Portico Quartet have teamed up with Soundcloud to celebrate the upcoming release of their new album ‘Portico Quartet’ out 30th January 2012 by inviting the world to remix their phenomenal album track ‘Steepless’ which features singer-songwriter Cornelia.

Danish surf rock trio The Good The Bad release their new single ’023′ on February 13th, accompanied by a new film directed by Jeppe Kostrup, who infamously created the previous TGTB video hit ’030′.

’023′ sees TGTB delve into harder surf riffs than ever before, coupled with their customary short and sharp twists featuring lions and war cries as backing vocals. The ‘023’ video fully encapsulates the raw energy of the band live and in the full dynamics of their wild west, cinematic surf rock, while a couple of male peacocks go at it ‘True Blood’ style.

Phantom Limb will be releasing their first single, the title track to their anticipated new album, ‘The Pines’, on December 12th, via Naim Edge Records with the album to follow on February 13th.

‘Enough Time’ is the first offering from dreamy synth-pop collective The Ghosts, and offers a tantalising glimpse of what is to come from their heartfelt debut album. Wavering between melancholy and romanticism, vocalist Alex Starling’s delicate falsetto musings drag you upwards whilst soaring unsettlingly over nostalgic soundscapes. Seductive melodies, memorable hooks and ethereal vocals combine for a compelling result.

The video is directed by Alex Kyrou and can be seen below

Portico Quartet still sound like nothing you ever heard before. The Mercury nominated East London based outfit’s unique music has expanded to embrace new sonic territories. Drawing on the inspiration of electronica, ambient, classical and dance music as they take their strange, beautiful, cinematic, future music to exciting new vistas where the inspiration of Burial, Mount Kimbie and Flying Lotus rubs shoulders with the textures of Arve Henriksen and Bon Iver and echoes of Steve Reich and Max Richter. But all underpinned by a shared joy in collective music making as the band push their inimitable music into the future.

The new Kings Of Leon documentary ‘Talihina Sky’ is out to buy on DVD, Blu Ray and DDL. It’s a phenomenal warts an’ all film charting the rise and rise of the Followill brothers and their cousin as they go from messing around in their Nashville garage to headlining London’s 02 Arena and the largest festivals around the world. Highly Recommended. Watch some clips below. More info at www.talihinasky.co.uk

The Face of Mount Molehill is the magnificent new album from the Neil Cowley Trio. Following on from the trio’s critically-acclaimed 2010 release, Radio Silence, this new recording looks set to launch the music of Neil Cowley yet further into the listening public’s consciousness.

Nourishing his fondness for grand, commanding sounds, Cowley has begun a love affair with orchestration. Having spent the past year writing and arranging specifically for his trio and strings, he records, for the first time ever, with a string ensemble.

The music is expansive, dynamic and deeply engaging. With the addition of soundscape textures from guitarist Leo Abrahams, (renowned for his collaborative work with Brian Eno) the Face of Mount Molehill represents a substantial shift in direction. Comprising 12 original tracks, the album takes the listener on an exciting musical journey from pomp and splendour to poignant, lyrical episodes; from sprightly and whimsical to powerful, rhythmic melodies.
