    Free Download: Miss Kate – You Took The Life

    MissKate

    I’ll be honest, I had heard the name Miss Kate but never took the time to investigate what was going on or who Miss Kate was. Then I heard this. This is the Black Magic Mix of Took the Life and is a intelligent, sophisticated piece of music taking elements of pop and mixing it up with contemporary urban beats and a dash of blues.

    This version of the track is supposedly available for 24 hours only but it’s still available to download to get to it pronto! You can download the track from the widget below or if your on a mobile device from Soundcloud

    Miss Kate has worked not only as a musician but also as an actress and her songwriting kicked off in New York in 2006. Back In Ireland she has been working with producer Jonathan Black and also with DJ Bobofunk.

    While you’re here you may as well check out the video, made with an iPhone and a white background in Kate’s kitchen. All the words were projected in real time, no funny after effects needed.

    Free Download: The Family Rain – Vulpicide

    TheFamilyRain1The Family Rain launch their debut album ‘Under The Volcano’ on Monday February 3rd and in the run up to the release have offered a free download of their track, ‘Vulcipide’, which will appear in a Spotify only version of the album.

    It’s a great intro to the trio, a driving rock song with effected vocals and when the hook kicks in, it really kicks in. The band have obviously thought about this a lot, making a pretty decent video for what is a free download. I love the green screen effect in the reflection of the kick drum beside the kick pedal. Yes, call me nerd!

    You can download ‘Vulipcide’ from the band’s website or by by filling in your email address here.

    Free Download: George Michael – Praying For Time

    GeorgeMichael_SymphonicaYesterday, The Legend That Is George Michael, announced the release of his new album. Since George’s Facebook and Website changed over Christmas to reveal an image of the red curtain that surrounded the stage during the Symphonica tour, it’s hardly surprising that the new album, is a live album from that tour.

    The album comes out on March 17th, in standard, deluxe and Blu-ray audio versions and those in the UK who pre-order will be entered into a draw to attend the screening of a documentary made about the Symphonica tour. I’ll be honest here, I’m a little disappointed that George’s cover of Rihanna’s Russian Roulette isn’t on there, cos it was simply stunning and if it was released could easily go Top Ten.

    Anyway, To coincide with the release Yog has given visitors to his website a free download of his 1990 single, ‘Praying for Time’, from the Symphonica Tour, complete with updated lyrics. So nip over there and get your mitts on it now.

    The first proper lead single is George’s rendition of the Terence Trent D’arby track, ‘Let Her Down Easy’ and is due the same day as the album. A video for ‘Let Her Down Easy’ sees George team up again with ‘Fastlove’ Director Vaughan Arnell.

    Quick Flashback: Here’s my interview with Shirley Lewis and Lucy Jules, George’s backing singers, from November 2011 when George played in Dublin.

    Hurrah for George!

    At the end of the first full working week of 2014, it’s nice to get a reward of sorts. Avec Sans have themselves remixed their current single ‘Shiver’ and are allowing it as a free download.

    The band announced it on their Facebook page this evening:

    Just in case you can’t see the widget, it’s available from Soundcloud or it’s available from the bands Facebook page alongside some other free downloads including The Answer and Heartbreak Hi.

    So when’s the album out? I hate waiting.
