Elly Roberts reviews
[One]
South London trio Dirty Vegas (Paul Harris, Steve Smith, Ben Harris) come storming back with radio friendly epic.
The Grammy Award winners hit you with a New Order feelgood factor: chunky bass, chiming guitars andlightweight vocals. Going clubbing? Itll be all over you like a rash, because the catchy hooks willgrab you and youll be singing it all the way home. New album, One, released Oct 18.
Always Comes Too Soon
Heard this lush dancepop crossover classic on a compilation a few weeks ago. Its been bubbling underfor some time and set to become an Ibiza anthem. Rolling synths, funky bass lines and Brads gorgeousvocals are set to light up clubs across the nation. Dont stay out too late, or this could be yoursing along has you head for the taxi ! Guaranteed number one.

Elly Roberts passed away in 2011, but he was a man who was so passionate about all types of music and loved meeting his musical heroes, such as Mick Hucknall at a book signing at the Trafford Centre, Manchester in 2007.
A former teacher and also a music journalist, DJ and radio presenter on local community station Calon FM, plus appearances on BBC Radio Wales, BBC Radio Cymru and BBC Radio 2, Elly started doing reviews for DVDfever.co.uk in 2004 and he did the majority of the CD and concerts reviews on the website.
I know also that he loved getting away for the summer to Spain and I hope that wherever he is now he is enjoying the hot sunshine and, as one of his friends has said on his Facebook page, that he is interviewing his musical heroes.
