Today, one of Canada’s top up-and-coming artists, Brandon Howard Roy, will be premiering his new single “The Fear.”  The track is from his highly anticipated new EP which is set to drop later in the year. Produced by Colin Buchanan (Paper Lions / Sorrey / KINLEY) at The Hill Sound Studio in Roy's hometown of Charlottetown PEI, "The Fear" is an indie pop gem that explores anxiety in all its forms.  "Anyone working on their mental health knows it’s never a linear path, and some days my fears feel like these ghosts that control every part of me," says Roy, "I wrote this song as a reminder that it’s ok to be scared sometimes, that growing up is hard, and that mistakes are gonna be made along the way." Originally from Montreal, Roy has always been involved in the arts, and his passion for the creative process has driven him to poetry, theatre, and (of course) music. After relocating to PEI in 2018, Roy found himself even more focused on music - and it was in 2019 that he fully dived in and had his first show,  and released his stunning first single “Little Reasons.” With word starting to spread, and with critics (and fans alike) being taken in my his pop charms - this is an artist (and a song) that you won’t want to miss.

A seminal figure in Vancouver’s influential music scene, Hamm has played in a number of storied West Coast acts, including Nardwuar and the Evaporators, Canned Hamm, Slow and Tankhog. His latest solo project focuses on the theremin, an esoteric instrument that is played without touch. Following the success of his well-received 2019 album, “Theremin Man,” this 7” delves even further into the creative with an adventurous odyssey into psychedelic electronic worlds.

Melbourne Goth/Electro - Queens of Club Release 'Bones'
Music News

Queens of Club Release ‘Bones’

by the partae January 21, 2021
written by the partae

Something sinister is lurking in the undergrowth. A ghostly visitant, creeping, crawling or floating at the edge of your vision. A feeling wells up inside you that quickly pulsates between terror & exhilaration. Your skin bristles, your bones freeze.

The Queens of Club is a nightmarish composite of three enchantresses of electronica from Melbourne: Akaysha Rose (Ok Sure), Sal White (Osopho) & Hannah Millar (Hai Priestess). This project embodies the mood, mayhem & melodrama of gothic electronica and pagan sacrifice. Sonically there are notions of french techno, scandenavian electro, synth wave and the 80s goth superstars that taught us the dark side of pop. The new single “Bones” is a brilliant instance with twisting, breathing beats and ominous romantic vocals, riding a spine of arpeggiated bass. A sincere and brutal track about attraction, power and obsession “Bones” wants to turn you inside out.

BAD RELIGION SHARE “EMANCIPATION OF THE MIND”

by the partae January 21, 2021
written by the partae

Preeminent Los Angeles band Bad Religion have just released “Emancipation Of The Mind,” an outtake from the band’s critically acclaimed 2019 album Age Of Unreason. The tracks upbeat messaging calls for reason and open mindedness as a new administration is welcomed into the White House today. Bad Religion have always advocated for humanism, reason, and individualism, which has never been more essential.

“I think the song really is a celebration of enlightenment values that can be cultivated through enthusiastic learning and open-mindedness,” says co-songwriter and vocalist Greg Graffin. “So often we’re told what to think. But learning how to think (as opposed to learning what to think) is a true feeling of emancipation from the constraints of indoctrination that are so commonplace in our society.”

BRISBANE’S LÂLKA SHARES NEW SINGLE ‘ATOMIC BLONDE’

by the partae January 21, 2021
written by the partae

LOVE FOR LÂLKA

“Hyperpop perfection”
NME

“For fans of Why!, M.I.A. and the Internet (not the band)”
The Guardian

“Has time and time again proven her place in the upper echelon of
Australia’s underground pop scene”

Pilerats

“PC pop leader of the future”
Tone Deaf

LÂLKA, Meanjin/Brisbane multi-hyphenate producer, today shares the first of new music for 2021, ‘Atomic Blonde‘. Listen and watch the visualiser HERE.

