It's All Indie: Top 20 - #2

Kele - Tenderoni

From the start this is a club hit. His first single has had much mixed reviews from Bloc Party fans on the forum. Sounds like a instrumental mash up of Bodyrox and Wiley, with Keles vocals over the top. Still, ever since I heard it on Zane Lowe on Radio 1 I have gone from hate, to love. Now? I just love it! Building into a throbbing climax, halting momentarily before kicking back into a massive moment of club euphoria, this will be a vital summer hit, NO WAIT IT IS.



Bands going on hiatus often means one of three things: the group have fallen out, the band have run out of ideas, or the lead singer wants to go it alone. In the case of Bloc Party, it appears to be the latter, as Kele Okereke prepares to release his electro-tinged solo début.

Track of the day... Kele - Rise

Kele just won't keep still, after only a few days after Young Legionnaire posted their debut song ont the internet Kele pops up with TWO new songs. Maybe it's to push his project furthur ahead of other Bloc Party side projects, or not. But still a busy week for Bloc Party fans!



Lullaby-like vocals usher in a massive, elated, house-music-style chorus, armed with super-positive words of club encouragement such as "You are stronger than you think", "Up to the light/Brothers and sisters unite". An old-school house singer bolshily takes over vocal duties, singing "I'll take you over", before the song turns into vaguely Daft Punk-esque, edgier territory. Fades out with glistening keys, finishing on an absolute high.

He has also premiered Walk Tall, another track from his debut album on the facebook/blog/myspace site. Below are 3 tracks we so far have.
