What's New? KITES - EP - KIT0003

Have you heard of Kites? Hailing from London Kites are being called the next best thing to come out of the U.K. Kites sound is very reminiscent of 80's pop and are getting compared to such bands as New Order and O.M.D. Take a listen to their latest E.P. below and you'll hear why they've been chosen to open up for such vets as Peter Hook and Erasure.

Retro Video : The Wake - " Talk About The Past "



" Talk About The Past " by The Wake. About a year or so ago I got a hold of Factory Records box set Communications 78-92. Loaded the box set on my ipod and hit play. The box set had alot of classics and some other obscure gems. While listening I came across this track that sounded much like New Order but with a slight difference. I thought nothing of it and just assumed it was a side project featuring a New Order member similar to Electronic. It was'nt until recent that I came across the music video(promo) and I was informed that The Wake were infact an original band and had no New Order members in their line-up. " Talk About The Past " may have been The Wake's greatest hit to date but their discography includes some other great post punk numbers.
