Disclosure have been dropping some of the hottest electronic jams recently. They’ve got a 7″ coming out on the wonderful Moshi Moshi at the beginning of next month in the featuring Offline Dexterity and Street Light Chronicle, but we’ve got a couple more tracks from them right here.
London Town soothes you right in from the start with some saxophone and electric piano, before ticking and tricking along into some tight beats letting everyone know they need to be “in London”. Linstigator, then, is more of the same tight rhythms and …
Florrie is one talented young lady – already part of production powerhouse Xenomania, the 21 year old Bristolian has recently branched out on her own to produce some of the best pure pop perfection that I’ve heard in ages. Her original tracks may be a little sickly sweet for some, and yeah the radio will overplay her in no time, but she has got some of the best producers about (namely Justin Faust, Fred Falke, Def Starr, and Bit Funk) remixing her output and throwing it in all different directions.

She releases new …
New Communion Records signings Philadelphia Grand Jury mark the label’s first move away from the folk/acoustic scene, and what a way to do it. This Australian soul/rock trio is definitely something to shout about, dance about and tells all your friends about.
They hit the UK with a bang when a massive 32 date tour begins in London tomorrow evening. The full set of dates and a free MP3 ‘The New Neil Young’ are below, and if you visit the band’s MySpace page, you’ll find a four track EP for …
You might have come across Cate Le Bon (MySpace) before, with her being guest vocalist on Neon Neon’s I Lust You and spending a year touring with them – but a Toadcast a few weeks ago was the first time I appreciated her in her own right.
Her sultry Welsh accented voice has found its way out the deepest darkest welsh countryside, whilst the folk-psychedelic sounds she sculpts around it will begin to peel away those first impressions of innocence. You can see how her previous attempt at making a record ended in …
