Shervin Iainez Rose Cousins is not a new artist. The Charlottetown by way of Halifax artist has been releasing music for the better part of a decade and I've technically heard her before as she's guested on any number of Maritime-born records including Joel Plaskett's, but I'd not heard any of her own material until her third full-length album We Have Made A Spark , released at the end of February. And clearly that's been my loss. It's not a record that stops you in your [...]

'Mr Hollywood' is the debut single by The Magic. The band are made up of brothers Geordie and Evan Gordon, from small town Guelph, on the outskirts of Toronto. The track takes in syncopated disco rhythms, languid 80s funk, and FM pop - a record as equally indebted to the effervescent pop of Phoenix, as it is the white funk of Talking Heads. Geordie sings, plays guitar and keys, with Evan on bass, backing vocals and production. Together the duo create a sensational sound that's backed by tons of potential.
Stream the debut single by The Magic below. Taken from their debut album 'Ragged Gold', released on Monday 25th June 2012 on vinyl and download. 'Ragged Gold' is a record as equally indebted to the effervescent pop of Phoenix, as it is the white funk of Talking Heads. Get in to it. PRE-ORDER HERE >> THE MAGIC 'RAGGED GOLD' PRE-ORDER

Oslo's Pelifics gets the pen & paper out to write a light, indispensable offering which doesn't leave much room for manoeuvre whatsoever. Syncing the 80's style with today's Logic & Cubase plugins is fundamental to Pelifics nature about why those much loved synth arrangements and additions of a righty timed vocal, can always make hearing tracks that feature a cow bell sample glide excellently over ones ears. Here are two more tracks from his most recent "Lifetime EP" Vol. 1.

Canadian brothers (from Guelph, Ontario to be exact) Geordie and Evan Gordon are The Magic. The band's first release (at least known to us) is the catchy, kinetic "Door To Door". Sporting some sharp syncopated rhythms, on point melodic phrasing and one bitchin' sax solo, "D 2 D" just became your new favorite song. Hit that play button! The Magic ( Facebook ) Rating 8.1

Dine Alone Impressing with a live show is one thing, but eliciting a similar positive response with a record, away from the energy the crowd and the volume of the PA, can be a good deal tougher. Vancouver's Chains Of Love nailed the former and then some at NXNE last year , but despite one of the most impressive things about the show being that they obviously had good songs to go along with their crackling Motown-friendly, garage-soul sound and onstage charisma, I didn't immediately assume that their debut album - whenever it arrived [...]
