New Track: Kinkajou – Miss

Following the release of their debut EP, Do You Feel Electric? in December, electronic-rock duo MISS are back into the spotlight – and let me tell you – this time around, they’re a force to be reckoned with.

Unlike for delicately dark compositions featured in their four-track set, the explosive offering makes way for the gritty, low-down funky guitar riffs, flirting with the wayward drums, which creates a too-cool-for-school, 70s vibe. If you have a moment, boost your day and listen to the London-based alternative rockers at work.

Song of the Day: Someone to Try For – ArtClassSink

Today’s Song is Someone to Try For by Joe Biggs (Vocals, Guitar), Samuel Edwards (Vocals, Bass), Eliott Benoist (Guitar) and Jack Pilston (Drums) – otherwise known as ARTCLASSSINK. The single is coming from their EP Illa.

The Oxford-based alternative rock/shoe glaze band have created a fusion of laid-back, feather-light melodies with heart-racing, raging guitars – it really deserves your ears.

Their stamp on rock music have kept them on their toes: they were support acts for WE ARE AUGUSTINES, SKATERS, THIS TOWN NEEDS GUNS and TEMPLES as well as headlining shows in venues such as The Garage in London.

Have a listen to Someone To Try For – this feel-good, summery song reminds me of JOY DIVISION’S classic, Love Will Tear Us Apart. What do you think? Answers below please!

If the single tickle your fancy, why not head over to their SoundCloud page and check out their EP. Connect with the British indie rockers @ArtClassSink

Star song: 1982 –El Born

Today’s song is 1982 the, debut single from British alternative rock band, EL BORN.

Since forming in May of this year, the London-based act is already making waves; they’ve done back-to-back live performances across London and they were also featured on BBC Sessions in June.

It comes to no surprise that these guys generated interest in no time, as 1982 is simply a pleasant production, with effortlessly cool but gutsy vocals that instantly grabs your attention. Since its release in May, 1982 reached number 19 in the iTunes chart. It was also featured on ITV’s hit drama Monroe and coldplay.com.

Go on, have a listen to 1982, as this song really deserves your undivided attention. Like me, if you’re a fan after listening to 1982, head over to their website, where you can get to know this talented band.

I’m loving this song: Forty (Radar Station Remix) by High/Low

I must have played this track AT LEAST ten times today…but I have to say that this is not the typical work of Lee Yates and Steve Weston aka High/Low. I guess the signature sound of this British duo is straight-up alternative rock – there’s no two ways about it!

With the help of producer Simon Bellamy, these Essex rockers have given one of their offerings Forty (let’s say) an electronic treatment – and I have to say it sound so DAMN GOOD!!!! These guys started out in late 2011 and they already have two EPs under their belt. So if you like the sound of the remixed Forty, all of their music is available on Bandcamp.

There’s no sign of High/Low slowing down…..their debut full-length album is coming very soon… to get the real taste ofthe band, here’s the album teaser:
