Somehow I am still making this blog after 2 weeks (does a little celebration dance), and in this issue there's a jazz hip hop maestro, a cold, cool electronic music genius and a new feature which I call worst song of the week. Enjoy, and as always feel free to send feedback :)

Rainy Milo
18 year old former Brit School alumni, Rainy Milo is a confident and adroit starlet in the making, she serves up her own diverse form of 'jazz-inspired hip hop'. Indeed the smooth jazzy beats compliment the lax nature of her voice with an added edge in the truthful London accent that she carries with her, heavily reminiscent to Lily Allen. The unique nature of this never-done-before style of music perhaps came from how Rainy from youth chose to surround herself with 'inspiring people', choosing to act against the status quo of her upbringing in which people "were told that they had a crappy fate and were willing to just go along with it.". The gritty reality of her lyrics as seen in songs such as ''bout you', a exotic cocktail of delights accompanied with a groovy base, succumbs the listener to more. As well as other songs. such as 'miss you', a laid back, summery piece of laid back r&b. Listening to Rainy Milo is like laying down on a sun bed just outside a New York jazz club, whilst being in London at the same time. Perhaps Rainy's songs aren't catchy enough for her to achieve success with a mainstream audience, but this young diamond in the rough shows much promise and can look forward to a glimmering future. If you like Amy Winehouse or Corrine Bailey Ray, I suggest adding Rainy Milo to your collection.

SOHN

SOHN an English electronic music artist nowadays based in Vienna. This move perhaps has been key to the compelling sound he makes, the cool, tranquil mountain landscape yet also the animated city life coming through in his music. SOHN's sound is rather reflective yet also energy enthused with edgy, epic beats, 'Tremors', perhaps his most noteworthy piece of work, is a monumental piece of frighteningly forbidding dance music, slivering up to a peak as the volcano of sound explodes half way through the song. The only slightly more upbeat 'Artifice' has a deep sense of almost nauseous
overload as SOHN mumbles 'somebody better show me how I feel'. Reminiscent to James Blake and
Banks in the hostile music made, SOHN is an artist I heavily recommend.

Best Song of the Week:

Silver Lining by First Aid Kit
An eclectic piece of orchestral country pop, First Aid Kit, as a duo sing with pain in their voices much older than their years, over the bittersweet nature of life. It is simply beautiful.

Worst Song of the Week:

#twerkitlikemiley by Brandon Beal and Christopher
I know I'm going to dislike a song once I see a hashtag at the beginning of the title, and boy this song doesn't disappoint. It isn't the dull beat or even the irritating voice of Christopher, 'Denmark's answer to Justin Bieber', that annoys me the most. It's the whole thesis of the song, the fact that anyone could in their right mind find it attractive seeing someone twerk like Miley Cyrus, many I'm sure are still struggling to recover from that VMAs performance...
