More Information

Crystal Castles

Crystal Castles -

Canadian electro from Toronto's boy-girl duo Crystal Castles, whose lo-fi approach to the genre makes their music both sweet and sincere whilst being every bit as punk as the rest. '...hit and run electropop, flailing, pulsing beeps smashed over an evil beat and driven onward by an incomprehensible shrieked vocal.' - Drowned In Sound.

The Prodigy

The Prodigy -

One of the biggest innovators in commercial dance music since 1990, musical genius Liam Howlett and his colleagues were at the forefront of the rave explosion ('Experience'), early techno/trance/dance crossovers ('Jilted Generation') and rap/punk,techno fusion ('Fat Of the Land'). Known for their stunning lightshows and MCing when playing live, The Prodigy will take your brain to another dimension.

Black Kids

Black Kids -

Flamboyant retro-pop from the Florida-based Black Kids. Mixing the sound of The Cure with grand electro rhythms and disco beats, the Black Kids are one of the most energetic and original bands to come out of the electro-pop generation.

The Go! Team

The Go! Team -

A kaleidoscope of cut and paste sounds and old skool beats, combined with some chilled vocals, The Go! Team have been building up legions of avid fans over the last year or so. The fact that a fifteen minute power failure in the middle of their headlining set on Glastonbury's John Peel stage failed to deter any of the crowd should tell you all you need to know about their live performances. Imagine Saint Etienne and Grandmaster Flash playing recorders and other school-music-cupboard instruments and you're somewhere close. Superb.

The Music

The Music -

Originally formed in 1999, The Music are one of the most enduring bands on the indie scene. Influenced by the Madchester groups of the late eighties and early nineties, with a definite leaning towards the Oasis breed of loud, sleazy rock'n'roll, The Music have managed to survive the onslaught of newer, more crisp indie bands by staying just exactly as they are.

Goose -

Belgian electronic act making dark and brooding techno inspired by the likes of Nine Inch Nails, Daft Punk and Das Pop. Lying somewhere between modern indie-rave and eighties beat-led pop, Goose's music is consistently surprising and constantly mesmerising.

Velofax -

Prog-dancefloor-krautrock.
