Never Enough Notes is the brainchild of Kimberley-Marie Sklinar. Kim’s favourite bands are We Have Band, The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand, Wild Beasts, Death Cab For Cutie, Interpol, Phoenix, The Police and Radiohead…and that’s a shortlist. She’s an alright writer and a terrible guitarist…and an even worse snowboarder. Kim is from Wakefield, West Yorkshire, but has settled in London over the past few years. Having written for numerous publications and websites including The Smoke, allgigs.co.uk, The 405 and The Beat Surrender, Never Enough Notes was created almost as a dare in 2009 yet grows every day. Kim’s best gig – Radiohead @ Blackpool’s Winter Gardens. Worst gig – Peter Green’s set at The Secret Garden Party festival (the festival itself blew her mind!). Kim is not very good at writing about herself in the third person. She greets animals in the street. Kim deals with the overall running of Never Enough Notes.

Worthy, fraught, edgy, ramshackle and scratchy post-grunge hymns set in an era when low-slung jeans didn’t sit below arse-cheeks, but instead had half the knees gashed out.
Clumsy beats, incessant ramblings and the odd decent hook can sometimes make or break a single-release within 30 seconds – ‘Made Of Magic’ starts promisingly enough but then tails off down the street like the sound of 3 indie-jangle bands playing Red Hot Chilli Peppers-riffs at once, like some maniacal carnival float.
The latest from Kitsune Maison is due for release at the end of the month. Kitsuné Maison 9 – “The Petit Bateau edition or The Cotton Issue” is released April 26th. We have a remix of Two Door Cinema Club’s track Something good Can Work (The Twelves Remix) for free download…..

A quintessentially-British shining star in 2010′s jungle of new-wave, electro-funk, anti-folk and whatever random genres you can make up. We reckon the Queen’d have him over for tea and cake.
