★ HOLYF**K ★
“Holy F**k blasted out opulent streams of saturated melody, clouds of glitter and confetti, nitrous-boosted dance dynamics…Holy lovelovelovelove set the bar awfully high.” [Pitchfork Media April 2006]
Where Holy F**k in the past were a rotating cast of musicians, Latin showcases for the first time their consistent touring line up. Drummer Matt Schulz and bass player Matt McQuaid provide a complex rhythm foundation that at times feels like an invisible hand leading you through a dark hedge maze. Perhaps an excessive feat for most, but this provides the ideal underpinning as Brian Borcherdt and Graham Walsh merge a twin effects/feedback tangle that is equal parts entrancing and inspiring.
With high praise from peers, big name endorsements and ascension on festival bills, Holy F**k have the divine right to be profane. With elder music luminaries Thom Yorke and Lou Reed passing on kind words about studio recordings and live performances, its no wonder Holy lovelovelovelove have become sought after.
The last couple years have seen them on the road with acts like M.I.A., Wolf Parade, Clinic, !!!, Mouse on Mars, Cornelius, and Super Furry Animals. Holy F**k have been invited to play some of the best festivals like Glastonbury, Lollapalooza, Reading and Leeds, Roskilde, Coachella, All Tomorrows Parties, as well as the Montreal Jazz. Holy F**k was even hailed by NME as one of the top three bands to appear on the John Peel Stage at Glastonbury.

★ KLAXONS ★
The London-based Klaxons feature the combined talents of Jamie Reynolds, James Righton, and Simon Taylor. Despite being a rock band at the core, Klaxons are heavily influenced by dance music, particularly the late-'80s/early-'90s U.K. rave movement. (Reynolds has even dubbed his band "nu-rave" to further emphasize the inspiration.)
By the time Klaxons released their second low-key single, they had become a favorite of publications such as NME and wound up signing with Polydor Records. As the group set to work on its first album, the Modular label issued a brief singles compilation entitled Xan Valleys in late 2006.
Myths of the Near Future, the full-length debut, was then released in early 2007 on both sides of the Atlantic. That same year, Myths of the Near Future won the coveted Mercury Prize. In 2008, Klaxons began work recording new songs with legendary producer Tony Visconti and later with Bernard "Focus..." Edwards, Jr. Subsequently, Klaxons did re-record the album with producer Ross Robinson. In 2010, Klaxons released the material as its sophomore effort Surfing the Void.
