Classics : The Avalanches - Since I Left You


The Avalanches are a group from Melbourne, Australia. This was a single off their debut album of the same name. On putting the album together members Darren Seltmann and Robbie Chater spent countless hours sampling the chords from many records. Chater estimates the numbers of samples on the album to be over 3,500. After sampling and arranging, the pair would swap their tapes, listen to each other's ideas and expand on whatever struck their ear. Also this music video won Best Video at the 2001 MTV Europe Music Awards.

Lady GaGa - Yoü And I


"Yoü And I" is produced by Robert John "Mutt" Lange, one of the most sucessful producers in rock history. He has worked with such artists as AC/DC, Def Leppard, Foreigner, Bryan Adams, The Corrs and most recently Maroon 5. He produced Shania Twain's "Come On Over" which is the best selling album by any female artist of all time! And it's one of my personal favourite albums ever. The backing vocals remind me of Shania and few good oldies of hers.

Battles feat. Matias Aguayo - Ice Cream


I'm not a fan of the song, but i couldn't look past the visuals in this clip. And i vaguely thought this looks familiar, then it hit me this looks like something CANADA would do. CANADA is a trio of filmakers Lope Serrano, Luis Cervero and Nicolás Méndez which are based in Barcelona, Spain. Some of their other work includes El Guincho's "Bombay", Two Door Cinema Club's "What You Know" and Scissor Sisters' "Invisible Light". I really like their work.

Jessica 6

Jessica 6 is a new trio from New York City. Lead singer Nomi Ruiz, bassist Andrew Raposo and keyboardist Morgan Wiley are all former members of Hercules And Love Affair and thus how they met. Their debut album "See The Light" will do just that on June 7.


The first single "Fun Girl" is a tale of desperation, fame and money.


And the current single "White Horse" is a catchy track which will get stuck in your head and maybe having you singing in the shower.

Gold Coast Cultural Precinct


"The Gold Coast is going to have it's very own cutural precinct! This hub would benefit the practices and exposure of local and international artists, and put the Gold Coast on the global map as a destination for arts and culture. Plans include a bigger art gallery, concert hall, live music venue, artist and performance studios, world movie theatre, science museum, history/cultural library and restaurants and cafes.

This is an exciting progress for our city, and much needed by not only the creative industry, but by the community at large. Gold Coast City Council needs the public’s support to help develop the overall vision and planning of this major project. So PLEASE have your say on OURCITYOURSAY.COM.AU by 8 April. The survey and comments are not limited to Gold Coast citizens, so spread the word!" by Mariam Arcilla

Classics : Prince - If I Was Your Girlfriend


Released in 1987. The song is actually sung from a male perspective to a woman, wherein Prince explores the possibilities of a more intimate relationship if he were his lover's (platonic) girlfriend. It is believed that "If I Was Your Girlfriend" deals with the jealousy Prince felt at the close bond shared between then girlfriend Susannah Melvoin with Wendy Melvoin. Best New Artist Grammy winner Esperanza Spalding performed a beautiful rendition of this song at last years BET Awards.

Cee-Lo - Bodies


This is my favorite song of his latest album "The Lady Killer", now this video is very unique and dope but i just feel it doesn't suit the song right. If was the director my vision would have been different, i would have done something more intimate like Cee-Lo and the leading lady and a dim setting flashing back to scenes in the bedroom etc. But props to Mikael Colombu for his job well done. And if that is really Janelle Monáe's cleavage, guurrl why you be hiding that?
