Caesura

"Dear Light Outside' NOW OUT!!"

Caesura are a youthful gang of well-turned-out young boys who play epic post-rock that speaks of love, loss and life in the small towns in big landscapes of the earth It's spacious, heart-rending music that embraces you on a rainy street corner somewhere between Explosions In The Sky, Mogwai & At The Drive-In...

Chin Music

"no, really..."

Chin Music very sadly are no longer together, however you can still buy their album from us, which is highly recommended by our very own Joe Parker bellow:

The First Time I Heard This

by Joe

"I had known of neil, and of chin music, for some time but never put two and two together till one day i stopped into Planet Sounds and was amazed by the tight, muscular yet melodic noises bleeding through the door to the main live room When they stopped out stepped a very sweaty gang of Chins...

JayEtAl

"beautifully epic electronic post rock soundscapes"

Winchester live dance duo JayetAl's first studio album, 'Where No City Lights' was one of Hampshire's most eagerly awaited releases of 2007 Their passionate and euphoric live sets already being the stuff of local legend, Where No City Lights brought their sound to a new audience, able at last to discern from the home hi-fi the delicate, haunting back-melodies that counterpoint the blistering wall of noise Jay and Al conjure up between their drums and guitars live...

Joe Parker And The Power

"?Carnivale di Sotones!"

How the hell do you manage to sell out a free gig?
If it's your second ever?
In a top-secret squat-art gallery?

You might ask Joe Parker And The Power - but the truth is, they can't remember Not the sex and the drugs (that's missing the point; they were skint that night - like always - we had to balance a lone bottle of White Lightning to get fucked-up on against the gas money to get them home); but the rock'n'roll...

Moneytree

"dischordant jazz rock odyssey-new ep out now!"

Moneytree do not look or feel like your average navy cadets but it was boarding at a merchant navy training college, formed from half a jazz band and half a rock band, that Moneytree first came into being However, once brothers Ollie and Campbell Austin and Joshi Finesilver starting playing they couldn�t stop, sneaking away to dodge the stifling discipline, shiny shoes and marching-time beats...

Peter Lyons

"electrovolk"

Peter Lyons is one of those mischievous, slightly shy, mix-everything-up-and-it’s- great kind of multiinstrumentalist / songwriter / producer types who can pick up an etch-a-sketch (or a disposable camera, or a household appliance) and turn it into a symphony

As well as being prolific (Peter had already self-produced five albums before releasing on MC through ultra-indie Brighton label Tape Club Records in 2007) Pete’s also a songsmith of rare quality, with a vision all his own combining sunny optimism with a very sympathetic sense of human frailties and weaknesses and the born musician’s love of sonic tinkerings...

rude_NHS

"pioneer of dead rock, guffstep and shoe rave"

Locable, notable, rude_NHS is a pioneer of dead rock, guffstep and shoe rave We're not sure what any of those are, but they definitely combine a virtuoso's musical feel (rude_NHS is a dab hand with guitar - specialist in all styles) with an impish sense of amusement and dirty, dirty drum'n'bass sensibilities...
