Chart Choice with Darren Spence
THIS is a very odd week for music releases. There's an interesting band from New Zealand, an act from the 1980s who refuse to give up and a trance DJ who started making music in the Nineties with an old Atari and a synthesiser.
Cut Off Your Hands are four lads from Auckland who have been compared with We Are Scientists. But their new song, Oh Girl, sounds like The Libertines. Judge for yourself. It's upbeat and quirky.

Chart Choice with Darren Spence
Remember Hue & Cry, who sang Looking For Linda and Labour Of Love in the late Eighties?
They're still making music but sadly for them, I still can't see Headin' For A Fall being a Top 40 hit.
Billie Ray Martin had a massive hit in 1995 with Your Loving Arms. It was a proper, energetic club hit. Fast forward 14 years and Italian trance DJ Jose Amnesia has done his own version which, when I go on holiday this summer, will be on my iPod.
It's one of the most relaxing dance tunes I've ever heard. I love my dance music, and there's nothing like a good chillout tune to make that holiday more special.
