"...Exhilarating instrumental play combined with sexy vocals and just the right amount of attitude... Santa Rubine - No-Title Magazine
"If there's any justice in the crazy world of electro pop, this won't be the last you hear about Rochelle and fingers crossed one day in the not too distant future I'll be able to use one of my favourite phrases - "Yeah, I saw them before they were even signed." Rachel Wilson - LeedsMusicscene.net
"Strewn with filthy bass-driven beats and sweeping synths, 'Party Girls' sounds like Eighties Madonna fronting a darker New Young Pony Club. A combination that sounds like it'd work fantastically well - and it does... making 'Party Girls' an instant floorfiller." John Bishop - ThisIsFakeDIY.com
"Everything in their set from 'Fer De Lance' to 'Party Girls' is packed full of melody and danceable hooks alongside slicing synth goodness that will keep the rockers a' rockin' and the raver's pounding fists in the air" Dom Smith - Rocklouder.co.uk
Since the late 2008 release of their club friendly – Norman Cook endorsed limited edition debut single - ‘Fer De Lance’, which garnered them much critical acclaim, a major Channel 4 TV performance and plays from key tastemakers at Radio 1, XFM and NME tv, Rochelle have been hard at work with leading electro production and remix duo Manhattan Clique on the follow up cut.
The first fruit of the weeks spent in the Manhattan Clique seaside studios is ‘Chin Up’, a tune that’s already had it’s Radio One debut via the Andy George remix on Pete Tong’s ‘In New Music We Trust’ show. And with two other Radio One plays following in swift succession, Rochelle are fast becoming the one to watch on blogspots in the know. A second remix by one half of Partyshank and hot as shit remixer of the moment A1 Bassline is about to hit the street and is sure to cause a ruckus on dancefloors everywhere.
Having worked with a wide array of artists including Mirwais, Moby, Goldfrapp, Fischerspooner, Ida Maria and Katy Perry, plus the small matter of winning a Grammy for work with Kylie, Manhattan Clique craft the ultimate blend of pop perfection and filthy electro stylings that sum up Rochelle’s perfect sound. Delivering beautifully crafted, hook laden pop songs with a dirty electronic edge that make you wish you’d been a teenager in a John Hughes Movie, Rochelle are mapping out the future of British pop music with a twist.
To add visual fuel to the fire, Rochelle persuaded party pals and award-winning director Lucy Tcherniak to make the video for the single, producing a visually and creatively stunning clip that takes Rochelle and ‘Chin Up’ to the next level.
As a three piece, Rochelle deliver a merry-go-round of musical prowess when it comes to their live performances. With drums, guitars, keyboards (and even a Keytar when the setlist and stage permits), percussion and vocals coming from all three members of the band, live shows have been exciting crowds at club nights, venues and festivals across the UK since the beginning of 2008 – and 2009 looks like it’s shaping up to be even more hectic for Rochelle.

As you may or may not be aware SoundARC hold a charity gig every year at Club 85 in Hitchin in aid of the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, and this year we are going to try something a little different from previous years.
This year we are going to take over the club and host 37 acts in one weekend putting full bands upstairs and acoustic acts downstairs in an event that we are calling ARCfest!
It all starts on Friday 4th December at 7pm and then continues on through Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th from 12pm-11pm
As well as raising money for the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, ARCfest will showcase all the different genres of bands that we at SoundARC have come across over the last 4 and a half years. Over this weekend a lot of the acts that you will see don’t get a chance to play a great local venue like Club 85, So as well as hearing new music you will see all manors of genres and styles from acoustic - Metal - Indie - Rock - Punk - Electro - Ska - Funk - Hip Hop/Rap - Alternative - Rhythm & Blues - Reggae - Grunge and loads more that I cant remember!
Je n’sais pas si t’es au courant mais en 2010 c’est la fin du monde !!! Alors profites en vite, sors toi les miches de ton canapé et viens assister à nos messes d’enfer. Une chance ultime de sauver ton âme d’un paradis chiantissime

Described as: 'like Soulfly if Trent Reznor were part of the band,' their debut album "There's No Profit in Truth", mixes the pent up frustration of acts such as Rage Against The Machine with the raging, highly charged riffs of classic Machine Head. Good, honest, politically aware and highly charged Metal at its best...
A mixture of Disco House, Electro and Synth Pop. Includes promo tracks from Galactik Knights and a Kanye West remix. Presented and mixed by Glenroy-Terence.
After blazing shows at Evolution 09, Camden Crawl, Cockermouth Rock Festival & Deathdisco, Viva City headline their "Have You Ever Felt So Messed Up?" single launch party at The Macbeth, Hoxton, London on Monday 27 July.
