Taylor Swift scored a ten out of 10 to turn into the primary artist in historical past to assert the Prime 10 slots on the Billboard Scorching 100 chart within the US, with tracks from her newest album, Midnights.
Billboard reported on Monday that Swift has surpassed Drake, who had held the earlier file with 9 of the Prime 10 songs for per week in September 2021.
“10 out of 10 of the Scorching 100??? On my tenth album??? I AM IN SHAMBLES,” the 32-year-old pop star tweeted.
The brand new album got here out on 21 October with each a 13-track customary launch and a deluxe model with seven bonus tracks. It has had one of many greatest album launches in practically seven years. Billboard additionally reported that Swift now ties with Barbra Streisand for the feminine artist with essentially the most No 1 albums.
The No 1 spot on the Billboard chart belongs to Anti-Hero, whose lyrics “It’s me/hello/I’m the issue/It’s me” have shortly turn into a TikTok development. The opposite Prime 10 songs embody Lavender Haze, Maroon, Snow on the Seashore, Midnight Rain, Bejeweled and Query … ?
Swift has set a variety of new information with Midnights: it had the largest first week of gross sales of any album this yr, nearly doubling the numbers of the earlier title-holder, Harry’s House, the third solo album by Harry Styles. Midnights additionally had the very best first-week streams of the yr: 72.5m, once more beating Kinds’ figures of 53.9m.
On the day of its launch, Midnights broke global Spotify records for essentially the most streams of a single album in sooner or later.
Swift has additionally overtaken Madonna to set a brand new all-time UK chart file for the quickest succession of 9 UK No 1 albums of any feminine artist – though Madonna nonetheless has the file for essentially the most UK No 1 albums of any solo feminine artist, with 12 general. Swift is now second in that record, pushing Kylie Minogue into third place.
However regardless of her success within the UK she received’t be capable of replicate her domination of the Billboard Scorching 100: after 16 of the 17 songs on Ed Sheeran’s 2017 album, ÷, charted within the Prime 20, guidelines had been launched that imply that solely the three hottest songs of any album at the moment are eligible for the UK’s singles chart.
Calling a band “an establishment” can really feel like placing them out to pasture, critically. It will be extra correct to peg Hot Chip, now on their eighth album, as a perpetual movement machine, hardly ever faltering – a very fantastic instance of British engineering. It’s a shock, then, when this theoretically urbane digital outfit come to an abrupt halt as a result of their beast of a drummer has burst the pores and skin on his kick drum. And but right here is Scorching Chip percussionist Leo Taylor, greeting the information that he’s been taking part in too exhausting by leaping up and performing some double satan’s horns to howls of approval.
Scorching Chip have maintained a metronomic pulse on the coronary heart of British song-making for greater than 20 years, pairing Alexis Taylor’s candy vocals with a kaleidoscopic vary of percolating sounds. Over and Over was their first hit, in 2006. It stays not only a reworked reside staple, sooner and tougher than the unique, however one thing of a tenet for the band to reside by. Scorching Chip known as their 2010 album One Life Stand, partly to discover the great thing about dedicated relationships as distinct from fraught one-night stands: one other title-as-creed. They’ve by no means cut up up, directing any non-Chip energies into solo albums and file labels equivalent to Greco-Roman, co-frontman Joe Goddard’s facet gig. Each Taylor and Goddard have not too long ago put out standalone works: Taylor’s touching lockdown meditation, Silence, in 2021, and Goddard’s disco- and house- fuelled outing with Amy Douglas, Hard Feelings, earlier this 12 months.
Tonight, they arrive dressed all in white, aside from token black sheep keyboard participant Felix Martin; Alexis Taylor is sporting a water-resistant white cape over a sizzling pink Comme des Garçons windcheater, his buzzcut tinged pink by the sunshine present. The stage doubles as a synthesiser commerce present, an array of drugs punctuated by the odd cowbell and picket block, courtesy of percussion-leaning multi-instrumentalist Rob Smoughton. Scorching Chip’s music has usually drawn from home and funk, electro and synth pop, harnessing blithe dancefloor vitality to traditional pop melodies; if their data are good, their reside reveals are immersive. You’ll be accustomed to Scorching Chip’s fellow travellers by now, with the revolving door of touring band members they function with LCD Soundsystem, the way in which Scorching Chip recall everybody from New Order to Pet Store Boys whereas remaining immediately identifiable as themselves.