Driven by the phrase “I like the way music looks / I like the way fashion sounds,” synths bounce along a bubbly house beat before twisting into a rumbling, pitched up bassline. Produced collaboratively with Sydney electronic producer BRUX, ‘Atomic Blonde‘ illustrates LÂLKA‘s commitment to evolving her sound and creative energy, influenced by her trailblazing inspirations. From a chance decision to colour her hair, LÂLKA presents reinvigoration through song form on ‘Atomic Blonde’, and more broadly, striving to reclaim her identity as a woman of colour. 

Of the release LÂLKA shares “I appropriated this phrase from Malcolm McLaren (manager of the Sex Pistols, collaborator & ex-partner of Vivienne Westwood). It succinctly describes the reasons why I’m obsessed with both music and fashion. Pulling together phrases associated with my two biggest interests, this track is probably the most fun I have ever had lyrically.”

LÂLKA’s brazen take on pop experimentalism has been called many things: “the future” by Tone Deaf, “attitude-filled organised chaos” by Stoney Road, “too cool for this world” by Fashion Journal and many more. Since first emerging with her debut ‘Dare You To Love Me‘, LÂLKA has steadily worked and built her portfolio to include supporting Charli XCX, Alice Ivy, Genesis Owusu, Miss Blanks and more alongside appearances at BIGSOUND, Laneway and FOMO festivals in recent years.

Her contortion of glitchy hyperpop through the lens of her own experiences is palatial and ferocious with plenty of tongue-in-cheek energy. Her dynamism comes to life through dance, real-time sample triggering and live instrumentation as a classically trained musician. Stay tuned as LÂLKA promises more in 2021.

‘Atomic Blonde‘ is out now, buy/stream it here.

DEB NEVER SHARES NEW SINGLE 'SOMEONE ELSE' + OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO

DEB NEVER SHARES NEW SINGLE ‘SOMEONE ELSE’ + OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO

by the partae January 21, 2021
written by the partae

Today, vocalist and guitarist Deb Never enters 2021 with her new single ‘Someone Else‘. Produced by Jam City (Kelela, Bad Gyal, Troye Sivan) and Michael Percy (Snoh Aalegra, Joy Crookes), the song struts Deb’s love drunk insecurities over a distinctly bare backdrop, sounding as sappy as it does self-aware. The more she shares the more the track blossoms, eventually unraveling into a drum & bass crescendo placed delicately beneath Deb’s inviting vocals.

Following months of LA isolation and releasing her Bandcamp-only quarantine project Intermission, Deb fell into what can only be attributed to a creative dry spell. In hopes of sparking new inspiration, Deb packed her bags and booked a one way flight to London, where she moved in with longtime collaborator and UK-based artist Michael Percy. With no real intention or plan, it was there that Deb would spend the next five months working and writing an onslaught of new music, with an insular group of London-based collaborators.

The video, filmed by Elif Gönen in the Hampstead Heath neighborhood, is the melodramatic ‘90s indie film Deb always wanted to star in, featuring a buoyantly endearing love interest that takes the viewer on a day in the life of lovestruck London romance. In the end, ‘Someone Else’ arrives as a sight into the artistic and personal growth Deb has undergone over the last year, and is a subtle smoke signal of what’s to come from the rising artist.

Deb Never began recording dream-like melodies and developing her ominous grunge sound by drawing inspiration from various ‘90s artists while growing up in the Pacific Northwest. After trial and error with different bands, Deb decided to forge her own path and relocated to Los Angeles. Once there, she began working on her debut project which was then taken on by WEDIDIT. She released the House on Wheels EP via the label in August 2019, just one of many achievements made that year alone.

