The Dirty Nil - "Cinnamon" - 2014
The Dirty Nil wanted to relay this message to you:
"We lied about something with this brand new single. What would we lie about? The Dirty Nil would lie about the amount of drink tickets the venue has already given us, finding a dead body, their guitars being made of fudge, being body snatchers, turning down our amps, our true concern for the feeling of others, being compulsive liars, and really a million things.
But none of those lies apply to the new single.
Satan told us to, Jesus told us to, your mom told us to."
Parkwave - Metropolitan Single - 2014
Impose Magazine said about them: “The energetic instrumentals are accompanied by a repeating refrain: "Soon this wave will strike us down again." "Wave" is a preview of the debut—and in all likelihood, more masterfully recorded—promo that Park Wave is putting out soon.”
They have been recommended by Emerging Indie Bands (“The audience finds themselves tapping out the beats as the up-tempo music bounces across the room in tightly woven sequences.”) and The Blog That Celebrates Itself comparing them to Gang Of Four, The Cure and Franz Ferdinand.

Haircut - Sweatshop - 2014
Have really been liking this Melbourne labels music... It is guitar based, slacker orientation, all good. Sometimes the summer months demand simplicity, Haircut got that! Clean strings, steady melodies and deadpan vocals all amount to some pretty nice music in my ears.
Sunshine Faces - TEENAGE PRAYER - 2014
"Sunshine Faces is a (pop/rock) musical project out of Chapel Hill, NC"
Has a lot of Electrelane influences in the styling of songs; a two track release -
sweet twee dream pop!

Lobo Marino City of Light - 2014
Lobo Marino is a mix of tribal, folk and world music featuring the harmonium, drum and various other unique instruments and voices. At its core it is the musical response to the continuous travels and ongoing spiritual journey of its members.
It all started with a harmonium.
Three years ago we added the harmonium to our band and began to play kirtan, sacred hindu chant music, to honor the instrument's history.
The music had a profound effect on us and our audience.
We wanted to learn more about the ancient songs we were singing so we studied yoga and meditation at an ashram in Virgina called, Yogaville.
www.yogaville.org
Our next journey was to India. We spent a month living in the city of Varanasi, which was once called "Kashi" or "City of Light".
While there we recorded music and chants from the streets, which we have incorporated into this album.
We also volunteered at our friend Ravi's music and arts school, which strives to help children rise out of poverty through music and education.
100% of online sales will go to this school

Sheron - Ghost Hopes - 2013
Sheron is the solo project of Modern Rivals' bassist Andrew Sheron, and - at least from the preview track 'Keyser Söze,' streaming below - it sounds nothing like that band. The instrumentiation alone - featuring an oud, an octave violin, the coke box guitar, tuvan throat singing, a grand piano, and at least half a dozen voices in harmony - speaks volumes of what you can expect from this project. The single blends a rather cerebral Western songwriting style with exotic sounds and arcane sounding arrangements, developing from a verse as intimate as a whisper to a tense finale with tribal percussions and throat singing. The result is a track that sounds at once existentialist and mystical.
