Like many Silverchair fans, I still haven’t gotten used to the fact that frontman Daniel Johns put out an R&B/neo-soul album (last year’s Talk). That said, he lends his vocals to Slumberjack’s latest, “Open Fire,” and it’s a contagious ball of wonderful, which also happens to be in the R&B/neo-soul vein, albeit with some dubstep…

Our readers in the U.S. might not have heard of Norwegian singer/songwriter Bellman yet, but in some parts of the world he is a very big deal. He released his critically acclaimed debut album, Mainly Mute, in 2009 and had his first big hit single with an uplifting song called, “Spaceship Move Slow” and it’s…
