Dead Gaze
R. Cole Furlow fronts Dead Gaze, a skuzzy but very poppy lo-fi band out of Mississippi. In 2010, after Dead Gaze's first cassette release, End of Days, Why Not You on Mirror Universe, the group released a split with Gray Things on Clan Destine. The same year, they also released a two-song 7” single on Fire Talk Records, which found them moving from their early Flaming Lips sound in a chillwave direction with drum machines and synthesizers. ~ Jason Lymangrover, Rovi

Archdukes
Archdukes were formed on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland in 2010. Amidst some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and amongst the confusion that surrounds a tourist destination,
they began to write music inspired by the various records and soundtracks that had pervaded their formative years, noting the irony that their sound in no-way reflected their surroundings.
With an e.p. in the works, and a dynamic live show, who knows where they'll be next...

Blue Hawaii
Blue Hawaii tells the story of a lush paradise. The way begins ambient and uncertain, but beautiful white shell beaches and carefree sunshine parties await and nourish those travelers with love in their hearts; their peace thus raised above the arguments found along the rocky road. The duo consists of Raph (Braids) and Agor; they use voice, guitars, synths, drum machines, and other electronics to create a kind of tropical-pop with love ache melodies and experimental club rhythms.

Whirr
Whirr is the name of at least two artists: 1. With their steady ebb and flow of warm, effects-laden sounds, northern California’s Whirr (Formerly Whirl) give the sounds of 90s shoegaze a widescreen update for the post-millennial era. The young sextet’s walls of lush guitars, breathy vocals, dreamy synth and thunderous drumming propel listening ears into a near-cinematic realm where instantly catchy melodies and emotional, enveloping atmospheres hang perfectly in the balance.

Do The Robot
"April 2008. Our first full-length record is about to be released on valve records. There is excitement and anticipation for something that we are already so distant from. The recording process for "Amp on fire" was long and tedious and drawn out for almost a year. What as to be originally an EP turned into 2 EPs then to an album, cut and pasted together the best we could to minimise the long periods of time between recording each part of the record...
