Dear InSoundFromWayOutians,

Just so y’all know – I’ve regularly been sifting through the A&R Drop Box gold (and sometimes not so gold) submissions. I thought I’d bring some standouts to your attention.

Firstly, let me introduce you to Adelaide Power Pop / Rock band Move To Strike.

They’re not really creating anything new in the music world, but they know what they are doing and represent the genre well. And it really shows that they’re having fun with it all too.

Check this video for my personal favourite song on their myspace ‘This Year’.

Obviously all you need is Photobooth, a loud stereo, beer & a ceiling fan to make a clip these days.

Another promising outfit handed on a platter in our A&R Drop Box is Streetlight.

Fusing together a blend of UK heavyweights like The Music & Kasabian, with a hint of U2 and INXS to boot – these boys are really developing into something worth listening out for.

I recommend the track ‘Sapphires’ on their myspace & grab yourself an mp3 at Triple J Unearthed if you dig.

Keep the submissions coming along – i’m all ears!
