Les Robots is the alien outfit of programmed bots. It consists of mechanic writers duo D.V.R. and R-John and live-assets Pete-R and C.A.S.E. When we heard their first songs “Do The Robot!” and “One Way Ticket To The Moon” we could not resist to throw it on a 45! So we did (still available by the way!). Now the second one is on the way, before the first one sunk in. A batch of 300 copies will be pressed on 7” vinyl.

But still, who are these robots? What are they doing here? And what do they want? Their precise whereabouts are unknown, yet what is known is that they hide out somewhere in The Netherlands ready to lure in their prey, and just when you are getting into that sound it hits you in the back of your head.

JPDC is a project of multi-instrumentalist Emmanuel Alias of XS Studio. Its strange, instense and elevating mix of garage, psychedelic, blues, southern rock and glam rock make this release highly exciting, yet beautiful. The 45 embodies a dreamy sadness that feels like Heroes by Bowie, while maintaining that powerful garage grit. Think of a blend of Natural Child, T.Rex, The Night Beats and The Velvet Underground. Two digital EP’s have been released so far “MAAAAD” and “Cocobongo”. From the last EP both songs were taken to make this 7-inch release. As they say “It gives you the desire to take Steve McQueen’s Mustang and take on Route 66 like Kowalski drives his Challenger to vanishing point!”.

The 7″ will be pressed in a batch of 300 numbered copies as you may expect from us by now. The artwork for the 7″ has been made by Rens Muis of 75B.

As they wrote in their bio: “The Ghetto Blasters plan on going ape in a town near you soon, leaving a trail of empty bottles, infuriated douchebags, and confused bystanders in their wake.” The Ghetto Blasters are Justin Savage on guitar and vocals, Buddha on guitar, Terry Clouse on bass and Patrick Wilkey on drums. The band hails from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. It is not the first band the band members play in. Some of these bands are or were: The Fast Boys, Tuff Tits, and the Drug Czars.

On December 15 The Ghetto Blasters will throw a release party at Santamania in Cincinnati, Ohio (USA). Go see them!

Les Robots are programmed masterminds D.V.R. and R-JoHN backed up by their live assisting bots Pete-R and C.A.S.E. Who programmed these robots? That’s officially unknown and unofficially; classified, though people do speculate that it might be legendary producer Joe Meek. Whoever or whatever programmed these mechanical men does have a soft spot for mental earthlings like The Shadows, The Ventures, Terry Terauchi, Booker T & The MG’s, Link Wray and various composers of sixties cinema soundtracks.

On Friday October 19 Les Robots can be seen on stage for the first time at Left Of The Dial in Rotterdam, where we will have a “Spazz Out!” on lightship Vessel 11. Next to Les Robots label mates Pig Frenzy and J.C. Thomaz & The Missing Slippers will take the stage. The “Spazz Out!” is part of the official program of the festival.

New Vogue is the project of Max and Chance (ex-Sonic Avenues). On May 17 they released a first set of new tracks as New Vogue on a self-titled album cassette. All songs written, recorded and produced by Max and Chance under the influence of Talking Heads, The Fall and Swell Maps. Mastered by Mikey Young. Critics took a like in New Vogue; Steve Adamyk wrote in Razorcake: “The Songs are upbeat and punchy, but lean on a post-punk vibe and rawness that can’t be ignored.” And D.I.Y. rock’n’roll reviewer on YouTube Anti, formerly known as Jimmy, wrote about the tape on his channel: “New Vogue is sheer chaos contained in a compact cassette, a duplicitous undertaking that regularly falters between ethereal, summery vibes and a new-wave punk intensity…”. When we heard these recordings ourself we went totally spazz! The songs “Birdcage (Slap Yourself Free)” and “Space Junk” of this album will be pressed on vinyl.

As written in their bio “…you can expect to see the group in a five-headed configuration, performing live music concerts across America and Europe in the nearish future.” We can’t wait to see them live!
