New Navy - Tapioca

From the 'whistle while you work' opening of 'Zimbabwe', the summer grooves of 'Tapioca' to the dramatic crescendo of 'Oceans', New Navy’s debut ‘Uluwatu’ EP  demonstrates the Australian bands powerful songwriting ability and consistent style.

New Navy balance sparkly guitars with front man Ben McInerny's smooth vocals, delivering strong bass-lines and breezy indie grooves to great effect. They have received impressive early support from radio and media with comparisons to Foals, The Whitest Boy Alive and Cold War Kids when talking about this promising young 4 piece.

New Navy have come a long way since the release of their three-track demo last year, which saw them take out the JD set, hold the number one position on Triple J unearthed charts and share stages with the likes of Wolfmother, The Philly J's, Midnight Juggernaughts, The Holidays and The Scare.


NME – “Foals go tropical.”

Russh Magazine - “...it’s the kind of thing that makes you smile, wide and hard, no matter how late you’re running or how bad the traffic is.”

Richard Kingsmill (Triple J) - "5/5 Wow! You weren't kidding about the clean guitars. The tiny guitar licks in this song (Zimbabwe) are really clever. And percussion has become the new lead guitar break!"

Who Are You

Le Coq Sportif and Future Classic have joined forces again for a huge finale in their series of Australian covers of classic French artists.

The fourth instalment is from Sydney band New Navy - recently picked by the Sydney Morning Herald as 2012's 'Next Big Thing' - doing a very special cover of Télépopmusik's 'Breathe'.

Télépopmusik are a French trio that established a new sound in French electronic music in the early 2000's with their peers and compatriots Air, Le Rythmes Digitales and Dimitri From Paris. 'Breathe' featured the guest vocals of singer Angela McCluskey on the group's debut album 'Genetic World' and went on to break into the US and UK charts and be nominated for a Grammy Award in 'Best Dance Recording'.

New Navy have stripped out all the electronic elements of the original and replaced with their signature clean bright guitars, island percussion and Ben McInerney's rich vocals. New Navy took some seriously big strides in 2011 with their summer hits 'Zimbabwe' and 'Tapioca' carving up national youth broadcaster triple j and community stations all year and nabbing a spot on the prestigious triple j Hottest 100 list.

095 LA FACTORIA - PERDONAME FT EDDY LOVER [ DJ ZTONY CORTE 2012 ]

Lonerism

Elephant

CITIZENS! met, tragically, at a house party. Lawrence was trying to chat up the host, Tom was there trying to impress a date. They both failed miserably. But Tom did walk in on Lawrence and Mike sitting, drunk, and, alone, listening to music. They foolishly decided to form a band. So, thanks to a couple of providential female rejections CITIZENS! came into existence.

They say there are a few things that they all agree on: 
‘We actually enjoy hanging out with each other.’ (Martyn)
‘Some of us are too mal-adjusted to be able to do anything else, and the rest of us are getting there fast.’ (Thom)
‘There are two things that really, really piss us off: REVIVALISM and UGLY POP. Bands only make two kinds of music these days: Pointless revivals of subcultures past, or ugly, inhumane cynical pop.’ (Tom)
 ‘Pop is not a dirty word. It’s a holy one.’ (Mike)
‘Death to Guetta’ (Lawrence)
They thought that a band needed to come along with the guts to make imaginative pop music, but to do it with soul and integrity, 
In order to be able to make this music they had to make what Tom calls ‘some stupid decisions.’ ‘Stupid,’ because it means Tom is still working as a kitchen porter, Lawrence is still making coffees and Martyn is still on the dole.
They signed to an indie label who ‘wouldn’t tell us what to do,’ recorded the album in a house, played the whole thing live, got drunk, fought over lyrics and didn’t edit out the mistakes.
The name is a call to arms, a statement, a mark in the sand.

‘It’s us against the world,’ Lawrence says, ‘we make our own rules and we take them very seriously. But it works because we don’t take ourselves seriously while we do it.’

They treated recording like a game, an experiment. They asked questions that other bands weren’t asking, and mixed elements they hadn’t heard mixed before. Most importantly they wouldn’t allow themselves to mimic any particular moment from decades past.
Instead of REVIVALISM, they stand for ECLECTICISM.
Tom says ‘We all live in London. It was supposed to be an impression of the different experiences of living in the city. That was the plan, but now its finished all the songs seem to be about sex. I wonder what that says about us?’

'It's Not Over' is the lastest single from Future Classic's newest signing, Panama. It was recorded in Los Angeles with super producer, Eric Broucek of DFA Records fame (Holy Ghost, LCD Soundsystem).

Steeped in splashes of yacht rock, hopeful house music and an avid appreciation for the ʻ80s, Panama make music that is as brimming with a quiet, golden nostalgia as it is bright and anthemic in its delivery.

The 'It's Not Over' film clip, cast and shot in Berlin, debuted on The Fader on October 4, 2012. Watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMKZIaIN7O4

Meet The Band

All I Heard

Recorded in just six days at Brighton Electric in September 2010, "As The Spirit Wanes" will be released in the UK on January 31st, 2011. Whilst from the outside last year has looked rosy for Codes In The Clouds with a remix album release, successful tours and festival slots, it’s also been a difficult year behind the scenes. Yet personal loss has proven a collective driving force, bringing the band closer as a group and shaping their surprisingly optimistic second offering:

“It’s not that the album has a set concept or theme, it’s just that each member of the band went through similar experiences around the same sort of time. So naturally, this is reflected in the album. We all feel really close to it, and it’s definitely the music we want to make. It’s a very personal record to us and we feel it’s a big step forward from the first release. The songs are definitely a better reflection of us as a collective of people. Hopefully others will identify with the ideas within the record and can relate it to their own experiences.”

Co-produced by Erased Tapes initiator Robert Raths and label mate Ryan West, then mastered by Nils Frahm at his studio in Berlin, "As The Spirit Wanes" could almost be described as a family affair. Even the artwork has been inspired by the band’s time in Iceland, performing as part of the Erased Tapes label night at Iceland Airwaves 2010. Most importantly, it’s all about songs with As The Spirit Wanes offering its listener stunning melodies and razor-sharp hooks. From the Beach Boys pop appeal of "Look Back, Look Up" to the euphoric "Washington", down to the emotionally charged two-minute hymn "If I’d Have Known This Was The Last", Codes In The Clouds embody their genre in its most rewarding form.
‘Delicate guitar-focussed passages that bloom and explode with a primitive, dramatic beauty...with "Look Back, Look Up" as close as the genre gets to pop’ *** – UNCUT
