Info 


Reed-Ritchotte who are based in California, USA.

The end result is the album Finally which includes a core group of musicians and special guests, and has been described as being a collection of classically styled Blues based Rock.
Details on how you can purchase the album along with additional information on Reed-Ritchotte can be found on their website www.reed-ritchotte.bandcamp.com


The Landed are due to release their new evocative new single, ‘The World was Sleeping’.
The track is due out this Spring, on March 3 - and fans and critics alike are excited.
Poised with style, the track balances country and acoustic well, in a rock-like fashion - ultimately building to an profound crescendo.
Lead vocalist Paul has a voice that’s full of character, sensitive and rich - and it is empowered by the organic, subtle harmonies in the extremely-catchy chorus.
‘The World was Sleeping’ is a very suave and contemporary lick on a matured genre. It lures the listener in with the first pick of the string - and will make one listen again.
The band have been together for two years, and have picked up airplay on BBC 6 Music, collaborated with huge international producers.
Critics have been overwhelmed with the performances from the Essex outfit, who have picked up a reputation as a sensational live act.
Building on their success, The Landed will be kicking 2014 off with the recording of brand new content, as well as a slot at the revered Canadian Music Week in Toronto in May.
They have claimed 2014 will be a massive year for them - and it’s not hard to believe they’re telling the truth.

Taken at face value, ‘The Roll EP’ is a peak time club techno release, developed for those intense workout moments clubbers punters pay good money to experience. However, it also featuring cross genre remixes to suit a wide range of tastes and Dj technical styles.

In the previous six years, the producer, Diarmaid O Meara – DOM1, has released over a hundred tracks, three albums, has had over a dozen vinyl releases, holds current residencies in Berlins infamous RAW Temple, and also owns a cornerstone Techno label and club-night, Gobsmacked. ‘The Roll EP’ comes as his first major release in 2014… and will be followed up by multiple vinyl and digital releases on various worldwide labels. Most notably on Portugal’s Naked Lunch, Germany’s Nachtstrom Schallplatten, and Starkstrom Schallplatten, Austria’s Elmart Rec, Chicago based ‘Slap Jaxx’ and his own ‘Gobsmacked’ label.

Diarmaid’s weekly international gig schedule gives the opportunity to test and develop releases on the fly, especially as elements of his own three turntable performances – where his own productions make up a prominent third to half of his Dj sets. The original Roll track was originally developed and refined as a tool for his sets, then redeveloped into a releasable track over a number of years. As a result of this long development, the track has already been experienced and danced to by tens of thousands of avid techno fans across Europe, whilst also receiving notable support on the circuit.

The EP remixers include the prominent and highly acclaimed Ortin Cam (I Love Techno, Belgium) and Patrick DSP (Kne’Deep, Djax it Up, Canada). They join the award-winning production heavyweight from Kosovo, Vegim, and the Clutch Trax label owners, Danny Smith, and Clutch Slip vs Soundset.

RAGLANS
Irish indie-folk four-piece Raglans have undergone a meteoric rise in popularity since their inception in 2010, going from a crowd pleasing, gig-opening favourite at Dublin's Whelan's hotspot to garnering widespread recognition across the UK.
Multi-instrumentalist and lead vocalist Stephen Kelly jokes about the band's conception, pinching Rhos Horan (bass, backing vocals) from his old band and setting off to the capital to meet Conn O' Ruanaidh (drums, backing vocals) and most recent addition Sean O'Brien (lead guitar, backing vocals) to begin rehearsing, touring Ireland and putting the name out there. “We recorded a demo of our first song 'Down,' and that was that, we were Raglans.”
The name? “It came from a famous Patrick Kavanagh poem 'On Raglan Road'. Any school student from Ireland would be able to tell you about that poem, so I guess it stems from being Irish, remembering our roots and how we started out.”
Fast forward a year on the Dublin circuit and the band were invited to spend a week producing and recording with the legendary Morrissey collaborator Boz Boorer. “That was amazing, out in the mountains of Portugal, an hour's drive from the nearest shop,” says 24 year-old Stephen. “That was our first real exposure, and certainly helped us focus on the musical direction we wanted to take.”
With a host of new material under their belt, the four lads set to work on their debut EP 'Long Live,' drawing influence from contemporary folk/indie bands as well as heavier rock artists. As Stephen exp
