Love this song, so simple. But when you are as good as Mike you don't need gimmicks, you only need to stand there and sing.

MV : "Ruk khon tho ma jung luey" by P Saderd

Currently loving this song off P Saderd's new album, and loving that album too!

CD : Karaked - yark pen khon tee don ai huk

We are big fans of Karaked and eagerly awaited her third album, it does not disappoint. Karaked's smooth vocals shine throughout both on easy paced tracks like "Khon kum lung mee kwam ruk" and the pacier "Poo sao tai barn". The music on this album is full of catchy hooks which makes for a very enjoyable listen.



The backing is competant throughout though most of the excitement is from Karaked's voice which often cuts through the rest of the song and hits you stone dead. So a good album though there are a full duff tracks on the CD which cuts the rating a bit.

Rating : 7.8/10

MV : "Fhun khong poh kum khor khong mae" by Bua Bunchitar

I really like Bua's CD, its one of the better ones this year.

CD : Dear Sasitorn - hua jai nuk soo

Dear Sasitorn's debut then and what a great start to her career this is. The title track starts things off a nice slow emotional track though things get even better with "Bao nuk rean yai" an energetic song with a great chorus. Dear's vocals are a bit high but have an endearing "young girl" atmosphere to them (if that makes any sense). The backing is inventive and often quite rocky and even sometimes bluesy and funky.

Dear really shines on "Ror ruk tai ton kradone" which is nothing short of brilliant, a powerful song with Dear's vocals cutting through and some great guitar and inventive beat. But there are other great songs like the slow emotional "Klom". Dear really knows how to put emotion into her singing (which is not the easiest of skills). After this album i am just wanting more. Best debutant this year easily, so far anyway.

MV : "Jeb nee puer ter" by Fon Tanasoontorn

Superb song by the princess of lukthung.

CD : Vit Hyper - koh vit

We loved Vit Hyper's solo album from last year especially with it's iconic tune "wittalai lhai jai" which was one of our top 3 favourite songs from last tear. This is the follow-up and it sounds like Vit knew he was onto a good thing and has produced a very similar album.

Whether it is on slower songs like "new nang kang kwa" or faster rockier songs like "sarm cha" you could probably mix these songs with the previous album's and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. That is not a criticism though, just an acknowledgment that Vit has found his groove and is sticking to it. None of the songs really stack up to "wittalai..." though there are a couple of attempts to come close to it. Overall the album is better balanced and is a truly excellent listen.

Some men are ...well... men. Other men are gods. Vit is the god of dreadlocks. Enjoy.
