If you have a free night tonight, head on down to the Barfly in Camden to check out one of London’s most exciting upcoming bands, The Recusants. More

Releasing their Settings EP earlier this year to widespread critical acclaim, Brooklynites Jesse Cohen and Eric Emm have been forming bands for as long as they can remember, but at last in Tanlines, seem to have really found a direction that hits. Their tropical guitar, percussion and synth-pop has influences in dance music and genres much further afield, certainly not restricted to the, albeit experiemental, urban New York streets.

Now prepping compilation album Volume On, before a debut studio album will hit some time next year, the 2-CD package features a host of EPs, compilation tracks, long deleted singles, remixes and never before heard songs. Touring the UK in early December, you can listen to more Tanlines here.

When I first laid eyes on Carl, the musical genius behind Radere, I was drawn to him like a moth to a flame. I knew there was something different about him that I needed to discover. More

One of the bands that really caught my eye last weekend at Brighton’s Great Escape Festival was  Pony Pony Run Run. In their native France the band are blowing up bigtime. They’ve sold out 3,000 capacity venues as well as tours with Simple Minds, Calvin Harris and La Roux, and are certainly set for a big future. More

Hey Zeus are one of the hottest Indie bands to explode onto the Manchester scene for a long time.. And I mean literally explode – with just three shows under their  belt, and barely a full complement, Hey Zeus smashed all competition to be crowned  best unsigned band in Manchester in the back-end of 2009 – an accolade which saw the young four-piece supporting the likes of Snow Patrol, Happy Mondays and KiD BRiTiSH at the MEN Arena in December.

Real name Elizabeth McChesney, though it doesn’t quite have the same ring to it, Lissy Trullie is fresh off the New York music circuit causing a stir worldwide. Crafting spritely pop-tinged new wave rock, full of energy but with a scenester cool edge only New Yorkers know how, Lissy typifies everything great about the bands making it on the East coast. More

Now infamously performing under the name The Soft Pack, you might know the San Diego four-piece from their former moniker. Called The Muslims until late last year, the band grew tired of the ignorant and frequently racists comments thrown their way during shows and interviews to the point they had to turn over a new leaf.

Out of Bangor, Northern Ireland, despite being featured on Kitsuné’s Maison vol. 7 compilation and being booked for festivals across the summer, Two Door Cinema Club somehow remain unsigned. But don’t expect that to last for long. The recent Kitsuné interaction also brought a single release on the cool French electro label, and while this time around ‘Something Good Can Work’ might have been a small scale event, next year don’t be surprised if their track is the sound of the summer.

Two Door Cinema Club’s indie pop electronica is effortlessly uplifting and makes you want to get up on your feet and dance. Their jerky riffs are a sound far beyond the clichéd indie band bogging down the industry at the moment, Two Door Cinema Club though are on the rise, and with a refreshingly entertaining EP under their belts, the future is looking very bright.
