So I have had another request, Nim Eloi is his name. He is a Puerto Rican pop singer that has a very similar sound and feel to Eirik (Somebody I have mentioned before) he is also 17 like Eirik... MAYBE HE IS EIRIK IS DISGUISE!
Again I have ventured out of my comfort zone here, gone out of 'my music circle' I won't lie, I'm not really a fan of this kind of music (as I have mentioned before).Anyway about Nim, this guy does have some real talent! He is Puerto Rico's answer to Justin Bieber, lyrics about love and girls that are put across by a very versatile voice. From the video he has provided me I can see that he is a very good singer, and if you like the whole lovey-dovey side of music you will certainly love this guy..
Looking at the statistics of his YouTube account I can see he is a very popular boy, with a lot of fans and praise in the comments section, in fact on the video I will attach to this post every single comment says 'love this song!' and like I have mentioned several times he is very talented, so it is hard not to like if you are a fan of pop music.
Give it a listen....
Let me know what you think...

Eirik Gjendemsjø
Well I told you I'd cover a wide range of music! and here is some pop.
Somebody requested I do a post on this guy as He said Eirik has "one of the greatest voices [he has] ever heard" so I decided to listen and read up on Eirik.
I found out that Eirik is only 17 now and that he finished in third place on Norway's equivalent of "Britain's got Talent" aged just 13, but surprisingly that isn't Eirik's greatest achievement, he has sung with the likes of "Andrea Bocelli", "Morten Harket"(Formerly lead singer of A-Ha)and Diana Ross!he sang with all those people before he reached 15.
He has released 2 songs they are called "The Greatest" and "Hello" which are both accessible on both Youtube and Spotify. He can sing rather well for his age, and is like a Norwegian Justin Bieber so if that is your scene you might like this guy. I'm not a fan of his latest song "Hello" yes his vocals are good but the beat he is singing over just doesn't go with the song however, his first song "The Greatest" is pretty good, chilled out and he is singing over a piano tune which his voice suites much better.
Anyway give it a listen and tell me what you think...
Not exactly my cup of tea, but let me know what you think!

Atoms for Peace
This is my last one today, I just has to write about these. Basically, this is a supergroup which consists of Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Thom Yorke from Radiohead on vocals. This is an experimental rock band who actually formed in 2009, but have literally only just released their first album "Amok", they released their first single last year which is called "Default" which is my favourite song by them. I waited so long to hear their album and it has contains some brilliant tracks like "Judge Jury and Executioner" which was their second single.
I found out they are going to be playing a few dates in London later on in the year in London too which I can easily get to. However, when the day of the ticket release came I saw the price was over fifty pound a ticket! and considering their album only has 9 songs on it... I thought no! I will probably regret the decision later as this will probably be the only chance I get to see them,as we all know what Supergroups are like they hardly ever tour,These guys especially seen as though Flea and Thom are pivotal members in their own bands which are also recording new stuff.
Anyway, this is my favourite song...
Do you like it? Let me know.

Sigur Ros!
There is nothing I enjoy more than laying on my bed at uni with a cup of coffee listening to these guys. They are so relaxing, so soothing. They are an Icelandic band which consists of all the conventional instruments like guitars and drum, but they also feature instruments such as a glockenspiel and a toy piano. They are just so cool. If you watch television you may recognise some of their tunes from adverts.
They have 6 albums! and one is due to come out this year, around June time! it is going to be called "Kveikur " (Don't just listen to this one, listen to them all!) My favourite albums however are called "Takk", as it features my favourite song and "Valtari", which is their latest one which they released last year, this is one album that I can sit and listen to forever, tracks on this album I adore are "Ekki Mukk" and "Varúð"
I just find their sounds to be so mellifluous and calming, they often help me sleep! I think you should give them a go!
My favourite track is...
Simply a masterpiece, recognise it? Let me know what you think!

A$AP Rocky
I want to ensure I cover a range of music and this is one rapper I am currently in love with. He has also just released an album which is called "LONG.LIVE.A$AP" (Worth a purchase) I'm not sure why I like this guy, I don't normally like rappers who abide by the conventional stereotypes, singing about HOES AND TING, but this guy is different, and I do not understand why. I am really hoping I get to see this guy at Leeds Festival but! I think he is going to be on at the same time as System of a Down and I aren't missing them for nobody!
On the Album my favourite tracks are "F***ing Problems" and "Wild for the night" his album is riddled with other artists featuring in tracks, he has done songs with people from Florence Welch to Skrillex! There are a couple of tracks however which I aren't keen on but I won't tell you them, I don't want your opinions jaded by me.
Swearing features heavily in pretty much every song so beware! I was listening to "F***ing Problems" yesterday and my mum could hear it and she was saying "Adam, turn that off! I don't like all the swearing" -_- I was like BITCH PLEASE!
This is my favourite though...

Bastille!
So I'd guess I'll dive in with a band straight away rather than bang on about me.
So a band I am absolutely in love with at the minute is Bastille, they've just released an album called "Bad Blood" (Buy it! (I bought it) Download it! (ooo controversial, but lets face it why pay...)(I never download btw))Spotify it! (I'm a premium member, well worth it) whatever just get it) their genre is kinda synthy-pop to Indie-pop. The most popular tracks on the album are "Pompeii", "Bad blood" and "Flaws" If you listen to the radio, you've probably heard them. I love these songs! "Pompeii" is my favourite as well as "Things we lost in the fire"
Funnily enough, it was my sister that got me listening to these. She loves the lead singer "Dan Smith" and has asked me to try convince my mum to let her go to Leeds Festival with me to see them, as my mum ruled this out we are now contemplating buying Evolution Fest tickets where they are also playing. These are one of the most popular bands about today, and their UK tour sold out. So glad I get to see them at Leeds Fest, I'll let you know how they are and who knows, I might see you there!
This is my favourite song!
