Life Is Good is LFO's 2nd album and as with the first album it's very catchy from start to finish. LFO incoporate their boy band appearance with funky hip-hop and even at time Rock like beats to come out with an innovative style. Their second album is like a breath of fresh air when we're at an age where boy bands are thrown off the conveyor-belt before you can digest the last product. LFO are different to the conveyor-belt trash yet their style would appeal to the masses, with songs such as: 'Every other time' (released in the U.S), '6 minutes' and the album entitled track of 'Life is Good.' The band surely have something going on and it's not just me who recognises it as artists such as De La Soul, Kelis & M.O.P make it onto the album. So if you are looking for a refreshing sound then this is the album for you!
LFO are back with Life Is Good, and so it should be - this album is their best to date. From start to finish, every track is catchy and fresh, with a wider range of music than their Backstreet Boys-esque debut. The guest vocals (MOB, DeLa Soul, Kelis) fit in perfectly. Well worth your money (I'd pay any amount for the track Dandelion), this CD has solely restored my faith in the music industry.

It's been a slow, almost imperceptible evolution, but on Ultravisitor, the seventh album from Tom Jenkinson's Squarepusher project, we finally see this Chelmsford-based electronica guru shrugging off the rather primitive drill 'n' bass tag, and maturing into a fully-fledged musical auteur. Look at him on that sleeve, all serious stare and mutton-chop sideburns: this record feels like a conscious attempt to install Jenkinson into a serious musical canon alongside his obvious heroes John Cage, Miles Davies and Sun Ra.
It's a good try, as over these 70-odd minutes of electro-rave mayhem and frighteningly complex jazz-fusion improv, Jenkinson shows absolutely no sign of slowing his dizzying inventive velocity. The flirtation with UK garage that formed the synthetic exoskeleton of 2001's My Red Hot Car is sadly absent, but pieces such as "Menelee" and "Steinbolt" demonstrate fresh fascination for all manner of mutant strains of electronic hardcore and urban junglism, and fill the gap admirably.
Elsewhere, we find Jenkinson's passion for live instrumentation more pronounced than at any time since 1998's "Music Is Rotted One Note". This isn't always a good thing. The thrumming, masturbatory bass-soloing of "C-Town Smash" takes jazz proficiency into new realms of ridiculousness. But "I Fulcrum" carries the interstellar legacy of Sun Ra into as-yet undiscovered galaxies, and "Iambic 9 Poetry" proves Jenkinson's gift for melody remains gloriously intact, a perfect example of chiming instrumental clarity amid the deranged chatter of machine-code chaos.

Putting aside the Girl Power phenomenon--really, what were the chances five scantily-clad birds flashing their knickers with kung-fu kicks wouldn't make it in the music industry?--the Spice Girls really do mean something: great singles. There's not a dog in their whole back-catalogue. They kicked off their career with "Wannabe", "Say You'll Be There" and "2 Become 1"--that's the pop equivalent of an Olympic gold in the triathlon. They're all here on Spice, along with the live favourite "If You Can't Dance"--one that Geri always looked particularly picked-upon whilst singing--and that irresistible champagne effervescence of pop history in the making. The only mistake they made at this point in their career was not releasing the slinky R&B track "Naked" as a single; and if that's because the video plot automatically suggests itself as too obvious, it's not as if that curtailed any other facet of their career.

What is it about tricycles that make all children love them? Is it the feeling of independence? The Baby Too Trike from Groupe Berchet is the perfect size for toddlers starting out on a tricycle for the first time and comes with lots of extras you just don't find on many tricycles around now. It has a high-quality frame, rubber wheels for a quieter ride, a brake for the two rear wheels and a special seat with carry handle and safety harness. The frame adjusts to four positions, allowing your child to use this tricycle as they grow, and also has adjustable handlebars to make it more comfortable.
On this version there is also a collapsible and retractable parent handle, which is height adjustable to any position. The handle is much more comfortable and easier to use than the traditional pole attachments on other tricycles. If your child is too small to reach the pedals, just pull out the red circle on the front wheel. This allows the child to be pushed by an adult or if you want total parental control, tighten the red button on the steering column to fix the direction of the steering. Another added extra is the detachable bag for carrying a picnic or toddler essentials. The bag can be clipped onto the parent handle or detached to be used as a rucksack.
Having the ability to control the direction of the steering (especially when walking down the street) is bonus. The silver basket on the back is the perfect place to put dolls, or other toys, in when giving them a ride around the garden. The safety harness could be used to strap little ones onto the trike, but some may prefer not to use this in case they manage to topple it over and need a quick exit, but it comes in useful for trips down the street.
