Collarbones Return (Two Bright Lakes/Remote Control)

Crossing the lines between house, electronic and pop music, Collarbones are the perfect duo that will make you want to get up and dance. "Collarbones are a force all on their own", according to The Music’s Sevana Ohandjanian. An album definitely made for the clubbing scene.

Jools Holland & His Rhythm & Blues Orchestra Sirens Of Song (Warner)

Prominent British musician Jools Holland has returned with his latest offering Sirens Of Song which features a phenomenal list of female artist collaborations. According to reviewer Carley Hall, Holland can do no wrong: "Holland’s orchestra never falters, nor do the man’s fingers on the ivories".

Wu-Tang Clan A Better Tomorrow (Warner)

The Wu-Tang Clan have brought back the style and originality that attracted fans when they first emerged with their latest release. According to The Music’s Mark Hebblewhite, "A Better Tomorrow is probably the best Wu-Tang ‘group’ album since the debut", so make sure you grab a copy when it drops tomorrow.
