Pondus – Sandur

BUY 

The Icelandic trio Pondus consisting drums, bass and guitars, play an absolute chanting minimalistic pop mixture with elements of dub and jazz.

Having played with such diverse artists as Kylie Minogue, Sigur Ros, Morten Harket and written songs to Marc Almond this is the debut release to Petur Hallgrimsson and his new trio. The music is instrumental, suggestive and without comparison. Call it film noir or “tubular bells” blended with some smooth dub bass and dreamy guitars. We call these tunes sublime exile recordings ! – The album is recorded in Reykjavik by Björk collaborator Valgeir Sigurdsson.

Episode One

In a Galaxy not that far far away……Cardiff, less than a light year ago in a toxic Nebula of a 24 hour BBQ, 2 stars collided thus creating the nuclear fusion of The MeMeMe’s, namely Richard Proctor and Mel Daley – collaboration of the millennium. After the explosion, Richard and Mel discovered that they were in possession of some Hyper Muso-Scientific powers. Mel learnt that she now possessed Helium-based song writing skills and Richard had obtained Hydrogen-Proficiency in arrangement and instrumentation. They set forth these skills in a string theory of acoustic gigs as well as invitations to perform at “SWN” festival 2008, support slots with Martin Carr (Brave Captain, Boo Radleys) and Rhys Ifans’ band The Peth. They have also been featured as Artist of the Week on BBC Radio.

The Fakes – Storm in a tea cup

BUY 

the fakes take their inspiration from the pop sounds of Mazzy Star, The Sneaker Pimps, Cowboy Junkies, and other bands with cool girl singers. The sound is pop; sensual, dark brooding, with a fragile intense female vocal over stark guitars and intelligent electronica. What punk would sound like if it could be beautiful.

The new “Sudden Radiance and Fantastic Collapse” release to aussie shoegazers The Fakes will be released on November 1, 2011.

The long awaited second album from dreampop/electro band the Fakes is a sparkling new album of melancholic; cinematic pop that pulls the listener into it’s smokey; nicotine drenched haze of introspection. Almost three years in the making, “Sudden Radiance….” shows the band shaking off their major influences to create what may become one of the most compelling local releases of the year. The album features special guest performances by Anna Eklund (Sad Day for Puppets) on the single “Dreams Burn Down”; Chloe Hall; and Anna-Lynn Williams of Trespassers William.

The Fakes originally formed whilst working at a summer camp in Connecticut; the fakes spent their free time recording demos heavily influenced by bands such as Mazzy Star and My Bloody Valentine. Relocating back to Melbourne in 2004; the fakes hooked up with producer Robbie Rowlands and recorded a new demo which helped secure a Music for the future grant. Their Ep “Storm in a Teacup” was released to positive reviews and the fakes were featured as triple’s J’ radios’ Exposed band of the week.
Spending the next year working on their live show and expanding their sound; the fakes released their follow-up Ep “Little Deaths,” which highlighted a sonic leap forward.
