It seems like literally everyone is losing their shit for the latest Cee Lo Green single "Fuck You", but for us it's all about its predecessor, his amazing cover of Band of Horses' "No One's Gonna Love You" that surfaced earlier this summer as a teaser single for Green's forthcoming new album Lady Killer. Dripping with all the desperate desire of the original, Green emotes over a backdrop of epic synths from producer Paul Epworth on one of the more heartwrenching tracks we've heard all year. Complete with a nigh on perfect video from Partizan newcomers Skinny (save for that somewhat cringe dialogue break halfway through), it's one of our favorite singles of the year and the first taste of what's shaping up to be a formidable comeback from Green in 2010.

ELLIE GOULDING HITS NYC.
At long last the time has come, friends. Ellie Goulding finally hits our fair shores next month, playing her debut US shows at The Roxy in LA and New York City's Hiro Ballroom. We're thrilled to be putting on the latter, going down on September 30th and presented in conjunction with Bowery Presents. And as if Ellie's first US show wasn't exciting enough as is, we've also got our main man Penguin Prison opening up the night with his high octane brand of soulful electro, making this one of the absolute hottest tickets in town. Seriously, this is going to be HUGE. Tickets are on sale now but will no doubt go fast, so cruise on over to Bowery's site to cop your tickets NOW.MP3: "Under The Sheets" (Jakwob Remix) - Ellie Goulding
NEVER LOOK BACK.
Russ Chimes upcoming Midnight Club EP and its accompanying short films have us besides ourselves with excitement, and now that the first installment has dropped we're pleased to report it doesn't disappoint. Brilliant non-linear filmmaking from director Saman Keshavarz set to another absolute burner from Monsieur Chimes. We seriously can't wait for parts two and three to arrive in the coming weeks, loving everything about this project.