What’s much less mentioned is how they share with Gorillaz a really British love of classic US hip-hop and its supply supplies; how their membership savvy tallies with that of their schoolmate Kieran Hebden of 4 Tet, who not too long ago guested with Scorching Chip reside in New York. It bears repeating that Scorching Chip have been forward of the Covid-era disco reboot curve by just about a decade. They wrote a music for Dua Lipa in 2020 that they ended up preserving for themselves. That’s Straight to the Morning, which featured Jarvis Cocker on visitor vocals. (Cocker is because of be part of the band on evenings three and 4 of this four-night London residency; tonight, Goddard handles Cocker’s vocal components.) As with their penchant for disco, Taylor specifically has lengthy introduced a robust classic eyewear sport too, favouring engineer glasses lengthy earlier than everybody began trying as in the event that they had been working at Microsoft circa 1979.
Crucially, although, Scorching Chip’s adamantine consistency comprises simply sufficient variation to maintain your curiosity piqued. Simply while you suppose you recognize them, one thing occurs: a file just like the current Freakout/Release, for example, wherein the title observe goes a lot tougher than ordinary in direction of dancefloor catharsis, and Taylor sings about lust and “primitive therapeutic”. Or a music equivalent to Down, which is decidedly funkier than ordinary, with Taylor taking part in off numerous meanings of “down” (getting down, feeling down) because the bass syncopates everywhere. Or … they may puncture a kick drum. What occurs after this hitch, although, is one way or the other tremendously Scorching Chip. Half the band fall upon the equipment like a System One pit cease crew, veteran multi-instrumentalists serving to their techie with the spare.
Trying on, Taylor croons “Is it nonetheless damaged?” Naturally, the music that has silenced the equipment is known as Broken. A standout from Scorching Chip’s newest LP, it finds him attempting to resolve an emotional disaster. Phrases are insufficient. How do you truly assist anybody? Because the six-strong band deliver the occasion, Taylor’s vocal resonates with the tenderness of veteran chansonniers, like Neil Tennant singing Roy Orbison.
Tenderness and vulnerability have, in fact, lengthy been Scorching Chip staples. What’s new, maybe, is the depth of crisis-awareness, of mortality. Philippe Zdar, their collaborator, died in 2019. As Covid was breaking out the world over in 2020, Scorching Chip had been touring Australia. Rob Smoughton was taken to hospital with a life-threatening sickness and recovered; his bounciness tonight is very joyous to behold. The songs on Freakout/Launch – of which they play a beneficiant pattern – deal in nice half with the fallout of residing; of being caught in a single’s personal head, of being unable to hunt or settle for assist; about deep funks. Like a lot of the very best dance pop, Scorching Chip are as a lot about swabbing dancefloors moist with tears as they’re about persevering with the legacy of Kraftwerk. They will make everybody dance on a faculty night time; tougher and extra bruised than their mild-mannered fame suggests.
Indefatigably nice, Hot Chip have lengthy specialised in steady-state membership pop, powered extra by melancholy than abandon. The title track of their eighth album, the promisingly named Breakout/Launch, declares a shift in the direction of correct shit-losing catharsis. “Wild, beast, freakout, launch!” growldecoderoder as some stark electro-funk lurks beneath. A distorted guitar line completes the image of a band throwing well-appointed tastefulness to the wind, querying their very own love of music into the discount. Co-producers Soulwax are audibly in the studio, egging them on.
Spoiler alert: it Hots false promoting. Certain, some strides are made in the direction of messiness. On Down, the disco-funk album opener, singer Joe Goddard swaps his traditional advanced restraint for one thing like tongue-in-libidinalnality. However Onerous to Be Funky, a beautiful, downtempo glide that options the visitor vocals of Lou Hayter, as soon as of New Younger Pony Membership, nails Scorching Chip Hots dilemma with self-deprhumorg humour. “It Hots onerous to be funky once you Hotre not feeling attractive, ” Goddard notes. “And it Hots onerous to really feel attractive once you Hotre not very funky.”
