Bonafide – Ultimate Rebel is now available on pre-sale on itunes

Its hard to believe that its nearly been three years since BONAFIDE´s last full length offering ”Something’s Dripping” was first released.

Of Charmer, her eighth studio album, Mann comments, “I’m fascinated by charming people and the whole idea of charm. It’s hard to remember sometimes that there is usually an agenda behind the act of being charming, and that is what I’m most interested in...

The British IBM released a brand new single and video this week to celebrate the founding of Intel, (18th July 1968)… Formed by retro enthusiast and singer-songwriter Adrian Killens, The British IBM combine nerdy delights – indie rock and vintage computing.

Even though some songs are loosely based on ”retro computing” themes, these aren’t the comedy or chip tune type band with in your face songs about micro chips and commodore 64s etc.. The songs are more about the human story of what goes on behind the screens.

Adrian says – ‘I’m a bit obsessed with retro computing. I saw a film called Micro Men, set in Cambridge in the late seventies and early eighties. It’s based on the rise and fall of the two Cambridge computer companies; Sinclair and Acorn...
