Barnaby Bennett is a Canadian musician with a prolific track record of late. His catalog is a deep, genre-hopping body of work that is full of forays into everything from traditional folk, psychedelic pop, country rock, to experimental synthesizer music. At times, his tracks are even a kaleidoscopic patchwork of all these types of sounds.
Barnaby’s forthcoming Umor Rex Records release Shadows & Reflections: An Anthology is a 20 track collection highlighting some of the brightest moments from his back catalog. Listen at http://barnabybennett.bandcamp.com/ & http://www.soundcloud.com/barnaby-bennett
Miró Belle
Miró Belle is San Diego-based artist Jeff Tuyay, and he comes bearing melodic merry-go-round pop a la Emperor Tomato Ketchup for your summertime enjoyment. Originally premiered on Portals, the Kiss This Vol. 0 EP follows on the heels of Kiss This Vol. 1, Vol. 2, and Vol. 3, which are equally clever and still available (for free!) on Belle’s Bandycamp.
Monokino
The sound of Amsterdam (Holland) based band Monokino has been spiced up in a rather kitschy way with a combination of melodious high pitched vocals, static keyboard, rock guitar and electronic/acoustic drum segments. In Holland, China and Germany, Monokino has received both critical and public acclaim for its indie music. Monokino is known for its distinct musical identity playing electronic pop music. Monokino is signed to Modern Sky, China’s largest independent record label. Monokino’s music is released by Konkurrent/My First Sonny Weissmuller in Benelux countries.