Scorching Chip having produced a file for Ibibio Sound Machine final yr, you’ll have hoped a few of that band Hots capability to combine bolder components with cool manufacturing aplomb may need rubbed off. As a substitute, they continwatercolorand die by the watercolour synth wash. It Hots a superb job they Hotre masters of the shape – as Damaged, this album Hots crystalline ballad, proves.
Two many years after their formation, Hot Chip have just about achieved nationwide treasure standing for his or her playful, soulful, typically biting, typically lovelorn tackle dance pop. They’ve by no means slouched – and but their forthcoming eighth album, Freakout/Launch, is a standout in a listing not quick on them, crammed with full-blooded pop songs that widen – and darken – the band’s traditional scope.
That includes Canadian rapper Cadence Weapon, The Evil That Males Do touches on racial stress and violence in opposition to ladies, whereas Not Alone despairs at fallen male heroes: “It’s by no means the heroines that permit us down,” sings frontman Alexis Taylor. There are starker private lows right here, too, with tracks akin to Damaged, Responsible and Out of My Depth nodding to the sense of lack of management that many individuals felt in the course of the sharp finish of the pandemic.
Reuniting was key to Freakout/Launch: the band constructed a brand new studio, Calm down and Get pleasure from, in 2019 and 2020, and at last bought to come back collectively to jot down and document as soon as lockdown restrictions lifted. The concept was to seize their formidable reside vitality – particularly their beloved reside cowl of Beastie Boys’s Sabotage – in addition to to evoke the joie de vivre that the late French producer Philippe Zdar dropped at their final album, 2019’s A Bath Full of Ecstasy. That vigour factors in the direction of an in the end optimistic album, one designed to assist shimmy out the tensions of contemporary life and acknowledge the great thing about survival.
You may ask them about any of that, collaborating with Jarvis Cocker, Katy Perry and Ibibio Sound Machine, performing as holograms throughout lockdown, their contribution to the Late Evening Tales compilation sequence, how they wrote the best music of all time (Over and Over, sustain) – and anything you want – when Joe Goddard and Al Doyle sit for the Guardian’s reader interview subsequent week.

As the newest Covid restrictions elevate, music is within the air once more in Seoul. However in 2022, it’s not simply K-pop and western hits offering the soundtrack to South Korea’s capital. There’s one other sound lurking round virtually each nook.
It’s blaring from retailers’ transportable stereos at fruit and vegetable markets, and it’s sung at noraebang (karaoke) cubicles in Nagwon-dong. I hear it within the secondhand music shops of Euljiro, the place it’s piled from ground to ceiling in bumper-sized CD and cassette packages. Once I swap on the TV, it’s there once more – carried out on selection reveals and glitzy expertise competitions. The style’s stars mild up backstreets and skyscrapers on torn posters and digital billboards. “It’s like oxygen,” says the dance producer 250 of the pounding rhythms, low cost keyboard sounds and emotive vocal performances I hear wherever I’m going. “It’s all over the place.”
That is ppongjjak – a revitalisation of a century-old Korean pop style in any other case generally known as trot. Till just lately, it was common solely amongst senior residents, who take heed to it on mountain hikes and through intercity bus excursions (as depicted within the final scene of 2009’s Mom, by Parasite director Bong Joon-ho). Now it’s discovering a spot once more within the underground and the mainstream. This surprising resurgence is outwardly complicated for lots of the locals: one bar patron makes use of the phrase “embarrassing” to explain the style’s absurd mix of melancholy ballads and ecstatic, eurodance-style beats. However younger artists are integrating these questionable sounds into their tracks, and the revival is now threatening to interrupt Korea’s borders.

The identify comes from a easy rhythm that underpins the music: ppongjjak is an onomatopoeic time period that imitates the repetitive one-two beat, with the primary syllable signifying a bassy thump, the second a whipping snare. It’s dressed with easy melodies that make it simple to sing and dance to, with larger vocal tones delivered in a method generally known as kkeokk-ki(which suggests to flex, or break, the voice). The sentimental lyrics and happy-sad melodies, in the meantime, embody the emotion of han – a time period describing a sense of shared sorrow or lamentation. An area music video producer, Kim Kyuseo of Spire manufacturing company, casts the respective qualities of trotand present-day ppongjjak in Shakespearean phrases: “It’s like tragedy and comedy,” he says, emphasising the emotive vocal performances extra attribute of the previous, and the lunatic beats of the latter. “They dance their ache away.”
