Pull In Emergency

Hmm....east london concrete-sounding indie?
(they're actually from north London)

I've been wanting to see this band live for about a year now but not gotten around to it - and now I can't see any gigs other than the Underage Festival for which I am about a decade too old (strictly 14-18 year olds only).

Pointing you in the direction of 'Follow', in particular, but only on their MySpace player as there's no sample on Last.fm at the moment.

'In Silence' and 'Planes' were released as a double A side on the Mute Irregulars label towards the back end of 2008.

Howling Bells - Nightingale

The poster for their new album, 'Radio Wars' caught my eye as I rushed past it this morning so I thought I'd check it out...

Howling Bells - Nightingale

Bit electro, possibly indie ambient - I really like this track in particular, especially Juanita Stein's vocals and the synth behind the verses. 'Cities Burning Down' has also just been released as a single on Independiente Records.

There's no media on the Last.fm page at the moment but hoping it'll come. For now, it's up on their MySpace player.

Blind Pilot - Go On, Say It

Re-blogging a track I heard on Insomnia Radio UK's Daily Dose MP3 Blog. I could easily spend all day on their website. Every day :).

There's some fantastic music up there and they transmit a fair few podcasts, but the track I wanted to post is today's free mp3:

Blind Pilot - Go On, Say It

and this is their MySpace. Kind of Shins-esque but not as quirky.

Rosin Murphy

Some full tracks available on her Last.fm listing so I'm just going to point you towards a couple of my favourites of hers.

Ruby Blue - First heard it on the Grey's Anatomy soundtrack. The electro riff on this track is side-to-side-head-bob inducing so listen on the tube at your own peril (I learnt the hard way)

Ramalama (Bang Bang) - Preview clip only. Another memorable TV moment - this song was used in Season 2 of 'So You Think You Can Dance' as the backing track to a zombie-style dance performed by the dancers remaining at that stage. And also in Grey's Anatomy.
