• auspOp reader Gordon (thankyou) shot this image through to us last night – and we’ve got to say that it’s got us (and no doubt countless Kylie fans) salivating wildly. Though Warner Music has yet to officially confirm its local release, it’s (UPDATED) a fan-made ‘Aphrodite : Les Folies’ tour CD/DVD package, and from the picture above, it looks altogether incredible. No doubt more news about this will come to hand in the weeks ahead, but it’s rumoured that the final official DVD will drop sometime in September.
• The Wu-Tang Clan is giving away a track from their new album ‘Legendary Weapons’. Their latest single ‘Only The Rugged Survive’ is at radio and digital retail now, but if you’d like to get your pinkies on the new tune ‘Laced Cheeba’, the second track on the band’s new LP, best you do the right click thing HERE.
• French actress and singer Amanda Lear has revealed that she’ll release a brand new album in September. The album is to be called ‘I Don’t Like Disco’, but no further details are forthcoming at this stage.
• The Baby Animals will headline this year’s Sydney Blues & Roots Festival. Fellow locals Diesel and Abby Dobson have also been added to the line-up for the four day event, which kicks off in the city’s north-west on Thursday October 27.• Joss Stone’s new single ‘Somehow’ (cover art pictured) is one of a number of new tunes serviced to local media this week. Also on the list are the aforementioned Jessica Mauboy and Nicole Scherzinger singles, along with new tunes from Chris Sebastian, Wiz Khalifa and Pitbull. For a full list of the new tracks we’re across this week, don’t forget to check out (and ‘Like’ us) over at our Facebook page – facebook.com/auspOp.
• Aussie hip hop outfit Polar Nation will live up to their name this year, hitting the slopes for the annual ‘Back To The Top’ festival. They’ll play dates on Mount Hotham and at Station Resort in Jindabyne in August, along with dates in Sydney and Melbourne. All the guff HERE.
• Speaking of Melbourne, Aussie singer songwriter Matt Walters is about to hop on a plane to the United States to commence work on his next release, the follow-up to his critically acclaimed ‘Farewell Youth’. But he wants to bid a fond farewell to his hometown fans, planning a one-off show at The Toff In Town on Wednesday July 27.
• Hunters & Collectors singer Mark Seymour has added a run of Queensland shows throughout September. There are dates locked down for (in this order) Cairns, Townsville, Mackay, Dysart, Rockhampton, Hervey Bay, Caloundra and Brisbane. Further details with regards venues and ticket sales are available on his OFFICIAL WEBSITE.
• The No.1 and No.2 positions on the UK singles chart remain unchanged this week, giving Jason Derulo and Example a further week in their positions. Beyonce jumps in at No.3 with her latest single ‘Best Thing I Never Had’, bouncing Calvin Harris’ latest tune down to No.4. Coldplay’s new tune ‘Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall’ bullets 31 places to No.10.
• Interestingly, Coldplay and Beyonce’s appearances at Glastonbury have done wonders for their singles. There are heaps of re-entries peppered throughout the top 100 this week. Beyonce scores No.03, No.23, No.33, No.60, No.62, No.72 and No.76.
Coldplay grabs No.10, No.40, No.47, No.51, No.59, No.68 and No.98.
• And on the British album chart this week, it’s Beyonce again – her LP ‘4’ debuting in the top spot on the back of her Glastonbury appearance. Biffy Clyro and Kaiser Chiefs also gain from their Glastonbury spots – their new LPs debuting at No.9 and No.10 respectively.

Hey Popmusicity,
Gavin’s single has been serviced to Australian media this week by Sony.
Usually country tunes only get picked up by regional radio stations throughout New South Wales and Queensland, but the track is available to everyone to play.

So what’s going on with Gavin DeGraw? His new album (Sweeter) is out here on September 9 and his terrific new single ‘Not Over You’ is available on iTunes…So why isn’t he being pushed by his record company here? ‘Not Over You’ is really radio friendly and sounds fresh. Plus he is a great talent!
Auspop, have you heard ‘Not Over You’?
