  • Bio

    .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. Martin, Richard, Kerri, Mark and Craig are Absent Kid. Based in Colchester, Essex, they play an energetic brand of indie-pop. .. The fledgling Absent Kid got their first break winning the Diesel U-Music Award for Best New Rock act and began receiving press, notably in the NME, Kerrang and on Drowned in Sound. The band released debut mini-album ‘I Burnt Down the Family Business’ through legendary North London indie label Fierce Panda. To support the album the band opened for the The Subways, Art Brut, Kasabian and Queen Adreena and featured on both MTV2 and Radio One, as well as recording a session for XFM. .. Full length follow up 'Misadventure' was hailed as the bands finest work to date, combining crunching indie rock-riffs with dirty grooves and euphoric choruses. .. Now AK are back for 2010 with a clutch of new songs and a mischievous glint in their collective eyes. .. ...... .. Alternatively it can now be downloaded from iTunes too! .. ‘...a stratospheric amalgam of pop hooks and colossal guitars’ NME .. .. “…A hugely inventive collection.” 4/5 KERRANG! .. .. ”…an undeniable commercial sensibility that promises to keep the band on the radio map for some time to come.” MUSIC WEEK .. .. “…This is 25 minutes of old school indie rock music and consistently excellent old school rock music at that.” CLASH MAGAZINE .. .. “…A cacophony of styles and volumes, spitting spidery guitar lines one minute, then violent whirls of distortion the next. The only thing that’s consistent is the quality.” ROCK SOUND.. .. "Classic Indie Rock - they mean business" THE FLY.. .. "Bloody Brilliant..." DROWNED IN SOUND .. .. "Thoughtful intelligent noise pop" ROCK SOUND .. .. ''pure nuggets of joy that will have you dancing around your bedroom'' NOISY FANZINE .. p> .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Absent Kid - Shoot On Sight .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Absent Kid- Note To Self .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Absent Kid- I've Got Your Back .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

    Dear music supervisor,
    My name is dB Heard CEO of Not Only Street Records!

    Not Only Street Records distinguishes itself from other independent record companies through its marketing and promotional plan, Intense, calculated and relentless promotional campaigns
    we are contacting you because we would like to submit music to be considered in your regular music rotation programming.

    NOSR represents a complete roster of independent recording artist through the entire world.

    Are music genres ranges from hip hop, rap, r&b, urban, world beat, reggae, and others.

    At this this time I'd like to extend our introduction to:



    New Release:
    I Know Now & Drop Hit,s and Evrybodies Darling
    on
    Not Only Street Records

    The native-born Jamaican Marvin Anthony Burnett aka Sledgy was born in St. James at September, 27th in 1973.
    At the age of sixteen he came with his brother to Germany to stay with his mother and live a better life. Shortly afterwards young Anthony got down with rapping.
    To do music brings a lot of joy to him. Music is a great pleasure for Sledgy; he feels committed to make music.

    It helped him through his hard time after his entry into Germany which was totally foreign to him at that time.
    After he had rapped a long time for himself to take his mind off his worries, Burnett signed a contract with the label Power Jam Records.
    With conclusion of the treaty his music career begins.

    Under the name of Marvin Burnett he performs onstage (YOU) two times and at Funworld, Bodensee. Furthermore his music appeared on Radio K?ln and Radio 7.
    For two years he has been under contract to Power Jam Records which is known as GUMAK Media e.K. today.

    The Jamaican Burnett is also charitable. He gave many benefit performances, among others at K?lner Zoo, in a retirement home and not least at town hall in Cologne- Kalk.
