Currently Sweden's hottest export, THOSE DANCING DAYS combine "Sweet as apple-pie pop" with a devilishly sassy Northern Soul and it's this unique combination that has the got the whole of the UK falling over itself and for good reason too!
The subtle dynamics in their songwriting of JOHN and JEHN and the balance between chaos and beauty and the mastery of heartbreaking melodies Expect beautifully skewed hymns in the key of Serge Gainsbourg. http://www. myspace. com/johnjehn
Wakefield's THE RESEARCH are makers of fun, but also write songs that are like punches in the stomach that knock the wind out of you but afterwards you agree that you feel much better for it. www. myspace. com/theresearch

Kling Klang
I totally buzz off Kling Klang. Fat electro krautrock riffs and landscapes get channeled through amiable scousers. http://www.myspace.com/klingklang
listen to Heavydale
Quack Quack
Yorskhire's top semi-pro rock band create pulsing rhythmic grooves lovingly fermented from the finest drums, synths and bass they could get their hands on. A very special vintage. http://www.myspace.com/thisisquackquack
listen to Conversations
Minghe Morte
Musicianship of the highest calibre which will blow your head clean off. With drums, fucked up sax and bass coming together for infectiously violating rock grooves, tender atmospheres and aggresive spasmodic climaxing. http://www.myspace.com/minghemorte
listen to i Punch U Coz i Like U
Curious Voice Duo
Two lovely girls from LIMA* who know their voices. Performing within semi-structures with an innocent improvisational flair, entwining their heavenly voices in gorgeously melodic dialogue. With no added vocal effects. http://www.myspace.com/elisabethnygaard http://www.myspace.com/mariajardardottir
listen to Elisabeth's 'Clinical Waste' here : http://www.myspace.com/underthestairsstudio listen to Maria's Part 5 Joy of Liberation on her site

Hey! Twas great to see you too! It's all about the haircuts in winter... and grey cardigans hehe. Well there may be a small possibility that I'll be back on Saturday, just cos I'd be kicking myself permanently if I missed the last chance to see you ever. x
Hiya Matt! Sadly I can't make it up for the Christmas bash but just heard that you're now doing an early show on Saturday. Will be seeing yer face then! (And finally getting that piece o' plastic.) x
