Future bits and pieces for Instant Playlist. March 18th, 2011. A couple of enhancements to Instant Playlist coming in the future.

DJ Fresh: Louder - Really Very
http://rlyvry.com/music/review/2011/07/03/dj-fresh-louder-feat-sian-evans
9733;★★★★. Reviewed by John Price. Published on July 3rd, 2011. Definitely my summer anthem, and the remixes are pretty awesome too! You know those summer songs that stick with you even if you forget everything else that happened that summer? I think this is my summer song for this year. It's got all the ingredients loud (obviously), high energy, powerful vocals and fast. Vocals are superb and perfectly match the style of the song, even to the point of overpowering the instruments which is impressive.

Basement Jaxx vs. Metropole Orkest. 9733;★★★☆. Reviewed by John Price. Published on July 15th, 2011. Orchestras really do knock everything up a notch. As we've all been conditioned to know via numerous films and TV shows since childhood, orchestral music of any type hints at a certain level of 'epicness' (and no, not in the stupid internet meaning of the word, rather in the dictionary definition of the word). Did something they called their ' dubstep symphony. With the BBC Philharmonic). They've not just...

Little Dragon: Ritual Union - Really Very
http://rlyvry.com/music/review/2011/07/25/little-dragon-ritual-union
9733;★★★☆. Reviewed by John Price. Published on July 25th, 2011. More synth-pop, but it still manages to be quite good. Is the third album to be released by Swedish synth-pop outfit. It's a strange album to place in terms of it's feel. At times it's slow and slightly depressing, while in other places being completely cheerful and carefree. One thing that weaves it's way throughout is the light and breezy electronic synth pop sound that they seem to be supremely adept at making. When I Go Out. 9733;★...

9733;★★★☆. Reviewed by John Price. Published on August 20th, 2011. Commercially successful dubstep works quite well. Some may accuse Nero of being too 'pop'. If by 'pop' they mean commercially successful, then they do have a point. All of the singles they released prior to. Have been undeniable successes in the chart.

Ready 2 Go (feat. Kele). 9733;★★☆☆. Reviewed by John Price. Published on July 5th, 2011. One of those cookie-cutter party songs that youll be hearing over and over in pubs and clubs for no discernible reason. This is your standard 'party' song, which will no doubt be played over and over again all summer by pub and club DJs alike. I can't help but feel as though it's just a bit average, a cookie-cutter song conforming to what a standard night out party song should sound like. Remix is similar, in that it...
