VIDEO: Traccula - Puppies On Death Row

IN CONVERSATION: Pinhdar

IN CONVERSATION WITH: PINHDAR Please introduce yourselves...  Hi! We are Cecilia (vocals) and Max (guitar and production).  We've been making music together for years. We started in 2003 with the rock band Nomoredolls. With NMD, we recorded 3 albums and toured the world, especially the USA. In 2010 we stopped our band and founded A Night Like This Festival , an independent music event held here in northern Italy. But we couldn't live longer without making music so here is the duo PINHDAR. How would you describe your music?  We tried to melt the styles we love:  rock and electronic from the early '80s with the Trip Hop that came later. Someone said our music is "trippy". What are you doing at the moment?  Cecilia:  We've just released the Videoclip of our single "Toy" and soon the album "PINHDAR" will follow. It's actually already available on all the major platforms as we speak...

VIDEO: Kempt - Commune

LIFE AS SURFACE NOISE: Astro-B Single Remix

We have provided a remix, under our Life As Surface Noise guise, for the new Astro-B single HelloW I Love U . Recently released by Thomas Imposter Records from Tokyo, Japan, the remix appears on the flipside, a track called Techno Maniac Cowboy. A limited edition 7" clear vinyl is available. Yum!

VIDEO: Mary May - Song For Eunice Kathleen

Mary May has a great new video out for 'Song For Eunice Kathleen' - simple but effective, we like it a lot. Smashing tune too.

LIFE AS SURFACE NOISE: New Demo Track 'Pictures'

Over the last couple of days, we have started recording a demo for a new Life As Surface Noise tune. We are only in the early stages of the process at the moment, but we have given it the working title 'Pictures'. As usual Blu is putting the music together, but unusually Skreen is trying to write some cheerful words. Ha!
