NIALL STOKES HOT PRESS Adrian Duffy And The Mayo Brothers n
Someone Like You (SR Records)
I’m a sucker for sweet harmonies – and an even bigger one for steel guitar well- played. These elements are combined superbly by London-Irish outfit, Adrian Duffy And The Mayo Brothers. Someone Like You is gorgeously radio-friendly. The guys at Radio 2 should be licking their lips: this is a big, feel-good country hit for them.
SEAN GRIFFITHS MIXMAG Tristesse Contemporaine n
Fire (Record Makers)
Tristesse Contemporaine are a three-piece who came together in Paris and like the city that spawned it, their new album is a suitably suave affair. Released on Record Makers, home to Kavinsky and Sébastien Telier, this is sophisticated synth-pop of the highest order.
SCOTT EVERY POP LOVIN’ TARTS Noah n
Keep On Moving (Icon Worldwide Music)
New single Keep On Movin’ from Noah is an excellent example of dance music at its best. Showcasing some great builds, it really is one of those feel-good tracks. With classic synth lines and the famous four to the floor beat, this track really is destined for clubs.

Made From Cool is a major new international campaign for Jack & Jones for their Premium clothes range. The task was to focus on crafts- manship and quality, but tell the story in an eye-opening way. Christopher Walken plays the role of a tailor with supernatural powers who sews designer clothes. The campaign is running in 65 countries. Simon Ballard, licensing and digital media manager, Mute Song said
of the sync: “Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds have never been very enthu- siastic about advertisers using their music, but on this occasion very early on it was apparent that this was going to be a fantastic campaign and everyone was keen to make things work. We saw the films early in the process and they were beautifully shot, Christopher Walken was ter- rific and We Real Cool really combined perfectly with the picture.” Peter Raeburn, founder and creative director of Soundtree Music
said: “We needed to find something that complemented Christopher Walken’s amazing performance. Nick Cave’s We Real Cool screamed at the picture and demanded to be united with this fantastic work, which we are extremely proud of.”
