London-based ELECTRO SWING singer of Eastern European heritage returns with the 2nd single on the path to her debut album. Sonia's debut album Black Sea is out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/blacksea

Where the previous single DARK EYES referenced her background with a musical quote from a traditional gypsy melody, LONDON ENERGY offers a completely different perspective on her adopted home.

With LILY ALLEN vibes, innit, Sonia takes a cheeky and affectionate look at life in the capitol complete with night buses, retro pop brass and an urban dance music influenced bass.

Another cheeky slice of life from London gal SONIA ELISHEVA matches a super catchy ELECTRO SWING chorus with hints of DISCO in the middle 8 strings. Sonia's debut album Black Sea is out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/blacksea

Her 3rd single on FRESHLY SQUEEZED continues the trademark humour with "You're flirtatious, it's outrageous - I don't wanna like but I do".
SONIA continues to gig in and around London as we build towards her album. Forthcoming singles will lean further into her Eastern European heritage with further full production videos to come.

Slated for a June 15th release through Transgressive Records, North London’s Gengahr are pleased to announce their debut album A Dream Outside with new single ‘Heroine’ - their most immediate track to date and another glimpse at what their debut is set to offer.

Picking up where 2014 left off Gengahr marked out their intentions for 2015 with an opening slot on Alt-J’s European tour and the release of the gloriously spellbinding ‘She’s A Witch’, which received acclaim from the likes of The Sunday Times, Independent, DIY and NME whilst being added to playlists on 6Music (C-list), Radio 1 (INMWT), Amazing Radio (A-list) and XFM (evening list).

Now on the dawn of their debut album - recorded and co-produced with James Bragg at Middle Farm Studios - the band are set to follow ‘She’s A Witch’ with new single ‘Heroine’; saccharine pop hooks that knit together the band’s woozier tendencies, marking the track out as one of the tauter moments on A Dream Outside. Led by its bounding bassline, it’s an earworm from the off, and as it descends into the murkier depths of guitarist John Victor’s solo thrashing things take a turn for the gigantic.

Heroine

Sonia Elisheva's debut album blends her Eastern European roots with jazz and electro swing influences, creating a unique and highly personal LP. Out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/blacksea

Pulling together cultural influences from half-remembered gypsy melodies & pop sensibilities, her songs explore themes of displacement, memory, home & identity, filtered through an adopted London street patter with trademark humour & irreverence.

How would the original songs of Fred Astaire sound with a contemporary arrangement and sung by some of the most energetic and still sensitive singers of nowadays?

Did you ever wonder how it would sound if 1990s party heroes Right Said Fred sang a song by 1930s/1940s dance and film legend Fred Astaire?

We didn’t either. And then we just tried it. The result was mind-blowing.

So we gathered some well-known old hands of the music biz and some promising newcomers to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Fred Astaire’s death with us and record 14 contemporary versions of the old master’s songs:

• Right Said Fred („I’m too sexy“)
• Taco („Puttin’ on the Ritz“)
• Alexander Rybak (European Song Contest Winner)
• Freak Power („Turn On, Tune In, Cop Out“)
• Alvin Chea (Member of multi-Grammy winner „Take Six“)
and many others.

Our 34th Electro Swing Thing label release is a remix by Pisk from Italy, who is the producer of the Swingrowers and resident artist on Freshly Squeezed Music from UK. Pisk has lifted the funky Electro Swing original track by Wolfgang Lohr to a Disco House meets Electro Swing level. A new hook and a groovy, driving bassline give this banger soul and disco feeling and lots of funky feeling. Florent Mannant’s (Dirty Honkers) original brass riffs are once again enhanced by some sampled additions and re-arrangements. The vocals of Alanna Lyes (UK) appear in a new light and the hook has become even more modern and precise due to the deliberate minimization. Pisk has given "Upside Down" his own style and a new, fresh note!
