Daft Punk win best international group at 2014 Brits
Behelmeted French duo repeat their Grammys success with another prize at the UK MUSIC industry bash• See how the Brits unfolded with Tim Jonze's liveblogThe robots that conquered the world have conquered Britain, too. Fresh from winning big at the Grammys – where they took both the album of the year and record of the year trophies – the French duo picked up the International group award at the Brits.No helmets were removed, no faces were revealed – not least because Daft Punk weren't actually in attendance – but Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter were rewarded for a year of staggering success. Get Lucky itself has achieved scores of landmarks – it became the first million-seller released in 2013, the most streamed song in Spotify's history, and completed the hat-trick by being voted the Guardian's best song of 2013 by our team of MUSIC writers.

Random Access Memories, however, was received as if Daft Punk were returning heroes, keen to show the American EDM scene – which they had inspired – how the originators made DANCE MUSIC

Jessie J Alive – review
Jessie J certainly isn't lacking in personality herself – so why does hernew album sound socliched and stale?You can't really blame Jessie J for taking to the internet with the news that she had been in the studio with Pharrell Williams. Williams's stock is currently riding high. He co-wrote and performed on the year's two biggest singles: in the last six months, Daft Punk's Get Lucky and Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines have sold something like 16m copies between them. What pop starlet could resist the temptation to head over to Instagram and make a bit of a fuss about their collaboration with the man partly responsible?And yet, perhaps Jessie J should have thought twice about mentioning her sessions with Williams. If she hadn't, she wouldn't have been obliged to explain where the resulting songs were headed: "They're more for the American version of [Alive]", she said, adding that her US record label bosses "don't feel it's finished yet". You can't help but admire her candour, but promoting your new album by informing the world that the biggest and most powerful wing of your record company doesn't think your new album is good enough seems a fairly odd approach to the business of marketing one of the year's big new releases. Perhaps she thinks her British fans are too rabid in their devotion to care. Continue reading...

Deadmau5 fires back at Arcade Fires real instruments comments
Today, it's Canadian dance-music god Deadmau5 in a grudge match against Canadian indie-rock gods Arcade Fire. You may recall recently, when, during Arcade Fire's Coachella set, frontman Win Butler took a couple cheap shots at dance music's rise to prominence by, one, bringing some pretty rough Daft Punk imitators onto the stage with him to play a slowed-down version of "Get Lucky," and two, shouting out "all the bands still playing instruments at this festival." Well, Deadmau5, being the confrontational guy that he is, has fired back at the band on—you guessed it—Twitter, saying, "arcade fire needs to settle down. some dudes devote their lives to instruments, others to electronic composition by cpu, dafuqs yer problem?" among many other things.
