Anyway, that little rant aside, just click here. It's all very self explanitary. It feels like it's been a long time waiting for this album to come to come out, and I'm still waiting. Let this prime example of bubblegum pop tide you over.
Yes, her again! Giving away free tracks in the run up to an album's release seems to be fast becoming an industry standard these days. The idea (from my point of view) being that it's better to have some of your music in a fan's music folder/on their phone then to just have it in the shops. Once it's in your music folder, you can listen to it as much or as little as you like but that familiarity with the artist is there and is often accompanied by the need to aquire more, plus you're obviously much more likely to pay attention to news of an artist if you've already got some of their music, as opposed to the millions of bands you've never heard of but who's names you're inunadated with and instantly disregard on a daily basis.

From Charli herself: So, I did a girl version... now here's the boy version... some of my favorite songs from my favorite male artists... bros before hoes this time.... Tracklisting: Lil Wayne - A Milli Madeon - Icarus Leave Britney Alone Justice vs. Simian - We Are Your Friends Bleeding Knees Club - Bad Guys David Bowie - Sound and Vision Active Child - Playing House (feat. How to Dress Well) Ritualz - Ghetto Ass Witch (feat. Gvcci Hvcci) Gabriel Bruce - Sleep Paralysis Ying Yang Twins - The Whisper Song The Owls Are Not What They Seem With an abundance of emotive dark pop songs, and backed by a growing army of top producers and worldwide fans, Charli is not like your run-of-the-mill musician. Earlier this summer, Charli released ‘Stay Away’. Co-written and produced by Ariel Rechtshaid (Glasser, Diplo), it is as knock-you-to-the-floor as first introductions come. A massive anthem that combines all the majestic bluster of the 80s with distinct post-millennial production, it’s an epic and heart-wrenching addition to pop’s cannon about “unrequited love and being tainted by someone so you can’t be around them any more” Cyndi Lauper* - Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Britney Spears - Piece of Me Fleetwood Mac - Little Lies Siouxsie and The Banshees - Hong Kong Garden Mariah Carey - Like That Björk - There's More to Life Than This Spice Girls - Say You'll Be There Azealia Banks - Fuck Up the Fun Blondie - Atomic Hole - Jennifer's Body Kate Bush - Hounds of Love _I first heard Charli's music early last year when Sohodolls front woman and now super producer Maya von Doll booked her to play one of her 'Shut Your Pretty Mouth' nights in Soho. I knew if Maya was tipping her then she must be good. I checked her out and yeah, she's pretty damn cool. For Valentine's Day, (and today only!) she's uploaded a track to SoundCloud and is letting everyone have it as a FREE download, for today only. (Note: Although that link has long since expired, I found that someone else has uploaded it to SoundCloud. You can only stream it but at least you can hear it.) |
Making your music folder better, one song at a time.
_Pretty much everyday I seem to find some amazing exclusive tracks that
some awesome artists are giving away for free as a special one off
promotion. Today, it occured to me that instead of just downloading
them, maybe reposting them on facebook if they're special enough/someone I know and
then moving on, I should start a little music blog on here. Even if it
doesn't last forever, it's still a free song for you each day that it
does! I'd say the character of this blog is mostly electropop and singer/songwriter but I've got plans for mathcore, post-rock and glitch-hop. A lot of these tracks have a download limit of 100 so get in there on the quick. I'd also point out that a lot of the songs will need renaming once you've downloaded them so I'd do them one at a time. Archives
