His blend of disco-beats, analogue synths and reflections on queer culture has seen Rhumba Club build a dedicated cohort of fans known as 'The Clubbers', exceeding 10,000 followers on Instagram, Facebook, Youtube & Spotify where he has amassed over 950,000 streams. His 2021 debut album Welcome To The Rhumba Club, saw Tom tipped as a ‘one to watch’ by GQ and BBC Introducing, whilst picking up support from Attitude, The Line of Best Fit, The Fader, 1883 Magazine and Clash. The record led to syncs with Hermès, Fendi, & Adidas, & he toured the UK supporting Molchat Doma. Following a pandemic-induced halt, he has just released his sophomore album, Love Apokalypto. This second record was executive produced by 2023 Grammy-nominee Mikko Gordon. The first single, Video Game, hit the top spot on Hype Machine, whilst Perfect Queen has seen plaudits from Attitude, Wonderland, Clash & BBC Radio 6. Last Autumn, Rhumba Club toured Europe, playing a number of headlines and supports, alongside the likes of Mykki Blanco, Idles, Will Butler & Miel de Montagne. His live show is 1 part queer disco & 1 part Future Islands-esque 'controlled mania'. He is now back in the studio, making an alternative disco record, once again co-produced by Mikko Gordon. For fans of: Future Islands, Perfume Genius, Talking Heads, Donny Benét, Chromeo. LUNAR JUNE - With prolific collaborations under her belt such as Kölsch and Franky Wah, alongside performances at All Points East, the Great Escape, and Isle of Wight Festival to name a few, writer-producer Lunar June is quickly growing a name for herself. 2023 saw the release of Lunar’s debut EP, which includes the sparkling, scintillating single ‘holding onto u’, which has been supported right across the board, from Radio 6 to NME, as well as BBC Introducing’s Melita Dennett and Radio 1’s Gemma Bradley. The release of her brand new EP, an ode to the girl i once was, has shown a leap in the artist’s songwriting and production, and has been described as “beautifully vulnerable” (F Word Magazine) and “euphoric yet deeply personal electro-pop” (Wonderland). CHINA ASTER - “Stuffed with pop hooks, ’80s synths, cut glass vocals and lyrical wit” - Louder Than War

“Listeners will feel as if they have been transported to an other-worldly discotheque” - When the Horn Blows Described by BBC Introducing as ‘very fresh and new’, China Aster is the solo project of Guernsey-born, London-based Josh Moore. Taking its botanical name from a debt-ridden character in Herman Melville’s ‘The Confidence Man’, the project kicked off in 2022 with debut single ‘If I Could Dance’. Moore moved to London to study Fine Art at Goldsmiths where he drew on inspiration from the utopian writings of Karl Marx, Ernst Bloch and Nikolai Fyodorov. Recent singles have tackled topics ranging from rationality, memory to toxic positivity. Self-described as “a campaign for lucid daydreaming”, China Aster’s music explores hope and optimism through notions of political action and science fiction, via the contemporary art-pop of John Maus, MGMT and Grimes, and via classic 80s artists The Style Council, Cocteau Twins, and Talking Heads. Having worked with Oliver Marson and mixing engineer Joshua Rumble (Black Country, New Road), China Aster has been supported by Louder Than War (‘single of the month’), When the Horn Blows, The Most Radicalist, Babystep Magazine, Acute Pop, Wax Music, Post-Punk, RGM, BBC Introducing (‘track of the week’), Amazing Radio and Fresh on the Net.
