Andy Golledge Shares Video For ‘Blue’ Lifted From Debut EP ‘Namoi’

‘Wondering’, is the woozy second single from Thea Gustafsson’s project, Becky and the Birds. Released today via 4AD / Remote Control and alongside visuals directed by Danica Arias Kleinknecht, ‘Wondering’ is a poetic lament charting a deeply sorrowful period for the Swedish pop producer and songwriter following the death of a beloved relative. Gustafsson explains, "I wrote this song after I lost my grandmother, which was the first time that I experienced the death of a loved one. My grandmother was my best friend and such a light in my life, so losing her was really, really difficult for me. I didn’t know how to deal with the complete emptiness and confusion that I felt. That’s when I wrote this song, I just felt like I had to find different ways of coping, and thinking about the good times and the beautiful memories instead of what could’ve been. That’s why I’m hoping that this song will reach anyone who’s experienced loss of a loved one. We’ve gotta come together and focus on the good and the beautiful marks that they’ve left in our lives and hearts, cause they will never be taken from us." Born in the mid-nineties, Thea Gustafsson was raised in Örebro, a small city in the middle of Sweden. Her musician father immersed her in music from infancy, playing jazz and soul records at home. Gustafsson’s musical education become more formalised when she picked up the violin at age 7, leading her to perform in orchestras and master classical arrangement and composition. A move to Stockholm in 2014 to attend Musikmakarna – a renowned music school in Sweden’s capital – exposed her to pop music for the very first time, coming face-to-face with music epitomised and made famous by the likes of Max Martin and Aviicii (she spent an eye-opening year as an intern with the latter during her second year of study). Armed with skills in pop songcraft and production, Becky and the Birds came to life in reaction to frustrating and fruitless encounters with producers and songwriters in what remains an overwhelmingly male-dominated music industry. As with previous single ‘Do U Miss Me’, Gustafsson wrote and produced ‘Wondering’ which is available today via all digital platforms. Becky and the Birds - 'Wondering' is out now via 4AD / Remote Control Records. www.beckyandthebirds.com www.4ad.com www.remotecontrolrecords.com.au

BEDROOM HYPE MACHINE LONELY GOD RELEASES ‘MARLBORO NIGHTS’

What is your name and role within Supernova? Emiliano is a Dj, producer and A&R, Giacomo is a Dj, Musician and producer. Where are you currently based and what is the music scene like there? We live in Florence, we have our studios and our families here in Italy. Music scene here is pretty hot, we love to play in Italy! How did you first start playing music? We both starts at 15 years old playing vinyls, drum machines and samplers at some hot parties in our cities at the end of 80s. What's been happening recently? We had a great end of 2019 / beginning of 2020 djing between Europe, Usa and Asia and releasing music on Defected, Downtown Underground and 8Bit. What influenced the sound and songwriting for your new EP? We love to mix House and Techno sometimes and we are always influenced by the old school scenes creating a new Supernova sound. That’s what we like mostly. How did you go about writing the music? Sometimes we start from a groove that we like, sometimes we work around an acappella or a sample and sometimes we have an idea in mind, like a direction or a mod we want to go. Where and when did you record/produce and who with? How did you approach the recording/production process? What programs/equipment did you use? We produced this in our recording studio in Florence. We brought here the vocalist Fay aka Medusa from London and we did a couple of days of recording vocal sessions. We recorded the vocals on some reference beats, not the track as it’s now. After a few days we did start working on this raw house beat with a techno feeling and we created the string pattern with an old school feeling. We were loving how the track was building up but we felt it was missing something. We went through the vocals recorded with Fay and felt that that the spoken one was perfect for the track. We re arranged the vocal over the track and at the end we were very happy. We produced on Ableton Live as daw, Kontakt to write the strings pattern and OB-6 for synths. What did you find most challenging and rewarding during the creation on the EP? Any upcoming gigs/tours? We wanted to create a raw beat with a techno attitude but keeping the house feeling and merge them with a classical string pattern. Unfortunately in this moment after the COVID-19 crisis all the gigs we had planned have been cancelled.. If so, where are you headed and when? What can we expect from your live show? We hope to reschedule soon gigs we had planned in London, Italy and South America for Aprile and May. Our live shows are always a surprise, we love to drive around the music and to see what the crowd need from us. It’s like a mix between a dj set and a live set. Who are you listening to at the moment? Funk, Jazz and Trap music. What do you like to do away from music? Reading, sports and to stay with our families. What's planned for 2020? We will be really focus on new Supernova music this year, we are preparing a lot of stuff for some hot labels we love and of course for Lapsus Music, Downtown Underground and Blackboard which are our labels. We are also planning to release a new album on 2020 or maybe 2021, will see. Favourite food and place to hangout? We love to have special dinner with our crew, it’s a perfect place to hangout before the party. We love our Tuscan traditional food and to try food from other countries when we travel.

