Ravens & Chimes

Grown from the halls of NYU, in the midst of one of New York City's harshest winters, Ravens & Chimes debut album, Reichenbach Falls, introduces a youthful, optimistic lightness in the form of a record packed with a series of eclectic and ear-grabbing tunes. Perhaps influenced by many a dark, snowy night in that winter of 2005, Ravens & Chimes dig out a catchy set of instrumentally-charged melodies that show their developed blend of unconventional sound. CMJ called Ravens & Chimes "beautiful" and "unique" evoking comparisons at times to either Wolf Parade or Voxtrot.

Judda

There are two artists named Judda:
1) A fairly recent DNB producer with releases on modulation. His sound is grimey, deep and minimal!
2)Audiences ARE scared of Judda. People don't want to set foot on the dancefloor in case the mohawked Pedro assualts them. Wax often has a scewdriver rammed through his nose for the occasion, He looks like Vic Rattlehead. Judda are difficult to interview: they dislike talking about music or lyrics.