Outlets started to take notice, with Pigeons & Planes awarding her ‘Best New Artists of the Month’ for April 2019. As her popularity climbed, she opened for Tommy Genesis, who also appears on Deb’s ‘Same’ Remix, and later Dominic Fike. The FADER later named her as one of their 4 ‘Gen F’ artists for Winter 2019/2020 and V Magazine named her as a ‘Generation V’ artist for 2019. In 2020, she teamed up with Kenny Beats for ‘Stone Cold’ and then at the peak of quarantine she recorded and released her BandCamp-only Intermission EP, which she premiered live via i-D’s Instagram. Deb was also named to Dazed Magazine’s notable Dazed 100 list in 2020 alongside some of the world’s most up-and-coming contemporary creatives. ‘Someone Else’ is the first of more introspective work to come from Deb Never in 2021, introducing a more evolved sound from the artist.

Praise for Deb Never

‘Deb Never’s earnest introspection sets her apart; her songs are full of feeling and emotion, but they’re never splayed out recklessly.’
– Pitchfork

‘…her disarming energy comes clad in a simple black hoodie, dirty Converse, and infectious laugh, it only makes her complex lyrics and raw voice that much more bewitching.’
– i-D

‘…a remarkably assured effort; confident in its (somber) tone…’ 
– Rolling Stone

‘it’s a harmonious union that doubles as an affirmation of her commitment to both boundary-free creation and emotional purgatory.’
– The New Yorker

Nicky Night Time and Ali Love have collaborated for a hypnotising new single ‘Ubiquity feat. Breakbot’. Filled with classic disco flair, funk riffs, and infectious vocals the track instantly encapsulates a dreamy dance-floor moment.  With each artist living in a different country, ‘Ubiquity’ has already made its way around the globe, Ali Love explains how the track came together, “‘Ubiquity’ started its life in Australia with Nicky Night Time as a drum and guitar track. Then made its way to London where I added electric bass and vocals very early in the morning. I recall there were about 8 Japanese girls in my flat for some reason, so you could say that really added to the song’s vibe. You can feel there’s a party happening. The tune then travelled to LA where, by chance, Nicky drafted in Breakbot, who wrote the amazing string and horn parts, and sent the song into the stratosphere. The stars have aligned and the vibe is ubiquitous." Nicky Night Timeadds “It was a love project really and I think we felt it was a cool thing just to put out into the world between the 3 of us amigos.” Widely respected Australian producer Nicky Night Time first arrived on the scene during the height of the electro-pop wave, touring alongside the likes of Phoenix, Daft Punk, Bloc Party and more. Traversing between various genres, Nicky Night Time has added his touch to Elderbrook’s ‘Capricorn’ and ‘Numb’, as well as working with the likes of Nick Littlemore (PNAU), Touch Sensitive, Cut Snake and more!  Recently spending time touring and producing alongside Nat Dunn for their project - NAATIONS. Together the duo featured and co-wrote ‘Nowhere To Go’ with Hayden James as well as ‘Real Life’ with Duke Dumont and Gorgon City which has amassed over 65 million streams!  UK singer, songwriter Ali Love first broke out with his synth-pop album ‘Love Harder’, showcasing Ali Love’s powerful and tasteful vocals. His versatile voice has scored him countless collaborations, appearing on record’s with Camelphat, The Chemical Brothers, Roisin Murphy, Justice, and Lee Foss! Finishing off ‘Ubiquity’ is French touch favourite, Breakbot,  signed to the much-loved electronic label, Ed Banger Records, is recognised for smash hit record ‘Baby I’m Yours’, scoring a mammoth 208 million streams. Since then, the producer has remixed tracks for the likes of Lizzo, and Parcels.  ‘Ubiquity’ is out now via Sweat It Out and Music To Dance To.

BLUESFEST CHAIRMAN PETER NOBLE’S STATEMENT

by the partae January 20, 2021
written by the partae

PETER’S STATEMENT 

To my friends in the music industry …. their families and those who love music.

As we are soon going into our second year, of little, or no gigs as a result of Covid ….

let us not forget what we need to do.

Let’s support each other… continue to check in and ask how we are doing.. be positive that a day is coming when we WILL get back to performing live, safely…. and do what we can to be a part of that wonderful day.

We need to remain positive, uphold our industry, where you see negativity in any area, including media…gently remind that it is through supporting our industry that we will ALL do better in the end.

