I wanted to do a Five For Friday this week but found myself unable to do one, so to make up here's six tracks I've been listening to the most
6. Depeche Mode- Enjoy The Silence (Mike Shinoda Remix): Take Depeche Mode's classic track and add Linkin Park's signature style to it and the result is this. Mike Shinoda makes Enjoy The Silence sound like Linkin Park's track Crawling. While the original version is a favourite of mine I enjoy the louder guitars in this remix.
5. Akurat - Lubie Mowic Z Toba: This Reggae/Ska/Punk band have some great energetic tracks, but this track is a bit mellower from this Polish group, the repetative guitar note really lulls you until the brass kicks in.
4. MOVITS!-Äppelknyckarjazz: I love this mix of swing and hip-hop, not only does it make swing music sound a bit more fast paced, it's also interesting to hear Hip Hop done over something other than processed beats.
3. After School- Ah!: Dubbed Korea's answer to Pussycat Dolls this RnB girl group each of the five members (though it has since become six members) get a vocal part in this song each one having a distinctive sound, not just relying on the lead vocalist Park Kahi to carry the song.
2. BoA Featuring Sean Garrett- I Did It For Love: BoA is quite the multitalented RnB artist, not only does she have albums out in her native Korean language but she has also produced Japanese albums and this track is from her debut English album, the chorus is quite infectious and her voice seems to bounce along to the beat.
1. Aya Kamiki- A Constellation: A favourite of mine from her first mini album Constellations which can be found on last.fm (I provided the link for it in a previous Five For Fridays blog), it reminds me of Natccu's Kagen No Tuki in its progression from quite a slow mellow track to a soft rock melody.
