Listen: Martin Solveig – ‘Places’ (ft Ina Wroldsen) (Icarus Remix)

Martin Solveig’s Places has received a once-over by our faves Icarus, with the Bristolian duo delivering a glistening rework of one of last autumn’s biggest dancefloor tracks.

Initially released toward the end of last year, Places has already received nods from the likes of Danny Howard and Clara Amfo, and we’d highly expect Icarus’ remix to go to even further climbs. You might also recognise the vocals too btw; Norwegian singer/songwriter Ina Wroldsen notably leant her vocals to Calvin Harris & Disciples’ How Deep Is Your Love back in 2015.

Video: Missy Elliott – ‘I’m Better’ (ft. Lamb)

It’s been 12 years since Missy Elliott’s last studio album The Cookbook, and whilst all eyes had been on for a full-scale return after 2015’s WTF (Where They From), alas things started to simmer down soon after.

Fear not though as Missy is back once again with new song I’m Better. The track features Lamb, and comes with a ‘very Missy’ video (seriously, where DOES she find these directors?!). Oh, plus she’s also announced a new documentary too.

Catch the videos for both I’m Better and the documentary teaser below:

Ed Sheeran announces April 2017 UK & Ireland tour

Ed Sheeran has announced a string of UK and Ireland dates as part of his  Europe-wide 2017 tour. 

Kicking off in Dublin on 12th April, Ed will then travel to the UK, landing in Glasgow four days later, before gracing Newcastle, Manchester, Nottingham and Birmingham. Sheeran will then close the UK leg on 1st and 2nd May with a double show at London’s O2. 

**UPDATE: A third date at the O2 Arena has also been added due to overwhelming demand**

In order to combat any unfair and overpriced re-selling, Ed has also confirmed Twickets as the approved vendor for onward sales. In an email to his fanbase, he says “Also for this tour I’ve teamed up with a company called Twickets – which is a safe, sensible and fair place for people to sell or buy any spare tickets they have for the shows. Via Twickets, everything is at face value (or less), so you’re protected against fraud and hideous overpricing”.

Ed is currently sitting proudly at the top of the UK Official Charts with comeback-track Shape Of You; joint single Castle On The Hill is also at No.2, with both tracks lifted off his upcoming third studio album Divide, out in March. 

Check the full tour dates below; tickets are onsale now. Hit the link below for more info, whilst you can also watch the Castle On The Hill video underneath too:
