Last month we introduced you to ambient newcomers Phoria. Mastering the art of etherial, textured sounds, the band’s glorious Bloodworks EP has won critical acclaim and secured Phoria on many a ‘ones-to-watch’ list. Phoria now adds another achievement to its impressive catalogue with the official video for ‘Red’, the second …
All shimmery and dreamy and layered, MONEY fits right in with the Bella Union aesthetic. Personally tracked down by Simon Raymonde after selling out a series of local shows last year, it’s not difficult to see what got the industry legend so excited; these Manchester boys seem to be making more …
Hailing from the Midlands, neo-psych four piece Temples has got everyone talking this year. With their big hair and an even bigger sound, the band has already supported Suede, Kasabian and The Vaccines on their recent arena tours; all off the back of a single release. Released by Heavenly Recordings late …
It would be all too easy to draw a direct line between the stark, almost alien landscapes of Feathers‘ mysterious video for If All Now Here‘s first single, ‘Land of the Innocent‘, and the track’s retro sci-fi sonic bent. No, it all feels as though it …
When you come from a famous family, there’s no doubt the pressures of releasing a debut album into the public sphere are bound to be tenfold: when that family involves the Birkins and the Gainsbourgs, it’s even greater. Here, Lou Doillon tells Alex Cull about the deep sense of personality …
The enigmatic Freddie Dickson‘s takeover of the blogosphere continues unabated, and we here at PlanetNotion are glad to contribute to it. Today, we bring you the premiere of Dickson’s debut video: a wonderfully re-constituted compilation of old family footage soundtracking the young Londoner’s sultry, moody ‘Shut Us Down’. It’s …
Butterclock (otherwise known as Laura Clock) debuted her sultry voice on oOoOO’s ‘NoWayBack‘ all the way in the distant past of February 2012. As a magnificent followup, she just released her much-acclaimed EP First Prom a few weeks ago on FANTASYmusic. The five-track EP nicely demonstrated Butterclock’s …
Rounding out our week-long love-in with Manhattan’s Guards, the decibel-pushing trio have provided us with this stripped back re-imagining of In Guards We Trust‘s thunderous ‘Coming True‘.
In place of the original’s fuzz-laden guitars and monumental wailing choruses, the three-piece – with added accompaniment – have …
Having already gone to no. 1 in their native Iceland, it’s safe to say that Reykjavik’s Retro Stefson are doing something right with their latest single, ‘Qween‘. Taken from the flamboyant indie-dance troupe’s self-titled third album, it’s a grandiose, house-infused treasure trove of hymnal pianos, off-beat hi-hats, and …
Let’s be honest, when you hear the mammoth ringing bells, fuzzy power-pop guitars and upbeat vocal chants of Guards‘ ‘Ready to Go‘, it’s pretty impossible to imagine the track’s accompanying video being anything but a whirlwind, summer adventure. Well, that’s exactly what this savvy Manhattan three-piece have …
