Clock Opera - White Noise



Somewhere between Four Tet, Cut Copy and Doves sit Clock Opera, the London-based 4 piece. With big harmonies, bouncing synths and more than a little dancability they're an exciting live prospect when you mix it with their tasty visuals.

They know how to pick a video producer too, Aoife McArdle, who recently produced an ad for GQ.

Fránçois & The Atlas Mountains - Plaine Inondable



Bristol-based French native, and part-time Dirty Projectors, Francois returns with a new studio recording next month, due for release through Fence Records.

New single 'Be Water', with it's yodel-like vocals and soft female backing, is truly infectious and mesmerizing. The guy is clearly talented, just check out this beautifully animated video for the track.



If you're based in London get down to the show on 30 Nov at The Betsy Trotwood to see him play with the almost perfect Planet Earth.

Babe Shadow - Sea Serpents



Caught these lot playing with the Ex Lovers a while back.

They are definitely influenced by the incredible Griffy Finn / Jayden Penguin Took rhythm section featured in this cover of Marc Bolan's 'The Street and Babe Shadow'
