18 Months

先后荣获NME音乐奖「Best Dancefloor Filler」肯定，2012年更分别凭着与小天后蕾哈娜合作之全美10週冠军单曲〈We Found Love〉拿下MTV音乐录影带大奖「Video of the Year」、全英舞曲榜冠军单曲〈Feel So Close〉获得「Best Electronic Video」两项大奖的肯定，来自苏格兰的顶尖流行溷音师/製作人潜心酝酿整整18个月，终于在今年底发行个人第三张瞩目新作《18 Months》。

自2004年透过社群网站Myspace发表个人溷音，2007年于Sony Music发行首张专辑《迪斯可之王 I Created Disco》以来，不仅深获澳洲天后凯莉米洛钦点参与专辑《X》製作，量身打造出英国金榜Top10单曲〈In My Arms〉及〈Heart Beat Rock〉等畅销作品，近年更陆续受邀在Jamiroquai、Mary J. Blige、Scissor Sisters及Cheryl Cole等人的专辑中担任製作/溷音大任，2011年推出专辑首支暖身作〈Bounce〉，请来前卫节奏蓝调歌姬Kelis跨刀合作，缔造澳洲3白金、苏格兰舞曲金榜冠军，英国流行/舞曲金榜Top2的佳绩，接连的单曲〈Feel So Close〉及有美国节奏蓝调才子Ne-Yo华丽献技之〈Let’s Go〉，亦延续其不凡气势，再度双双夺下全英舞曲榜冠军，而为小天后蕾哈娜作嫁的〈We Found Love〉，更一举拿下全美告示牌单曲榜10週冠军纪录，缔造个人生涯最佳的排行销售成绩，也让此张全新作品《18 Months》更加令乐迷引颈期待。

专辑其它如邀请芙萝伦丝机进份子个性女主唱Florence Welch献声〈Sweet Nothing〉，潮流又快意的Synthpop，让人心情大悦；荣获2010年BBC「流行新声音」冠军、全英音乐奖「评审首选大奖」肯定的迷幻电音精灵Ellie Goulding，则为〈I Need Your Love〉带来青春少女般的甜美诠释；进口豪华盘CD特别加收包含〈Bouncce〉、〈Feel So Close〉及〈We Found Love〉等共13首独佔不间断溷音辑，苦等的18个月，绝对物超所值。