Let’s not forget that although a large percentage of people have been able to get back to work …the live music industry, along with much of the hospitality and tourism industry hasn’t …. many of our favourite musicians and event company workers are on the dole, and suffering mental health issues. …

we need our media to report positively on us, and support the return of live music regularly in their reporting.

Let’s push the music media to agitate on our behalf.

We need government to find money to get us through this time, lots of it… we need them to Save Our Stages, as has been done in the US and across Europe through large grants, tax write offs and investment… and as well create a business interruption insurance policy to incentivise event presenters to put on events… and be protected in not going to the wall should an out break of Covid shut down their businesses at short notice… and protect that artists, crew  and Suppliers will get paid should that occur… the Federal government did it more than six months ago for the Film Industry to get them back to making movies… why are we still waiting?

If you possibly can…please hold on to your tickets, as concerts and events are RE-scheduled ….again.

Do you know that for each ticket refunded, there is a service charge from the ticket agency… up to $8?

The show presenters , facing up to two years of no shows… is charged for this, after having paid staff to work on the show, bought advertising and paid a deposit to the artist which will be returned with costs deducted… this isn’t sustainable for our industry… and will result in less promoters and less shows..particularly in the indie area.

Our issues haven’t gone away… they just aren’t being discussed regularly… and they aren’t being reported, as our industry …endures this marathon of waiting….and in so many cases not being able to wait any longer … and businesses closing, as well as very talented people leaving our industry.

It’s up to us to look out for each other and Live music….I know many of you are suffering in silence.

However, it’s time to raise our voices…. we are the Live Arts…. and we love what we do, and we are a fundamental part of society… and it is unjust for government not to support us more than they have financially …simply by extending Job Keeper to those industries they have regulated not to be able to get back to work without major restrictions… the Live Music Industry, we will see many of our fellow workers be laid off when it end in March. How can that be justified on any level.?

There is so much for us to do.

please feel free to share your ideas, as well as my post.

Let’s find the way to get back…..we can do this, and have each other’s back at the same time

Thank you

Peter Noble OAM

by the partae January 20, 2021
written by the partae
UNUM Festival 2021 is 100% guaranteed to go ahead from June 3rd to 7th with the backing of the Albanian Ministries of Tourism, Environment, and Health. The gorgeous open air festival takes place over the stunning, sun kissed Albanian Riviera for five days of non stop music, dancing, relaxing and for the first time this year, will also include a special Culture Week offering with a rich array of art, performance and much more. The first headliners include Ricardo Villalobos, Seth Troxler, Priku, Praslea, tINI, Sonja Moonear, Shaun Reeves, Raresh, Cesar Merveille, Dyed Soundorom, Leon, Nikola Vemic, And.Re, Cap, Alex Kostic, Rayo, Nikifor, Nemax, Fogg, George Adi, Hajdar Berisha, Hiroko Yamamura, Nikola Vemic, Dona K, Franco Cinelli and more to come.

Say the team, “This event will 100% take place in a responsible way and Covid secure fashion as it has full government approval, regardless of restrictions in other countries. So even if it has to become an event for just locals or those able to travel, then this is what will happen. This is thanks to Swallow Events, our partners in this, providing their rapid testing service for the festival to ensure everyone who enters is tested and virus-free beforehand. We are taking all measures required to ensure safety measures are followed at all times and there will be zero tolerance on this matter.”

In its first year, the close-knit UNUM was a brand new festival that made an immediate mark because it was a friendly coming together of real music lovers in an amazing region of the world. It played out on the beautiful, organic and natural Albanian Riviera with a world class line-up of house, minimal and techno DJs.  The festival really shined a spotlight on Rana e Hedhun, the last untapped corner of Europe in the town of Shengjin, on the idyllic Albanian coastline. Music played, and will play again, across day and night, with blissful sunrise and sunset parties, water sports, plenty of local culture, food and drink offerings and a music loving crowd from all corners of the world.

