Cast A Light
Cigarettes are disgusting.If cigarettes got me high, I may reconsider the health implications occasionally.If cigarettes tasted like Ben & Jerrys Ice Cream, then I may reconsider the health implications occasionally.They don’t do either so I don’t understand how so many of you can actually spend your hard earned cash on the things when they do [...]

It’s a Sunday morning and whether you’re preparing lunch, relaxing at home or preparing for a visit to the shops there’s no doubt music can play a part today.I’ve got a flat tyre on my car so now I need to scour the internet for an establishment open on a Sunday – slightly stressful but [...]

Ian Brown Returns
Ian Brown is back and he’s returned with one of his strongest songs to date.Stellify is the first single from the upcoming album and the original monkey man has blown me away.The video is as definitive as the song itself. Brown is trooping through Manchester with a full marching band behind him like a [...]

The Cassette Years Vol. 3
Channel 4 had White Men Can’t Jump on late last week and it’s got a classic hip-hop soundtrack. I remember watching this film when I was seriously young and my dad covering my eyes during that shower scene with Harrelson and Perez.As soon as I heard this song I knew it would be the next [...]

Fink About It

Artist:

Album:
I’ve always loved Fink -- since I first heard his debut album back in 2005 I’ve been hooked on his sound, his voice and his outlook on music.I’ve seen Fink live three times and as some of you may know -- his music requires near complete silence because it’s so gentle. In most cases his music [...]

Their album, Unmap, is due out in late September [...]

Kiss Of Life

Artist:
August 2009. London, United Kingdom. Dull summer.The sun hasn’t properly shown its cocky bright face for weeks now, and the capital is greyer than ever. I was about to surrender to the dark forces ruling weather in Britain and say goodbye to any chance of feeling warm again (oh dear, what a dramatic intro). Then [...]

Long Live The British Summer
If as a tourist, you came to London in the past month, you would honestly believe that the British Airways pilot secretly diverted to India during its monsoon season.It has rained everyday for a month and the (so called) summer is drawing to a close!Depressed is an understatement for how much the British public (including [...]

Strawberry Swing
This is easily one of the best videos of year in terms of the artistic idea and how successfully it worked. It would have taken hours and hours to complete.Hats off to Shynola who directed it.

Spark Plug
She’s Got Me Dancing and the remixes were a huge hit on Mahogany and we loved them, for a while. Luckily I’ve managed to get my hands on the first track from the upcoming album, due out in late August and it’s got me excited for what the rest of the album has in store.This [...]

Cougar Microbes are marching in like army ants
If The Mahogany Blog were to thank anyone it would be Cougar Microbes.The London based Blog helped us get set up and the advice was invaluable.Running since 2008 – the wide array of music posts ranging from a fantastic Duffy cover by Third Degree to an incredible Beastie Boys remix, Cougar Microbes was one of [...]

Jack Beats Does Florence!
Florence has already been remixed by everyone under the sun and so the next one would have to be by someone really special and luckily it is!Jack Beats have done a stunning remix of the new single Drumming Song by Florence & The Machine.It’s not quite what I expected from Jack Beats whose trademark sounds [...]

Turn The Page
Watched the trailer for the new Clive Owen film earlier – it looked like something I’d generally avoid but the song in the background got my attention.It’s from a Californian singer/songwriter called Matt Hires. Usually this stuff wouldn’t appeal to me but there’s something about it that I really like.His MySpace makes him look a [...]

Disco Pusher
Hearts on Fire was already one of the best pop-dance tracks of last year and I welcome all well thought out remixes with open arms and so when Disco Pusher sent me their remix collection, I was a very happy bunny.New York’s Disco Pusher are more than just a pair of DJ’s with synthesizer and [...]

After Beastie Boys member Adam ‘MCA’ Yauch recently revealed he was diagnosed with cancer the All Points West concert had to find a replacement and Jay-Z took the offer.Coldplay’s Chris Martin and Jay-Z paid fitting tribute to the man.We wish Adam and his family a full recovery and hopefully another record when the dust settles.Chris [...]

Paul Banks Is Julian Plenti…Is Skyscraper
I’ve been a massive fan of Interpol since their debut album Turn On The Bright Lights (2001). Songs such as PDA, Roland, or Not Even Jail (this one being on follow-up Antics) never fail to move me. I think it’s partly due to guitarist Daniel Kessler’s talent for composition as well as Paul Bank’s tantalizing [...]

The Kitsuné Effect
Uplifting is the first word that I associated when I first heard Delphic on the radio last night.It was great driving around Central London with the volume turned up just below breaking point and the front windows down.I love this single – it progresses perfectly into an electro-indie single with quick paced but gentle vocals [...]
