The musings of a team of 20 something friends in Cork, Ireland
It will be recalled (well, ok it will not be recalled, I had to use the “search” button to find out that) over one year ago we wrote about Calvin Harris. We are pleased to hear (literally) that he is still active.
Mitchell Brothers feat. Calvin Harris - Michael Jackson
Continuing in my audiorial quest for the sweetest 80s synthesizer sounds this week I have mostly been listening to Calvin Harris. (his myspace page has a flash player with a few tracks)
His name is by now familiar to most thanks to populatity of the debut single “Acceptable in the 80s” which recently reached No 10 on the UK Singles Chart, receiving coverage on the radio and music channels such as MTV.
His next single “The Girls” is scheduled for release at the end of May.
Harris uses an unashamed British accent on his tracks, like a Male Sophie Ellis-Bextor, and this is to be admired as so many singers put on the same American accent. Although Harris does not use the thick Scottish accent perhaps as he could never equal the Proclaimers dualing vocal chords.
