BRACKEN (Anticon) – www.myspace.com/brackenmusic

The new venture from Hood main man Chris Adams. The magnificent debut, “We Know About The Need” (released on Anticon 12th February), mixes claustrophobic electronica, cut-up loops, dubbed out experimentation and darkly beautiful melodies, forging a path somewhere between Third Eye Foundation, Boards of Canada & Hood. Bracken walks that rarely tread turf between the electronic and the organic, where complex arrangements sound free and easy and every sound finds its rightful place.

Uncut - “Pick of the bunch is “Fight or Flight” whose frazzled luminosity betrays an affection for both the Durutti Column and The Beta Band.”

Angryape.com – “Bracken is a name that we're really tipping for 2007 and the album is sure to be nothing short of excellent.”

Southern Records – ‘Heathens’ – Song of the week Jan 07

SJ ESAU (Anticon & Twisted Nerve) – www.myspace.com/sjesau

A glorious collage of experimental pop which builds, skips, then splinters across the feted lands of The Beach Boys, Syd Barrett, Jim O'Rourke & Why? whilst remaining quite refreshingly unique.

Plan B magazine “(SJ ESAU) - so sweetly wonderful... so incredibly homemade and so brave for letting you see exactly how they put everything together, no magic, which of course was all the magic they needed.”

“Wrong Faced Cat Feed Collapse” released by Anticon, February 22nd

GARETH S BROWN (Misplaced Music) – www.myspace.com/garethsbrown

Gareth S Brown presents vividly autumnal, enchanted soundscapes, created through the prism of glockenspiel fuelled electronica.

With influences as diverse as Eastern European folk music, funeral marches and jewellery boxes, “Iron Henry” (released on Misplaced Music January 22nd) is a gorgeous work of layered beauty with nods towards Philip Glass, Terry Riley, Michael Nyman, Max Richter and Aphex Twin.

Sandman Magazine: It is very beautiful, very epic and needs to be listened to repeatedly.

I’d Rather Be Fat then Confused Mag: “…a fragile beauty, so secret its kept in a box but when its allowed out it twinkles like the stars.
