Worldwide Picks of Notable New Tracks
This time, we featured "You Know I'm No Good" from Amy Winehouse's second album, "Back To Black," which was recently released. Among the tracks is a buzzworthy song rumored to be sampled by a young British artist scheduled to visit Japan next month. We also highlighted a trio album recorded by jazz pianist Phil Parnell, who has long been active as Matthew Herbert's partner and is scheduled to visit Japan this month. Parnell has since relocated to Denmark.
Phil Parnell Trio / Blue
Ifan Dafydd / No Good
Commodo / Uprising
From the mid-section featuring dubstep and breakbeats with a Middle Eastern flair, we moved on to Brazilian artist Sabrina Malheiros, and the debut work of The Stepkids, who play impressive psychedelic soul and rock, showcasing a diverse range of music.
