It is once again
ages since we at Dolores Delargo Towers have explored the newer music that is out there in the real world - so let's get to it, and see what a maelstrom of madness has caught our ears of late...
Let us begin with something
truly trashy.
Richard Simmons is "an American fitness personality and actor who promotes weight-loss programs, prominently through his
Sweatin' to the Oldies line of aerobics videos and is known for his eccentric, outgoing and frequently flamboyant personality". Apparently. Here's his new single
Hair Do - make of it what you will!
The marvellous
Agnetha Faltskog of Abba fame's latest is rather catchy little number (thanks,
Henry!):
Another act that has been around for decades (admittedly nowhere near as long as Miss Faltskog),
Belle and Sebastian are back with a sinister video for their new single:
I have a sort of love-hate thing going on with Miss
Lana Del Rey. There is something about those strained self-consciously trippy vocals that grates after a little while. However, I must admit to having grown to like the Cedric Gervais (who?) remix of her recent single:
It appears that the return of Nile Rogers (with Daft Punk) this summer did indeed make it OK to produce unashamedly Disco music again. Like this one by
Krystal Klear:
Another new release from those peerless pop gods
Pet Shop Boys has arrived, this time featuring a guest rap (unfortunately) from clubbers' fave of two years ago
Example. Neil wants us to come around and stay for the weekend, and who are we to say no?
Here's a rather fab discovery - a German singer who goes by the name of
MarieMarie, and this rather catchy choon:
It seems like
only yesterday we had a sexy video to drool over featuring our favourite houseboys
Kazaky, and here is another one! As they quite rightly observe,
It Doesn't Matter:
Storming into the Russian fascist "anti-gay backlash" battle with all guns blazing in defence of the gayers, the lovely girls from
Xelle have created a catchy, angry stomper of a gay rights anthem that should be heard all the way to the Kremlin!
Song of the moment (and far better than Our Princess's recent official release
Skirt, which sounds like something a nonentity like Rita Ora might record) is
Kylie Minogue's faboo collaboration with Italian superstar
Laura Pausini -
Limpido. [Let's hope this splendid track brings her some joy and success after her
recent split from the gorgous Andres Velencoso]...
And finally (because we have to end somewhere!), thanks again to the fine folks who inhabit
Barbarella's Galaxy, it's the oddest video of them all -
Breach and their/his incredibly contagious
Jack!
As ever, enjoy - and let me know your thoughts...
