"On March 11th 2019 Secret Theory will be unleashing a brand new single, the previously unheard “Still On The Road (Chopper Riders Club Hellas)” It's a tight song featuring brilliant guitar riffs, compelling vocals and desert rock vibes, with a refrain that's a real earworm. "

Theirs was a mod-influenced pop that seriously influenced on the sound of Blur's earliest works.

Bromide - Magic Coins

"This single follows the album 'I Woke Up', released in the summer of 2018, and the ‘I Remember’ album previous to that. In that time, they have won over news fans including Gideon Coe at BBC 6 Music, who has called their music 'Fantastic' and says their latest single 'Two Song Slot' is 'a mighty fine tune', playing these tracks numerous times over several months."

Tiny Fighter - Tell Me

"Tiny Fighter offers an enticing mix of indie-rock and berserker chamber pop. Despite the staggering odds against them ever meeting, Therese Karlsson (a truck driver from Kalmar in southern Sweden) and Tim Spelman (a doctor from Melbourne, Australia) met in Stockholm and began collaborating in 2017.
Tiny Fighter quickly expanded into a 5-piece with the addition of Tommy Wilen, Marcus Wallberg and Robin Zimmermann, bringing all the dynamics and volume of their recorded material on to the stage."

Auld - Alilless

"Based in Kilburn, London, Auld was started by Thomas Pitts as a solo project. They currently perform as a 6-piece, with Pitts joined by Alan Giles, Brian Wortman, Rachel Hearne, Glen Giles and James Milner.
Genre fluid, Auld frames a story through the lens of indie pop, sometimes rock, and sometimes electro. They like a good cry and they like a good dance and they want you to join them."

Half Japanese - Forever In My Heart

"Half Japanese are Jad Fair, John Sluggett, Gilles-Vincent Rieder, Jason Willett and Mick Hobbs.
Their new studio album continues to be uncategorizable, joyous, detuned, quizzical, alluring, childlike, charming, innocent, questioning.
‘Invincible’ is a celebration of sound. It’s pop music for those outside of pop music. It has songs for those still bedevilled by one liners and abrasive melodies."

Ernest Moon - Bajesus EP

"Ernest Moon are Steven Doran and Brian Murphy, two English no-marks brought together by a liking for eggs on toast. Their sound is somewhat punky and has been described as pushy pop. They say they are "filling the gap between pretentious lyrical art and bog standard pop music". "

Howe Gelb - On The Fence

"It’s a chance meeting of the indie/alt country Sinatra lost in music, annotated by wordplay and set in a laidback lounge where rhyming couplets are teased by tongue twisters and an earthy ramble through familiar wonders."

SPC ECO - Fifteen

"An electronic musical maverick, Dean's style complements Berlin's vulnerable yet tender vocals. As a father and daughter, they explore their relationship and the world around them through music, creating heartfelt sounds to express the language of their souls and conversations that are often too difficult to be encapsulated by mere words."

Klammer - You Have Been Processed

"Hailing from Leeds, Klammer draws from the members' shared love for all things angular, dark, loud and melodic. Previously described as the love child of XTC and Gang Of Four, Klammer offer an enticing twist on the post-punk attitude, blending in elements of goth rock, punk rock and dark wave, all with dark pop sensibilities. Here you'll find plenty of hooks and a dark and edgy broodiness coursing through their sound."

Autumn-us - the fall (Broken RmX by William Faith)

"Between the lost promises of summer and the bitter austerity of winter lives the time between; the shorter, pallid days, the dying leaves, the melancholic reflection of time as it passes… This pensive time between has been evoked and pondered in the words of poets ranging from Yeats to Keats, and once again it finds sublime expression in the lush, passionate, melodic, dark pop of Autumn."

Noctorum - The Afterlife

"Named for the village Noctorum, located near to their childhood homes on The Wirral (near Liverpool), Dare and Marty liked its association with night and its Latin derivation. This collaboration has an eclectic focus, making the quiet loud and vice-versa, singing words that might be spoken and playing indoor instruments that should be heard outside. It has to be imagined to exist."

Thurston Moore • Klangfarbenmelodie..Extract

"On this live recording, Moore and Surgal deliver a blistering noise set, in keeping with the aesthetic of New Zealand noise label Corpus Hermeticum, who released the original CD. This recording was the start of a budding collaboration between Moore and Surgal that saw them release music together again in 1996, 2000, and 2015, not to mention their joint release with Beck in 2000."

Anthony Reynolds - Cries and Whispers

The Room in the Wood - 'Time Machine'

"We went in the studio to record some tracks and came up with 'Mars (Won’t Save Us)', which was a riffy departure from most of our debut album. Lyrically it’s a flat statement that Mars is not a viable option for emigration," says Dave Jackson.

Brim Liski - Duels

"Brim Liski presents a blend of electro, goth and future pop that is slightly gazey. This is a mixture of the diverse sounds both artists bring to the table, becoming something a bit different than the typical electroclash that is currently out there.
Their music is inspired by epic sounds you might imagine occurring in the cosmos. This is dark, limitless night music perfect for driving down an endless moon drenched highway."

K Michelle DuBois “Love and Only Love”

"I present NEIL YOUNG's 'Love and Only Love', a superb college-rock painted version by Atlanta's K MICHELLE DUBOIS, formerly of 1990's band Ultrababyfat and 2000's Luigi, and also currently with Parsons Rocket Project. The accompanying video was created by Laurie Garner, featuring Dubois' laying down her own interpretation of this Neil Young classic against the backdrop of Sedona, Arizona."

Donna Zed - Enough Years

"This song is close to her heart because she talks about toxic relationships and the obsession or dependence that can develop towards another person. Nowadays, we can more easily maintain a toxic obsession with someone or something (hello technology) than a decade ago."

What Do You Call That Noise ?

"From the editor of The XTC Bumper Book of Fun for Boys and Girls comes a musical exploration of one of the most essential pop groups of the 20th century. In this compelling 228-page book, some of the world's leading musicians and keenest fans come together to discuss what makes XTC so very special."

Twilight Fields - Song From The Age of Ruin

"Twilight Fields is the solo moniker of singer-songwriter Allister Thompson, who single-handedly handles all writing, playing, engineering, mixing, mastering for this project, in addition to designing everything himself from his home studio in North Bay, Ontario.

'Songs from the Age of Ruin' is a warning to the present and an apology to a possible future. This uneasy but compelling song cycle begins with the bombing of Hiroshima and absurdities of the atomic age and proceeds to tackle such difficult topics as homelessness and economic inequalities ('Lazarus'), the evils of populism and political repression ('Demagogue', 'Taken Away'), the toxicity of social media communication ('Offended'), animal rights ('The Animal’s Song'), and the utter stupidity of war ('Soldier Song'). It concludes with a three-part “climate change suite” ('Loss', 'Barren Planet', 'Why Did We Do It?') that lays bare the tragic human consequences of catastrophic climate change."

Freudz Couch - Freedom

"Their first new single with their new label ‘Freedom’ is now released under 7hard and the band is in the process of completing the new LP to be titled ‘Psycho A’ with a 2019 release date."

ShapeShiftingAliens - Fade Away

"Fade Away is about a civilization and a world on the verge of collapse as a result of the endless drive for greed and power, but this song is also about the temporary nature of everything nowadays. The accompanying video perfectly reflects this thematic.
Niklas Rundquist created, produced and directed the video, eerily bringing the lyrics of this dystopian song to life."

Auld - Mainstream Music

"London-based electronic collective Auld present their new single 'Need Her Still'. Slated for release on Friday, January 25, this is the first single to be release from their forthcoming debut album 'Mainstream Music', which is out in mid-March.
Comprised of 10 tracks, this long-play is loaded with easy yet brooding, alternative, electronic pop with guitars interwoven. While 'Mainstream Music' was recorded over the summer of 2018, some of the songs date back as early as 2012."

I Am A Rocketship - Mind Grafitti

"I Am a Rocketship merges cool Scandinavian vocals, pop hooks and a dash of experimental sounds. They write, record and create art and videos without other contributors. Layering dark lyricism and fuzz guitars over pop grooves, they create a notably attractive hybrid sound. Their music is ideal for dancing the night away on an ancient sailboat manned by robots, lost at sea. The 'Mind Grafitti' album follows their debut long-play 'Mission Control', released in 2016."

Pas Musique - The-Phoenix

"Pas Musique a four piece consisting of Jon V Worthley, Michael Durek, Jesse Fairbairn and Robert Pepper, pursuing the musical elements of electronic, experimental music with krautrock undertones. Pas Musique have collaborated with many great musicians, including Faust, Rapoon, ZEV, Philippe Petit, HATI, Chester Hawkins, Jim Tuite and many more."

Cabinet of Millionaires - Theresa

"All the way from Huddersfield, Cabinet of Millionaires bring a scathing attack on the austerity policies of the UK’s Conservative Party government, referencing the Windrush scandal, the Grenfell Tower tragedy, and failure to take in enough refugees (whilst selling arms), not to mention the dismantling of the country’s National Health Service."

Phonseca - Wait For Me

"After playing synths in bands around Bristol’s eclectic music scene, with styles as diverse as Rock, Britpop, Shoegaze, Psyche and House, Matthew followed a more minimal Ambient/Electronica direction. His training as a classical pianist also had a subtle influence on the sound, which at the same time, led to composing library music where his work has been synchronised on primetime TV like BBC1’s 'The One Show', Channel 5 programs and national TV in Poland and Romania.
During this time, after an inspiring trip to Barcelona’s Sonar Festival, he began to produce music which developed into the album."
