No Introduction

No Introduction is the debut studio album by American rapper Tyga. It was released on June 10, 2008, by this independent record label Decaydance Records. Recording sessions took place during 2005 to 2008, while the production on the album was handled by Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy and S*A*M & Sluggo, as well as the guest appearances from then-label-mates, such as Travie McCoy of Gym Class Heroes and Alex DeLeon of The Cab, among others. It was supported by three singles: "Diamond Life" featuring Patty Crash, "Coconut Juice" featuring Travie McCoy, and "AIM".

The album identifies Tyga's past effort of alternative rap rock due to the pop rock style of Decaydance Records label. This was the rapper's "clean" debut attempt, which features no explicit language or references, except of one vague noun use of the word "shit" in the song "Pillow Talkin'" and some explicit language in the deluxe edition tracks, before his full shift to explicit style of rapping in 2009, however, Tyga did use profanity during his early mixtape days, such as Young on Probation.

A Head Full of Dreams

A Head Full of Dreams is the seventh studio album by British rock band Coldplay. It was released on 4 December 2015 by Parlophone and Atlantic Records, with a markedly different style and sound from its predecessors. It is the second album by the band in North America on Atlantic, after Coldplay were transferred from Capitol Records America in 2013. For various songs on the album Coldplay collaborated with Beyoncé, Noel Gallagher, Tove Lo, Khatia Buniatishvili and Merry Clayton. The album was produced by Rik Simpson and Stargate. Coldplay have also revealed that the album features a sample of the U.S. President Barack Obama singing "Amazing Grace" at Clementa C. Pinckney's funeral on the track "Kaleidoscope".

The album received generally positive reviews from critics. It became the band's first album not to debut at number one in the UK after being held off the top spot by Adele's 25, however it topped the chart on 12 February 2016 following exposure from the band's Super Bowl 50 appearance.

Kaleidoscope (UK radio series)

Kaleidoscope was a BBC Radio 4 arts programme which began in 1973. It ended with the major schedule changes that occurred in April 1998, when it was replaced by Front Row.

History

When originally launched on 9 April 1973, in a re-organisation of the schedules, it was intended to cover the arts and sciences in equal measure, but soon dropped its science coverage. The Radio 4 controller was Tony Whitby.

Schedules

It started out being broadcast from 10.30pm until 11pm each weekday night. It was initially followed by fifteen minutes of Today in Parliament. Early presenters were alternately Kenneth Robinson and Brian J. Ford. It ran in a variety of slots over the years, including mid-evening, in the lead up to the 10pm news (allowing it to include live reviews of first nights) and in mid-afternoon (the latter starting out as a repeat of the previous night's edition). It was broadcast from Monday to Friday, finishing in the late 1990s from 4.15pm until 5pm. A reprise of the highlights was broadcast on Saturday afternoons as Kaleidoscope Omnibus.

Kaleidoscope (Siouxsie and the Banshees album)

Kaleidoscope is the third studio album by English rock band Siouxsie and the Banshees, released in 1980 by record label Polydor. With the arrival of two new musicians, Budgie on drums and John McGeoch on guitars, the band changed their musical direction and offered an album containing a wide variety of colors. "It was almost a different band", said Siouxsie.

The album was preceded by the hit singles "Happy House" and "Christine". In the UK, Kaleidoscope quickly became their most successful album to date, climbing at N°5 in the albums chart.

Background and music

Following the departure of two band members, the band regrouped and redirected their sound for their third record. Departing from their previous work, the Banshees incorporated synthesizers and drum machines for the first time. They particularly experimented in electronic music on a couple of tracks: the electro-dance minimalism of "Red Light" and the atmospheric, synth-based piece "Lunar Camel". The album also contained what could be described as a ballad, "Desert Kisses". Kaleidoscope marked the debut of guitarist John McGeoch and new drummer Budgie. Siouxsie saw it "like a new lease of life". The songs had been demoed at Warner Chappell studios with only a bass and a synthesizer played by Siouxsie and Steven Severin. After the 1979's tour, Siouxsie had been ordered to take one month of rest by doctors: she used this time to learn guitars and compose music for the first time.
