Basically a way for me to post all the fun, interesting, unique, hot new music from around the globe with the masses.

Natalia Kills - Wonderland
Natalia Kills debut album Perfectionist sounds amazing! I got the chance to hear the album sampler last month and I was left thoroughly impressed. Natalia has strong pop sensibilities and knows how to write a great song. The video for Wonderland looks so high budget and tells an engaging story of conflict in a sort of fairy tale realm gone awry.

Tove Styrke - High and Low (Official Video)
What is it about the Swedes that allows them to produce some of the world's best pop music? Max Martin, Ace of Base, ABBA, Robyn, Miike Snow... the list goes on. Tove Styrke was a contestant on Swedish Idol and her self-titled debut album came out late last year. This version of her single High and Low contains excellent new production and the video is really appealing.

Britney Spears - Till The World Ends
Last week I went into a shop to pick up a copy of Britney's latest album Femme Fatale. I was so pumped to have that CD in my hand and felt as if I had been put into a time machine and sent 10-12 years in the past. I put the disc in the car player and was dancing in my seat all the way through early evening traffic. Femme Fatale is a real pop triumph that is filled with the infectious tracks that have made Spears an international icon. This era has at times appeared to be on shaky ground, but I can say for certain that I will remain a loyal listener. The video for TTWE harkens back to the video for 2001's I'm A Slave 4 U.

Kelly Rowland feat. Lil' Wayne - Motivation
Oh Ms. Kelly, you just seem to be perpetually on the verge these days. Close but no cigar! She was poised to be queen of the dance floor courtesy of When Love Takes Over and Commander, but subsequent single releases have failed to catch the public's attention. Let's turn now to Motivation. This video and tune are Sexy (yes, with a capital "S"). Here's hoping that it gathers steam and we get an album release sooner rather than later from Rowland.
Sirens - Good Enough (UK)
British girl group Sirens have been around the pop scene for a decade now, but have only had marginal success. It's a real shame that they haven't gotten more exposure, because a song like Good Enough is sublime perfection.

Nik & Jay - Mod Solnedgangen (DEN)
Nik & Jay's brand of Danish hip-hop has enticed my ears for the past two years. Mod Solnedgangen (Towards the Sunset) is their latest hit in the land of Troll dolls, but it appears the video was shot somewhere with more temperate weather whilst they were fully clothed.
