“Daft Punk & 7 Other Great French House Acts: From Dmitri From Paris To Justice”
With all the fanfare surrounding their comeback smash “Get Lucky” and this week’s release of Random Access Memories, it’s easy to forget that French house ambassadors Daft Punk have been around for nearly two decades.

“Disclosure: brothers rebooting dance”
One listened to singer-songwriters, the other was 'super-indie', but changes in dancefloor demographics are opening up a world of possibilities for Redhill's finest
You could easily spend an afternoon with Guy and Howard, the production duo who make up Disclosure, without realising they share a surname. There's no Gallagher-esque quibbling rivalry, nor does one brother take obvious charge. It's only when 19-year-old Howard pops off to re-park the car and then disappears for half an hour that 22-year-old Guy shouts down the phone like only a blood relative could. "We're in the canteen, where I said we would be. It's a canteen, Howard; there's loads of tables and chairs, people eating. It looks like a canteen."

“Rihanna To Release “Right Now” With David Guetta As Her Next Single”
Rihanna is ready for “Right Now” right now (sigh): The ratchet pop princess is following up the release of the now-ubiquitous ballad “Stay” and the grim “Pour It Up” with that song as her new single, and it’s probably a smart move. “Right Now” is a reasonably conventional dance-pop banger that aligns with the current ...

“Foals on Holy Fire: 'We were inspired by voodoo'”
In an attempt to find a new, primal sound for their latest album, Foals went to the butcher and bought cow and sheep bones to use for percussion. Did it get the creative juices flowing?
The last time Foals spoke in depth to the Guardian it was a revealing interview to say the least. In between tales of teenage problems with authority, wild mood swings and the pressures of fame, singer Yannis Philippakis opened up about family therapy, his difficulties dealing with an absent father and his fear of repeating this same cycle of abandonment. In an almost Morrissey-esque act of rockstar subversion he discussed his inability to get "a proper girlfriend" and ended things by saying that all he really wanted was to settle down, have kids and start gardening.

“David Guetta, Ne-Yo & Akon’s “Play Hard” Video: Watch The Weird, Weird Clip”
Look: A new video from David Guetta, Ne-Yo and Akon isn’t something any of us are going to get particularly excited about, especially in 2013, and their single together — “Play Hard” (the emphasis is firmly there, not so much on the working hard part) — is exactly the type of pedestrian club-pop you’d expect, the effective sampling of ...
