A quick low-down on the the new singles avalible to buy and making a hit on the dancefloors of Newquays nightlife.

Audio Bullys 'Shot Me Down' (Dance) Audio Bullys have taken Nancy Sinatra's original from the 'Kill Bill' soundtrack and used its fearsome atmosphere, to play host to one of their most unashamedly dancefloor friendly cuts to date. Laden with wobbly basslines and dropping down to the barest of vocals it has tension, it has outright abandon, and it is undoubtedly one of the finest-crafted bootlegs to have emerged in the past few years

DJ Sammy 'Why' (Dance)
The irrepressible DJ Sammy returns with another truly massive hit that is set to ignite the UK's airwaves and dance floors over the coming summer. Sammy's interpretation of Annie Lennox's early 90's solo hit 'Why' delivers all the smouldering emotion of the original, whilst turning up the heat for 2005 with his unmistakable Balearic sun-kissed beats.

 

Foo Fighters 'Best Of You' (Rock) The mighty Foo Fighters return with the dazzling 'Best Of You’, the first single to be taken from their forthcoming epic double album ‘In Your Honour’. Sure to become a rock anthem, spanning the boundaries of hysteria at this year's Reading Festival, 'Best Of You' is laced with slabs of oversized rock and reinforced with a smouldering guitar frenzy, proving Dave Grohl and the guys are still at the top of their game, ten years after their debut.

Gwen Stefani 'An Honest Mistake' (Alt) Ready to attack and lead the pack, Gwen Stefani releases her third solo single, ‘Hollaback Girl’. Written in retaliation after someone called Gwen a cheerleader in an uncomplimentary way, this Neptunes-produced slice of 80s hip-hop pastiche gives the ultimate middle finger to all the haters with its infectious chanting chorus, bouncy rhythm and super-cool American high school video

Oasis 'Dont Believe The Truth' (indie) For those concerned that Oasis have slipped way too deep into the realm of Dad-rock, you will be pleased to hear that the Gallaghers can still produce some of the most infectiously catchy indie-rock around. From the psychedelic whirlpool of hit single ‘Lyla’, to the one and a half minute swagger of ‘The Meaning Of Soul’, by way of the magnificently-titled ‘Mucky Fingers’, ‘Don’t Believe The Truth’ provides the perfect balance between the ups and the downs.
