	Dirty Pretty Things - Bang Bang You're Dead (Mercury 24/4/06) Rising above controversy & questions about Pete, Carl Barat has formed a new band who are undoubtedly just as cool & just as good. Made up of original smiley drummer Gary, Anthony & Didz from The Cooper Temple Clause (remember them...) this track is a nod to all things wonderfully right with the London music scene. The same titled album 'Bang Bang You're Dead' is out on 8th May. Laura Michelle Kelly - There Was A Time (Angel/EMI 1/5/06) 24 year old Laura is a West-end darling whose last role as the magical Mary Poppins won her the coveted Olivier Award for Best Actress. Leaving the acting world to pursue her passion for music she is now a rising solo star & her debut album 'The Storm Inside' is released on 1st May. Her truly beautiful voice is showcased on this, her debut single 'There Was A Time'. Graham Coxon - You & I (EMI 8/5/05) Always the quiet unassuming artist, Coxon returned with his 3rd album 'Love Travels At Illegal Speeds' this year & this is the 2nd single to be taken from it. Displaying his songwriting talents & musical flair 'You & I' will be a festival crowd-pleaser.


	Death Cab For Cutie - Crooked Teeth (Atlantic 10/4/06) Indie pop quartet Death Cab for Cutie began in 1997 as the solo project of singer/guitarist Ben Gibbard & were an underground success with much critical acclaim but never major sales. Then in 2005 they signed with Atlantic & sold 90,000 in their 1st week with the US release of their label debut 'Plans' & this is the brilliant 1st single to be taken from it. Daniel Powter - Lie To Me (Warners 17/4/06) 'Lie To Me' is the 3rd single to be taken from Powter's successful self-titled debut album & sends him down the funky ballad route. He kicks off a major European tour this May with a London date at Shepherd's Bush Empire on the 14th. Goo Goo Dolls - Better Days (Warners 15/5/06) The Goo Goo's are America's sweethearts when it comes to indie-cheese... who can forget 'Iris'... still brings a tear to the eye. This single is the warm-up track to their 1st studio album in 3 years & is a nice taster of what's to come.



	Divine Comedy - Radio-Activity A song composed by the kings of German electro-pop Kraftwerk covered by Neil Hannon's Divine Comedy. This adds a startling dark aspect to it turning out to be an amazing cover version. The B-52's - Love Shack Remember this one? The ultimate party dancing tune. Taken from their Don Was and Nile Rodgers produced 1989 "Cosmic Thing" album... you know you love it...baby.

Lindstrom - Breakfast In Heaven
Lindstrom is Norwegian super-star writer/producer Hanspeter whose music is a gratifying mix of Kraftwerk and Giorgio Moroder and is often compared to the Italio disco sound of the 1980's. Everything he records is for his own label Feedelity & here is a little gem especially for you.
