Slutty Fringe Presents… NEW!
Having just celebrated their 4th birthday, bloggers Slutty Fringe are looking to the future and launching a brand spanking new quarterly compilation, fanzine and party, appropriately called NEW!
A celebration of the best new electro/indie/disco bands, DJs and producers around. NEW! Will be showcasing those making their first tender step out of their garages to acts on the verge of superstardom, and to kick things off they’ve pulled together a trio of acts who are all destined for greatness.
Headlining the main room are Silver Columns, the synth pop duo who burst onto the scene earlier this year with the Joe Goddard (Hot Chip) produced slice of falsetto genius Browbeaten. Since then they’ve signed to Moshi Moshi and released the critically acclaimed album Yes, And Dance.
They’re joined by Brighton’s :Kinema: who arrive hot off the back of their debut single, Circles. Having been compared to the likes of Phoenix and Hot Chip, this soulful disco trio are now being tipped for big things with everyone from The Guardian to Dummy falling for their superior pop charms.
Finally we have Danimal Kingdom, the solo project of Dan Murtha, having previously provided vocals on Kissy Sell Out’s debut album, Dan is now making a name for himself with his hotly tipped electro-art-pop, and gearing up for the release of his debut single later this year.
Supplying the sounds between the bands we have DJs from Moshi Moshi Records, who having launched the likes of Hot Chip, James Yuill, Casiokids and Florence + The Machine onto the world know more than a thing or two about discovering hot new things.
Meanwhile keeping the beat going all night in the Pink Bar we have the Filthy Dukes. Taking time out from their Kill Em All night at Fabric, itself a launch pad for many a new act, they’ll be showing off the talents that have made them in demand DJs the world over and that ensured their debut album Nonsense in the Dark was critically acclaimed by everyone from DJ to The Daily Mail.
Joining them mixing up a heady brew of disco, house and electro we have hosts Slutty Fringe (aka Tony Poland and John Power Jr) and acclaimed production/DJ team Lovers & Gamblers, whose recent credits have included remixes for the likes of Marina & The Diamonds and Young Fathers.
