The diaphanous…the oddball…the wild…the polygenesis, it’s the latest round up of new musical nuggets, peaking and tickling the fancy of the Monolith Cocktail.
So what we got to offer? Kitten Pyramid (Beck meets the Beta Band on a Caledonian hilltop), Mountain Bird (the expansive navel-gazing dreamy Swedish pop version of U2), Juliette Commagere (aloof L.A. electronica pop noir), The Moons (preening Glam spunk-up of Mott, Bolan and Mick Ronson era Bowie), Billie Van (plaintive kooky piano pop from the fjords), Michael Forrest (Hot Chip meets Carl Criag electro) and tUnE-yArDs (downtown Brooklyn via Lagos).
