Just Jack is back!!! His first album ‘Overtones’ has been one of my absolute favorites over the past two years. I am happy to find that Just Jack is just as good still with his new single ‘Doctor Doctor’ off the new album 'All Night Cinema'

Here are my two favorite songs from the first album, ‘Writer’s Block’ and ‘Mourning Morning.’

Say hello to the bestest music video of 2009 so far (according to Arab Aquarius :). The violins of the song ‘Hard Times’ by Patrick Wolf have been stuck in my head for weeks, and the music video by director Ace Norton only made things better. No room for mediocrity, this is the shit!
Basement Jaxx released the music video for their new single ‘Raindrops'. It is directed by Jess Holzworth and features psychedelic photography, body paint and tribe dancing. A feast for the eyes! enjoy it below.