Neither consultants nor amateurs can agree on whether or not they’re, in reality, the identical factor or merely totally different strands of 1 style – however both method, the roots of ppongjjak will be traced to the early twentieth century, when an undivided Korea was occupied by Japan. Trot was derived from the foxtrot, says Alex Taek-Gwang Lee, a professor of cultural research at Kyung Hee College. The 2-beat dancing model was launched to Korea by Japan as a part of “a cultural phenomenon influenced by the jazz age in America” within the Nineteen Twenties. Because the ruling class opened giant dance halls throughout the nation (partly impressed by these present in Blackpool and different UK cities, says Lee), the native Koreans mixed it with the normal music of the working individuals – and trot was born.
The style has navigated a convoluted historical past ever since. It was accountable for Korea’s first pop idols, together with Nam Jin and Na Hoon-a, throughout the style’s heyday within the Seventies. A well-known trotsinger, Sim Soo-bong, was even current on the assassination of President Park Chung-hee in 1979; she had sung for the army dictator on the banquet held that night. However it has additionally been condemned on a number of events for the reason that late Nineteen Sixties, as varied governments tried to eradicate Japanese influences from society. Debate endures over whether or not trot’s sorrow – typified within the themes of well-known songs akin to Yi Hae-yeon’s Heartbreaking Miari Hill and Nam In-su’s Busan Station of Farewell – makes it inherently Korean, or whether or not the model is spinoff of the Japanese enka(a style maybe most recognisable to westerners from its use within the Kill Bill soundtrack).
By the Nineteen Nineties, younger Koreans have been feeling more and more optimistic and there was little place for the melancholy music related to the older technology. The recent sound of K-pop – influenced by dance, R&B and hip-hop from abroad – pierced the zeitgeist. However trotby no means went away, and within the late 2010s an surprising revival was catalysed by the debut of an X Issue-style tv expertise present during which contenders carry out within the conventional, sentimental model – certainly one of its episodes was watched by greater than one-third of the overall Korean TV viewers.
Listening to mega-hit single My Starry Love by Mr Trot winner Lim Younger-woong, I can’t assist however be reminded of Gareth Gates’s tackle Unchained Melody from the primary collection of Pop Idol. However Lim’s recognition is simple: he has greater than 1.3m subscribers on his YouTube channel, his face at the moment occupies a 10-storey video billboard within the thriving college district of Hongdae, and he’s as ubiquitous as BTS within the memento stalls of the market district Insa-dong.
Some corners of the press see this revival of trotcuriosity as merely a part of the “newtro” (a portmanteau of the phrases “new” and “retro”) development: a youth tradition phenomenon characterised by classic style, throwback graphic and inside designs, and the recognition of interval Ok-dramas akin to Mr Sunshine. However the trot trade has additionally turn into engaging for singers and musicians harbouring massive profession ambitions.
Lee explains that the “idol” trade of mainstream Ok-pop stars is “very restrictive. You have to have a pleasant look, be good at dancing, and it’s important to attend to the viewers and to advertising – it’s like being a supermodel or a goddess.” Alternatively, the extra area of interest trot or ppongjjak market (Lee makes use of the phrases interchangeably) “is a spot the place individuals who simply need to be an excellent singer or an excellent musician can give attention to the artistry”. It’s a degree emphasised by Korean stars akin to Lizzy, previously of Ok-pop woman group After Faculty. She launched a trot tune, Not an Easy Girl, as her debut solo single in 2015, telling MBN Star that yr: “Idol music is short-lived … I believed trot music would keep longer within the music market.”
It’s not solely reality-TV stars and mainstream artists who’re in on the revival. I come throughout the face of 90s “techno-trot” pioneer Epaksa, also referred to as Dr Lee, blown up on the facet of a wall within the buzzing district of Euljiro – a former manufacturing mecca now house to late-night bars serving beer and fried hen to patrons sitting on plastic chairs. He’s certainly one of a number of elder statesmen who’ve benefited from the ppongjjak resurgence, with new reveals and an album within the pipeline; I hear a monitor that sounds suspiciously just like his Monkey Magic blaring from a conveyable stereo that very same day.
