The Australian electro dance group, Miami Horror, returns for their fourth release, The Shapes. The Shapes is a consistent conceptual release, that focuses on the amalgamation between music and visual art. The sound is percussive and colourful, the visuals playful and bold, while visually, The Shapes is a collection of art that aims to break the mould and put some color back into daily life. Usually known for their diverse sound and eclectic mix of influences, The Shapes gives Miami Horror the freedom to focus on one specific musical direction, existing as a stand alone, conceptual release.

On her 13th album, Diana Krall reinterprets jazz standards with the idea that subtlety and moderation can provide a powerful platform for intense emotion. That’s brilliantly proven when rumba classic “Sway” is transformed into a slow dance so intimate she could be singing it with her head on your shoulder. The spare arrangements ensure the instrumentation is as emotive as Krall’s voice, and her piano gambols with Stuart Duncan’s fiddle to capture the breathless giddiness of love on “I’ll See You In My Dreams.”
