  • The tracks you know you want when they come out...
    • Maddonna: American Life (MaverickMinimal blips & squelches don't quite compensate for the directionless rap tirade in this latest incarnation. But who cares what people think when you've got a brand new mini?
    • PlummetDamaged (SeriousTrance revisited with new mixes and more drop down's than Jordan's pants, DJ X & Nikki show this track has a long life ahead of it.
    • BlurOut Of Time (FoodMarking the subtle return of a less angry version of Britpop's prime movers less one. Growing up can be painful but good.
    Those tunes you love but still don't know what they are!...
    • Room 5 ft. Oliver Cheatham: Make Luv (PositivaThe sweet smell of success is deservedly so for this lot, even if the Lynx scent isn't your thing.
    • 50 CentIn Da Club (ShadyKnown to his peers as "Small Change", 50 Cent makes up the full shilling with the Beyonce Knowles vocal version of this stunning single.
    • David Gray: Be Mine (East WestA deeper, darker vibe than this album's predecessor, but equally moving and inspirational.

    This week's Featured Tag Chart Track
    Planet Funk "Who Said" (Illustrious) - release date: 14 April 03
    "Chasing The Sun" came into our lives a few summers ago and blissed out all who subsequently heard it on any of the plethora of chill out compilations around. So to some it was a surprise to hear this pop-punk rant of a track from Alex Neri and his italian chill-mongers. "Who Said" is a blistering crossover smash that is ready to blow open the genre barriers. Dan Black (Par-T-One) provides the brash vocals for this anti-slave wage offering, reminiscent of the rhythmic aggression of the likes of Audio Bullys, and looks certain to put Planet Funk in good stead of their forthcoming album' Non Zero Sumness'  reaching the status of "Essential Album to Have 2003".  Here's hoping Gordon Brown buys a copy.

     
    Single Of The Week:
    Yeah Yeah Yeahs "Date With The Night" (Polydor) - The hype around the signing of this NYC trio is justified
     
    Album Of The Week:
    Run DMC "Greatest Hits" (Arista) - 25 years of groundbreaking music that reminds us that Rap used to be fun
     
    Plug Of The Week:
    Unknown "Hobohumpinslobogray" (White Label) - bastard pop blend of Macy & Whale; no comment
     
    How's my spelling?
