ARTS: Yelle – Safari Disco Club

 

Monday, May 9th, 2011

 

I’m by no means fluent in French, but I know my feel-good tunes when I hear them! Enter ‘Safari Disco Club’, a soundtrack to your summer just waiting to be played out along side beach parties, living room raves (complete with home-made foam machine) and night drives in the tepid summer air. Yes, it’s sung entirely in French with the exception of a bonus remix track, but that doesn’t make it incomprehensible if you’re not Pepé Le Pew. Fun transcends the language barrier with this album. You’ll probably make more sense of these lyrics than Lady Gaga’s newest export anyway. Plus they toured with Katy Perry on her UK tour earlier this spring, bringing the exposure Yelle needs to make it big here on the summer circuit.

NEWS: Union seek legal advice over QUB Student Rentals

 

Tuesday, April 26th, 2011

 

A letting agency in the South Belfast area, called QUB Student Rentals, has raised alarms in the Students’ Union.

The company is completely unrelated to the university which VP Welfare Adam McGibbon says may mislead students.  He says, “It’s important to underline that ‘QUB Rentals’ have nothing to do with Queen’s or the Students’ Union, and students shouldn’t be fooled into thinking that their name implies any extra security or reputability than any other letting agent.”