Where are you currently based? Melbourne What's been happening recently and how has your Covid experience been so far? Akaysha: 2020 was an absolute write off, I feel like I literally stared out the window for 8 months. Did manage to cook up some pretty good food.  Hannah: I reincarnated and became Hai Priestess.. the cocoon was pretty dark for a while there.  Sal: I mixed herbal teas and sent them to my family and friends (sorry family and friends). I also wrote some terrible apocalyptic songs and talked to my greyhound (a lot). How and why did Queens of Club form? Akaysha: Our periods all synced & Mercury was in retrograde. Hannah: The planets aligned in all seriousness, it just clicked. It feels like we were meant to meet each other, and the first time we hung out it just made so much sense. Initially it was just three female producers coming together to hang out, share ideas and support each others work in a male dominated field - but naturally we started chopping up and adding to each others songs. Queens of Club was born out of play.  Sal: all the above What are your musical backgrounds? Akaysha: I started learning piano, guitar and drums as a kid, I always wanted to start a band but could never find anyone. Around 14 I started making electronic music & Djing as it was something I could do solo. I released a lot of electro house under Kaysh then evolved into more downtempo electronica as Ok Sure. 20 years later I have finally managed to start that band!  Hannah: I learned piano and guitar and began playing folk music shows at around 15, I was never an amazing musician, but loved songwriting, construction and performing. I always wanted to be in a band and it wasn't until I was 26 when I formed Bonnie Doom and Pow Pow Kids, I spent a number of years playing around town. I loved the production side of things, and after we recorded albums for both those bands and I got an insight into recording, I started to get the itch to produce myself. I released a solo album that I wrote and produced in 48 hours called Bonnie The Kid - Xanadu, and from there I was hooked and developed as the producer Syntax/Semantics for some years to reach my final incarnation Hai Priestess in Queens of Club. Sal: I started with jazz and classical piano, and dabbled with electronic music software in my early teens. My mum made me take opera lessons (why?!) so for a while there I was singing dramatic operatic German pieces after school with an unnecessarily strict teacher – maybe one day I’ll tap into that (Queens, consider yourselves warned). How did your track 'Bones' come about? Akaysha: This was one of my old songs back from 2015 that was never officially released, the girls had some ideas and it evolved to what you hear today. Sal: I fell in love with Akaysha’s original version of Bones and needed more it in my life. How did you go about writing the track? Akaysha: Sal took my original version and added more lyrics, a proper hook & rearranged it, all skills that I lack in songwriting, if I’m left to my own devices I’d probably be stuck in an instrumental loop for 5 hours.  Hannah: I didn't have much to do with this one except tell them it was a banger and a bit of "woo woo" high vocals.  Sal: For a few weeks, I listened to Akaysha’s version obsessively every time I did the dishes, singing new ideas for it as I went. The dishes weren’t cleaned well, but I’m very happy with this version of Bones and that’s more important. Where and when did you record/produce/master and what equipment did you use? Akaysha: I started recording this 6 years ago, I can't remember what gear I used, probably all soft synths, I don’t use a lot of hardware. All produced, mixed and mastered in my bedroom studio.  Sal: ALL the magic happens in Akaysha’s bedroom studio. What did you find most challenging and rewarding during the creation process? Akaysha: As I said I have a habit of getting stuck in an instrumental loop. Sal and Hannah are more in tune with vocals & arranging & catchy hooks so it’s great to collab with them, they breathe new life into all the half finished stuff I have lying around. Obviously there are always a few creative differences but nothing major and we can generally all agree on a final outcome.  Hannah: The most rewarding thing is getting to hang out and be creative with close friends, it's just super fun.  Sal: I respectfully agree with my Queens. You are very much a sensory live act with the use of costumes, visuals/audio - how did this come to be? Akaysha: We wanted Queens Of Club to be just as much of a visual experience as an audio one. Instead of us all standing behind computers we thought putting placemats on our heads and dancing around would be way more interesting. Hannah: It's a natural evolution for us, we all love dress-ups, costume, theatre... all kinds of art forms. This is a playground for us where we throw ideas around and see what sticks and what doesn't, and there's some wacky shit in those minds of ours. We are so different, yet so complementary and so because QOC is so authentically who we are when we come together it's a natural unfolding - we don't look at or listen to others and try to copy or follow trends. We're just being creative with the things, sounds, looks, ideas we like.  Sal: because Akaysha cannot stop herself from attaching homewares to her person. How do the costume, visuals and audio creatives for the live show come about? Akaysha: A lot of hot glue guns, trips to the Kmart homewares section and tassels were involved.  Hannah: We are very DIY, and between us we have some pretty random skills so we manage to make it all ourselves (so far - but we'd love to collaborate). We share images, videos, anything really that catches our eye and is inspiring, and pretty quickly the visual elements just started to come together - it's a very strong vision and we somehow could see what the others were seeing too. We wanted to create an entire world and experience.. It's so boring standing around watching people with egos play their instruments. We wanted to remove the ego, and make it about the audience.. not us.  Who are you listening to at the moment?

