26 THE LIST 21 Sep—5 Oct 2006
IN WITH THE NEW
The Arches and The List got together to ask some of our friends in the music business to recommend their favourite emergent bands. They went to the gigs, they heard the music, and some of them waxed quite poetic. They know their stuff. Listen to them.
Dot to Dot
Dot to Dot sound like like the bastard sons of Orange .Juice and Lloyd Cole and their arm seems to be to get you dancrng. They like their tangle. and they sometimes shamble. but their shows are always werth catching. and wrth their debut Single, ‘Dusty Cover'. due out later in the year, they're definitely a band to watch. tGavrn Dunbar is a member of Camera Obscura).

Everything from this Bra/ilian sixsome's magnificently monikered lead singer Loveloxxx to their sultry super cool image and infectious electro pep complete with clever cultural references screams stardom. However. it's (388' notorious live performances that wrll wrn over the hearts of the muSic-Iovuig masses as they flock stages. combining a punky delivery of tracks from their superb self-titled debut With hysterical fan interaction. stage-drvrng. some incredibly nifty moves and even the odd bit of flying underwear. Among a plethora of tight trouser-donning boys touting scratchy art rock and 90s dance samples as if it were something new. this incredibly fun and feisty new act should be relished as one of modem muSic's genuine innovatOrs. (Camilla Pia is a contributor to The Listl.

Joe Acheson Quartet
It came from his girlfriend who waited on tables. handed to a guy who sweated in a kitchen. through a mutual friend who (often walked up Victoria Street and) knew a tune when he heard one. One day I needed to find a support act fOr Jaga JaZZist and the demo landed in my lap. If the Lord moves in mystenous ways. good artists must move Querly to keep up. Joe stands confidently on stage as his silent quartet of headphone
