Milagres - 'Jeweled Cave' is released on Monday 10th March 2014!
“a blissful fusion of Wild Beasts and Sparks, with songs full of imagery to lose yourself in” **** Guardian
‘Jeweled Cave’ is the stunning new single from Brooklyn brooders Milagres and set for release on 10 March 2014. It’s a highlight from their upcoming second album ‘Violent Light’ set to be released on Memphis Industries on February 25 2014.
If the last album (‘Glowing Mouth’) from Brooklyn brooders Milagres was an essay on human frailty, composed in a haze of Vicodin from a hospital bed after a climbing accident left lead vocalist Kyle Wilson incapacitated for months, the follow-up is about living life – a brave, bold fuck-you to mortality that seeps sex from its pores and dazzles in its gossamer alt-pop. “We could take a trip into a new country,” he teases on Urban Eunuchs, but forget that.
‘Violent Light’ is the only record you’ll hear this year (or any other) to borrow from both Heroes-era Bowie and Southern rap hooligan Waka Flocka Flame (“I love the way his rhythm tracks just prattle on and on without repeating themselves, somehow never sounding overcomplicated” says Wilson), this new full-length release from the band sounds like a trip into another universe, full of trippy analogue synths, manipulated samples, punchy distorted guitars and heavy brass orchestrations.
Milagres are lead singer / guitarist Kyle Wilson, producer and bass player Fraser McCulloch, keyboard player Chris Brazee and drummer Paul Payabyab.
‘New Morning’ is the product of two days spent recording at Camden’s legendary Roundhouse, as part of their 30/30 Project. It follows on from the introductory track ‘All The Seas’ (http://bit.ly/1kbVVlp) which picked up plaudits from Lauren Laverne and Tom Robinson at BBC 6Music as well as ample blog adoration from the likes of For Folk's Sake and Mad Mackerel respectively.
Indie-folk outfit Suntrapp began as vocalist Jake Houlsby’s response against the greyness and melancholy of his previous musical output; a positive and hopeful change of outlook from him, lyrically and melodically. Jake soon began firming up his invigorating ideas with the help of producer and former Detroit Social Club frontman, David Burn; early demo ‘Fuel For The Fire’ secured him a spot at Generator’s Evolution Emerging showcase in May before debut release ‘All The Seas’ helped land him the North-East’s prestigious Alan Hull Award for songwriting.
The release will be followed by a very special Hub Session at The Roundhouse Rising Festival on February 21st, alongside previous 30/30 contributor Ajimal.
Produced by Marc Pell and Tom Wegg-Prosser
Engineered by Cameron Deas

Described as "The New Wave of the post-punk BritishInvasion".
The band consists of:
Mark Whinkless - Guitarist / Vocalist
Steveo Potter - Guitarist / Vocalist
Rob Ellis - Bassist /
Drew Winfield - Drummer / Vocalist
In May 2012 Super73 realised that between all four members, with the experience that all members bring, they should collaborate and create a sound fusion between varying influences. They all write together.
After five months of planning and preparation, honing a full set of material and rehearsing religiously, Super73 launched their online presence in October.
Super73 started out life by playing two shows in London. One at The Cavendish Arms, and the other as part of the Oxjam Chiswick lineup, the festival had support from the infamous Iron Maiden front man, Bruce Dickinson.
Following the London debut, Super73 have travelled around the country showcasing their brand of high energy, melodic heavy rock, with a view to gaining more exposure and securing a tenacious following.
As a result, Super73 have played support to welsh Rockers Attack!Attack! as part of their farewell tour, up and coming Arcane Roots, and well established US Band Everclear.
Behind the scenes, Super73 have agained a sync agreement with US Pro Wrestling company Ring Of Honor Wrestling, becoming the entrance theme for a female competitor Veda Scott.
As well as sponsorship agreements from Fly53 Clothing and Vocalzone, Rufus Guitars UK, will be producing a one-off Rufus73 model.
The band have already received excellent feedback and opportunities from BBC Introducing in the East Midlands, where the program was the first to get the exclusive play of "There Or Thereabouts", the single launch from the new E.P.
This release will also mark a unique adventure the band will be embarking on. On October 19th 2013, In aid of the Oxfam charity, the band will be attempting to do 4 shows in one day, titled "The Tour In A Day".
It will be hitting different cities in the UK, in one day. This particular project has gained exposure, and support from Fly53 who have agreed to promote and sponsor the tour.
With new content being uploaded and a strong online fan base, Super73 currently have the ears twitching of individuals and fans alike and with new releases planned and videos in the wings, the future looks promising.

