Amen Break - EP (2011)

13:41 / Comments (0) / by No Promotion


'With a target demographic of the Didsbury Wine Bar attending, William Burroughs reading, affluent pseudo intellectual, Amen Break fuse a common pop whores melodic sensibility with often failed attempts at rhythmic complexity. These three disparate souls were drawn together by the forces of not wanting to do honest work and Gumtree wanted ads'

Thats what they say. We say - these guys write good tunes!

No promotion would like to apologize for the recent lack of activity. We have had problems advertising the blog on music/community forums because they often think we are spam or are advertising for profit. After our posts were consistently deleted we were forced to stop placing them and as a result our stream of new music stopped.
          After some thought, we have some different methods to try and shall be implementing them in the coming weeks.....So if you happen upon this blog and like the idea but not the limited content, please return at a later date as we hope it will be running properly. If you have any advice regarding the above we'd love to hear it.

The Dunes - Pin the fall EP (2005)

04:53 / Comments (0) / by No Promotion


Currently on extended hiatus in europe, The Dunes recorded and gigged in the London area in 2007. This 3 track EP will leave you hoping they get it back together soon. 

Best described as indie/pop their music wouldn't have been out of place in the mainstream charts if things had gone differently. If you like good guitar based alternative pop then this band are as good as anyone from the past few years. Catchy tunes but interesting music too. Have a listen!

Good News - Elephant VS Good News (2010)

15:40 / Comments (0) / by No Promotion


Good News are from Kalamazoo in Michigan and formed at the end of 2009. A math rock duo of drums and guitar. As you would expect there are changing time signatures and tempos here but they manage to make them all flow and the music never feels forced or overcomplicated. In addition to the 'interesting' bits they have some nice melodic hooks. Fans of good improvised drums and guitar should give this a listen. A very promising start, we hope they continue.


Good News give their music away for free which is even more reason to support them. Check out what they are up to here: http://www.myspace.com/goodnewstunes

The Dave's exellent latest album comes straight from a bedroom somewhere in East London. A mix of pop, electro and folk. Old school keyboards mixed with ukelele, electric guitar, melodica, the odd kazoo and nicoesque backing vocals.

UK States - House (2005)

03:38 / Comments (0) / by No Promotion


The first album sent to us is from the UK States, formed in London in 2004 and now sadly disbanded.
"A terrific debut showcasing an anglicised Americana folk-pop sound with a menu of songs that sparkle with jangling guitars and soaring harmonies. like all good pop, folk and country songs there are plenty dark clouds looming on the horizon."
This album was self-released at the time but to no sales and no exposure. A great record and a great way to start this blog!
