My Turn To Kill

My Turn To Kill were an upcoming rock band hailing from Anglesy, North Wales.
They have now changed their name as of May 2009 to Through Colour to avoid being stereotyped as a metal or hardcore band. Mixing catchy chorus's with killer mesmeric riffs, the band offer a fresh new vibe to the music scene. Songs such as Kids Of Cancer and Sand Choked Emotion prove that the band are up there with the 'big gun' rock bands such as Kids In Glass Houses and Paramore. Their sound is intensely epic and certainly has the potential to make it big.

Draw me Stories

The melodic, thumping, and occasionally eccentric timbre of Cardiff's Draw me Stories is the musical invention of three chaps: Carl Hodgetts sings songs about all sorts, Mathieu Albasser plays bass and tickles the glockenspiel, and Samuel Souter hits all things that emit tasty ‘booms’ or ‘tings’ (these may include drums, spoons or plant pots). The story began for our three troubadours at Cardiff University.

Info_Cifon

nfo_Cifon produces and composes Electro with abstract arrangements, pointing to a diverse range of influences. These are highlighted by an amalgam of styles, manifesting as angular, layered tones and rhythms, composed to have maximum impact in any environment. Characteristically Info_Cifon's arrangements are constructed from Modular foundations then built up with other forms of synthesis and distinctive programming techniques. Fundamentally, the various styles are tonal metaphors of a disdain for global institutions, govenments and diplomats with their own vested interests.
