Spin That Record - Top Tunes of the Moment

Lots of lovely remixes and pop tracks to be getting along with at the moment. Lets have a run down. Thanks to MuuMuse, Remixes Galore and Mossip for the tips!

MPHO - "Box N Locks" : Santigold-esque pop from hotly tipped Brit newcomer. Great stuff.

Hilary Duff - "Any Other Day (Richard Vission Remix)" : BRILLIANT stuff, the Duff isn't really on anybody's pop radar any more but this mix is fantastic and worth every second of your time, particularly if you think she's shite. In fact her last few remixes have been out of this world.

Medina - "You and I" : Slinky and moody dance tune, the Spencer and Hill remix is excellent too.

La Roux - Bulletproof (Zinc Remix) : Stumbled on this again after hearing it awhile back, much prefer it to the original!

Busta Rhymes - World Go Round feat. Estelle : club banger alert! Fantastic piece of aggressive electro fused hip hop. The video is inspired.

David Guetta - Sexy Bitch feat. Akon : A tad offensive maybe but this song is fire. This album is shaping up to be amazing Mr Guetta!

Dolly Rockers - Gold Digger : Staking a claim for most fun girl group around, this tune is tongue in cheek, catchy and very very good.

Freemasons feat. Sophie Ellis Bextor - "Heartbreak (Make Me A Dancer)" : I've just clicked with this rather epic track, Sophie's voice matches the usual Freemasons production really well.

Madonna - "Celebration (Benny Benassi Mix)" : Love the original obv but this gives a nice dirty house make over.

Simian Mobile Disco - "Cruel Intentions" feat. Beth Ditto : Inspired 90s style dance tune with lovely vocals from Ms Ditto.

Irish Chart Update

I'm going to assume next week will be full of the greatest MJ hits but still interesting to check out the current Irish Top 40, which can be viewed here (top 50 in this case, and yes there are some people who still don't own Just Dance. IN JUNE. I mean really.)

The biggest surprise is Industry getting to number one with "My Baby's Waiting". I had pegged this as too cheesy and old fashioned to take off but apparently :

"a string of daily performances in record shops around the country has generated enough CD sales to take their independent debut release ‘My Baby’s Waiting’ straight to No1."

There you go. Interesting though, to see a pop act slog it out for a top spot, especially this market which is obviously tiny. I'm still not a fan of the song at all but it is nice to see a pop act do well in Ireland home of the "mid 30s and over" radio playlists.

The top 10 is actually quite exciting, having Battlefield by Jordin Sparks and Bulletproof by La Roux enter the bottom reaches (despite In For The Kill peaking at number 13, hugely different to it's long standing top ten run in the UK earlier this year) and the new Cascada single, which whatever you think of them is hugely enjoyable, opening up so strongly. Interesting moves outside of the top ten aswell with Pixie Lott climbing to number 13. I still think its so funn how a song can top the UK charts and only hit the mid teens here.

This week feels a bit more interesting then recent ones on the chart where you would see the same top 5 songs unmoved for what felt like an age. Of course this time next week should be interesting. Industry will struggle to keep that lead of a second week I'd imagine and given the small size of sales needed to get a hit song here, I wouldn't be shocked if we had a Michael Jackson number one along with several top ten entries.
