ELLA HENDERSON
Chapter One (Syco Music)
This Grimsby teenager came sixth on The X Factor two years ago, despite being hailed as the best singer. One senses her elimination suited Simon Cowell, who has teamed her with a posse of co-writers. Her voice is supple Hard Work is a highlight but this debut has a surfeit of power ballads.

JESSIE WARE
Tough Love (PMR)
Ware's first album, Devotion, was a strong debut. The South Londoners second effort is more exuberant, but her signature sound subtle grooves and understated vocals is intact. She echoes the sheen of Sade on Sweetest Song, while Say You Love Me, written with Ed Sheeran, might give her a hit.

HOZIER
Hozier (Island)
Andrew Hozier-Byrne aka Hozier fronted a blues band in his teens, and that sound is a key influence on a debut that topped the charts in his native Ireland. Hoziers voice is gritty and his guitar work stripped-down and dirty. Take Me To Church packs a punch, while Jackie And Wilson nods to the Celtic soul of Van Morrison.

ROYAL BLOOD
Royal Blood (Warner Bros.)
Striking a balance between the garage-rock of The White Stripes and the heavier styles of young British groups like You Me At Six, Worthing duo Royal Blood have built a thunderous wall of sound for a simple, two-piece band. Singer Mike Kerr and drummer Ben Thatcher race through these ten tracks in 32 minutes, echoing the rocking drawl of Muses Matt Bellamy on Out Of The Black, but adding bluesy light and shade on You Can Be So Cruel.

BASEMENT JAXX
Junto (Atlantic Jaxx)
So, this is what happens when the rave rulers of yesteryear grow up. Five years after their last album, South London duo Felix Buxton and Simon Ratcliffe return with a hugely enjoyable dance record that sticks to traditional strengths pumping house and disco rhythms, steel drums and samba-style trumpets while adding impressive maturity: Power To The People is celebratory; Love Is At Your Side a heart-warming hymn to Simons young daughter.

Guardians Of The Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 1 (Hollywood Records)
In the summer blockbuster Guardians Of The Galaxy, a battered cassette of hit singles from the 1970s and 1980s provides displaced earthling Peter Quill with an emotional connection to his old life after he is abducted by aliens. Away from the big screen, the same songs make up one of those soundtracks that also works brilliantly as a compilation and in racing towards the upper reaches of the compilation albums chart, the record is also proving one of the cult hits of the summer.

ARIANA GRANDE
My Everything (Republic)
With her recent single Problem one of the hits of the summer, pop princess Ariana Grande now has the clout to attract A-List collaborators. The former Broadway starlets second album features rappers Iggy Azalea and The Weeknd [correct] and a romantic ballad penned by Harry Styles. With such a potent supporting cast, Grande often plays second fiddle, but she does display the breathy soulfulness if not the power and range of her idol Mariah Carey.
