Like last year, I'm writing a couple of posts. Some of these are actually from late last year because we're only just in January,  lol.

 

Britney Spears- Swimming in the Stars

This is Swimming in the Stars, a new song by American singer Britney Spears. It was released in early December and is from Britney's new album Glory (Deluxe Vinyl), out now. It's the deluxe version of her 2016 album Glory.

Swimming in the Stars is a laid-back pop, dancey song. This is the official visualiser (or visualizer). 




Britney + Backstreet Boys- Matches

Two ultimate 90s act came together when Britney teamed up with American boyband Backstreet Boys for the song Matches! (Nostalgia!!). It's light, fun pop.

It's cool to see them work together.  :) This is the audio.

Gen Neo- HOLD BACK

Now for some C-pop! This is HOLD BACK, the new song from Singaporean singer Gen Neo. It's from his 1st mini album AD ASTRA, which came out on 29th December.

The video for HOLD BACK premiered on New Year's Eve (31st December).

ZAYN- Vibez

Here is the new one from British singer Zayn (full name Zayn Malik), former member of One Direction turned solo singer. It was released on 8th January and is from his brand-new album Nobody Is Listening, which came out today.

The song has chilled out "vibez" which we could all do with! You can put your headphones on to listen in 360 Reality Audio (if you have it of course, which I don't!).

Lana Del Rey- Chemtrails Over The Country Club

Finally, here is Chemtrails Over The Country Club, the new single by American singer Lana Del Rey. It was released on 11th January and is from her upcoming 7th studio album of the same name. The album is due out on 19th March. 

Chemtrails Over The Country Club has Lana's usual dreamy style. The video is a bit strange (it features Lana and her friends going through a transformation), but interesting!

 


Hope you liked the post. :) Stay tuned for another one sharing more new music. What are your current favourite new releases?

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
