New Noise: 12th May '11

Tomorrow (or later today, even) I’m off to Minehead for the last ever Spring ATP Festival, this time curated by Animal Collective. In anticipation I’ve included a couple of the artists I’m hoping to see in this week’s New Noise, among them Ear Pwr and Zomby whose excellent ‘Natalia’s Song’ is finally coming out officially as a limited 10” on 4AD on Monday.

Alongside beguiling and brilliant new songs by the likes of Family, Michael Kiwanuka, Stealing Sheep and I Break Horses, there are also tasters from highly anticipated upcoming albums by Memory Tapes, Trouble Books & Mark McGuire and Austra.

And, probably most exciting of all, I get to play the utterly killer new remix of Junior Boys’ ‘Banana Ripple’, by The Field.
