Neuman is a folk rockband from Murcia withhints of post-punk style.With a touch of melancholy, theirmelodies are wrapped by only a piano, a guitarand drums. Extended themes where theintermediate and finalparts of the composition always acquired more weight than the voice. The voice, warm and sensitive runs through a frame of emotions that are transmitted by a descriptivelanguage that moves you on every note, every minute.

Hypocrite in a Hippy Crypt is a indie pop band from Bloomington, Indiana. Band members are still very young and they prefer to stay as anonymous, that not unknown. We know them, we respect the way they present their work and we like them. Their sound is fresh, I would say in the line of "Cage The Elephant", but they refer an influence of Weezer, Beach Boys or Elliot Smith. We hope that they continue forming themselves on the music and that one day they break that shell and offer us that kind of music that makes people so happy. So we wait for you guys!

Ambros Chapel is a band from Valencia who sings in English and has a clear influence from Bowie and other bands like Suede and The Cure. Their music is very instrumental, but very alive and it captive you very quickly. Ambros Chapel is a indie rock band that I can not stop listening again and again.

The Dubliner band Land lovers come to us with a pop music style that far from been something standard they however involve a return to a well done pop, with simple songs but full of harmony, very melodic and catchy. Land lovers have undoubtedly in their roots the legacy of this country, Ireland, a country that have given us so many good musicians.

With an acoustic base and a very nice voice, of different shades, sometimes slightly shy, sometimes very sensitive, Kennedy is a Spanish band based in Seville, who sings in English. Musical themes made with very good taste that grow and develop without following the typical compositions of verse and chorus. Their tracks are very elaborated, impeccable and very rich. A band that set very high standards for bands that are already famous in the Spanish independent scene, but that they should learn from this band at least to sing and at most to compose.

I have always liked bands leaded by a powerful drums, bands that make you to feel alive. But if you add to this the same energy for the guitar, an according bass, great tracks and stylish singing, there you are, you get King Sparrow. What are you waiting for? Go listen to them!

Louisiana is a band from Zaragoza that has just released their first album. With a meticulous composition and lyrics, the sound of Louisiana develops and grows throughout the album, following a melodic thread that leads you and wraps you with the singer voice all over the disc.

Bunk Jumski, original name, original band and original beginnings. May be the fact that they all met in a car accident and transformed this situation into a positive project defines the sound of this experimental punk band. With a touch of jazz from thie saxophonist, these 4 boys from Minneapolis have fresh compositions and like to record them as a wild raw music.
Tracks:
Influenced by The Fall, in A Lazarus Soul we find rooted the meaning of what making music is and having your own project. For this Dublin band, it is not enough to compose, to perform, or, as many other bands justify, just having fun. A Lazarus Soul understands music as a very personal way to contribute with something. It is a music born from the deepest part of themselves, a music made from the inside.

Hang Glider is LA musician Mike Puretz’s project and his self titled EP is his first published work. This is an exceptional work, in which the rhythms are introduced in different layers, arranged trough a sweeping weave that drags you into the center of the composition. The final touch is given by the voice, echo, chorus and lyrics in an elegant atmosphere and great dynamism.
