LCMDF

LCMDF are the Finnish Emma and Mia Kemppainen. If a bell is ringing, it could well be that you recognise this duo as two thirds of 2008's gnarliest electro merchants Le Corps Mince de Françoise. But after a streamlining of both moniker and line-up, the bandit mask face-paint is no more and this time the vibeometer has been clicked firmly onto heady good-times. With a sudden synth stab there is an eruption of technicolor energy and somehow the world is just feeling a much poppier place.

Damngod

Damngod is a business city five piece formed in 2007 by ex-members of before the dawn and morning after. The band plays punk-influenced metal and is lyrically on the left side of the path as the lyrics are strongly anti-religion and anti-human.

Top Billin

Fifteen thousand screaming fans, speakers banging loud as thunder, fireworks and pyrotechnics flying in the air like it’s new year’s eve. Four dudes in tight leather pants, stroking power chords from stratocasters and blasting double bass drums… Oh wait, that was Van Halen at the San Diego Sports Arena in 1981. Never mind that… But Top Billin are equally hot. In fact – the DJ collective consisting of guys named Sir Nenis, Fiskars, Flipperi, Anonymous & J-Laini, Top Billin is the closest thing to club phenomenon ever to come from Finland.
