Indie-funk five piece The Foals, who make an irresistible blend of electronic-pop, dirty disco and pulsating indie-tech. Punked up, funked out and most definitely music to get down and boogie to. '…one of the hottest new bands in indie - they deserve your immediate and total adulation.' - NME

Despite the much-publicised trials and tribulations they've gone through, James, Sean and Nicky remain the Kings of the Welsh music scene.

Bullet For My Valentine cite their main objective as writing rock songs the way rock songs used to be written. Aspiring to a love of acts such as Iron Maiden and Metallica, and an equal hatred of indie-rock, the South-Wales group have enjoyed an upward curve perpetrating their own brand of anthemic rock ballads.

The lovechild of submarine sonar and low frequency midnight moans, Santogold was born somewhere between Bedstuy and Bushwick, Brooklyn and was placed under the care of enigmatic singer and songwriter Santi White. Santogold drives dub and 80's pop influences from song to song.

Warbling bass, island upbeat, and deep-south snap provide foundation for White's whispering lilts and tension-ridden verses.
