2. Glass Ghost – Like a Diamond

Interesting. Beautiful arrangement. I don't really want to be drawn to it, but it's irresistible.



3. Ex Lovers – Just a Silhouette

Lovely guitar intro, but a little bit cheesy really.

4. Their Planes Will Block Out the Light – Teflon Kids

Sounds like a young Morton Harkett. No bad thing at all. And they take themselves a bit seriously - but not too much thankfully.

5. Pacovolume – Cookiemachine

Great energy, the song goes where it wants to, and I love the simple keyboards. Interesting chap.



6. Uninhabitable Mansions – Do You Have a Strategy?

Not quite sure if I love or HATE the vocals, but it's a fun little song that keeps things chugging along very nicely.



7. Phantogram – When I’m Small

Great groove, and then it goes and does something really interesting. fantastic build. Lovely.

8. Nicole Reynolds – When We Meet Again

Great voice. Lovely little song. Really grows, and very simply put together. classy.



9. Jon and Roy – Another Noon

Yet again a classy number. Great voice and a great song. simple as that. Not trying to do anything clever, just doing it well.

Listen to Jon and Roy at MySpace



10. Jamie T – The Man’s Machine


This song just keeps surprising me. I had no idea what to expect, and I'm still not sure what I got.




11. Drummer – Lottery Dust

A band just trying to be the best it can.



12. Tellaro – Vacuum

Beautiful intro and then it gets weird. Good weird. But definitely weird.

Listen to Tellaro’s Vacuum via Soundcloud.
