Bunny come
Bunny Come began as a studio project in London mid 2009; the ADHD brainchild of my friends Nicole Bettencourt Coelho, Paul Ressel and Harmony Boucher. Joyously welding growling bass-lines and quirky gizmodgery to a bootful of hooky melodies, Bunny Come lived in the computer until drummer Matthew Christensen joined a few months later. We four misfits took it live, boasting a grunting rhythm section (and the occasional tiny shorts) to compliment our synth-washed set.

Moscow
Moscow, a band from punkrocktown Örebro in Sweden, was formed in 2005 with the mission to take hardcore-punk music to the next level. By mixing noisy hardcore, punk, groovy rock 'n' roll and catchy melodies the band quickly made a name in the local area. In late 2006 the band entered Studio Cave to record their first demo, which was recieved with great enthusiasm. The band's vision about their music is that there should be no limits or boundaries when it comes to mixing different styles of music.