Supernova Interview

Muzz is the new project of Paul Banks (singer of Interpol), Josh Kaufman (esteemed producer/multi-instrumentalist and one third of Bonny Light Horseman), and Matt Barrick (drummer of Jonathan Fire*Eater, The Walkmen, and Fleet Foxes’ touring band). Today, the trio release their first official single, the loungey and romantic ‘Broken Tambourine’, via Matador / Remote Control. Watch the accompanying visual below. ‘Broken Tambourine’ begins with sparse, floating piano by Kaufman, before surging with Banks’ rumbling vocals, Barrick’s low percussion, and a lilting clarinet, while an open door during recording brings in the surrounding nature sounds of the studio in Woodstock and augments the song’s spacious atmosphere. Written, arranged and performed by all three, it perfectly encompasses the collaborative essence of Muzz, a group with recordings dating back to 2015, but, cosmically speaking, with seeds planted long ago. So how did we get here? Why, casually, of course. Banks and Kaufman have been friends since their formative teen years, having attended high school together overseas before separately moving to New York City for further study. There, they independently crossed paths with Barrick while running in similar music circles. Some years on, they each remained in touch: Barrick drummed in Banks’ project with The RZA, Banks + Steelz, and on some of Kaufman’s production sessions; Kaufman helped on Banks’s early Julian Plenti solo endeavor; various demos were collaborated on; a studio in Philadelphia was co- bought; “what if”-s and “we should”-s were tossed about. When the opportunity to make music as a trio presented itself, the gentlemen pounced. While ‘Broken Tambourine’ is the band’s first official song for Matador, earlier this month Muzz dropped ‘Bad Feeling’ anonymously via Soundcloud. Stereogum recognized it as “a surprisingly loose and low-key indie track that piles on layers of beauty as it goes”. It chimes and slinks with a touch of panache as Barrick’s kick drum pushes the tune along and Kaufman’s Farfisa fills the space. Together, these two initial numbers from Muzz offer an early glimpse into the band’s dark and expansive sound, and genuine artistic chemistry.

Artists: R3HAB & GATTÜSO Title: Creep Label: CYB3RPVNK Release date: March 20, 2020 Listen on Spotify R3HAB and GATTÜSO team up on their new collaborative version of "Creep" - a cover of one of Radiohead's most iconic tracks - redone with a vocal big-room house vibe, marking the first-ever recording for Spotify's inaugural "mint Singles" program, a companion to its flagship dance playlist, mint, and a spin-off of the popular "Spotify Singles" series. Opening with angelic vocals over a barely-there bassline, we soon discover that this track packs a punch of attitude when the breakdown dives into a bouncy, groovy soundscape intermixed with upbeat melodies. "Creep" will feel at home on the radio and during live performances, which might make it your new go-to track for any occasion. R3HAB first worked with GATTÜSO on his track "Lullaby" and most recently tapped him for a remix of "Flames," slowly integrating the emerging DJ/producer into the CYB3RPVNK family. "Creep" is out today. Over the last eight years, the Dutch/Moroccan artist Fadil El Ghoul - better known as R3HAB - has established himself as a leader at the forefront of modern electronic music. His talent has been called the "future of the craft" by the likes of Forbes and Billboard, and he's circuited the globe's best clubs and festivals, all without the backing of a formal record label. In 2017, R3HAB independently released his debut album "Trouble" through his imprint CYB3RPVNK, which amassed over a half-billion streams globally and officially placed R3HAB among electronic music's heavy hitters. He made number 14 on DJ Mag's Top 100 list in 2019, topping the charts with tracks like "Lullaby" and "Hold On Tight," while his sophomore album "The Wave," revealing more complex, emotional and experimental layers of himself, has amassed over 250 million streams on Spotify alone. In 2019 R3HAB's "All Around The World" with A Touch of Class quickly became his biggest ever record already topping 200M streams across platforms and achieving gold & platinum status in 8 countries. It was followed by "Flames," R3HAB's collaboration with ZAYN. Since his first release, "Who We Are" in summer 2018, GATTÜSO has rapidly made a name for himself in the dance music scene. He has twice charted top 10 on Billboard Dance Radio, his songs have been streamed over 70 million times on Spotify and Apple Music, and his music has been endorsed by top artists such as Tiesto, R3HAB, Galantis, Sam Feldt, Steve Aoki, and many more. GATTÜSO has released music with leading international dance labels Enhanced Music and Armada Music, R3HAB's label CYB3RPVNK, as well as through his own label, T&T Records. GATTÜSO launched into 2020 will a ton of momentum which includes his recently released remix of R3HAB, ZAYN and Jungleboi's "Flames," his single "Walk On Water featuring Kat Nestel" (the first release from a new label deal with Ultra Music) and a new live representation agreement with William Morris.
