Deep Space was created in the mystical wee hours of acid trips and seances within the desert lands of Austin TX, 2012. Women moan & men scream but there's no sound to be found out here in Deep Space. "Evil Dreams" is the upcoming sophomore release to the ground breaking "Cosmic Waves", a psychedelic trip that was released early February 2013. Deep Space stays true to their outer space psychedelic influences, conjuring up a mix of radioactive sounds, from England's Spacemen 3 to Austin's psychedelic rock pioneers, The 13th Floor Elevators.
Ruby and The Vines
Ruby and the Vines, fronted by vocalist/bassist Binisa Bonner, fuse influences as diverse as Congolese roots music, jazz, afro-beat and reggae.

Hotly tipped by Max Reinhardt (The Shrine, BBC Late Junction) as a ''wild, hot and about to happen new trio", Ruby and the Vines debuted their unique brand of afro-rock in June 2010 to great acclaim at the Celebrating Sanctuary festival, hosted by BBC London.
