Click play below and check out Jungle’s rendition of Mark Ronson’s “Uptown Funk” ft. Bruno Mars from BBC Radio 1 earlier today. Jungle live is one of the more fun shows I can remember seeing in the last year and if you read the blog you know how big of a Mark Ronson fan I am. This version I can dig and I hope they start performing this on tour.
New Music: Mumford & Sons – “Believe”
9 MarIt has arrived! Give a listen below to the lead single off Wilder Times, the upcoming third album from Mumford & Sons due out May 4. The four fellas put the folk aside in favor of a more electric and rock sound which I personally think will help elevate their live shows and well warranted headlining slots. Read more about the new found sound from Billboard, HERE.
Now Playing: Diplo x DJ Snake x MØ – “Lean On”
3 MarDiplo has been on a tear lately – release after release. Since being released yesterday I have had this on repeat, mostly thanks to MØ. Frankly after hearing “”Don’t Wanna Dance” for the first time last year, I was hooked on MØ and I believe she’s going to be a star. Featuring on a track with Diplo and DJ Snake doesn’t hurt too much either! If you haven’t yet listened, click play below.
