The time has come. Finally.

Thank you, Junkie XL.

This is the moment lots of you have been waiting for.

If you were looking for this week's guilty pleasure, I think I might have found just the right track for you.

When The Neptunes' Chad Hugo and Pharrell Williams get together, they create a little bit of musical magic. I have been grooving to N.E.R.D.'s "Everybody Nose" ever since it was first leaked to the airwaves a few months ago. It is a banging pop R&B track that is dominated by spaced out sounds effects, fierce rhythmic syncopation, a sharped-edge bassline and soulful production stylings that very much define The Neptunes' distinct sound.

Morgan Page is one of the most sough-after DJ/producers of the moment who has remixed tracks for marquee artists like Nelly Furtado, David Bowie, Coldplay and Stevie Nicks. Tomorrow, March 25, he will release his new artist album, titled "Elevate," on Nettwerk Records.

The D� are hailed as one of the hottest new indie bands to emerge from France in years. Their single "On My Shoulder" is a smash hit overseas and has been topping the French pop charts for weeks. The song is taken from their debut album "A Mouthful" that has received raving reviews after its release earlier this year.

Special ArjanWrites.com correspondent Brian Burgess was one of the lucky few to attend a special Duffy showcase at the Maritime Hotel in New York City last night. Following on the heels of her successful gigs at SXSW in Austin last week, Duffy took her refreshing brand of soul pop to an adoring crowd in the Big Apple. Read on for Brian's full report.

Emerging Australian singer Sandrine gives pop music a unique spin of her own. Inspired by everything from gospel to The Rolling Stones, her debut album "Dark Fades Into The Light" is filled with earnest and mid-tempo gems that are reminiscent of sixties style songwriting spiced up with a little bit of neo-soul.

Check out a really excellent remix of Kenna's pop R&B stomper "Out of Control (State Of Emotion)" that was put together by the soundboard wizards of Remix Artist Collective.
