Every attempt to create ‘order’ always demands the creation of an equal amount of ‘disorder’. Yes fucking way.

acoustically pleasing painting

oh yes. Frenchie boy, Sliimy crept up about 5/6 months ago as Perez Hiltons‘ piece of work which put him in a certain box with the promising musical outlays of Lady Gaga, LadyHawke and Frankmusik of who he also noticed had a unique sound. His debut single, ‘Wake Up’ never fails to make me feel a little warm inside with his excitable feminine vocals, soft synths and playful rifs. His debut album, ‘Paint Your Face‘, is no different. Offering a variety of heavier, more varied melodies and vocals, this album is acoustically pleasing and full of warm fuzzys from start to end. It’s not doing anything particularly innovative which I thought I might with his vocal range but I must say, i’m thoroughly enjoying it. ‘Womanizer’ and ‘Paint Your Face’ are winners.

Us ‘Emeralds’ do love you. Marina and the Diamonds returned to our fair isle last night to play at the Academy in Dublin and Heinken Green Spheres in Carlow. (…and yes, I’m going to both.) Having seen her play at Electric Picnic already this year, I thought I knew what to expect. I was quite mistaken. The sound and non-acoustically pleasing surroundings of a tent evidently took away from the potential this lady’s voice has of making your hair stand on end. As she powered through her setlist, stomping around in killer heels, it is evident she’s ahead of the game. With the presence of an experienced diva and the personality of a kitten, she won over Dublin, judging by the crowds reactions.

Seated at her piano, she belted out ‘Numb’ and a wonderfully raw version of ‘Mowgli’s Road’, showcasing, once again, her incredibly unique and versatile voice. Ending on the what will be the released version of ‘Mowgli’s Road‘, she had us all smiling, dancing and wanting more.

This lady’s got it. It’s only up from here.

oh where does the time go?
