VidZone Update: Groove Armada World Premiere

GROOVE ARMADA WORLD PREMIERE

The world premiere for the new GROOVE ARMADA videos is coming to all VidZone PS3 users today! Their new video “I Won’t Kneel” is an ultra sultry, retro future classic that once again rips up the rule book to their ever changing sound. I implore that you check it out right away.

We are also interviewing the band next week and they have asked us to ask you for any questions you might like to ask. Anything you want,.. well… within reason ;)

VIDZONE UPDATE: THE SWEET SMELL OF NEW VIDEOS

What do new videos smell like? Fresh of course! Like just mowed grass, like a spring rain shower, like a gently trickling waterfall, like an underwear drawer full of socks and pants just laundered by your mum. So if you get asked, “how fresh are the new videos on VidZone?” You can say? “Mmm… mum fresh”.

Lots to tell you this week so I will get straight down to business.

Home Page Features

Artist of the Week
Whitney Houston – Not Whitney Housten as I once wrote on the Twitter and got duly crucified for by eagle eyed tweeters. That’s right “The Voice” is back and belting it out as well as ever. “Million Dollar Bill” and “I Look to You” are both brand new videos you should definitely watch if you are a Whitney fan ( which I think we all are whether proud or in the closet).

Best of Covers
No, we AREN’T talking sheets here…we ARE talking artists singing other artists songs. Bob Dylan sings the Crazy Frog, Metallica sings Enya, Ludacris sings Miley Cyrus… OK, these are not covers which have ever existed (but they really should). This week Weird Al Yankovic sings Nirvana, Westlife sings Billy Joel, Mark Ronson sings Radiohead with covers that have happened and that you can watch here.

Country Hits
I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to Country and Western, but it seems that it’s what a lot of you want in your life. So here you go, get your cowboy hats on and spurs out and scream yeeeeehaaaaww!! Actually, maybe I should just stop stereotyping.

Blast from the Past
Modern music is overrated, the old music is the best music. Wow, I sound like my dad and it’s not true, but you have to admit there is a lot of good old music out there. So much in fact, that we’ve had trouble narrowing the playlist down to a short list. But we did it! So enjoy!

Other Stuff

We received this video the other day and we would like to know what you think… But be warned, as you can see from the screenshot, it is a cringe worthy, but we reckon you won’t be able to stop yourself from watching on.

The Visitors
We like to champion new music as much as possible so we recommend this must seevideo by The Vistors called “Another Day”. Check it out and let us know what you think.

New Videos
Just a reminder to tell you that you can see all the newly uploaded videos in the “New Videos” section of the service, a few of you have been asking for a full list of videos and hadn’t realised that they were listed here.

Next Week
As we only blog about the updates every two weeks and we update the features weekly, thought it would be a good idea to tell y’all what we have planned for next week too so you can prepare yourself both mentally and physically for it.
