Watch Listen Tell – Golden Silvers
You may remember our little feature on a lovely London based video production company who film some really strong bands in and around the capital. Bombay Bicycle Club was the video we featured last time but their YouTube Channel has exclusive acousti...
Ian Brown Returns
Ian Brown is back and he’s returned with one of his strongest songs to date. Stellify is the first single from the upcoming album and the original monkey man has blown me away. The video is as definitive as the song itself. Brown is trooping th...
Kiss Of Life
August 2009. London, United Kingdom. Dull summer. The sun hasn’t properly shown its cocky bright face for weeks now, and the capital is greyer than ever. I was about to surrender to the dark forces ruling weather in Britain and say goodbye to a...
The Kitsuné Effect
Uplifting is the first word that I associated when I first heard Delphic on the radio last night. It was great driving around Central London with the volume turned up just below breaking point and the front windows down. I love this single – it...
Girls And Boys In Love
One of Radio 1’s most cherished DJ’s is deeply respected for his championing of great music – almost three years ago Rob Da Bank had this David E. Sugar mix spinning regularly and I’ve just seen it hiding in my music collectio...
Friendly Visual Delight
The video for Friendly Fires’ new single is up and it’s great. Shot on the coast of Ibiza with the classical African skin drums -- perfect summer track. Radio is going to like this one. They deserve the Mercury Music Prize more than anyon...
Kiss Of Life – UPDATED
Friendly Fires are back!! I love this song – heard it at Glastonbury for the first time and had to deal with a shabby YouTube clip to hear it again. Luckily however I did see the video a while back at an XL Recordings preview and it’s ano...
I Had The Blues…
Back in the very early stages of The Mahogany Blog we had two posts about Bombay Bicycle Club. Easily one of the most promising young bands in the U.K. Finally their album is released and it’s a nice little gem but it more of a autumn/winter al...
Currently Playing…
OK so no real theme behind these tracks - just that they’re all great tracks being put on repeat frequently. The first two tracks are from the Kitsune Maison Compilation 7 - I strongly suggest you further investigate it. One of the bands we tip...
Video Drive-Thru
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll Jack Penate - Be The One...
Cat House
Just when you think your favourite band had called it day you realise they’re reborn under a new name and with a new surge of energy. Having seen these guys play a fair share of gigs it was devastating to hear that they were no longer making mu...
A Little Recap
Hello readers, We thought we’d recommended some older posts to you as we’re starting to build and build on so many pages so these little gems sometimes get lost in it all - it’s the music that stills plays through our speakers on a ...
Vuitton Blues
Ah this brings back memories of a good night at 93 Feet East when these guys played a great set. Considering there are 7 band members including two singers the energy is perfect. They don’t edge toward any particular genre either: instead they ...
More Wood For The Fire
Right then, tickets in hand for Friendly Fires gig at the Forum so what better way to celebrate than a little Frankie Knuckles track covered by the boys themselves? Featured on the Ministry of Sound: Uncovered compilation this cover fits Friendly Fir...
Brand new Florence & The Machine exclusive!
That’s right people - TMB has got the new single from Florence & The Machine and for the time being we have it exclusively. You won’t be able to find it anywhere else online at the moment so let’s all revel in the moment. Dog Da...
Jay-Z vs. The Verve - Brush Your Bittersweet Shoulders Off
This is one of the best Jay-Z mash-ups around and a lot of people were expecting him to perform this version at Glastonbury considering The Verve were headlining the day after. As for The Verve, loved Urban Hymns, but the new album sucked. If any of ...
Kasabian - Underdog
When Kasabian released their self titled debut album back in 2004 it was such a breath of fresh air for UK alternative rock. They merged their own brand of electronica with progessive alternative rock and delivered a classic record. Then came their f...
Foals - Olympic Airways (Ewan Pearson’s Return To The Villa Of Joy Remix)
Boy do we miss Foals here at Mahogany. There hasn’t been a more experimental and enjoyable debut album for a long time - it was essentially one continuous piece of music that had to be split up due to label demands. I know they’re making ...
Bloc Party - Intimacy Remixed
Intimacy was one of the best albums released in 2008 and the proof that Bloc Party are able to reinvent themselves whilst staying true to their indie roots. Their first album, Silent Alarm, had been remixed (by Ladytron, M83, among others) and Intima...
