ULTIMATE POWER DUO: New Normal
"Saskatoon's rock maestros serve notice that their notoriously big sound is bigger than ever...a darker vibe than previous outings, digging into disturbing modern realities like poisoned cereal, religious confusion, border crossing paranoia and school shootings. These crushing new aural and lyrical dimensions are in evidence on each track, from the driving hooks and chronological displacement of "Jack The Space/Time Continuum Ripper" to the danceably-smart machine-gun delivery of "Noam Disco".
Produced by: David j Taylor. Recorded at: PM Studios (Saskatoon). More info: www.ultimatepowerduo.com

YOUNG JAMES: self-titled
This ten-song collection has received acclaim from local arts press and radio. "Their first full-length recording blurs the line between pop hooks and country-influenced folk/rock of the 1970s. The band blends soaring harmonies with distinct prairie sounds and imagery." "The band took a true homegrown approach to the making of the album by producing, recording and mastering everything themselves."
Produced by: T.C Young and Davy James. Recorded at: The Home Quarters Studio (Saskatoon). More info: www.myspace.com/youngjamesmusic
