Special recreation wish club

The wish club have often described their music as "Some pretty sweet music, about some pretty challenging topics, straight out of canterbury.", whereas those unlucky enough to have experienced this tour de force of brightly coloured audio-malice first hand may find themselves questioning what little faith they have been left with after the torture has ended. "Quite possibly, the worst thing i have ever heard. Where is my noose? There is no god"

Elizabeth Walling

Here are some R E V I E W S
(be warned there is comparison to Kate Bush, Bjork AND Enya... thank god the expression 'quirky female' wasn't in there too). "Tonight’s host, Elizabeth Walling, is equally excellent. Her voice is winter picture postcard purity personified – it seems to frost over, bewitch and envelop her songs which range from, rather aptly, Vespertine style choral glitch to Kate Bush goes Balkan folk within the tidy confines of a short set. It’s effortlessly good and the perfectly prefigures the glacial grace Valgeir serves up. "

The Outside Agency

The Outside Agency are DJ Hidden and Eye-D, hardcore and drum & bass artists from Goes, Netherlands. The Producers As true dissidents within the hardcore scene, The Outside Agency has always had its own unique sound. This was already evident on their first release, which they produced for Mokum Records in 1996. After that period hardcore suffered a drastic change in direction and the two members of TOA no longer felt at home in the genre and focused their attention on drum & bass instead.

the host

Since forming in 2006, The Host has become a staple of the Hard Rock scene in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA. What started out as a labor of love for the four-piece has become an outright obsession. "The need to write and perform outweighs anything else in our lives, and we work hard to ensure that everything we do has a special quality to it," says Host singer, Chris Charlton. Drawing on a full spectrum of musical influences, The Host's overall sound lies around the edges of bands like Muse, The Mars Volta, and Queens of the Stone Age.
