Black Wings pick over
the carrion of human existence and present their set with
a caution that it might not always be pleasant listening.
The song subjects of lost love, heartbreak and death in
the bands material suggests a gloomy, introspective vibe.
Nothing could be further from the truth. Black
Wings are all about freedom and happiness and the
prospect of a better life after getting through the shit
you have to go through to get to where you're going on the
other side.

PT104: Surf
Friends - Confusion (CD Album) 2010
It seems like this album has been coming for a long time.
In the past year these guys have come a long way. Their sound
has evoled from their bluesy beginnings to the electro pop
of today. You could say that it was a happy accident, one
that has turned them into a powerhouse two-piece with a massive
sound and a energetic live act. Four singles have been released
from this excellent debut and have received significant airplay
on radio throughout New Zealand. From their early Clean inspired
songs, they have now forged a sound all of their own.

PT101: Bilders
- Parisian Friday
(CD Album) 2010
Non-studio Recordings by the Bilders
Paris Collaboration. Parisian
Friday is a selection of live and accidental recordings
of Bill Direen and Nik
le killer (Nikola Kapetanovic) performed in Paris
in 2009 -2010. These songs formed the basis of their performance
set in Europe.Happy accident is a theme in this album. Most
of the recordings were chance events, capturing performances
and songs that would not otherwise have been preserved.There
is quite a literary tinge to the song list: a musical setting
of a Lewis Carroll poem, a setting of a poem by Anglo-American
poet W.H.Auden (released with permission of the Auden
estate), and many translations of French songs into English
or of Bill Direen’s own
songs into French!

Surf Friends - Your On My
Mind (CD/EP) 2010
The second single taken from their upcoming debut album is
their catchiest yet! The two b-sides 'Feeling Of My Heart'
and 'Go' will not be on the album.A very good reason
to grab a copy now and start dancing early. Make 'Your
On My Mind' the soundtrack to your next love affair.
