To Be Ruined

you
appear
i can feel you in every particle
and i don’t care
though i should
if you have her
if i have her

and i always have to be on something 

good enough
just for you to be here
only wanted to die
since i had something to live for
and i scare you
speaking these absolutes
but i’m young and i’m dumb 
so what other chance will i get?

if i always had to be on something 
would you stay?

Press on DENM
“Doing it right with a sick garage influenced house track, newcomer DENM has got the beat hot and the sound down cold.” –Your EDM

“Best of 2016… his unique brand of vocal is sure to stand out.” –Audio Drums

“Electronic garage-pop may not be a familiar genre to most, or one that even existed before DENM appeared on the scene.” –Dancing Astronaut

DENM’s debut EP, Dreamhouse, featuring “Under Pressure,” released August 26.

Previous single, “Lit” by DENM, also now out on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/6hrOM3yfx3SEtARzDWMikb

“When I was writing these songs, I pictured myself playing a house party in a dingy little beach town. Like, all these super-sweaty college kids dancing so hard. That’s the atmosphere of my music: a little town that makes a lot of noise.” DENM makes good on that promise with his debut EP, Dreamhouse, and single “Under Pressure,” which are awash with natural uppers. Hailing from Santa Barbara and having been in a handful of bands, he has spent every spare moment writing for this project.
 
Investing arduous hours into studio time, mingling pop and garage rock with BPMs and R&B, the musician admits his craft takes a ton of discipline. “I don’t smoke weed and… wait for inspiration. I’ll get in the studio and hustle—like, write 10 songs on the guitar just to get one good one,” then adding texture using synths and more guitars, producing the tracks himself into a hybrid between deep house, R&B, and pop.

When Doves Cry [Prince tribute]

'Inherently Low' is the first single from the new Nots record 'Cosmetic.'

Cosmetic is released on Heavenly Recordings on Friday 9th September.

Nots are still a wild guitar band, but above and below the guitar, bass and drum pound, Alexandra Eastburn's analog synth blurps melodies and nonsense, teasing squiggles of freedom which defy the false grid of modern life.

With Hoffmann on guitar & vocals, Eastburn on synth, Charlotte Watson beating drums, and Meredith Lones steering a solid path through the chaos on bass, Nots are neither content with the smug "stare at your shoes" approach of bands from both coasts, nor an Earth-hugging "we need to get back to nature" hippie copout. There might not be any answers here. That might be the point. Nots have arrived at the next level of their attack with a confidence and a music that lays waste to the wasteland without romantic attachment to a thing.

Signed to legendary Memphis rock ‘n’ roll label Goner in the U.S. Cosmetic follows the U.K. release of We Are Nots, their debut album, on Heavenly in November of last year.

Having played a short run of UK dates earlier this year, including a sold-out show at London’s Lexington and a brace of acclaimed performances at the Great Escape, the band are set to bring their ferociously urgent live show back to the UK later this year.

NOTS are: Natalie Hoffman (guitar / vocals), Charlotte Watson (drums), Meredith Lones (bass) & Alexandra Eastburn (synthesizer).

Cosmetic

Inherently Low - Nots

"Take Me Down is about the struggle to overcome jealousy, and the feeling that you'll never compare to somebody else. It's the contradiction of desiring to be more like another and the adamance that you can rise above it."

Released 15th July 2016. Produced by Draper.

Take Me Down

Luck is the second single by Tetish.
Watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONoPR4NlZ24

Tetish, the brainchild of Etan Salomon and  Itai Shitrit, are set to release their debut self-titled album, out 28th of July.

The duo have been active members of the local Tel-Aviv indie music scene for a number years now, both having released material while working on different projects, but it wasn’t until after the long-time friends started to play around with a few ideas towards the end of 2014 that they discovered they were able to take each other’s music to the next level.

18 months on and the pair have achieved a dynamic sound perfectly encapsulated on their debut album, with a medley of influences from pop and rock all the way through to classical and middle eastern music, giving Tetish a deep, rich, complex and ultimately unique sound. Openers Luck and Glow draw comparison with artists such as Laura Mvula, Lucius and Tune Yards, as well as musicians like Jesse Ware, whereas Shipwreck explores the band’s pop/rock leanings and is a nod to influences ranging from The Cardigans to Bat For Lashes. Salomon explains “the album is about the longing for self-fulfilment, about the struggle between reality and our hopes, dreams and ideals, in life, in art and in relationships.” 

Both Salomon (vocals/keyboards) and Shitrit (keyboards/vocals) are classically trained musicians which becomes apparent on the record as they showcase their skills through the quality of their musicianship and arrangements. Their sound is further enhanced by Nir Shlomo (guitars/vocals), Noam Shacham (bass/vocals) and Daniel Azta (drums/vocals) who joined from Shitrit’s previous band Kalbey Ruach and are notable for their session work with bands such as Eatlitz, Brain Candies and Lola Marsh respectively.

Tetish are intensely determined to expose the world to their sound as they attempt to reach and relate to as many people as they possibly can. It’s been a great start for the band as their demos were picked up by some of the biggest local radio stations as well as being picked up for CMW in Toronto, CMJ in New York and this summer’s WOMAD Festival in the UK. While in the UK, they are planning to play a number of dates with details due to be announced in early summer 2016.

Tetish’s self-titled album is out via Solarie Records on the 28th of July 2016.

Summer Lifeguard

Gaining airplay across the UK and beyond from a range of tastemaker names including BBC Radio 6, BBC Introducing, talkSport Radio, Amazing Radio, Radio X, Sirius XM, Jack Saunders on BBC Radio 1, KINK in the Netherlands and Inter FM in Japan, False Heads have also gained placements on Apple Music’s ‘New in Rock’, Spotify’s ‘All New Rock’, Deezer’s ‘Hot New Rock’ and Amazon Music’s ‘Best New Bands’ playlists. 

Their live show is a legendary spectacle, a whirlwind of sweat, mosh pits, and unbridled joy. Having cut their teeth on the grimy underbelly of the UK club scene, the band's stage presence is electrifying, a potent mix of punk-rock fury and post-punk swagger. They've shared stages with the likes of The Libertines, Josh Homme, Frank Turner, David Byrne and Queens of the Stoneage, and their infectious energy has won over crowds across the globe. They’ve also sold out iconic venues on their own headline shows such as The Windmill, The Grace, Oslo, The Louisana, Ramsgate Music Hall and played festivals such Reading, Isle of Wight, InMusic, Y Not, Tramlines, Rock for People. 

Their second album Sick Moon (produced by Frank Turner) stormed onto the UK Official Album Charts, landing a coveted spot within the Top 40 in the Album Sales Chart and number 2 in the Independent Album Breakers Chart. Their anthemic track "Rabbit Hole" has racked up over 1.5 million streams on Spotify, and 20,000 monthly listeners. The band has attracted a legion of devoted fans – including rock royalty like Simon Le Bon and Iggy Pop, legendary manager Danny Fields, and iconic Bangles guitarist Vicki Peterson.

False Heads are already hard at work on their third album, currently being recorded under the esteemed guidance of Grammy Award-winning producer Adrian Bushby. With his Midas touch on records by Muse, Foo Fighters, U2 and Placebo, this collaboration promises to elevate the band's sound to new heights.
