Being under Labrador Records mean their [...]
Looking at the image above, you would never believe they would actually make a song proclaiming their love for a city like London, maybe a brain eating tribe, no?

- PHOTO BY HOBO GESTAPOOver the past few months we have heard enough Diamond Cut remixes to know they are mint as hell.We applaud them for their efforts and we definitely want more from them.Remixing the likes of Monarchy, Fear Of Tigers, Hail Social & Cinnamon Chasers is a big deal to us and they [...]
It is said we are in an age where singles matter more than full albums. Sometimes a single track makes an artist or in other cases, it kills.We beg to differ and still prefer having full albums, which provide a basis for better judgement.Monarchy has not put out an album or even an EP, and [...]

Kasper Bjorke is one of our favorite Danish electronic producers of the moment. “Kasper Bjorke” is his solo project exploring analogue disco sounds while “Kasper Bjorke and The Friendly Ghosts” is his alter ego for a more minimal techno/house project.He recently finished working on his second album Standing On Top Of Utopia which is set [...]
WHO ARE SILVER COLUMNS?WHO ARE SILVER COLUMNS?Last month we received mail in our inbox of Silver Columns with a single named “Brow Beaten”.

We are absolutely disgusted with the pop scene these days, and disappointed some of these artistes are actually able to make $$ from such bullshit while others are struggling, making damn good indie music.So when someone like Ellie Goulding who makes music with such pop sensibilities come along, we are more than happy to put [...]
