Montreal’s Black Atlass is a voice you can't forget, charting new territory somewhere in-
between modern R&B, experimental electronic production, and classic singer/songwriter confessionals.

His debut single "Paris" was praised by music obsessives ("soulful, electronic-tinged tracks that tug at the heartstrings" - Stereogum), and high-end fashionistas alike, earning praise in Vogue and scoring Louis Vuitton ads while garnering the personal attention of everyone from Woodkid (who enlisted Black Atlass to open dates on his European tour) to Dior Homme (who invited BA to their Paris Fashion Week presentations and styled him for the front row). 

Beyond these blog props and style bonafides, however, there's substance in his music that sets Black Atlass apart from his contemporaries. It pulses all throughout the new Young Bloods EP, six tracks that more than live up to their title with knotty chords, unexpectedly muscular beats, and the ethereal vocals that tie it all together. From “Blossom’s” handclap funk and the D'Angelo worthy boom bap of "Free Angel" to the primal howl of distorted closer "Jewels," Young Bloods is the latest chapter in the story of a raw and electrifying new talent.

Be The Bear is the Art Pop baby of Danish/English artist & producer Christina Wehage. Her singles “Bad Things” and "Bump" topped the iTunes charts in Sweden. Since then the music has been celebrated internationally. Be The Bear’s debut is to be released in 2015.

“Scandinavia once again proves to be a musical paradise … The voice of the singer seems to swim in places recalling the best achievements of Björk, or the charismatic voice of Florence Welch.”
- Music Is, Poland

“Danish/English siren Christina Wehage births experimental pop under the name of Be The Bear. Ever wondered what it would sound like if School of Seven Bells made love to Björk whilst on speed? New single ‘Coffee Kids’ is just that.”
- acid stag, Australia

“If the pop music industry in the UK has any respect for itself, Be The Bear will be hailed like Gotye or Fun. Niki and the Dove might be the latest cover story for Scandinavian pop, but that may soon shift to highlight Be The Bear and rightfully so” 5/5 – Samuel Litherland, Born Music UK

“a multcoloured melody that eschews early Björk and Niki and the Dove. Surging forth on a joyous ride of electro pop that shoos and coos bad karma away from your body”
- God Is In The TV Zine, UK

“Be The Bear’s tasty brand of electro pop had me hooked on my very first listen. Her voice slays me.”
- Syffal, USA

“Scandinavian indiepop act Be The Bear have recently released their debut EP Fireships into the global arena, creating a musical landscape full of indiefolk, dance and electropop. Topping the Swedish iTunes charts with single Bad Things and enjoying airplay in the US, Singapore, Germany and Japan, Be The Bear are helping Scandinavian pop gain worldwide status.”

Bump

MAKE ME A BIRD

I told her “thank you” she said “that’s it” I got real nervous she kissed my lips and in that moment I swore she was all mine we got to talkin’ and she began to compliment me said that she likes the way I sing and perhaps she could help me but I was caught up in the pain behind her eyes…she said make me a bird I’ll fly away beyond the confines of the sick, sick game I said make me a bird and I’ll fly too don’t care where just want to spend some time with you a little time with you…just a blue eyed boy and a green eyed girl under the brightest moon of the whole damn year and I thought I’d wake up to find this a dream her eyes make diamonds look like loose change the kind that make a man lose track of what he’s sayin’ like… she said make me a bird I’ll fly away beyond the confines of the sick, sick game I said make me a bird and I’ll fly too don’t care where just me and you listen don’t want to play the game just want your time and if I occupy the contents of your mind then make me a bird I’ll fly with you don’t care where just want to sit and spit the truth… just a blue eyed boy and a green eyed girl under the brightest moon of the whole damn year and I… she said make me a bird I’ll fly away beyond the confines of the sick, sick game I said make me a bird and I’ll fly too don’t care where just me and you listen don’t want to play the game just want your time and if I occupy the contents of your mind then make me a bird I’ll fly with you don’t care where just want to sit and spit the truth…make me a bird God make me a bird make me a bird God make me a bird
