FUTURE SOUNDS RADIO DEBUTS 1.18.10
More information on bands that debuted this week on the FUTURE SOUNDS radio show on WOXY....
Sweden's NOTTEE has a way about her that leaves me feeling naughty indeed. Her name is Nova Drougge and she's making a run at LYKKE LI for foxy Swede. Kitsune is already onto it.
Yet another Brooklyn act with electro-indie vibes, MONOGOLD has already grabbed press quotes from Spin and Deli Magazine NY, and now the Johnny-come-lately Future Sounds team spilled into the party. Unsigned
A major label band that wasn't from the UK slipped into our show, how did it happen? Well, we liked the music, and Mercury US operates like an indie at times anyway. In town playing Spaceland for the Club NME night this Wednesday.
New Jersey's THE STATIC JACKS are working hard to right the possibly insurmountable wrong that MTV's 'Jersey Shore' has done the Garden State. Playing the Mercury Lounge in NY on the 23rd and then to SXSW. Unsigned
Part of a San Diego triple-threat that came courtesy of our buds at Sezio, THE PADDLE BOAT has been making wavves (I couldn't resist) loud enough that we've been hearing the name splashed around before finally hearing the sound. Single Screen Records
I need more music from this band, as this song, "Mantra/What Is And What Is Not" opens up into an amazing creation, and there must be more behind this curtain. Single Screen Records
Finishing out the SD trifecta it's BLACK MAMBA, a band with a striking sound that is also on Single Screen Records. There is something in the water down in San Diego and it ain't Montezuma's Revenge.
I can tell I'm going to like this TWIN SHADOW character, just look at the man with the yellow balloon. This song, "Castles In The Snow" is fantastic. Unsigned
BAD SPORTS, another brilliant band name! The garage rock sound is as dirty and nasty as the floor in a Napa Auto Parts. Dig it! Unsigned
He's 6'5" and has been described as sounding like NICK CAVE fronting SUICIDE. Thought that would grab your attention. We haven't heard anything this Cave-like since O. CHILDREN. Look for Jack at SXSW this March. Spunk Records (AU)
I've been hearing about these Peaches for some time, wild rumors about a band that was going to swallow us up, and finally the Golden Sugar Bear sent us some music. Unsigned
HAIR ENVELOPE
You have to be intrigued at the very least when you run across a band named HAIR ENVELOPE, and this led to quite a discovery from Seattle. This photo only makes the curiosity boil over that much more. Unsigned
Kevin @ Buzzbands.LA tipped us on THE RHONE OCCUPATION and we liked what we heard so they are now playing with JAGUAR LOVE at February's RUMBLE: LA party @ 3 Clubs. Unsigned and they are giving their EP away for free on their Myspace page.

TRACK: Open The Door
The Pittsburgh of Canada (Hamilton) brings us this band that isn't afraid of '80's influences that also mixes contemporary sounds, a la fellow Northerners, THE DELAYS. I need more music from this act, because everything I've heard thus far is of high caliber. Sonic Unyon Records

TRACK: The Drop
We were tipped off on this electro-indie outfit that shares time in Boston and Montreal by CHASING KINGS, and so we investigated and fell into a sticky mess of tracks that will all get FS radio play. Unsigned.
