The Soundcarriers - Low Light
Off their fourth album ‘Entropicalia’, released in 2014.
The Soundcarriers were formed in Nottingham, UK, where founding members Adam Cann, Paul Isherwood (a.k.a. Pish) and Dorian Conway have played together since childhood. Leonore Wheatley completes the band’s line-up adding subtle, gentle vocals and harmonies. Filmic, fantastic and authentically psychedelic, a jazz-infused psych-pop with a 60s vibe.

Off their second album “We Are Beautiful”, released in 2013.
Beaulieu Porch is an English psychedelic pop band formed by multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter Simon Berry in 2010. “This is proper Strawberry Fields territory. Think floaty psychedelia, dreamy vocals, extended bizarre codas. And it is brilliant…” Inspired psych-pop with rock influences.

Faces On Film are from Boston, USA and debuted in 2008. Their third album “Elite Lines” marks a major leap forward for Mike Fiore as songwriter.

Tara King Th. - L’Enquete
Off their album “Hirondelle & Beretta”, released in 2013.
Tara King Th. hail from Rhône-Alpes, southeast France. Amazing psychedelic pop that conjure up spaghetti western, future-gone-retro or acid rock from the early 70's. Their 5th album “Hirondelle & Beretta” brings to mind Ennio Morricone and Broadcast. It is a soundtrack to an imaginary film. The music itself combines lyrical giallo style themes with gorgeous baroque pop, ornate psychedelia and even a bossa nova. It could be a moody noir thriller, but it probably makes an even better case for a horror soundtrack.

Off his debut album “In The Land Of The Elephant Blues”, released in 2015.

He creates songs by combining the sounds of mellotron, fuzzy guitars, electric organs and other classical instruments with psychedelic effects.

The Liminanas - My Black Sabbath
Off their third album “Costa Blanca”, released in 2013.
The Perpignan duo of Marie and Lio Limiñana found themselves augmented by three additional musicians to create a hypnotic maelstrom of sound that suggested an alternate universe. It exists somewhere between the Jesus & Mary Chain's influences, the Gallic pop and ye ye of Anna Karina and the sly sophistication of Serge Gainsbourg, marrying fuzzed-out psychedelia and agreeably rambling rock with a pop sweetness.

The Entrance Band - No Needs
Off their second album “Face The Sun”, released in 2013.
The Entrance Band is the second project of Los Angeles gifted Guy Blakeslee with Paz Lenchantin and Derek James. With their 2nd album “Face The Sun”, the psychedelic power trio emerges from a long tunnel of addiction, anxiety, sorrow and sadness to wilfully turn toward the light, moving from facing down mortality to facing the sun. “No Needs” is the album’s masterpiece with phenomenal instrumentation and even a flute driven climax!

The Buttertones - Nu Suave
Off their debut album “Buttertones”, released in 2013.
The Buttertones are Richard, Cobi, Sean, Dakota from Los Angeles, California. The sound of the bass kick squeaking in “Nu Suave” with that riff that blat-blat-blats into your ear while the snare rolls on and the singer laments “All fucking night”. This is the kind of band that will certainly get even better with time and we can’t wait.

Invasions - Rosy
Off their second self-titled album “Invasions”, released in 2013.
Invasions are a five-piece band from Toronto, Canada. They manage to combine stoner jams with garage-infused surf rock and gritty, horn-filled country western blues. Their sophomore album “Invasions” screams Tarantino soundtrack, it’s doused in reverb and is always jaunty and fun.

Off their debut album “Latituds Del Cavall”, released in 2014.
Condor Gruppe are from Antwerp, Belgium. Michiel Van Cleuvenbergen, Jan Wygers, Milan Warmoeskerken, Krist Torfs and Kris Delacourt gave us certainly one of the best albums of 2014, with their debut “Latituds Del Cavall”. It combines obscure Italian 70’s soundtracks and spaghetti westerns with surf-music, all dipped in psychedelia.

Blossoms - Blow
The band’s debut single, released in 2014.
Blossoms are one of Britain's next big things. Tom Ogden (Voice/Guitar), Charlie Salt (Bass/BV's), Josh Dewhurst (Lead Guitar/Auxiliary Percussion), Joe Donovan (Drums) and Myles Kellock (Keyboards/BV's) are from Stockport, Greater Manchester and they are astonishingly good. Their Psyche-pop riffs, the vocal melodies where a film noir meets the 60s aesthetic show authentic quality. There is a range of audible references here from the Arctic Monkeys via Abba to The Doors artfully constructed psych haze.

Their debut album “The Madcaps” really hit our soft spot with “Melody Maker” that has instantly become one of The BSMNT’s anthems because of its lyrics, apart from anything else.

Spearheaded by the very talented Nick Wheeldon, Os Noctàmbulos are garage rock revivalists with a sound steeped in ingredients from the top-shelf, managing to sidestep being another retro retread.

The Electric Magpie - Friends
Off their debut album “Begins”, released in 2014.
The Electric Magpie are Peter Maffei, Hunter Stroope, Ignacio Gonzalez, Culen Jensen, Tomas Dolas and Claire Morison from San Francisco, California. Their debut album “Begins” is a mix of Folk, Garage and Psych Rock and really stood out with its memorable infectious choruses and its warm, comfortable early seventies glow. The ease with which these guys traverse genres is commendable and results in an album that sounds like it exists outside of the confines of time. But the masterpiece here is "Friends", starting with a splendid New York coke-cool rhodes intro, before going all "I Am The Walrus" and getting moody and psychedelic.
