Publicist er det elesktroniske sideprojekt fra Sebastian Thomson kendt fra det veleknte indie band TRANS AM! i samarbejde med Ian Svenonius fra NATION OF ULYSSES og THE MAKE UP brillierer han med sit en-mands solo-præstation! Med sine egen ord er det en omgang "..shimmering sexghost of disco and pummels it into a sleek panther that leaps from shadow to shadow briefly glimpsed in the reflection of disco lights!" Sådan!
Placer herligheden på samme hylde som Kraftwerk, Chic og Fancadelic!

Tussle er ligeledes fra det amerikanske og spiller dansebelt indierock med et elektronisk touch i den dansevenlige stil i det perfekte match med Publicist!. De herrer har delt scene med andre gode sager som Deerho og Yeah Yeah Yeahs!
Pitchfork har vurderet dem som et af de fem mest spændende bands, som det vil være værd at kigge efter i fremtiden!.. Musik med lige dele eksperimenterende leg og forførende dansable rytmer!

Sprung from SF’s active underground Mission district scene, Tussle has been causing a stir for some time with their unique combination of dance rhythms, elastic basslines, metallic textures, and processed electronic experimentation. Tussle have picked up support from Trevor Jackson (Output/Playgroup), John Peel, Scott "Prefuse 73" Herren. The ever hard-to-impress scribes at Pitchfork hailed the group one of the top 5 artists to look out for in the coming year(s). See detailed press under. Tussle has toured Europe, Japan and the East Coast of the United States. In Europe, they supported friends and labelmates Erase Errata, as well playing alongside Andrew Weatherall, Zongamin and Sunburned Hand of The Man. In the UK, they played Hot Shit! (formerly Sonic Mook Experiment), the Frieze Art Fair Afterhours and Trash. Their brief tour in Japan found them supporting Eye of Boredoms. In shows in SF and NYC, they've shared stages with a diverse international cast that mirrors the group's uniquely genre-free approach including Mu, Deerhof, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Ariel Pink, Add N To (X) to name a few. An album of remixes of Kling Klang material is also in the works, including contributions from Munk, Soft Pink Truth, Gang Gang Dance and many others to be confirmed.
Publicist is the electronic solo project Sebastian Thomson of TRANS AM, WEIRD WAR, ex-DEAD KIDS. With a new release on Touching Music in collaboration with IAN SVENONIUS (NATION OF ULYSSES, THE MAKE UP, CHAIN & THE GANG...), he's available for solo shows this autumn. Press says that "this new incarnation takes the shimmering sexghost of disco and pummels it into a sleek panther that leaps from shadow to shadow briefly glimpsed in the reflection of disco lights on the effervescent surface of a flute of champagne."
