and even boasts a sing-a-long section. (7/10)

Steve Aoki & Louis Tomlinson - Just Hold On



It's perhaps a little generic but there's something upbeat and likeable about the record that keeps you listening. A good one for the clubs. (6/10)

Tony Shaw - Take Me Away (Karrades Club Mix)

'Take Me Away', in its remix form, is a catchy, fast club track that grows with each listen. Well worth a punt. (6/10)
