TRACKS OF THE WEEK

Jamie Cullum - Live in Ibiza
Not the most obvious name to associate with Ibiza. However, he really struck a chord this summer when he appeared on Pete Tong's show performing White Island classics Everybody Loves the Sunshine and Where Love Lives. Both tracks are available to download from Monday. www.jamiecullum.com

SNEAK PREVIEW

Damien Rice
As a result of a long promotional campaign for his debut album, O, new material has been a long time coming. Stunning piano ballad 9 Crimes will be November's comeback single. This Australian blogger is offering a peek.

IN THE NEWS

Sony Ericsson M-BUZZ
On Monday, Sony's M-BUZZ service goes live, the company's first attempt at an online music store. It's more low-key than iTunes, concentrating on flagging up music by unsigned bands, and will initially only be available for use with their W850 and W950 Walkman phones. www.sonyericsson.com/m-buzz

THE BUZZ

Mika
A Beirut-born pop singer with a four-octave range; comparisons to Freddie Mercury and the Scissor Sisters are already flooding in. He won't be pigeonholed by his double-A-side debut single, available in download stores now. Relax (Take It Easy) is a modern house track, while Billy Brown is a jaunty retro showtune.

THE SITE

Metacritic
When one publication's album reviews are not enough, smart consumers turn to Metacritic. Using a complex system of grading, they collate reviews to work out a score out of 100 for albums, films, books and more. Musicians currently scoring well include Bob Dylan, TV on the Radio and Bonnie "Prince" Billy. www.metacritic.com
