Le Youth

‘C O O L (Ben Pearce Remix)’ 

(Ultra Records / Sign Of The Times)

 

Release date: 30.06.13

Los Angeles native LE YOUTH’s debut single “C O O L” is a velvety summer anthem that sounds more 1993 than 2013. With irresistibly catchy vocals, the track blends West Coast leisure and European chic into an entirely new creation that is equal parts future and retro.  The high-fashion video for “C O O L” (reminiscent of a 90s Calvin Klein photo shoot) made its debut last week and has been doing the rounds ever since. The EP will be officially released on JULY 2 but you can pre-order the original (plus remixes by ColeCo, Lane 8 & Henry Krinkle HERE. Keep an eye out as well for remixes from Ben Pearce, DJ Sliink & Figgy throughout the summer.

Singer-songwriter Kyle Andrews is still intent on making everyone smile – and thus he announces the release of his next album, Brighter Than The Sun July 23^rd via his own Elephant Lady Records imprint. He has several deliriously catchy albums under his belt and has become best known for his 2010 hit “You Always Make Me Smile.” The song was featured in a worldwide ad campaign and the videogarnered 2.2+ million views & was shot during an attempt to make the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest water balloon fight.  “The Way To Wonder” begins with light acoustic-guitar strumming and handclaps, quickly building up to an epic climax.

San Fermin Announces Debut Self-Titled Album On Downtown Records+Sonsick (Stream)

San Fermin Announces Debut Self-Titled Album On Downtown Records on September 17th

Brooklyn musician Ellis Ludwig-Leone, the songwriter and composer behind San Fermin, has announced his signing to Downtown Records and the subsequent release of his self-titled, debut album San Fermin on September 17. Ludwig-Leone, who studied music composition at Yale University, envisioned the album’s concept prior to writing the music or knowing who would perform it. Pulling inspiration from Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises, he conceived the album as a dialogue between an earnest, unhappy man and a cynical, elusive woman. Upon Ludwig-Leone’s graduation he traveled to the Canadian Rocky Mountains where he wrote the album over the course of six weeks. “Writing for a group of unknown musicians gave the writing process a kind of operatic scope,” Ludwig-Leone says. On his return he enlisted the help of longtime friend and vocalist Allen Tate as well as female vocalists Holly Laessig and Jess Wolfe (Lucius) to give voices to the characters he developed.

A pastiche of post-rock, chamber-pop and contemporary classical composition, San Fermin is strongly influenced by Ludwig-Leone’s unique background in classical music, and the album fittingly features instrumentalists from the likes of Bon Iver, yMusic, and Asphalt Orchestra. A composer of instrumental music as well, Ludwig-Leone recently finished a ballet score for BalletCollective (comprised of New York City Ballet members), to be premiered by ACME at the Joyce Theater this summer, and is currently arranging a piece with Sonic Youth‘s Lee Ranaldo for the Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop. He is an assistant to the composer Nico Muhly.

Konec ‘Futures EP’ (+Kill City Preview ) Out 28th May on Firepower Records

Up next on Firepower, the label is turning to the other side of the Atlantic with a new four-track EP by 19 year-old producer Konec from Southampton, UK. Already sparking serious interest with his earlier productions such as ‘Immortal’ and ‘Forever’, the new ‘Futures EP’ is set to cast him firmly into the spotlight.

Opening the EP, the titular track’s panoramic soundscapes and winding melodies set the scene for proceedings, carried off into the night by a fierce drum & bass rhythm and warped bassline. Konec then teams up with singer Anna Yvette on ‘The Void’ for the first of two collaborations on the EP. Showcasing a different shade to his productions, the track’s deep subs and shimmering chords blend with Yvette’s yearning vocals on this emotive slow burner. Up next ‘Kill City’ is pure impact, blending the 808 swagger of trap with rolling 8-bit arpeggios and choice vocal shouts. To complete the EP, Konec teams up with friend and collaborator xKore on ‘Railgun’, a track as mercilessly ferocious as its title may suggest. Calling upon hardstyle for inspiration, it’s propulsive 4×4 skeleton drives a booming bassline and flailing synths built for destruction.

Showcasing a talent way beyond his years, ‘Futures’ is a bold statement from Konec. Bringing both depth and diversity to the four tracks on offer here, it is no wonder so much attention is starting to come his way.

Track List:

1.Futures

2.The Void ft. Anna Yvette

3.Kill City

4.Railgun ft. xKore
