Don't Forget to Enter our Latest Contest! PMA is giving away 6 Mixtape Flash Drives!
“No need to ask my name to figure out how cool I am.”
No names are necessary for the following acts. You may have never heard of them but they sure are great. Here are the 8 Best Acts You’ve Never Heard Of.
8. John Neilson - Wishing Well (YSI) - John Nielson is just perfect for you singer/songwriter buffs out there. “Wishing Well” is a heartfelt, moving ballad that John (being the nice guy that he is) is giving away for free. John’s voice is unique and quite distinguishing.
7. Peasant - The Wind (YSI) - Peasant aka Damien DeRose records with such delicacy and solicitousness that every harmony is a deliberate, brilliant kick in the pants.
6. Josiah Wordsworth - Witch Hunt (YSI) - Josiah Wordsworth is a serving model to nonverbal storytelling. His music is chaotic, dark, menacing, cool, and catchy. His new EP, Blue State is magic in the making, the birth of a new generation of piano lovers.
5. Kaiser Chiefs - Love’s Not A Competition (But I’m Winning) (Nelsen Grover remix) (YSI) - Nelsen Grover is a DJ/Producer from The Netherlands who happens to dig PMA! (yes, I feel special). Well as it turns out, I really dig his Kaiser Chiefs remix.
4. The Dance Inc. - The Boy Who FUKKK OFF REMIX (YSI) - Name sound familiar? Yeah thought so, might’ve caught them playing with LCD Soundsystem or !!!.
3. Uh Huh, Radio - 4am (YSI) “It’s basically pop in an electric blanket with a pretty heavy focus on strange lyrics (”Lily Allen” for instance) and a dirty, slim sound. But the latest song is a really downplayed, sweet pop/pinkfloyd/jens lekman balade of a sorts. It’s called ‘4am’”
2. Plimsouls - As It Happened (YSI) - “I don’t sound like I want to be on Ed Banger. That has to count for something, right?” Hell yeah it does! http://www.myspace.com/dancewithplimsouls
1. Spitzer - Disco Biscuits (YSI) - Hell, I don’t know who they are but I sure know I am loving what I feel when I blast Spitzer on the iPod. I hope we hear a lot more from Damien and Matthieu Bregere. Can’t wait for their debut EP “Rollercoaster”.
