[Watch] Two Door Cinema Club - "Sleep Alone" Live on Conan

We've seen Two Door Cinema hit up a few shows on the late night circuit in the US in the past year. Back in September they played on Fallon, and last October they played Kimmel. (Damn this year has flown by, I honestly thought it was this year they played!) Last night they added Conan to the notches on their bed post with a performance of "Sleep Alone" for the viewers and masses at home. Check out the performance at the top courtesy of The Audio Perv.

Their new album Beacon is out now.

[Listen] Biffy Clyro - "Stingin' Belle" x "We Built This City" (Starship Cover) in Radio One's Live Lounge

This week has marked Rock Week on Radio One and they've been putting on shows each night of some of the top names in rock from the world over. Last night Gaslight Anthem put in a great performance and today's guest was the soon to be Arena filling band, Biffy Clyro. They played a gorgeous stripped back version of their single "Stingin' Belle" and a mystery cover that turned out to be the 80's classic from Starship, "We Built This City". 

Check them both out below and look out for some more tracks tomorrow following their live set tonight at Maida Vale. Their album Opposites is set for release on January 28th and I for one cannot wait!

[Listen] Rhye - "The Fall" (Maurice Fulton Alt Remix)

We got to enjoy the thought provoking video for Rhye's track "The Fall" a few weeks back and it's been getting some heavy play on my end. Today though we can add another version into the mix of plays as Maurice Fulton has offered up an alternative remix turning the chilled out track into a funky red bull drinking jaunt that's absolutely perfect for these dark mornings in the city. Check it out below and look out for The Fall EP which is set to drop on November 12th via Innovative Leisure / Polydor.

[Download] Divine Fits - "Would That Not Be Nice" (RJD2 Remix)

Those that know me know i'm one of the biggest RJD2 stans out there. So when seeing that RJ remixed Divine Fits "Would That Not Be Nice" in my inbox, you can imagine how ape shit I went. I pretty much summerized it as Spoon x RJD2 but it wasn't the typical production you would expect from RJ this time around. The remix takes the already dancey original and adds some simple drums and signature synths which feel more like a LCD Soundsystem track than an RJD2 track.

Don't get me wrong, i'm not hating the track at all. I just expected a heavier hip hop drum driven track. Nevertheless, its still a great to listen to despite my personal feelings of the remix. Take a listen to remix below and if you havent already listened to/picked up Divine Fits' debut LP A Thing Called Divine Fits, you should do so now. LIKE RIGHT NOW.

[Watch] Prince Visits Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Last night the man with the magic fingers, the artist that really doesn't need any introduction, a man who's had a few name changes over the years, Prince, made a visit to Jimmy Kimmel Live! Performing on the outdoor stage wearing a glittery gold Hendrix-esque outfit the performance was down right great. I have a huge respect for this guy and his musical ability. Even if you're not a fan of his music you can't deny the talent. 

He performed "Rock and Roll Love Affair"  along with "The Dance Electric" and you can relive the magic right here courtesy of The Audio Perv. You know th drill. The latter is after the jump with "Rock and Roll Love Affair" being up at the top.

[Watch] Bloc Party - "So He Begins To Lie" Live on Jools Holland

Another notable performance from last night's airing of Later... with Jools Holland came from the re-energised Bloc Party who recently returned with their stunningly riff heavy album, Four. Although not one of my personal favourites from the album, this live rendition of "So He Begins To Lie" shows the band are back and not pulling any punches in their return. Enjoy the performance at the top and look out for more later in the week.
