EYES come from Chicago and make glorious music for dancing that straddles the vibes of Ariel Pink and HEALTH. The type of band people might lie about having seen first time round once they make the cover of Plan B. You know, if they felt so inclined.
Skitanja, in spite of what the poster says, are actually from Bournemouth. They make scrappy, electronic bleep party pop music with guitar.
Shiu-Yeung Hui is the Chinese member of Japanese group Maher Shalal Hash Baz. He drinks quite a lot of neat vodka then takes to the stage to perform his wonderful, fractured, miniature songs using guitar and keyboard. An exercise in patience, an audience with Shiu pays off massively.
Elapse O are a death disco unit from Oxford. Imagine swimming the butterfly through a load of broken Swans LPs. That's what they sound like. Dig.

The Laurel Collective www. myspace. com/thelaurelcollective ***Just signed to Domino Records!*** “The Laurel Collective are 6 nice, affable young bachelors and two sick, ultraviolent delinquents who play a simmering stew of musical influences. ” – Channel 4
The Great Statesmen http://www. myspace. com/thegreatstatesmen ***XFM Unsigned/BBC6Music Unsigned WINNERS*** “The Great Statesmen live show is more than just a gig - it a full body workout with a massage at the end. Go and see them!” – Clubfandango
They Came From The Stars I Saw Them www. myspace. com/theycamefromthestarsisawthem “One of the highlights of my year, without a doubt. Visionaries follow their muse regardless of the world around them and that couldn't be more true of they came from the stars I saw them... Numbering as many as 30 in the past, they've now trimmed down to a more manageable four-piece, but their music is still as astonishingly catchy as ever, somehow combining krautrock, space rock, free jazz, soul and funk into a pure pop concoction... with brilliant titles and wonderful, hypnotic singalong tunes.... ahead of their time... John Kennedy on XFM and in Dazed Confused
White Man Kamikaze www. myspace. com/kamikazearmy “They got the voice of the Pistols and the sound of the Clash. It’s a dream combo and to hear is to believe!” Who’s Jack
Shimmy Rivers And And Canal http://www. myspace. com/shimmyriversandandcanal “Most likely to be mistaken for some kind of typo, Shimmy Rivers and and Canal have a bi-weekly show on Resonance FM and a great retro website. Can one band really sound like Nick Cave singing in the B52s?” Drowned in Sound
Thanks for taking the time to check out our stuff. We really enjoyed looking at your films. We especially love the short film for Dollboy. We've always felt that old cinefilm looks like recordings of dreams, and that film really brings that across.
