HYPE // NINE
Heat is a cool electro pop track from the Ecce, it’s not going to blow your mind but it’s certainly a catchy, heartfelt change of pace in year that’s been all but dismissive of the traditional electro indie movement.

BRINK OF THE CLOUDS
Art Is Hard Records have an upcoming compilation called Brink Of The Clouds, filled with the best upcoming Lo-Fi / Alternative bands from South West England. As far as compilations go, Brink Of The Clouds is incredibly solid, almost surprisingly so.
The release doesn’t come out until September, but when it does it’s headed your way in a digital download/T-shirt bundle.
Here’s...

Egyptian Hip Hop have a new single, the very 80’s and bass driven Moon Crooner. So glad these guys are maintaining the same level of quality with each release, which is sky high.

Restless People have crafted themselves one hell of a debut single to open with. Minus the tacky as fuck rave klaxons, Days Of Our Lives is a perfect Summer jam. Reminiscent...

HYPE // SEVEN
Unless you’ve been living under a rock or eight, you’ll know that 2010 is all about throwing endless Lo-Fi acts at us until everyone all but hates the genre. Bands like Sweet Bulbs are way up there as one of the best, but what the hell is going to happen to all these groups once 2011 rolls in? I just don’t see this genre resurgence (as heartbreaking as it is) being anything...

WHAT HAPPENED // DOG & PANTHER
I can’t think of any negative things to say about Dog & Panther.
Well, that’s not strictly true; my phobia of names that don’t instantly ooze cool rears its ugly head here once again, but that’s just wanton superficiality.
First impressions will invariably lead you to Death Cab For Cutie comparisons. And we’re not talking awful Twilight endorsing, only two...

Maggie Eckford is an Australian singer songwriter who hasn’t really broken through yet. Songs like For What It’s Worth make my wonder why the hell not. Heartfelt Indie Pop.

Wu Lyf’s new song is certainly a good one, and i’m sure most people have watched the music video already, but here it is to download. While not as epic sounding as Concrete Gold or Heavy Pop, it has a kind of tropical catchiness to it that compliments their existing sound well. Can’t wait for the album, I think these guys are one of the better bands to emerge of late,...
