Panda Su is a one-woman band hailing from the sunny shores of St Andrews, Fife. A bit of a loner and with no one to turn to founding member Suzanne Isabel Ferreira had no choice but to learn how to play every instrument under the sun by herself. This makes her debut 'Sticks and Bricks' EP (produced and mixed by Black Affair/King Biscuit Time/ex-Beta Band extraordinaire Steve Mason) a joy to listen to but almost an impossibility to play live.

Glatze is one of mr.underwood's projects...
**k (pronounced 2 star K) was founded in 2005 by London/Paris native Mark Wagner during his time living in various Brooklyn warehouse spaces. Entirely recorded on 'real' or analog instruments, **k incorporates diverse and sometimes opposite influences in hazy electronic-psychedelic songs reminiscent of the early forays of Silver Apples, or the austere soul of the Jesus & Mary Chain. **k's first demo quickly gained the attention of Warp records in NYC.
