NEWS OF THE WORLD - GIG OF THE WEEK –If your looking for the next big thing to emerge from our Indie scene then look no further - this four piece have all the hall marks of something very special. Scotland’s answer to The Small Faces.

THE SUN – one of the talents for the year ahead, Top 7 bands to look out for this year!!

THE LIST – Chorus lead music that rocks the room.

GLASSWERK – Beats to make you move and guitar and drum licks compete for your dancing feet. Each track brings with it a hit of adrenaline that will put a smile on your face, this group have taken their influences and created their own identity.

LIVE MUSIC DIRECT – These guys have bags of charisma and the songs to back it up, within thirty seconds of their first song I was already jealous of what they had. Definitely a band to look out for!

XFM MYSPACE CADET – Winners

THE METRO – Upbeat, buzzy indie rock!!

IS THIS MUSIC? – Sharp. Musically and lyrically, that is. 'Friends Pretend' is a short burst of talented vocals and competent guitar!!! You’ll be singing the title line "things get so much better when there isn't any pressure" for hours 4/5.

MUSIC MART MAGAZINE – Fuelled by the twin guitars of front man Alan Kemlo and six string ace Colin McLaughlin their explosive live shows are creating an extraordinary buzz around Glasgow. A rock solid rhythm section - in the shape of drummer Matty Roberts and bass ace David Murphy - hasn't done them any harm either. The band kicked off 2007 by selling out King Tuts and the management team that steered Snow Patrol and Futureheads to success has since snapped them up. Now there's talk of major labels circling, drawn by cracking songs like ' Mess ' or ' Maybe Tonight ', which sound like this feisty four-piece have kidnapped The Buzzcocks' kitchen sink dramas and forcibly conjoined them with the raucous ladishness of the Small Faces. Gonnabes? Huge!

Hello. Sorry if this looks like spam.

Having released a couple of tuneful albums with theAudiologist and Soni Jimm since my last LP, "Fear of Mathematics", Section 27 Netlabel brings you "Wrpdata”, containing 14 tracks full of chunky, breathy and some would even say pleasantly broken breaks, some good-time-mind-fuck glitch, a few (thankfully blissful) orchestrated mixes featuring the talents of Pinklogik and theAudiologist (also acting as co-producer on this release) respectively, and ends sweetly with some beautiful spoken word poetry by the lovely aussie Cindel Waddington.

A delight on the sensory organs from start to finish, "Wrpdata" is available now for *free* download. Licensed by Creative Commons.

Have some.