Epaksa has additionally simply featured as a visitor on an album by one of many nation’s most enjoyable younger dance producers. Seoul-based 250 is finest recognized for creating beats for BTS, and producing Korean hip-hop icon E Sens. However on his debut solo album, Ppong (which playfully pastiches the stereotypical poses discovered on trotCD covers), he has created a forward-thinking hybrid of ppongjjak that embodies the inherent sorrow or disappointment of the style whereas additionally incorporating components of recent dance music.
“Ppongjjak music is commonly actually quick, virtually like drum’n’bass,” he says, likening the untethered dance kinds of Nineteen Nineties ravers to these of the ppongjjak connoisseurs. He namechecks Italian canzone andFrench chansonas kin to the style by their melancholic and nostalgic sounds. It shares themes with American nation music: “They’re lacking their house city.” And in its tacky basslines and “low cost and cheesy” sounds, it affords parallels to 70s and 80s Italo disco: “Giorgio Moroder’s Chase,” says 250, “is simply straight ppongjjak.” He’s proper: the pulsing duple rhythm, the emotive melodies, the dated synth sounds – they’re all there.
May a Korean cultural oddity akin to ppongjjak ever transplant within the west? It already has, albeit in small methods. Epaksa’s ridiculous music video for the 2000 monitor Space Fantasy noticed him posing in entrance of Massive Ben, Trafalgar Sq. and even the pyramids of Giza. And the Korea Tourism Group’s spectacular Feel the Rhythm spot – which performed on repeat at London East Asia movie competition in 2021, and has racked up practically 50m views on YouTube – highlights a musical efficiency by Korean band Leenalchi. The tune fuses alt-rock and conventional Korean pansori(folks) singing with an unmistakable cut-price ppongjjak beat.
However in 2022, maybe it’s 250 who has the best alternative – some may say hazard – in taking the style worldwide. Largely instrumental, Ppong sounds as if it have been designed to be a backing for a flexing trotsinger of any language to carry out over, and whereas the hyper-powered one-two beats sometimes recall the messed-up sounds of joyful hardcore, the wealthy, vibrant melodies on tracks akin to Bang Bus and Rear Window can’t assist however remind me of a discount bin Todd Terje, British indie-electro stars Metronomy, or Japanese digital music titans Yellow Magic Orchestra.
Two months on from the album’s launch, 250 has simply debuted his first present on esteemed London broadcasting station NTS Radio – and it’s packed to the rafters with trotand ppongjjak sounds, together with cuts from Nam Jin and Na Hoon-a. With Korean popular culture exhibiting no signal of slowing, who’s to say that ppongjjak – or, at the very least, some new bonkers hybridisation of it – gained’t be Korea’s subsequent nice exported development? In London, the karaoke cubicles are ready.
How does your Sunday begin? My youngsters wake me up about 7am, though each bone in my physique is saying, ‘It’s Sunday. You’re meant to sleep in till not less than 9.’
Is snoozing an choice? On Sundays we’ve a rule the place all of us simply get into mattress collectively. My five-year-old actually loves breakfast in mattress, however the one-year-old can’t but as it might simply destroy the mattress. I prefer to cook dinner crêpes on Sundays. My infant likes chocolate unfold, the child has some purée – and I’ve the leftover scraps.
Are Sunday morning hangovers now a factor of the previous? I used to drink on a Saturday evening, however I’ve began to not, because it simply doesn’t really feel value it any extra and I don’t need my children to suppose I don’t like them.
How totally different had been Sundays rising up in Hackney? Some days I wouldn’t stand up till 1pm. I used to work in bars, so all of the bar staff went out from 3am till 7am. I don’t know whether or not I look again wistfully, however it might be good to only get up naturally.
Do you eat out or cook dinner up a roast? I normally make a roast – rooster or lamb – as my infant has a nap at 12.30. My roast potatoes are notorious; they’re tremendous crunchy on the surface and actually gentle within the center, and really salty and oily.
Do you learn on Sundays? After they’ve gone to sleep, perhaps. I’ve simply completed Motherhood: A Manifesto by Eliane Glaser, which was sensible. It’s all about how patriarchal concepts are so ingrained in us that ladies are perpetuating them themselves. I used to be, like, ‘Oh my God, I try this!’
What are you bedtime rituals? I really like baths. I actually just like the odor of frankincense and Palo Santo. They’re fairly Catholic smells. I’m a lapsed Catholic, however these smells calm down me. I’ll usually be prepared for sleep by 11pm.

