Terraform

A Portland, Oregon based art punk/no wave band: Terraform was formed in the Winter of 2008 by guitarist Ryan Jørgensen and drummer Paul Billy Sobiech. Rather than playing his guitar and singing in a traditional manner, Jørgensen instead focused on making unique and unusual sounds and contorting his voice. The music has been described as spare, noisy, mechanical, and dancey and has been compared to early Devo, Arab on Radar, and various bands from the Bay Area Art-punk scene in the 70s.

Noisy Pig

Noisy Pig is the alter ego of Bernardo Santarelli, the Berlin based musical and video performer.
Noisy Pig has developed a unique sound that mixes different elements: techno with synth-pop, catchy melodies with lo-fi guitars, sarcastic lyrics with queer topics. Breaking from the cliques of the underground, Noisy Pig uses his naive touch and playful style to create a new platform where he can express twisted attitudes.

Amazon Molly

Comedy post-riot grrrl, fun, punk songs about Tetris, sex and gender politics. Influenced by pop, punk, folk, riot grrl, musicals, grunge, and “lesbian music”, Amazon Molly like to think they sound like the awkward shouldn’t-still-be-acting-like-a-teenager offspring of The Murmurs and Northern State, conceived with the Buffy soundtrack playing in the background. Except there is no rap. (Yet.) http://www.myspace.com/amazonmollymusic
