Mumford and Sons Sigh No More

This typically stirring tune is the title track of the future folk stars' debut album, which lands on 5 October.

Brian Wilson Heroes and Villains

Mary J Blige Stronger

All hail to the Queen of hip-hop soul for offering up a stirring dose of rhythmic inspiration.

Jay-Z featuring Drake Off That

In which our hero takes on the blowhards of American right-wing media, Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh.

Visitor Los Feeling (Monsieur Adi Remix)

Fashion student, remixer and producer Monsieur Adi provides a fresh look at an already fantastic track from prospective Australian indie-dance stars Visitor.

Trailer Trash Tracys Candy Girl

The up-and-coming London trio's debut single is a brilliant slice of woozy guitars, hazy vocals and noise pop.
