'Party Girl' -pätkä

Englantilainen radiokanava BBC Radio 1 soitti tänään n. 55 sekunnin pätkän 'Party Girlistä'! Voit kuunnella pätkän esimerkiksi täältä.
Noh, mitä mieltä olette? Itse en vieläkään oikein tiedä. Biisi on ihan menevä, hyvät sanat, mutta jos ajattelee, että se on McFlyn biisi... Minusta se ei ole ainakaan yhtä hyvä kuin McFlyn edelliset biisit, mutta kyllä se mp3-soittimeeni pääsee. Olen kuitenkin varma, että siitä tulee suuri hitti jokaisessa maailmankolkassa, jossa sille annetaan mahdollisuus. Medialta McFly on saanut vain positiivista palautetta, ja aika moni fanikin on siitä pitänyt. Aivan varmasti kuitenkin löytyy sellaisiakin, jotka eivät uudesta tyylistä pidä... Toivon, ettei niitä montaa ole.

#partygirl on tälläkin hetkellä maalmanlaajuisissa trending topiceissa Twitterissä. Se nousi sinne aika nopeasti Radio 1:n soitettua pätkän.



Party Girl soitetaan tänään kokonaisuudessaan In Demand -radiokanavalla klo 21.00 ja 24.00 välillä Suomen aikaa. Voit kuunnella In Demandiä livenä tästä.

"McFly Preview New Album For EF

Last night EF was invited to spend a couple of hours with McFly as the band gears up for the release of their brand new album. Arriving at a top secret location late yesterday afternoon, we took our place in the intimate setting to find our about the band’s new album, their new sound and their exciting new ‘super site’.

Openly mingling with the small audience, the McFly boys turned on the charm as they greeted us. Tom, Danny, Dougie and Harry (who’s clearly been working out – check out those guns!) looked great and took their places as they readied to talk about their new sound along with manager Fletch.

What followed was an interesting explanation of the band’s decision to reunite with former label Universal Record and the reason why they felt they had to change their sound. Fletch explained the band recorded an album’s worth of material whilst in Australia but on their return home decided that the sound didn’t push the band as much as it should. This sparked the band to push their creative boundaries and they soon flew off to the US to work with uber-producer Dallas Austin, responsible for big hits by TLC, Pink and Mariah Carey to name a few. Fletch handed over to the band and Tom took over recounting their first experiences with Dallas. Describing Dallas’ hardcore approach to working Tom recalled the band being initially surprised as they were working in ways they weren’t used to.

The band seemed genuinely excited about the next phase in their hugely successful careers and talked passionately about the project. As well as talking about their experiences with Dallas, the boys also talked about working with Taio Cruz to pen some additional tracks to be included on the record. They also discussed the super-hero theme their new artwork has adopted to tie-in with their new sound and look.

Throughout the band speaking there were video clips and previews of new tracks from the album. New single Party Girl was the first track we heard and it sounds quite unlike anything McFly has done before. With heavier beats and R&B/electro-rhythms the track is a million miles away from the band’s previous releases. Other tracks previewed were the Prince-esque I’ll Be Your Man and two Taio Cruz penned tracks Shine A Light (the album’s second single) and Nowhere Left To Run (a rough cut still to be mixed properly). Each of the songs sounded completely different to what we’ve heard from McFly before and could see the band picking up an older audience. We were genuinely impressed by the band’s new direction and can safely say we’re excited to see how the fans respond.

The last part of our time with the band consisted of being shown the new McFly ‘super site’. Still in development, the website is a high-tech, visually stunning and highly interactive offering that fans will be blown away by. The site will offer some free content alongside a subscription service allowing fans to get closer to the band than ever before. Subscribers will get the opportunity to win points that they can trade in for exclusive McFly goodies and they will also get access to exclusive content directly from the band. We’ll be bringing you more information on the website in the coming weeks."
