The Bordellos - Weird K
I guess 'Weird K' is what sonic cosmonauts eat for breakfast instead of Special K. Taken from The Bordellos forthcoming new album 'Ronco Revival', this freebie is the first taste from a record that is set to explore the magic of music. This whimsical pop delight feels somehow like it belongs on a record released by the Harvest label in about 1971, and that's no bad thing.

Pleasure Curses - Bounce Above
The Washington, DC duo have hit the nail on the head with the title of this new single. 'Bounce Above' is a bouncy electronica/pop song that marks out Pleasure Curses as one of the US's finest proponents of tunes that are designed both for the dancefloor and for regular listening. With crossover potential intact, we're hoping these guys become big news soon.

There's Talk - The Salt
There's Talk are a new band from San Francisco. They describe themselves as "electronic folk" but will also do nice things to the ears of people who like dreampop. They released their debut EP 'Tiny Strands' last month and have picked the quite gorgeous 'The Salt' as the single used to promote the EP. It's a delicate piece and impresses as a first offering.
