suggest me London bands (mixtape-centric)

a friend of mine is moving to London and I'm trying to make a her a mix cd of London bands. It's harder than I thought it would be. Trying to think of not so obvious ones. Any suggestions??

    "A" Bomb on Wardour Street, pretty obvious I suppose, but when I walk past it makes me smile
