What a nice list!

I will check the "unknown" names, because I think we have similar tastes in music.

Did you bought Kate Bush "The Sensual World" LP. There's a limited edition released by "Audio Fidelity". You can order it from ebay or from the Audio Fidelity site. A nice collector's item for Kate Bush-fans. Also "Hounds of Love" was re-released by Audio Fidelity.

I also bought the Kate Bush Japan mini-lp's.

by **CrazyCrazy** » Sun Jan 29, 2012 3:19 pm

Great list Kev!

That 'The Do' woman looks like Lana!!!

THE 'TOP 50 ALBUMS OF 2011' IS COMING!

>>>>> BUBBLING UNDER <<<<<

53. Little Dragon - Ritual Union
(Electronic / Sweden)

Favourite Tracks:
"Nightlight" and "Please Turn".

52. Amy Winehouse - Lioness: Hidden Treasures
(Soul / UK)

Favourite Tracks:
"Tears Dry" and "Valerie ('68 Version)".

51. Laura Marling - A Creature I Didn't Know
(Folk / UK)

Favourite Tracks:
"Night After Night" and "The Beast".

by **CrazyCrazy** » Sun Jan 29, 2012 10:54 pm

Ooooh looking forward!!

Website · by **LonelyDreamer** » Mon Jan 30, 2012 12:49 pm

I think you gonna love this following act, Crazycrazy!!

>>>>> TOP 50 ALBUMS OF 2011 <<<<<

50. Nina Hagen - Volksbeat
(Punk / Germany)

Favourite Tracks:
"Nicht Vergessen" and "Soma Koma".

'Volksbeat' show us a new Nina Hagen, the beloved Mother Of Punk, now singing in German! She's a very christian lady nowadays, so it had some influence on the choices for covers and original songs - just like her previous album, 'Personal Jesus'. Nina's voice is still strong and explosive - which I love -, but I don't think it's one of her best works. We were expecting for something like her 80s and 90s efforts: incisive lyrics, guitars and a fully punk-attitude.

49. Ana Belén - A Los Hombres Que Amé
(Pop / Spain)

Favourite Tracks:
"La Banda" and "Las Cuatro Y Diez".

'A Los Hombres Que Amé" is an interesting tribute album, which features some of the biggest Spanish classics performed by Ana Belén. The highlight is her Spanish/Portuguese cover version of "La Banda" [A Banda], a 1966 Brazilian hit by the legendary Chico Buarque.

MUSIC SUGGESTION:
Ana Belén - La Banda (A Banda)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un0yA6F4_d0

Woop for Nina, I've not got around to listening to it yet but I love a number of her other albums!! She's amazing!!

Website · by **LonelyDreamer** » Wed Feb 01, 2012 12:31 am

48. Zola Jesus - Conatus
(Psychedelic / USA)

Favourite Tracks:
"Ixode" and "Vessel".

Not really impressed about most of songs, but she has a very interesting style! It's an unusual experience: so relaxing and crazy at the same time.

47. And One - Tanzomat
(Synthpop / Germany)

Favourite Tracks:
"Dancing In The Factory" and "Seven".

Probably the worst album cover of the year, but it has some great synthpop songs. And One sounds much Depeche Mode-alike, so I think many Ukmixers would like them.

MUSIC SUGGESTION:
And One - Dancing In The Factory
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDLOC3fo4wM

This song will make you want to dance!

Website · by **LonelyDreamer** » Thu Feb 02, 2012 12:27 am

46. Kate Havnevik - You
(Alternative / Norway)

Favourite Tracks:
"Disobey" and "Castaway".

This album is a grower. As I said before, "You" sounds like an old Imogen Heap album, and I really like some songs on it.

45. Vanguart - Boa Parte de Mim Vai Embora
(Folk Rock / Brazil)

Favourite Tracks:
"Mi Vida Eres Tu" and "Engole (Arde Mais Que Brasa Em Pele Quente)".

Good alternative Brazilian bands are hard to find... Vanguart is one of them! I like particularly their lyrics - some are really funny!

MUSIC SUGGESTION:
Vanguart - Mi Vida Eres Tu
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlehJ6UpIE8

Website · by **LonelyDreamer** » Fri Feb 03, 2012 12:53 am

44. Kaiser Chiefs - The Future Is Medieval
(Indie Rock / UK)

Favourite Tracks:
"Little Shocks" and "Heard It Break".

'The Future Is Medieval' sounds very good, despite there's nothing really innovative in this album. So, this 'future' is a past thing, as they said, but you can easily enjoy its songs!

43. Gal Costa - Recanto
(MPB / Brazil)

Favourite Tracks:
"Miami Maculelê" (com Caetano Veloso) and "Tudo Dói".

'Recanto' is an experimental work, a collaborative album wrote and produced by Caetano Veloso, with vocals by Gal Costa - one of the most iconic Brazilian voices of all time. Who would expect to listen this 66 years old legend singing by such Björk's 'Vespertine'-alike background? Or a funk (the same genre that M.I.A. used on her song "Bucky Done Gun") track? Or even using autotune?! It's definitely a box of surprises!

MUSIC SUGGESTION:
Gal Costa - Miami Maculelê
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gE24MHsRecs

* EXTRA! - One of her classics ("Eu Sei Que Vou Te Amar")
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4nl8uNXD6Q [Gal Costa and Tom Jobim]

by **Chun** » Fri Feb 03, 2012 12:31 pm

And One!! Some love for German synthpop. If you like them you might like Perfidious Words as well. Try their track Ruined, love it.

by **CrazyCrazy** » Fri Feb 03, 2012 7:20 pm

Not heard the whole album from Kaiser Chiefs although I've heard a few and I enjoyed them, the lead single was really good!!

Gal Costa sounds interesting...
