f.o. machete

F.O. Machete are the latest beautiful new animal born from the fertile scene of Glasgow, Scotland. Quick on the draw and a force to be reckoned with, they formed in 2003 after the demise of bassist & vocalist Natasha Noramly's previous band Ganger (Domino), and began recording their debut album a mere three months after inception. Fuck-Off Machete's music is as strong as it is catchy, displaying a stripped-back and raw three-piece dynamic. Fractious guitars flanked by mighty bass and solid rhythms propel the centrepiece of vocals simultaneously both innocent and commanding.

The Bismarck

There are 2 bands with the name Bismarck. 1. The Bismarck is a rock band comprised of four long-time friends from Grand Forks, North Dakota (well, Jury's from Bismarck originally, but who's counting?) who have slowly migrated out to the west coast. The Bismarck is a big fan of the Midwest work ethic and independent spirit. They book their own shows, engineer and release their own records, silkscreen their own shirts, load their own gear, drive their own van and - grudgingly - write their own promotional spew.

Felicity Groom

The west coast city of Perth doesn’t have a heck of a lot of iconic landmarks, but who gives a rats when instead there’s iconic Perth musicians like Felicity Groom making sounds that ring through the country greater than any Belltower could. Yep, Groom ticks some impressive boxes, alright: she’s got the cool, feminine confidence of a 60s pop princess like Francoise Hardy, only her sugary melodies are peppered with bouts of wailing and growling sure to appeal to fans of the dirty rock of Nick Cave or PJ Harvey.

Potential Bad Boy

Potential Bad Boy - London based jungle producer turned garage producer turned jungle producer. Welcome home. He describes his style as more musical and traditional than that of many of his peers, which means he focuses more on vocals and makes more direct references to the music's roots in reggae. Surveying the scene he's come back to, McFarlane feels the future looks good. Key track - Meat of the Ghetto - Potential Badboy feat. Junior Dangerous on Jekyll and Hyde Recordings - LF2526
