There are three bands with the name Telex: 1. The Belgian synthpop group Telex was formed in 1978 by Marc Moulin, Dan Lacksman and Michel Moers, with the intention of "Making something really European, different from rock, without guitar - and the idea was electronic music." (Marc Moulin) Mixing the aesthetics of disco, punk and experimental electronic music, they released a stripped-down synthesized cover version of "Twist à St. Tropez" by Les Chats Sauvages.

Arbelos plays folk rock with science fiction and space travel themes. The band was formed in 2007 by long time friends Mark Toner and Noel Chidwick, both astronomers, who produced the album Portraits in Stone in early 2008.

Atreides

Wie zegt dat de Nederlandse bandscene weinig te bieden heeft, heeft Atreides nog niet gehoord. Deze formatie van vier jongens en een zangeres staat garant voor bijzonder energieke live performances waarbij zowel publiek als band compleet in de muziek opgaat. De nummers doen in sfeer en toegankelijkheid denken aan Alter Bridge of Paramore, maar met gitaarsolo’s die variëren tussen Eddie van Halen en John Mayer. Ook weerklinkt af en toe de kalme, volle sound van Angels & Airwaves, maar toch staan veel nummers zo stevig als een huis in de stijl van Extreme of Story Of The Year.

Space Ritual

Space Ritual is a rock band formed by former Hawkwind singer and saxophonist Nik Turner. It routinely features former Hawkwind musicians and plays old Hawkwind tracks. The group was originally called xHawkwind but this was changed following legal action by Turner's old Hawkwind co-founder Dave Brock.
