Glastonbury 2017: Avalon line-up announced

Birdy, the Hackney Colliery Band and The Mavericks are among the names added to the Field Of Avalon at this year’s Glastonbury, organisers have announced.

Revealed moments ago, the line-up also adds some gems for the pop fans out there too, with Busted (?!) and Sophie Ellis-Bextor also confirmed.

Oh, and look halfway-down too – it’s only Kiefer bloody Sutherland!!

Catch the full line-up below; story developing:

Listen: Zayn – ‘Still Got Time’ (Team Salut & Ray BLK Remix)

Zayn’s brilliant PARTYNEXTDOOR tie-up on Still Got Time has received a rework courtesy of Team Salut and the gorgeous Ray BLK.

Premiered on Mistajam’s Radio 1 show earlier this evening, the cut falls part of a new Still Got Time remix EP which features additional new edits from Vindata, Devi and House Party.

Zayn is currently hard at work putting the finishing touches onto his forthcoming second studio album, set to land this summer – Still Got Time is the confirmed first single.

Stream Ray BLK’s interpretation below:

Listen: Major Lazer – ‘Run Up’ (Sub Focus Remix)

Major Lazer kicked off the year in style back in January, hooking up with Nicki Minaj and PARTYNEXTDOOR on Run Up; today the joint gets a heavier spin with a thrilling remix courtesy of Sub Focus.

Catch it below:

Listen: MØ – ‘Nights With You’

MØ has announced her new single Nights With You, a track highly likely to appear on her anticipated second studio album, the follow-up to her 2014 debut record No Mythologies To Follow.

Speaking to Mistajam (who premiered the track earlier today), the Danish artist confirmed that she was “very, very, very close” to completing the album with many online rumours pointing to a late-summer release.

Catch Nights With You below:

Listen: Nas – ‘Systematic’ (prod. by DJ Shadow)

Just over one week on from sharing Angel Dust as part of the ‘Get Down: Pt.II’ soundtrack, Nas has delivered even more new music by hooking up with DJ Shadow for Systematic.

It’s yet to be confirmed if the track will fall part of Nas’ anticipated upcoming album (or even included in a new DJ Shadow record), but the joint sounds as good as you’d expect from a collaboration of this kind.

Catch Systematic below:

Listen: Malika – ‘Run’

After setting things alight with last year’s Put It On Me, Malika returns with her first piece of new music for 2017 via Run.

Lifted off her upcoming debut EP Songs About C, out later this year, the Bodhi-produced joint is the epitome of a jam. It’s vibey (thanks to Bodhi’s consistent solid productions), whilst Malika’s own power-vocals pave a strong lead for another UK entrant into the future R&B mould. Oh, and on that note, if you get a chance to ever hit up a Malika gig, don’t sleep on it; she is one bright star!

Listen below:

Listen: Gorillaz – ‘Saturnz Barz’ (Baauer Remix)

In case you’ve been living under a rock the past few weeks, Gorillaz have a new album on its way. Titled Humanz and out next Friday, the project has already been previewed by a wealth of lead singles (and associated remixes), and today comes another edit courtesy of Baauer which hears the Harlem Shake hero drop an alt-sinister rework of the Popcaan-featuring Saturnz Barz.

Listen below; Humanz can also be preordered over on iTunes using the link underneath too:

Fresh from being added to a host of festival line-ups this summer, including Radio 1’s Big Weekend and Glastonbury, HAIM have confirmed the imminent release of new music with a mysterious video.

Shared on their Twitter earlier today, the message sees Danielle Haim throw it all across her drum kit, with the camera then panning away to reveal “HAIM April 27th”.

It’s been almost four years since the HAIM sisters released their acclaimed debut Days Are Gone; since then they have received accolades from across the music sphere whilst adding a Grammy nomination along the way.
