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
We love Miami Horror, so when they made a video for Holidays, it was pretty much a shoe-in we’d love it too. Although it’s a little weirder than we were expecting.
Winner of Best Music Video at SXSW 2010, Saman Keshavarz directs this amazing video for up and comers Cinnamon Chasers, set for a big 2011 themselves.
Our current music obsession, Poor Spirits, just put out a video for track Where Is The Ghost. It’s amazing, just like their EP, which you can download for free here.

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.
Is Tropical are Kitsuné’s big hope for 2011, so you can already assume that they’re good. The slow-burn, slightly gothic electro is infectious and this video directed by Gareth Phillips is equally great. Get ready for them to do major things next year.
San Fran-based Lemonade formed back in 2005 but it hasn’t been until recently that they really started to break through. Wowing crowds at this year’s SXSW, expect them to take 2011 by storm, 6 years overdue.
Jamaica are one of the hottest new bands at the moment, so get ready for them to really blow up in 2011. For now though, their stuff isn’t half bad either.
Cool video from a new band with promise, The Hundred In The Hands’ self-titled debut album is out now.
