The Argonauts - Scatter

The Argonauts are a three piece indie rock band who have been playing music for the past two years. They started out as an instrumental band playing folk music and then progressing through blues, ska and reggae. Finally they decided to introduce vocals, write their own songs and go into a studio to record a three track demo. Their track 'Ellafrell' was played on the BBC Suffolk Introducing show and ever since they've been writing and recording more material and playing gigs in and around Colchester.

Filthy Temples - Green-leafed volatile

The track 'Green Leafed Volatile' was inspired by the ever-changing colours and moods of a tree's annual leaf cycle. Within the track Oliver Squirrel tried to captivate this by layering various guitar riffs and loops all with different sonic variations, tones and depths. All filthy temples tracks are made using live audio guitar recordings and programmable drum loops, it's as simple as that!
