Okay, if this is the most confusing artist name we've seen all year, but we'll try and simplify things for you. US DJ Armand Van Helden is one of the most successful DJs on the planet. Canadian DJ A-Trak has just visited Aussie shores where he played at Parklife. Together, the boys have come together to form a duo called Duck Sauce. What's Duck Sauce all about? According to the OFFICIAL MYSPACE, "Duck Sauce is Armand Van Helden and A-Trak making house music and eating Chinese food. Who's hungry? Quack quack." aNYway is the lead single from these guys and the video is retro personified - groovy threads, jivin' dance moves and plenty of funk. Check it out below!

'The Ga' is back bigger and better than ever. For the re-release of Lady Gaga's debut album The Fame, she has basically created a whole new record. Eight new tracks including the new single Bad Romance, Gaga is certainly defying the rules of the music industry with her new approach to releasing music. The Fame Monster is the title of the new album and it is scheduled to hit stores on the 23rd of November. The Video for Bad Romance has been released overnight and if you are a fan of The Ga, you will love this video. I don't think it is worth trying to describe it, it's just nuts and i love it. Her best video yet, check it out below as well as some awesome screen shots from the video.

Shakira

Shakira Did It Again! For her second single from her new album, the Colombian goddess has got the internets talking with her sexy new clip. Did It Again is written, produced by Pharell Williams and takes a more familiar Shakira sound than the previous single She Wolf. The music video for this track is fantastic, a complex chorography scene with a bed the highlight. Make sure you don't look away at 2:29 , because it's really cool.

Flight of the Conchords

Flight of the Conchords is a New Zealand comedy duo composed of Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement. Billing themselves as "Formerly New Zealand's fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo", the group uses a combination of witty observation, characterisation and acoustic guitar music. Simply they are fricken hilarious. The boys are back with their second studio album, which basically comprises of songs from their TV show reworked. The first single, Hurt Feelings, of the new album, I Told You I Was Freaky, is another masterpiece. Check out Hurt Feelings(TV version) and my favorite track from their first album below.

Har Mar Superstar

Sean Matthew Tillmann, better known by his stage names of Har Mar Superstar and Sean Na Na, is an American singer with a bit of an edge. Releasing his first record in 2000 Har Mar has continued to keep his unique style while enjoying limited success in the alternative side of the music industry. Dark Touches is the latest studio album from Har Mar, which features his first single from the album, Tall Boy. Tall Boy feels like something we've seen and heard before, but just because it's not very original doesn't mean it's not good. It's damn good! Check it out below.

Norwegen electronic duo Royksopp have always been known for their somewhat different music videos. The third single of their latest album, Junior, is called This Must Be It. I could go into a lengthy descripion of the video but I think it is best if you just watch it.

Black Eyed Peas

I use to be a massive Black Eyed Peas fan back in the late 90's and even though my enjoyment in their music has wained over the years, It's hard not to call these guys trendsetters. The first singles of their latest album The E.N.D., Boom Boom Pow and I've Gotta Feeling, have spent so many weeks at No.1 this year that it is ridiculous. The wave of success look set to continue with the third single of the album, Meet Me Halfway already Top 10 in most countries around the world. This is one of the better tracks of their new album along with the infectious Imma Be. The Pea's have also made a interesting clip to go with their new single, Check it out below.

British electro duo La Roux who are touring the country at the moment are back with their 4th single I'm Not Your Toy. This track doesn't reach the heights of In For the kill or Quicksand, but it should still keep fans happy with the same iconic sound. The video for I'm Not Your Toy is interesting, but nothing that special. Make up your own mind and check it out below.

Tiesto
I Will Be Here

Tiesto is a Dutch Dance Veteran, try saying that quickly three times,who began taking over the european dance scene in the early ninties. I have always respected Tiesto, but I wouldn't say I was a fan, until now. For his new album the Dutch Dance Veteran has teamed up with Sneaky Sound System who feature on his first single, I Will Be Here. This track stays on track of Tiesto's progressive trance style, but it's sooo better than the average because Miss Connie Mitchell is singing! Check out the song and very cool vid below!

