Oki Dog once played in a REAL toilet in London Fashion Week.
Oki Dog began at home of the pointy scuffed, Londons Trash(R.I.P).

Mama Shamone – THESE GUYS AREN’T PLAYING LIVE (except one acoustic) EXCEPT AT GLASTO FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR! http://www. myspace. com/mamashamone “Put Mama Shamone on at any venue and they are likely to take the roof off, this was one of the best live shows I’ve seen in years - certainly one of the best in London. In my opinion these guys are destined for greatness, it felt like I was witnessing history being shaped-something was just so right about what they were doing up there.” Vibe Bar
We Yes You No www. myspace. com/weyesyouno “We Yes You No sing about the end of the world, the end of everything. But in an apocalypse that would sound like this I would buy god’s last EP” – Big City Redneck
Language http://www. myspace. com/languageuk “"The verbosity of funk, the poetic twang of intelligent pop. The bridge between Franz Ferdinand and Smashing Pumpkins perhaps" – Bugbear

Big City Redneck Presents the third installment of our ongoing series (which have been gathering quite ridiculous momentum) of showcases for up and coming swellegant, magnificent and downright stupendous bands on Thursday April 17th (this thursday!!) at the Buffalo Bar in Islington.
The Laurel Collective www. myspace. com/thelaurelcollective “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 “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

Buffalo Bar 259 Upper Street Nr. tube: Highbury and Islington 21st February £6/£5 concessions Doors: 8.30pm – 1am
The Chap http://www.myspace.com/thechap “Like Underworld if they’d decided to be a lo-fi rock and roll combo instead of a stadium-selling dance act. Stunning, it’s ridiculous, but in a great way.” Vice Mag
The Guillotines http://www.myspace.com/headswillrockandroll “Snarling spunk-punkers The Guillotines come across like Gallows meeting the Rat Pack, with a flame-haired Lauren Bacall wielding a bass, outside a Brighton S&M shop psyching themselves up to buy leather gimp masks. Wanton sax appeal, voodoo rock'n'roll magnetism and growling dirty lounge” NME
Creepy Morons http://www.myspace.com/thecreepymorons “The thunderous blues crunch of The Creepy Morons first materialised in 2005 having risen from the ashes of Hot Tradition and The Beatings. I know its rubbish when I merely regurgitate information from a myspace, but when a band describes its influences as ‘Women, Drinking and Death’, and their sound as ‘Drunken monkeys assembling an Ikea butchers block’, I’d be daft not to.” Jon Hillcock, XFM
My mathematical glitchcore track "'Mountains', by Prince" is on MySpace this week, on the site of the label which released it. You can find it, & them here:
http://www.myspace.com/irresponsibleartists
The track was made using nought but samples from Disney with a Sega Megadrive and the marvellous Philips D6920 tape recorder.
