Diamond Cut weekender: if you like lady-pop then you will thoroughly approve of what follows

Australia isn't bad when it comes to pop music. Sneaky Sound System, Holly Valance, Rogue Traders, those Minogue women, Gayle & Gillian - there's a decent legacy of ladies from down-under who are generally pretty good.

Now Radio Ink isn't a woman so much as it is a woman standing in front of some men singing while they make all the music. Their MySpace tags them as 'New Wave / Electro / House' but we'd just like to tag them as: BLOODY BRILLIANT.

Their involvement with Diamond Cut (for it is he) on two of their tracks has resulted in the following:

ONE amazing club track that could oh so easily have been recorded by any of the Aussie pop people mentioned above and ONE brilliantly retro eighties ballad which sounds like Gwen Stefani's 'Cool' but after being given a bit of a kick up the bottom.

Here's the one that will make you dance.

Radio Ink 'Give Me What You Got' (Diamond Cut remix)


And here's the one that will make you call your ex and tell them you love them very much.

Radio Ink 'Wish U Were Here' (Diamond Cut remix)


Very, very amazing. Watch this space - or more accurately, watch this band.

Here's some more whatnot on Radio Ink.
