Recently the Deli called Rhode Island's Kid Chocolate a surf rock group that "shouldn't be pegged as a retro act." If that statement disappointed the beach partier in you, then look no further than Boston's Trabants . Their album Highwire Surfing is a coast through classic-sounding surf riffs featuring requisite saxophone and flute appearances and retro organ chord progressions -- 100% instrumental. In true surf rock form, Trabants borrow melodic ideas from a variety of cultures, including Western cowboy music, Elvis-y tonk, country rock, Russian folk music, and Henry Mancini-like orchestral hooks (think [...]
Day two of the Devil's picture perfect retrospective of the Glastonbury bands, acts and artists that caught my attention.

London's the High Wire perform a careful balancing act integrating a 90's sound into something for the new century. A rich and textured sound emerges with the result that their 2010 debut 'The Sleep Tape' arched plenty of influential eyebrows. 'Odds and Evens' is really impressive, the trio sounding more stateside that thameside but that should be only seen as a compliment given the way in which the former has trumped the latter in recent years. The sound of socks being pulled up after a particularly long shoegazing session. KD The High Wire [...]
The High Wire wrap up latest album 'The Sleep Tape' with the release of this yearning, life affirming dreamscape. The band claim this to be their favourite song on the album and it's hard to disagree (although they might like to listen to 'It's No Secret' again, just to be sure). 'Pump Your Little Heart' evokes the feeling of twilight optimism, the time where the reality of everyday life gets brushed aside temporarily and all appears warm and cosy. 'The Sleep Tape' may have conjured up a lush, [...]
The Hire Wire had me with their super sweet single 'Leave Me In Love' back in 2009. It's 2011 now and they've popped back up onto my radar with their latest single 'Odds and Evens', taken off of their debut album The Sleep Tape , released back in March, which I somehow missed. I find their timing odd, but I guess I got a little bit used to a Kanye kind of pace in the last half of 2010. 'Odds and Evens' is a lovely little ditty and perhaps one I like [...]
February 2011 sees the release of 'Pump Your Little Heart', the third single to be lifted from The High Wire's debut album 'The Sleep Tape' (2010). Taken from it's place as the album's triumphant parting breath and closing song of every High Wire live show, 'Pump Your Little Heart' stands on its own as a bitterly euphoric eulogy to a lost relationship and a fitting final testament to another year gone by. It is the band's most collaborative writing effort to date and their own firm favourite from 'The Sleep Tape'. Now expanded to a five piece both on stage [...]
If you could see the amount of paper screwed up on my desk you would realise the pain that has gone into choosing my personal top 20 albums of the year. Some of them have featured on the site but for some reason I seem to have overlooked reviewing others. I have found 2010 to be a year of musical discovery as my love of Americana has grown. I hope that you enjoy and maybe discover some artists you might not of heard of. After all, that's the point of me writing the damn thing! #20 The Boy [...]

Frank Yang As a genre/style/pigeonhole, power-pop is not one that traditionally gets a lot of respect. Though its primary qualities of melody and harmony are essential facets of pretty much every style of music that can be hyphenated with "pop", in its undiluted, guitar-driven form it can be far too easy to do middlingly and incredibly difficult to do well. And so even when you're a band that does it masterfully, as Scotland's Teenage Fanclub have for over twenty years, you still might not have more to show for it than confirmed cult status, [...]
Ever since going to a festival last weekend - I've felt well and truly in summer mode. Strange really - it's nearly over now. Anyway, here's a little track that will make you conjure up images of bars, pools and cocktails in the sun. It's a track off the latest Gomma release 'High Wire'. Here, D-Pulse have remixed The KDMS to produce a downtempo, sweltering hot, summery house number. Heart heart heart. Who are D-Pulse I hear you cry? Well, apart from the fact that they're a 4 piece band from Russia [...]
Photography by Me! WHEEE! Okay kiddos, I'm not going to lie... This mixtape was built in a day. It was not curated over a week, it was only test driven once, but that's kinda the point. It's now, for me, now for you, and now for now. Most of these are Oh Teners, some are just Oh Teners To Me (09? 08? whatever). Either way, it's been a short, fast, & furious week of catching up & getting it going, and now, wrapping it up. So. With that in [...]
We are still buzzing after our last impressive show headlined by Velo . Those guys have all the ingredients to be huge. :Kinema: 's support was the perfect match too and it's good to see they've got onto The Guardian's ' New Band Of The Day ' listing since. We hope Velo will return to play our planned showcase at The Great Escape Festival in May. More details to follow on that one in due course... Looking ahead to our next show, we will obviously bring back the amazing Eleni Mettyear and [...]
This week, music and film lovers who didn't like their own world all that much had quite the pick from imaginary (better?) places to live. Plastic Beach, Sisterworld, Logorama, and whatever the fuck place it is that Flash Delirium lives, let's call it Flashlandia™. Personally, while Logorama would definitely be trippy as hell, I think I'd probably opt for Flashlandia™. It seems to me that colours would just be much brighter there and the bubblegum sweeter. Sisterworld would be cool too, lots of concrete, the occasional droning sound emitting from an abandoned building, leaky taps [...]
Clare Nash Updates from the recording sessions for Kate Nash's follow-up to 2007's Made Of Bricks were few and far-between, but what did come out - that she was working with Bernard Butler, as famed for his stint as guitarist in Suede as his production work and that boyfriend Ryan Jarman from Brit-rockers The Cribs was hanging around - seemed to imply that her bubbly piano anthems might be taking on a harder edge on the sophomore effort. A theory borne out by the first [...]

Plastic Beach, Sisterworld, Logorama and wherever it is that Flash Delirium lives (Flashlandia?)
This week, music and film lovers who didn't like their own world all that much had quite the pick from imaginary (better?) places to live. Plastic Beach, Sisterworld, Logorama, and whatever the fuck place it is that Flash Delirium lives, let's call it Flashlandia™. Personally, while Logorama would definitely be trippy as hell, I think I'd probably opt for Flashlandia™. It seems to me that colours would just be much brighter there and the bubblegum sweeter. Sisterworld would be cool too, lots of concrete, the occasional droning sound emitting from an abandoned building, leaky taps [...]

Kate Nash
Clare Nash Updates from the recording sessions for Kate Nash's follow-up to 2007's Made Of Bricks were few and far-between, but what did come out - that she was working with Bernard Butler, as famed for his stint as guitarist in Suede as his production work and that boyfriend Ryan Jarman from Brit-rockers The Cribs was hanging around - seemed to imply that her bubbly piano anthems might be taking on a harder edge on the sophomore effort. A theory borne out by the first [...]
