Announced moments ago, and set to be premiered this coming Thursday (1st November), Streisand’s inclusion sees her follow on from Michael Bublé’s appearance on the segment for last week’s Stand Up To Cancer charity appeal.

Hear Connie Constance reflect on materialism with ‘Fast Cars’

Connie Constance has shared her brilliant new single, ‘Fast Cars’.

Coming ahead of her upcoming London headline show, the track hears the young Watford-born artist discuss her strive for creativity in a world that’s focused on materialism.

Alongside the song, Constance has also shared a striking video in which she explains “I wanted us to be the materialism that the song is talking about. I want my friends and I to dress up Marie Antoinette style and be self obsessed and enjoy every moment of it – I want us to create a universe where people of our backgrounds and skin colours would have lived in castles like Knebworth instead of being cut out of British history.

Hear Black Coffee’s deep remix of Agoria’s ‘Embrace’

Following his summer residency at Hï Ibiza, widely acclaimed South African DJ & producer Black Coffee has teamed up with Aquatone to deliver his brand-new remix of Agoria’s ‘Embrace’.

Blessed with a deep bassline, and the emotive vocals of Phoebe Killdeer, the rhythmic rework of ‘Embrace’ follows a global run of tour dates for Black Coffee, including spellbinding sets at Coachella, Tomorrowland, and New York’s Terminal 5 venue so far this year.

Of the new remix, Agoria says “The first time I met Nathi, we were sharing the decks with Solomun at an insane party for the wedding of Giovanna Battaglia, cruising and playing on a Cargo around Capri…From that point we started to exchange messages and I got to know him a bit more, playing a few parties with him. So when I thought of the right artist who could share best the same vision, the same message we defended with Phoebe… « Embrace the world, concept of life, give up the ego,… », I believed he would be the perfect soul for this tune. I’m so happy he agreed.”.