DZ DEATHRAYS RELEASE BIG F**K OFF ROCK SONG 'ALL OR NOTHING' FROM HIGHLY ANTICIPATED POSITIVE RISING: PART 2 (OUT FRIDAY 9 JULY 2021)
Music News

DZ DEATHRAYS RELEASE BIG F**K OFF ROCK SONG ‘ALL OR NOTHING’ FROM HIGHLY ANTICIPATED POSITIVE RISING: PART 2 (OUT FRIDAY 9 JULY 2021)

by the partae January 20, 2021
written by the partae

I OH YOU are fired up to present DZ Deathrays second single ‘All or Nothing’ lifted from their fifth studio album Positive Rising: Part 2 (out Fri 9 July 2021), the highly anticipated follow up from 2019’s Positive Rising: Part 1.

Premiering yesterday on triple J’s Drive, ‘All or Nothing’ is a testament to the objects that serve as reminders of home when the band are far from it.

“It’s reminiscent of touring life and the idea that something like a guitar can bring so much joy and adventure to our lives,” Parsons explains.

One of the hardest songs on the record to finish, Parsons rewrote the music over and over in different keys “to try see where it would go”. After six attempts it wound up right where it started: as a rollicking, garage epic that shifts key from verse to chorus. In other words: a classic DZ Deathrays song. “It’s the flip-side to some of the other tracks that look out into the world: this one looks into our little world.” 

Guitar hero ‘All or Nothing’ follows the anthemic sonic pep talk ‘Fired Up’ which was eaten up by fans and critics alike, seeing adds to international rock playlists on Spotify and Apple Music, hitting the 9th most played song on triple j just last week and receiving coverage from Rolling Stone AU, NME AU and Blunt Mag. Recently dropping the heartfelt acoustic version of the track while in iso, DZ take a step back from their punchy beats and melting riffs to substitute with a mix of soothing guitar plus cello, completely transforming the high energy tune into a romantic ballad.

DZ sent listeners into a frenzy when teaming up with one of their favorite bands, WAAX,  to deliver two absolutely belting covers – DZ reworking ‘FU’ and WAAX bringing their signature style to a rendition of ‘Fired Up’. Both bands molding the others’ song into passionate, head banging goodness that demands to be listened at full volume.

In celebration of their forthcoming album Positive Rising: Part 2, DZ have collaborated with the legends at Built To Spill to launch ‘DZ Deathrays Positive Sparkling Cremant’ – party fizz for one of Australia’s most high energy bands. The special release Pet Nat is made up of certified organic chenin blanc from Margaret River, WA. Positive Sparkling Cremant is finished like traditional sparkling wine, making it the ultimate thirst crusher yet still ultra-crisp and clean. Fans can order this limited-edition Pet Nat bundled with a digital pre-order of Positive Rising: Part 2 via Built To Spill while stocks last!

