Ahead of the curve... Adnan Kurtov

Hello all, been a while, but to create some posts I have decided to re-introduce this sub-section. Today it is the turn of Adnan Kurtov.

He is from the Republic Of Macedonia, Veles to be exact. He is a up and coming Power-pop / Art-pop artist, with his signiture track titled 'I Follow You' having got some notice in his homeland he sent a email to me to get his profile up a notch. With flowing lyrics, twisting bass coming in and out of the drum beats and a touch of the guitar he has managed to create a track that can be played in any nightclub.

Ahead of the curve... Death Metal Disco Scene

I have a real treat for you today, Death Metal Disco Scene, a London based band that already have some recognition for remixing such artists as Kylie Minogue, Lily Allen, The Verve, Bat For Lashes. David James Billing apparently started this as a one man project, it gave banging tracks from day one, as soon both Major and Independent labels have sniffed the smell of fresh and easily marketable talent.

He then though of making some of his own music, he found the special ingredient with a close friend, Scorch Shepherd.. Today they are ready with a set of songs to play at every gig, with a few bangers such as 21, Criminals and The Dead. BBC Radio One has already played 21. This is a sneaky little Indie-Rock song that reveals its powers the second the chorus kicks in, showing off its catchy and danceable energy.

Ahead of the curve... Ten Bears

The very first 'Ahead of the curve' feature, in the spotlight... Ten Bears they hail from the Manchester area (which I have been told is full of upcoming bands, and full of talent. So the London of the North!)



They been around for over a year now, maybe more but sadly I don't know much about their history, only about where they are destined! Their first single was released on East City Records (who also have Chapel Club on their roster too!), the song is for fans of MGMT and Phoenix, which can easily fit into Indie, Synth and Pop genres. I'll keep my radar, they're awesome.



They signed the deal to East City Records in March 2010 the label announced. With a few free tracks easily available to download and stream, such as 'Red Shoes' and 'Charlie' they are certainly going into the summer with festivals in mind then maybe... just maybe a album for the new year?







They have already been to SXSW in Austin Texas and they have seemed to accumulate some stateside fans!



Here are just a few comments from various websites.

"I'm playing the song for last 2 hours and not even bored. I'll keep my radar, they're awesome."