Super Junior-M

No, it's not what you expected! I bet you were thinking oh it's another post about K-pop. Well your wrong! Well sort of..... I've talked about Super Junior in the past, but just to catch you up the are the biggest Boy Band in the world with 13 members originating from South Korea. To cut a long story short, the record company behind the group decided that since 7 of the members spoke Chinese they would create a Sub-group for the Chinese market called Super Junior-M. They have just released a new Mini-Album and the first single is called Super Girl. Yes it is cheesey pop, like most of the stuff I post on this site, but it is sooo good. Even if you don't understand Mandarin like me, you can still get into it! Check out the video below!

K-pop fans! See if you can pick out the cameo in the video!

4minute
4minute
The World of 'Western'(American, European and Australian) music has been somewhat been passing me by of late, because I have been immersed in to Korean music scene. For the very few of you who read andwho like K-pop below are three new-ish groups you should be listening to!

The first one, is a five-member girl group called 4minute. The debuted with a song back in late June called Hot Issue, which was a big success for the group. 4minute have now made a mini album which was released last week titled Muzik. Muzik is also the new single of the album, with it's Hot video and explosive sales, Muzik has made 4minute a group to watch. Check out the video below!

The second is a new product of the famous label, SMEntertainment home of artists like BoA, Super Junior and Girls Generation. Another five member girl group, they are called F(x). Only debuting last week they are generating big buzz with their single Lachata. Check out the very catchy video and song below!


Kara

Third is actually another girl group( they are all the rage at the moment) named Kara. They have been around for a little while and have quite a following already gaining a couple No. 1 hits. Their new single of their latest album is called Mister and it is causing a viral storm at the moment because of the sexy chorography that goes with the song. Known as the 'Butt dance', its got Korea going mad for the new dance move. Check out the girls performing Mister live below!

A dose of K-Pop

August 13th 2009 07:59

Anyone who reads this site every so often would know that I have a addiction to K-Pop or Korean Pop Music. The one thing I mainly like about korean pop music is that even though it is cheesy, the music always has a high production value and a Dance or Disco edge. Even though myself and probably you, understand very little of Korean, the music is still really good. Korea knows how to do Pop well! Below are 3 of the biggest Korean artist's at the moment and a little blurb about them. Check them out!

Girls Generation
Girls Generation


The first one is Girls Generation. We featured them at the start of the year with their hit song Gee, which broke so many records and sold a lot of copies! They have recently released a new mini album titled Sowoneul Malhaebwa (Genie) which translates into Tell Me Your Wish (Genie), and it has already gone No.1 on every chart possible. Tell Me Your Wish (Genie) is also the title of the lead single. Have a look at the video for it below and check out you will have it stuck in your head in no time.


Bada
Bada

The second artist is Bada. Bada is a solo female singer who used to be apart of a very successful girl group in the late ninties called S.E.S. From my view she is a bit like the Korean Beyonce, though there are obviously many differences. Bada has just released a new single from new album which is released this week. The single is called Mad and has a bit of a disco vibe. It's my new favourite song so check out the video below.


Brown Eyed Girls
Brown Eyed Girls

The third one is another girl group called Brown Eyed Girls. They have caused a lot of controversy lately in Korea because of their new video for their single Abracadabra. BEG have changed their image a fair bit from a cutesy look to a more mature and sexy style and it has got some of the traditionalist talking. Their new album is selling a lot of copies and their single Abracadabra is Hottt!!!! Check out the raunchy video below!

She is possibly one of the coolest Australian singer/songwriters around and I simply love Her. Sarah Blasko has taken the last year to write and record her new album and she has simply made some very cool music. The first single of her upcoming album is called 'All I Want' and the video is pretty cool. Check it out below.