With a moodier tone than its predecessor, Positive Rising: Part 2 draws the outline of an apocalyptic scene, one that sees the band – Shane Parsons, Simon Ridley and Lachlan Ewbank – stepping outside of themselves, seeking out new perspectives and surveying the world from above. From up there, they don’t always like what they see, but Positive Rising: Part 2 offers a somewhat-hopeful ending to the sprawling rock saga.

‘All Or Nothing’ is coated in classic DZ Deathrays punk attitude, demanding attention to what they do best; slashing guitars and heavy riffs. The sonic mastermind gives a peak into the little world of DZ Deathrays and what Positive Rising: Part 2 has in store for fans.

French artist Laure Briard shares new single and lyric video 'Supertrama', new EP Eu Voo out Friday 19 February
Music News

French artist Laure Briard shares new single and lyric video ‘Supertrama’, new EP Eu Voo out Friday 19 February

by the partae January 20, 2021
written by the partae
“[Laure Briard is] one of the most endearing figures of the current French music scene.”
– Les Inrocks
Seignosse-based French artist Laure Briard today returns with mesmerising new track ‘Supertrama’, taken from EP Eu Voo, due February 19 via Dinosaur City Records (Australia/NZ), Midnight Special (EU) and Michel Records (North America).

Stream/share ‘Supertrama’ lyric video and track here.

‘Supertrama’ began with a piano melody Laure wrote in France, before taking the track to Brazilian musician and composer Giovanni Cidreira, who helped write the lyrics (sung in Portugese). The track was then brought to life in real time within the walls of the Dissenso Studio in São Paulo, where Laure recorded Eu Voo with acclaimed psych group, Boogarins.

Talking about the song’s creative process, Briard says, “I met Giovani through the Boogarins, who he both collaborates and shares a friendship with. I admire Giovani’s voice, his words, his stories, and the possibility of working with him one day quickly became a reality. Once I’d written the melody of ‘Supertrama’, I took the plunge and asked Giovani if he would write the lyrics with me. He took the melody and wrote lyrics which don’t quite tell a story, but rather feelings, impressions, and memories. Just like the rest of the EP, the arrangements were made in real time in the studio. Pieuvre Convex was responsible for the final modulation of the track – he’s a king in that area!”

Laure Briard – Eu Voo
Out February 19, 2021
Pre-order here

1. Eu Voo
2. Morena Na Janela
3. Não Me Diz Nada
4. Passaros
5. Supertrama
6. Respire

‘Supertrama’ follows the release of EP title track ‘Eu Voo’, released in November 2020, which coincided with a #StayAwayShow performance supporting Chilly Gonzales on La Blogothèque.

A modern day Françoise Hardy, Laure Briard draws influences from pop, garage rock, bossa nova and psychedelic yé-yé. Laure has released 3 x albums, 2 x EPs and a handful of well-received singles, and to date has amassed over one million streams across her catalogue, which includes singles ‘Cravado’ and ‘Une évasion’, which features on Netflix Series Emily in Paris.

Laure’s latest EP, Eu Voo will be released digitally and on vinyl on February 19, 2021 via Dinosaur City Records (Australia/NZ), Midnight Special (EU) and Michel Records (North America).

Supertrama Lyrics (Portugese)

Depois que a noite cai é mais difícil
De carregar o coração pra sair
A lua negra é o sol tentando
Tiro magro
Que outra forma reluz
Voltei no tempo em que você era pequeno
Aquele corredor tem a mesma cor
Não é fácil
Quem girou as leis
Quem fez o desenho em seu rosto
Quem partiu
Quem não mentiu
Quem te amou
Supersupertrama
Aqueço minha cama
Nesse sonho eu não sei jogar

Supertrama Lyrics (English)

After the night falls, it’s easier
To carry the heart to leave
The black moon is the sun trying
Slim chance
How else will it shine
I went back in time to when you were little
That hallway has the same color
It’s not easy
Who spun the laws
Who made the drawing on your face
Who left
Who didn’t lie
Who loved you
Supersupertrama
I warm my bed
In this dream, I don’t know how to play
