Bryyn: FTTme

Swiss music is always good to have since only a few are around to choose from. Hailing from Lausanne, Switzerland, the French-speaking part of the country, Bryyn is the living proof that army knives and hot chocolate beverages are not the only things that the Swiss should be proud of. Most of his songs are written and recorded at his apartment together with his wife, Rachel and a couple of his friends playing the instruments.

Marian Mereba: Room For Living EP

Simple and stripped down, Room For Living EP is a refreshing record. Thanks to its honesty and rawness, Marian Mereba manages to communicate what's most important when it comes to her sound: her voice and music. Newcomer Marian Mereba is an Atlanta-based singer that has taken the underground Atlanta scene by storm. Ask around several of the local artists and they've probably worked with her or know about her. Marian is an independent artist who relies on word of mouth to spread the word about her sound. Room For Living EP is her debut EP and comes with 10 tracks all released in February 2013.

The Laureates: Spells

The Laureates began cultivating their sound as far back as 2005. Vocalist Chad Preston initially compiled a set of tracks for his lo-fi album but knew that it's more fun to have other people join him. By the time they released their self-titled EP, the now quartet have found a good sound. So far, they've released several singles and mini compilations while continuing to dazzle in their indie rock garage sound.

Uncle Ugs: Let Me Be Your Battering Ram EP

Coming from a small village just outside of London, there is less to be known about Uncle Ugs aside from the very fact the he creates acoustic pop music that settles in perfectly for bedside listening. Let Me Be Your Battering Ram is a five track compilation debut that infuses the listener to a world-weary resignation coupled by the abstractness of love and rainy day hope.

The Cosmos Kids: Volume One

The threepiece is made up of Mike Kmiec on guitar/vocals/bass; Matt Eisle on vocals; and Tim Fassnacht on drums. The Kinks, The Walkmen, Bob Dylan and John Lennon count as among their diverse influences.
