Music Complete is the tenth studio album by the English rock band New Order. It was released on 25 September 2015 by Mute Records, their first album on the label. The album features guest vocals from Elly Jackson of La Roux, Iggy Pop and Brandon Flowers.

There's no denying Australian heavy rock trio Wolfmother has been raised on rock – specifically, raised on '70s rock. Problem is, from all appearances on their eponymous debut, they made their journey into the past via the twin gateway drugs of the White Stripes and Queens of the Stone Age, and once they dug back to the original Zeppelin and Sabbath texts (stopping along the way for some Soundgarden discs and maybe, for lyrical inspiration, Yes and Rush), they indulged so much it screwed with their sense of aesthetics.

"Trombipulation" is the 9th album by the funk band Parliament. It was released by Casablanca Records. It was the last album of original material produced by the group for 38 years until Medicaid Fraud Dogg in 2018. Unlike previous Parliament albums, George Clinton did not serve as sole producer of the album, as other P-Funk figures assisted in producing individual tracks. Bassist Bootsy Collins emerged as the principal musician on this album, playing virtually all of the instruments on a number of tracks. The track "Let's Play House" was sampled by the Hip-Hop group Digital Underground for their single "The Humpty Dance". While Trombipulation wasn't as commercially successful as previous Parliament albums, its first single, "Agony of DeFeet" peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts.

Scissor Sisters is the debut studio album by American 5-piece band Scissor Sisters, first released in 2004. It was released by Polydor in the UK.

Since its release it has gone 9× Platinum in the UK, selling over 2,100,000 copies in the country alone. In Ireland it has been certified 5× Platinum. The album was not as successful in their native USA, peaking at #102 on the Billboard 200. The album has sold 3,300,000 copies worldwide, and is listed as one of 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die in the book of the same name, edited by Robert Dimery. The album won Best International Album at the 2005 BRIT Awards.

In September 2004 Natasha Bedingfield debuted smashingly in the United Kingdom. Her first record, Unwritten, went to number one almost immediately and the glowing response established her as an instant pop star. Her ascent mirrored the sudden popularity of brother Daniel Bedingfield in 2001, when his bedroom production "Gotta Get Through This" rocketed similarly up the charts. For Natasha, it's "Single" and the near-perfect "These Words (I Love You, I Love You)" – tracks that merge the rhythms and flavors of hip-hop and R&B with unique melodies and Bedingfield's vocal confidence – "Single," for example, suggests Kelly Clarkson's 2003 single "Miss Independent."

"If the voice don't say it, the guitar will play it," raps Saffron on "Pork-U-Pine," the third track on Jeff Beck's minimally titled Jeff. And he does. Beck teams with producer Andy Wright, the man responsible for his more complete immersion into electronic backdrops on his last outing, You Had It Coming. This time the transition is complete. Beck used electronica first on Who Else!, moved a little more into the fire on You Had It Coming, and here merges his full-on Beck-Ola guitar heaviness with the sounds of contemporary spazz-out big beats and noise.

One of the initial works in the ambient house canon, Chill Out is the practically beatless soundtrack to a late-night journey along the Gulf Coast, and the track titles tell much of the story: "Six Hours to Louisiana, Black Coffee Going Cold," "3AM Somewhere Out of Beaumont," "Elvis on the Radio, Steel Guitar in My Soul." Recorded live by Drummond and Cauty (with much unintended help from sample victims Elvis Presley, Fleetwood Mac, and the throat singers of Tüva), Chill Out consists largely of fragmented, heavily reverbed steel guitar, environmental sounds (birds, trains), occasional synth, and an angelic vocal chorus repeating the KLF's own "Justified and Ancient" theme. Throughout, Drummond and Cauty display an instinctive talent for wallpaper music that's truly diverting, making Chill Out one of the essential ambient albums.

Music is shaped by the time and place it’s created… And in the 80s changes in politics, technology and culture came together to produce an explosion of new sounds that have come to define a generation. The importance and continued popularity of the 80s can’t be underestimated, from the pioneering producers of synthesised music like The Human League, Gary Numan and Giorgio Moroder to the immortal David Bowie. In addition, there are the brilliant electronic pop sounds of Soft Cell, Yazoo, Tears For Fears, Duran Duran, Pet Shop Boys, Boy George and Visage… Play just one of these epoch defining tracks and you can feel the electricity of the era. And then there are the sounds which are uniquely British; from The Cure, New Order, Dream Academy and Black to Spandau Ballet and Bryan Ferry. These bands/artists perfectly summarise the mood of 80s Britain. Chilled Electronic 80s brings to life an alternative side of the decade; One of equal wonder to the dance floor electro classics but also of chilled cool. Over 3CDs, these classic laid back tracks chart the birth of modern chill-out, chilled dance and electronic today… So sit back, relax and drift back in time as Ministry of Sound presents… Chilled Electronic 80s.

Record Store Day 2019 release by the NY edit king.. The five singles have been remastered for loud club play, and come in a custom box. Also included are two dye-printed 7-inch slip mats, only available with this release.
Matching slinky boogie with 80s street soul, hedonistic disco delights and jazzy groovers, danceable Afro beat and purple-tinged funk, the boldly diverse range of styles reflects not only Mr. K's well-honed taste but the traditionally multihued make-up of the classic New York City underground club sound.