Whenever you sing and it’s your job, for those who get a chilly, it’s form of the tip of the world. I’ve by no means needed to cancel a gig as a result of I’ve been in poor health – to date, I’m touching wooden now – and if I’m on tour, I’ve garlic for every thing. Uncooked garlic, I’ll chop it up, put it in scorching water and drink it. Possibly stir in some manuka honey, apple cider vinegar, ginger, in a single disgusting concoction.
Oh, it must be manuka. If somebody simply tried to place a type of plastic bears in entrance of us … I don’t know what they measure it in – it’s just like the Scoville scale for chilli – however 20 is an efficient manuka. And for those who get a 40 or 60, you understand that’s actually good. I’ll simply have a teaspoon earlier than the present and perhaps one other earlier than the encore. I’m positive my dentist isn’t actually completely satisfied about it, but it surely offers you just a little enhance.
Rising up, we didn’t run out of cash, however we had no spare cash. My mum was cleansing homes after which she began working at a main faculty. Packed lunches in direction of the tip of the month would have barely completely different meals in. You might need a sandwich after which someday simply crackers and cheese. Then the final week of the month our packed lunches received actually posh as a result of we all the time received stuff from Marks & Spencer. I keep in mind saying to my mum, “Why did we all the time have Marks & Spencer packed lunches for the final 4 days of the month?” And he or she mentioned: “Oh, that’s when my paycheck could be operating out … however I had a Marks & Spencer bank card.” So out of the blue we’d have these fancy iced buns.
My largest meals coming of age occurred with music. All of a sudden there have beenthese individuals who have been older than me and had, in these days, a file firm funds to simply burn via. I keep in mind going to the highest of the Pompidou Centre in Paris and the starter was half a jacket potato with I couldn’t see any costs on the menu, as a result of not one of the numbers on the menu associated to what I might think about folks spending on meals. caviar. And I keep in mind our guitarist saying, “I’d prefer to have that as properly,” and the file firm girl was like, “No!” However on the finish I noticed the invoice and I used to be like: “Oh no, that was €180!”
Each occasions after I’d simply had my infants, I had them at house and being in a mattress for days/weeks, a extremely good good friend of ours who was once a chef made pistou [a cross between a soup and a stew, packed with vegetables and beans]. After I was at a low ebb, [my husband] Steve would simply give me three large ladles of it. I used to be so drained after I’d had these infants and I’d simply eat it. You recognize they are saying meals sticks to your bones? It was simply iron-rich gorgeousness.
I went to Stevie Surprise’s church in Los Angeles and we went forlunch [with him] to an Ethiopian restaurant. It was so fascinating watching an individual eat who doesn’t see, as a result of Ethiopian meals you eat together with your arms, dipping that skinny, spongy bread into these completely different piles. And it’s truly so subtle to eat together with your arms as a result of earlier than you place the meals in your mouth you’ve received a way of the feel, the temperature, the resistance, the dimensions and so forth. It was a approach of “seeing” the meals, not simply having one thing on a metallic fork and never understanding what it’s till it goes to your tongue.
Our band is absolutely into cooking: we have now an precise Crockpot on the tour bus. Individuals make dal and that lasts a couple of days and one of many band was once a chef. So we all the time eat properly and we’re all not 25, proper, so we will’t survive on beer and crisps.
My favorite issues
Meals I most likely eat approach an excessive amount of pasta, however a garlicky, fishy pasta is only a dream factor to me.
Drink Whenever you’re breastfeeding, it’s the deepest thirst conceivable. Possibly for those who stroll in a desert it’s worse. Being actually trustworthy, water tastes like water has by no means tasted earlier than. It’s essentially the most superb drink: silky, a bit candy.
Place to eat I like being in Tokyo, as a result of I simply really feel you may’t go improper there. The best way the fish has been sliced, it’s prefer it’s supplying you with superpowers and every thing.
Dish to make The fashion of cooking I love to do is sort of hands-off, actually. You recognize, the casserole world. I’m not excellent with the timing of stuff. I’m like, “Properly, that’s achieved, this factor’s chilly, this gained’t be prepared for half an hour …” I can’t pull all of it collectively. I actually admire individuals who try this.
