Hot Horizons are two brothers who make melodic and beautiful pop music. '6AM' is a refreshingly atmospheric ballad about not being able to sleep. Hot Horizons' are releasing a single later this year on Zarcorp titled 'October'.

"We grew up together in the first circle of hell but now we live in the fifth not too far from the third. Climate's better but everyone is so aggie... There are a few of us kicking about. No boundaries, no problems."

sometimes bands can be difficult.

Parties - Zero

so erotic.

love.

sweet layer.

Social Pipe makes these gorgeous electronic dance tracks with a twist. throw in a handful of samples and the ability to inject a whole heap of freshness into what is arguably an already overly saturated genre, Social Pipe is probably one of my favourite discoveries of the past few months. it's dance without the eurotrash, upbeat without the cheese and most of all it is brilliant.

Social Pipe - Reversal

she's played with you and me.

adorable adorable indie that magically fell through my inbox. think 'Hounds Of Love' meets 'You Already Know' and you're pretty much there; perfect. The Wild Mercury Sound are working on their debut EP.

The Wild Mercury Sound - Chemistry

you'll never be.

not only can Get People create perfect blends of jams for the summertime but they are also a dab hand at re-working other people's tracks. check out their remix of NewIslands track 'Cold' below. magical.

NewIslands - Cold (Get People Remix)

ghost of what once was.

this is a cover and a half. i'm obsessed.

the exhibition is average at best.

Cymbals are a seven piece Swedish band who met at summer camp 8 years ago. except they've only been making music for a tiny percent of all those years. the rest i guess was mostly spent frolicking, and being effortlessly awesome. can't wait to find out and hear more.

Cymbals - Summer Job

i FINALLY went to see Cold Pumas last night. it was awesome and pretty sweaty.

Cold Pumas - Beat Mystery [buy it on gorgeous vinyl here]

fight or flight.

smashing their way into the world of gloom-pop, Belgrade come up trumps with thundering love songs laden with intense drum breaks. to say this band already sound epic would be a great understatement; intelligent, angular music for your darker days.
