Next Wave: Samantha Urbani

Already last year Samantha Urbani caught quite a deal of attention with her song "1,2,3,4" released in April last year. It remains one of the most memorable dance tunes that has kept us on feet throughout 2015. At home in LA and NYC, she is a singer, songwriter, visual artist and skilled to so many things related to these. Her musical starts date back to 2010, when she formed internationally successful dance-punk band Friends. The band dissolved after releasing one album and several singles till 2013. Before launching her solo career, Samantha collaborated with Domino Records artist Dev Hynes. 
After two single releases as solo artist in 2015, she has surprised us yesterday when she revealed the video for possible new single "Milk Makeup". Hope there is more to follow and possible new EP or Album release. 
Stay updated and follow Samantha on Twitter and Facebook.

Best of 1986- The Album List

n the early months of 1985, the Pet Shop Boys made a significant impact on the UK charts with "West End Girls," a track that would go on to become their signature tune and biggest hit. Alongside Erasure, they played a pivotal role in transforming synth-pop into electro-dance, giving the genre a fresh and contemporary sound. The Communards also contributed to this evolving trend, as their cover of the disco classic "Don't Leave Me This Way" emerged as the best-selling single of the year.

Meanwhile, established artists like Madonna and George Michael continued to be among the best-selling acts, further shaping the pop genre. Madonna's third studio album, "True Blue," stood out as the best-selling album in the UK during this period, solidifying her status as a pop icon. The musical landscape of 1985 reflected a dynamic fusion of synth-pop, electro-dance, and enduring pop influences.
