Mika – Life In Cartoon Motion

Mika, born in Beirut, Lebanon, is a London-based singer/music mastermind. “Life In Cartoon Motion” is his first release but it has already owned the European music charts and its only a matter of time before the same happens in the U.S. Mika’s songs contain just about every kind of instrument and every type of music style, which makes for the complete musical experience. Each song on the CD is impressive in its own way; “Life In Cartoon Motion” is simply going to be one of the very best CDs this year.

Klaxons

Klaxons are an English band, currently based in London, with a large underground following. The word 'klaxon' derives from the Greek verb klazō, meaning "to shriek". Their music makes good use of the bass guitar and is as dancy and psychedelic rock n’ roll can get. Their first and only release “Myths Of The Near Future” is a lot of musical energy and doesn’t let up one bit. If you’re interested in the kind of music that makes you fight and dance with someone at the same time than I’d this would be a good band for you, it’s also good for those who aren’t afraid of being awesome.
