PICTURE OF THE WEEK THE TASTEMAKERS Today’s opinion formers predict tomorrow’s headline acts SYNC STORY TOBY ROGERS ARTROCKER/NME/LOUDER THAN WAR The tale behind a standout sync deal in the industry this week… Shields • Kaleidoscope EP (Riverman Records) This North East five-piece have friends in high places. Kylie's a fan; and she should be. The lead track from the band's new EP shines with the same -ball glimmer as the Aussie legend's global smash Can't Get You Out Of My Head. Recorded in their native Newcastle, it's a bold blast of tropicala-infused electro-pop. JEREMY ALLEN STOOL PIGEON/NME Melody’s Echo Chamber • Melody’s Echo Chamber (Domino) Melody Prochet’s debut is a labyrinthian, lysergic rush from start to finish, achingly cool and seductively psychotropic. Enlisting Tame Impala’s on produc- tion duties, the pair set about ‘ruining’ Melody’s melodies, and the resultant mêlée magnifique melds French pop to experimentalism; from Jane Birkin to Broadcast.

’ve got to wonder if the neighbours have complained: the sheer amount of chuckling emanating from Cooking Vinyl’s swanky new west London office mustn’t half get on their nerves. Perhaps the whisper’s already out. “That’ll be the last laugh,” Acton’s local residents will knowingly natter to each other, raising their eyebrows skyward. “They have a lot of last laughs in there.” Ever since Cooking Vinyl and sister company Essential took on distribution duties for ’s in 2009, the 26-year- old indie label’s ability to resuscitate artist careers has evolved into all-out resurrection. Were you once a giant band? Did your momentum get lost at your previous label home? Then you might want to call Martin Goldschmidt, Cooking Vinyl MD, and fully qualified ‘Fixer’ of indie artist careers. Offering what it says is a deliberately striking alternative to bigger labels deals, CV promises artists a modest, fiscally viable sales target, alongside a committed campaign that won’t fizzle out when the next big release emerges: just the ticket for once-huge acts now languishing in the commercial doldrums. Take . The gender-bending goth rocker’s previously almighty popularity looked in freefall around the release of his last LP, 2009’s The High End Of Low. Yet this year’s Cooking Vinyl-issued effort has shifted more than 100,000 copies in the US, where it went Top 10 on the mainstream Billboard chart. It’s a similar story for other artists who CV has picked up in 2012 – from The View to , to , The Enemy to Reverend & The Makers and Madness; all acts whose creative and commercial prosperity has been given a shot in the arm by CV’s hands-off, year- round approach to album campaigns. It’s no mystery why Amanda Palmer – previously thought to be crudely anti-label following her raising of $1.2m via Kickstarter – handpicked Cooking to distribute her 2012 album . “My team looked at tonnes of options and the folks at Cooking Vinyl seemed like the best allies,” says Palmer – who’d been wriggling to weaken her British indie Cooking Vinyl has much to celebrate from an ‘amazing’ 2012 – not least record US success and a new ‘The best allies’: understanding of how Amanda Palmer’s view on the folks to best exploit YouTube at Cooking Vinyl BigInterviewV3_News and Playlists 20/11/2012 13:10 Page 12

RADIO 1’S DECISION TO BANISH ROBBIE WILLIAMS from its playlist immediately provoked comparisons with Status Quo suffering a similar fate back in the mid-Nineties. However, what seems clear is this latest move to overlook a big act seems harder to justify. In Q3 Williams received a pathetic two plays from Radio 1 for his single Candy, while Radio 2 played it 36 times and it won heavy support from other stations around the country. As we all remember, back in 1996 when Matthew Bannister was rapidly reinventing what was then still the nation’s favourite station, deciding not to play the Quo was a trump card in showing the world just how much the network was changing and it was aiming younger. The move not to playlist Williams comes with a similar motive and, in controller Ben Cooper’s view, is musically a way for the network to meet a BBC Trust edict that it must bring down its average age. It is a clever trick and, just as when 16 years ago Quo decided to sue Radio 1 and its then head of production Trevor Dann for daring not to play them, has generated the required amount of publicity. But in terms of the two acts’ relevance, Quo were back then in a very different place to where Williams is now. The three-chord wonders were “In terms of the shown the door at Radio 1, lest we forget, for a totally uninspired cover of two acts’ relevance, Fun, Fun, Fun with Quo in 1996 were and even then they were three in a very different decades into their careers and were place to where no longer expecting their singles Williams is now” automatically to register high in the Top 10.
