Leaving the House Foreign Office
www.myspace.com/foreignofficemusic
Wow, i had to look up the band that these guys reminded me of from the 80′s, and am amazed to say it was Johnny Hates Jazz fused with a kind of Level 42 breeziness that lifts it above many of these 80′s recycle bands. Nice one Foreign Office.

They Don’t Speak For Me I Am Blackbird
www.myspace.com/iamblackbirdmusic
Kinda like Django Django & Elbow putting on a benefit for disaffected yet still optimistic Zutons fans with a Mariachi fixation. The whole ep has 4 great tracks on it.

Heartbeat David’s Lyre
www.myspace.com/thisisdavidslyre
We just love this guy here, so why not offer up his latest slab of pop perfection with a nod to Friendly Fires & all the charm of a warm July breeze.

Liars King Antics
www.myspace.com/kingantics
Low slung guitars, piping keys, echoing vocals and an overall feeling of epicness make for an interesting introduction to these new boys on the block.

The Deepest Cellar Matt Henshaw
www.myspace.com/matthenshawmusic
You start of thinking ah, Sexx Laws era Beck, then in comes RegiiMental with his crisp MC skills and bump alongside Henshaw’s soul boy vocals and it all becomes a big ass shaking block party.

Gonna Find Boyfriends Today Myles Cooper
www.myspace.com/mylescooper
Charming in its seeming simplicity, a closer listen reveals all manner of synth inflected pop nonsense going on, all held together by Myles’ rich vocals and the always popular spot of choir chorus.

Nevermind, Nevermind Benji Compston
www.myspace.com/benjic
There’s a Nick Drake feel to the guitar playing, and a depth that matches Frightened Rabbit’s or the Mumford’s, along with a number of really rather good acoustic songs on his profile.

Emily Navajo Youth

If a young Patrick Wolf got involved with Erasure on the dancefloor whilst PSB provided gravitas, this is what it’d sound like.

Freak Out Katy Shark
www.myspace.com/katyshark
This might be a young lady with a spiky guitar, but she’s more Dead Kennedys than Kimya Dawson, all ominous chords and distanced vocals.

Rotorvator Blues Episonic
www.myspace.com/episonic1
A glory of dissonant guitars, overblown vocals and a driving, weirdly melodic,industrial dirge make for a challenging introduction to this band.