Featured on the "Native" ep.
Suzuki/Method are Brothers and founders Adam and Glen Leishman, Michael Mathews, David Boyd and Ben Hounslow.
Together they have created a sonic landscape where anything and everything coexists simultaneously and seamlessly.
A place where 30 years of dance music culture collides with a wall of screaming guitars and lyrics question and lay blame in equal measure. Crucially however it is the principled and intelligent approach to pop music that make this Salford band so appealing to such a large demographic, and hard to ignore.
Drawing from a diverse palate of influences ranging from Daft Punk to The Smiths (by way of guitar lines that wouldn’t be out of place on a Parliament record) there is something almost Darwinian in their sound selections and arrangements, where in only the strongest hooks make the final cut.
Debut single Country Cousins is a cerebral dance floor powerhouse. Swelling bass lines and cast iron drum beats draped in lush synth textures provide a pitch perfect soundtrack to Vocalist Adam’s forlorn tale of youth in crisis.
Recently signed to A1(M) Records, Country Cousins is the first offering of new debut EP 'NATIVE', produced by David Tolan (Delphic, New Order, Primal scream) and Jim Spencer (The Doves, The Vaccines, 808 State) is a statement of intent, a rallying cry from a cliché breaking band destined to mark their mark in 2013.

Alex Lato who is based in London, England.
Known by many as the lead singer of The Fuse who have supported the likes of UB40 and Foreigner, Alex Lato now releases his debut solo album, Infamous, with the first single from it being Hurt You.
Already on rotation on 32 major radio stations in Northern Belgium, Hurt You and the rest of the album may not have even been recorded following airport mix-ups when checking out a studio in Morocco and leaving money at cashpoints, not to mention freakily bumping into previous record label owners …. Following these incidents and a number more during the recordings, Alex was quoted as saying; Every step of the way has felt like a leap into the unknown. You just have to keep leaping, because when you are in the air, the dark isn't so scary, and sometimes you see the light…
The album is now available to purchase on iTunes and all other major download stores. Further details on this as well as forthcoming gig dates can be found on his website www.alexlato.co.uk or you can follow him on Facebook at www.facebook.com/alexlato
Marco Argiro
New Yorker Marco Argiro is now presenting his brand new single, ‘Love’ - a euphonious high-power three-minuter under the name "Marco with Love"
The track is expected on Valentine's Day along with a music video, which can currently be seen on YouTube.
‘Love’, like many of Argiro’s productions takes the listener on a stroll down memory lane while also maintaining an extremely recognisably present nature.
A flair of guitars, piano and first-rate basslines fashion the ultra melodic and catchy temperament of the track.
And that's not to mention the vocals and writing behind it, the central focus of the track and video - Argiro is destined for the charts and international radio play.
The new tune comes as the title song for the album - also named ‘Love’ - with the writer claiming the record represents love “in all variations - young love, faltering love and love’s evolution over time.”
He has cited his main influences as rock lords The Beatles, Tom Petty and The Kinks.
Marco made a name for himself after filling in on lead vocals for Marky Ramone’s Blitzkrieg. As a life-long Ramones fan, this was a dream come true.
While performing and writing in Le Mood and The Killing Floor, he has worked up a reputation for possessing hunger, energy and passion like no other.
He has garnered a large repertoire of praise from the music news media landscape.
Baeble Music wrote, on ‘Love’: “The song and video, which we've got the exclusive first look at here, has a nice streetsmart, electric boogie to it, courtesy of the singer's cited influences of legendary artists like Tom Petty and The Kinks.
“We're going to namecheck a few more; The Strokes, Chuck Berry...why not? Argiro's certainly taking cues from all the right places...no bigger than the message that ripples through the tune.”
Rust Music said: “Love is an incredibly solid collection of songs that pierce your heart and soul and make you realize that [Argiro] is one of the timeless talents of our modern moment.
“You must have a solid foundation if you want to build to the heavens, and Argiro reaches fantastic heights with Love.”
And regarding the album, Rust Music added: “This is a significant release on a global stage and it’s an album that will be relevant, fresh and vibrant both right now and forever. Very Highly Recommended.”
BBC Guernsey commented: “Marco Argiro’s amazing charisma blasted from the stage, capturing anyone in its path.”
“His latest album, Love, is nine tracks of energy that can only come from
an experienced rocker,” The Aquarian added.
Revolution 360 said: “Every now and then you will find a moment of calm and easy sailing. Where you can take breath and enjoy simply existing. Marco Argiro is that tranquil moment presented in sound. "
Planet Stereo commented: “Overall, Love comes as a pleasant surprise. Marco Argiro has given listeners an album that they will not only enjoy, but feel. And in the end, isn’t that the beauty of music?"
“Marco Argiro is a unique and phenomenal star on stage and even more mystical when his band Love rocks out with him,” said Sonic Eclectic.
“’Love' certainly is well versed in its classic rock roots, but also puts Argio alongside contemporaries such as Jesse Malin, Greg Dulli and Jeff Tweedy,” The Sound of Confusion wrote.
Velvet Rope Magazine said: “Love gives plenty of nods to the melancholytinged, folk influenced rock of the late 60′s and 70′s, while managing to distance itself enough to still feel relevant to the modern music scene.”
“Brooklyn’s own confessional heartland rock anthem,” The Deli NYC wrote.
Thanks for listening, if you require further information or an interview with Marco, just ask! We have a limited run of blue vinyl of the album and CD copies available upon request, so get in touch if you want a physical item:-)
