Listen: MJ Cole – ‘Pictures In My Head’ (VIP Mix)

MJ Cole has dropped off a scintillating VIP remix of last month’s Pictures In My Head.

Gone are the ‘old skool’ 2-step UKG stabs, instead morphed into 4/4 territories thanks to the pulsating synths and chopped vocals. Sublime.

Video: N.E.R.D. – ‘Lemon’ (ft Rihanna)

As speculated, N.E.R.D. debuted new music today, teaming up with Rihanna for Lemon.

Premiered as Zane Lowe’s latest Beats 1 World Record, the track marks Pharrell, Chad Hugo and Shay Hayley’s first piece of new music since 2010’s Nothing, with Rihanna’s appearance hearing her deliver some of her fiercest verses in a long time (including the potential LEMONADE-stabbing “I pull up with a lemon… your eyes get acidic”).

Watch the video below; there’s no news (as yet) as to when more N.E.R.D. music will come our way:

A new N.E.R.D. single may be announced as soon as tomorrow

1

N.E.R.D. are highly-speculated to be releasing new music tomorrow, following mysterious posters appearing across key cities since the start of the week.

The imagery, which reads N.E.R.D.’s acronym No_One Ever Really Dies has added further hype with both Pharrell Williams and Beats 1’s Zane Lowe hinting at a secret new song having its first play tomorrow (Wednesday 1st November)

The speculation doesn’t stop there, though – several music forums have been piecing parts of the web together, potentially leading to the new N.E.R.D. track hearing a collaboration with Rihanna. Users on LipstickAlley have noticed Rihanna and Pharrell both leaving a video shoot around the same time, with 24/7 Pop Culture also seeming to confirm the shoot too.

Exciting times ahead! Keep locked tomorrow where we’ll be bringing the full story as and when we have it.

Bestival announce 2018 plans; new Circus theme and new dates

Bestival organisers have announced their 2018 plans, with an all new theme and at a new time of year to boot.

Set to return for its second year at Dorset’s Lulworth Estate, Bestival 2018 will now take place on 2nd-5th August, one month prior to its usual September fixture. The event will also continue Bestival’s historical vibrancy by moving into a circus theme for the year.

Details are obviously scarce at the moment (expect line-up teasers and announcements to kick in from the start of the year), but the press release promises a host of circus acts, including “Art Car Night Circus Parade, Caravanserai flying trapeze, fire eating, knife throwing, bearded ladies (and men!), the Insect Circus Museum, sword swallowing, our hall of mirrors, circus workshops…. and free haircuts”.

Ticket go onsale this Friday (3rd November) at 10am over on Bestival’s website – head over here for more info.
