The French-pop, Paris based duo, The Dø have gotten nothing but stellar reviews on their new album Both Ways Open Jaws, and recent live performances. “A late contender for album of the year.“- The Times (London)
UK newspaper, The Independent album review said, “their multi-layered space-pop is as boundary defying as it is breaking…on the evidence of this one can safely say that The Do are the best French/Finnish duo in pop. Listen to ‘Dust if Off’ for proof”.

‘Outside the Skyline’ is an album that’s trademark Miguel Migs. Informed by house but no slave to metronomic dancefloor rhythms and tempos, it takes influences from jazz, reggae, soul and more, with a heavy emphasis on high-quality songwriting and equally high production values. Our very own bossa nova phenomenon Bebel Gilberto makes a special appearance on this album on the track ‘Zuzu” which you can stream above.

Natacha Atlas – Mounqaliba – Rising: The Remixes comes out September 27th, 2011. Until then we have David Starfire’s remix available as a free download (above) and you can pre-order the album now and save a couple of dollars.
After two highly acclaimed string driven, predominantly acoustic projects, Natacha Atlas returns to the Global Dance-floor with Mounqaliba-Rising: The Remixes. Globally celebrated singer Natacha Atlas’ latest release Mounqaliba was a decidedly acoustic affair, recorded with a 20-piece Turkish ensemble and a chamber orchestra & integrating western and Arabic styles. Mounqaliba (which means being in a state of reversal’ in classical Arabic) was a stunning set of original songs & evocative interludes, which also featured a beautiful version of Nick Drake’s classic “Riverman”.
From her days singing with Transglobal Underground to her seminal solo releases,Natacha is acknowledged as a pioneer in fusing Middle Eastern and Electronica styles. Mounqaliba-Rising: The Remixes finds the vanguard of the global fusion world paying homage to one of the most distinctive & beautiful voices in modern music.
