New on the Shelves/Online.... from the past two Fridays {Easter Lead In}

Two weeks of new music, one big BLOG entry:

Avicii by Avicii - Basically it's a remix album of Avicii songs, remixed by you guessed it Avicii. Sounds interesting? Maybe just a marketing ploy to keep one of the biggest dance albums of 2013 at top of mind pre Easter.

Aloe Blacc - This album came out in 2013 overseas so no doubt many Australian's had heard this material prior to it's release a couple of Friday's ago. It features the Aloe Blacc version of Avicii's "Wake Me Up". A good listen from my memory, I had heard this a while back.

Now onto yesterday's releases in the stores and online:

Architecture in Helsinki release their 5th studio album and it feels like this has been coming for a while. I recently instantly feel in love with "I Might Survive" and "Into the Future" & "Dream a Little Crazy" have been past radio favourites. So it's with no doubt in my mind that Now + 4EVA will keep the indie kids happy who have followed Architecture in Helsinki's indie career. Great to see such great new pop music from our very own shores, well done Architecture in Helsinki.

More local music and this time from Canberra. The Aston Shuffle have released their second full length album and with teaser singles dropping every few months and a successful Friday radio show on JJJ, "Photographs" is more like a best of the last 12 months for The Aston Shuffle. Most of the tracks are from 2013 but this record will surely set dance floors alight as they tour across the nation in support of this record.

Small mentions to the Kaiser Chiefs and Band of Skulls who also dropped new records yesterday.

Finally Mr Little Jeans also released a long awaited release "Pocketknife" yesterday, I will be back with more Friday releases soon and I am so this entry has been long awaited but with Easter round the corner and life ramping up, I have had to delay my love of music.

But this weekend I guarantee a return to blogging.
