How much are we missing new music from Years & Years<\/strong>? It’s hard to believe that “Communion<\/strong>“, is two years old already isn’t it?<\/p>\n

How about a track that sounds quite a bit like it was made by Years & Years<\/strong> to bridge the gap?<\/p>\n

Those of you in the UK probably remember Marlon Roudette<\/strong> for his mega 2014 hit “When The Beat Drops Out<\/strong><\/a>“, because a lot of hype was made out of the fact, that he was the second musician to sign to Simon Cowell’s<\/strong> Syco label, that wasn’t a Britain’s Got Talent<\/strong> – X Factor<\/strong> act. The track went on to rack up millions of streams across digital media. Unfortunately, even though moderately successful, I think the hype that circulated at the time didn’t necessarily do its job properly. Leaving Marlon better remembered in the UK as the son Cameron McVey<\/strong> and step-son of Neneh Cherry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

When Marlon Roudette’s name peeped up in my inbox a few days ago, I was intrigued to hear how his sound had developed if he was setting his sights on having another attempt at capturing the UK attention. There’s a big clue at the beginning of this review new single “Ultra Love<\/strong>“, sounds quite a bit like a Years & Years, especially in the chorus. Having said this, I like this song and for people like me who can’t wait for Olly, Emre and Mikey to give us something new, Marlon’s “Ultra Love<\/strong>“, isn’t second best, or a filler, it’s just as good. Could we at the very least just have a remix with Olly Alexander guesting on it? It so needs to happen.<\/p>\n
