LATEST NEWS:

Love Connection’s debut album Love Connection is out now. The album was recorded by Michael, Kobi and Dean, and mixed by Nick Huggins. The album features incredible artwork by Cailan Burns (www.myspace.com/toomuchtodream).

Bruce Peninsula’s amazing debut album A Mountain Is A Mouth has also just been released. Bruce Peninsula make the kind of music that belies a few simple phrases from the likes of us. The facts are that they are a core of 5 but swell to as many as 13 live, they are incredible, their debut album takes from indie rock, pop, folk, soul, gospel, and Southern blues, and they are incredible. Weigh up which part you like best: their amazing harmonies, catchy rustic pop hooks, Neil Haverty’s Tom Wait-esque rumblings. Now we just need to get them to Australia!
“..one of the most incredible albums – debut or otherwise – I’ve heard in a very long time. iheartmusic.net

Sensory Projects are very very excited to announce the arrival of Rat Vs Possum to the label stable. Rat Vs Possum have been swinging through Melbourne inciting dancing, punter pondering, and spilling euphoric rhythms for the past 18 months. Along the way they played a historic (& packed) Wednesday night residency at The Tote, supported Midnight Juggernauts, played Spring Tones, and are soon to undertake an East Coast tour with Washington. Quite impossible to define, Rat Vs Possum take pop into psychedelic, tribal, and deftly melodic places. The debut release from Rat Vs Possum will be released through Sensory Projects and distributed by Inertia in April 2010. http://www.myspace.com/ratvspossum

The Ancients’ amazing second album is due for release early in 2010 via Sensory Projects, and follows on from their self-titled 2009 Moteer label release.
