Pop renegade Noga Erez has released an incredible live performance video of her razor sharp new single, “NAILS– watch HERE. The performance, showing off her trademark swaggering attitude, was filmed earlier this year at her show at the Menora Arena in Tel Aviv, Israel.

 

On “NAILS” Erez and her collaborative and life partner Ori Rousso playfully explore the grip that takes hold when jealous thoughts flood our consciousness, fleshing them out with defiant beats and her effortless vocal flow. With a talent and style as formidable as her own, even Erez isn’t safe from the wrath of the green-eyed monster. Rather than run from this negativity, she tackles the gargantuan emotion head on with humor and wit, minimizing it with her animated mantra “I’ll bump a bitch / flesh pieces in my nails.

 

An acclaimed live performer, Erez has sold out shows at legendary venues including LA’s El Rey and NY’s Bowery Ballroom. Following select festival dates and shows supporting Tove Lo this summer, Noga will open for Florence + The Machine at Madison Square Garden in September.

ABOUT NOGA EREZ

Since the release of her debut album Off The Radar in 2017 via City Slang, the world has changed significantly for Noga Erez and her musical & life partner Ori Rousso. The Tel-Aviv based musician and producer gained critical acclaim for her first LP, so the hype around her second album was understandably high. Together, Erez and Rousso took their time to finalize the tracklist for what would become their second album, KIDS.

 

Whilst Off The Radar felt more politically charged in terms of its lyrical content and a strong emphasis in the press on Erez’s hometown of Tel Aviv, 2021’s KIDS was a natural evolution into more personal spheres. Through clever lyrics, slick production and commanding beats, Erez blazed an exhilarating musical trail through grief, inner violence, relationships and growth, acknowledging the internal and external factors that affect these elements. The record propelled her into the global spotlight, earning her a ‘Best Pop Album’ nomination from A2IM, nearly 20 million YouTube views and garnering a legion of famous fans in the process, including Billie Eilish, Finneas, Gal Gadot, Marion Cotillard, Katy Perry & Hayley Williams.

 

From performing to a packed hometown crowd at the Menora Arena in Tel Aviv, to selling out shows in Europe and the United States, as well as playing stages at festivals like Primavera, Austin City Limits, Outside Lands, Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo & Shaky Knees, Erez’s sound pulses with ambitious, authentic energy. Now, with two full length releases under her belt and newly signed to Neon Gold/Atlantic Records, she has cemented her status as a formidable voice in the world of alternative pop, one which stands head and shoulders above the rest.

18+ / 6pm

Meth Math's 2020 EP, Pompi, bedded down the thriving energy present in CDMX’s neo-perrero scene, but Meth Math’s influences actually come from much further afield, citing both Enya and Autechre amongst them. Their latest single, “Tambaleo”, was produced by one of Minty Boi shows alumni / our favorite Sega Bodega. Don't sleep!

"One of SUNMI's strengths has always been her artistic flexibility, and unwillingness to be shackled to any one style for too long. [...] 'Heart Burn' and 'Childhood' are a sharp change of direction, tugging you towards light-drenched yet bittersweet, summery pop."
Vogue UK

"The reputable superstar continues to find new methods to break ground with her empowering hits and now manages to use both her influence and artistry to be a voice for many. "
Vanity Teen
K-pop megastar SUMNI has made a stunning comeback with two brand new singles, "열이올라요 (Heart Burn)" and "풋사랑 (Childhood)." Alongside the release, she has shared a music video for "Heart Burn," a bubble-gum pop number decked out with synths and heart-pounding basslines. Throughout the visual, SUNMI travels through time, catching the eye of a new lover in each setting she enters. As it turns out, though, this eye-catching vixen has a deadly streak.

Speaking on "Heart Burn," SUNMI writes: "'Heart Burn' is a single that depicts a hot midsummer love story."

Stay tuned for more new music from SUNMI this year.

The Krayolas unleash lost “Bubblegum Soul” debut album ‘Happy Go Lucky’

The Krayolas unleash lost “Bubblegum Soul” debut album ‘Happy Go Lucky’

krayolas happy go lucky

Box Records and Saustex bring you ‘Happy Go Lucky’ the second archival release from San Antonio‘s Krayolas. The first single from the album is ‘All of the Time’ - songwriter, vocalist and guitarist Hector Saldana recalls: “All of the Time” was a favorite of Kim Fowley (Runaways manager/producer) and Greg Shaw (Bomp! Magazine & Records). Both wanted to sign us. Barry and I met with them in L.A. in summer 1979. They liked the garage, pop-punk sound. Shaw wanted every one of our songs to sound like that.”

Contemporarily the band is often heard on Little Steven’s Underground Garage on Sirius XM and these lovingly restored recordings will take you back to the dawn of the MTV era...brimming with excitement and possibility the band folded Latin R&B, Motown and the poppier side of their sixties chart-making heroes into their already well defined garage and power pop sound with the help of the legendary original West Side Horns. Imagine Dexy’s Midnight Runners debut ‘Searching For The Young Soul Rebels’ if rendered more slickly by Texans as a starting point. Fully half the tracks were culled from 1982 masters that were thought lost for good and now see their first release.

The limited edition Neon Orange LP in gatefold package is sure to be one of the most collectible records of the year.

DESIRE SHARES NEW VIDEO FOR “DAYS & NIGHTS” + PITCHFORK BERLIN & PITCHFORK LONDON ANNOUNCED

DESIRE SHARES NEW VIDEO FOR “DAYS & NIGHTS”



EUROPEAN DATES + PITCHFORK BERLIN AND PITCHFORK LONDON SHOWS ANNOUNCED



NEW ALBUM ESCAPE OUT NOW VIA ITALIANS DO IT BETTER

Desire returns with their new video "Days & Nights- the seventh from their campy Escape saga, which came out earlier this year via Italians Do It Better. The band have also announced a run of European shows for this November.


Tossing & turning through the sleepless hours, "Days & Nights" is a love song bruised with anxiety. Stardust sparkles in the night sky...while down below a brooding cloud hovers over the bed. Desire sings about graceful transcendence in the face of terror, "Love Is Stronger Than Us All". The drums sync to the chambers of the primary organ of the circulatory system, while a soft arpeggio pumps like blood to the brain. "Going To Take A Little Time To Kill The Pain…”


As for the "Days and Nights" video, it's an eye for an eye in this Sci Fi thriller killer. The heroine stares deep inside the fortune teller's crystal ball to a parallel dimension. As she sees herself strapped to the hood of a muscle car ala Mad Max, her fever dream comes to a boil. Blurring the timeline between past & future with a tall glass of green liquid, she quantum leaps. As cold blood pours from her eyes...she realizes she's death proof.


Desire is an electronic band formed in Montreal & currently based in Palm Springs. They make synth pop where film, fashion, & fantasy collide on the dancefloor. On stage, vocalist Megan Louise theatrically pivots between French & English while draped in latex from head to toe. From vixen to villain, she turns to predator with blood pumping thrill. Carrying the campy torch of Vaudeville into this century she is joined by composer Johnny Jewel (Chromatics, Glass Candy, Twin Peaks) on piano & drum machine.

Recently, OSEES announced their forthcoming album, A Foul Form, due August 12 via Castle Face Records. Thus far, they have shared two singles: "Funeral Solution" and "Perm Act," to much acclaim from publications such as StereogumFLOOD MagazineBrooklyn Vegan, and more.

On the forthcoming record, certified OSEES fan, Black Flag's Henry Rollins, wrote:

"Osees don’t seem to mutate or morph so much as remain extraordinarily open to what moves them to do next and capable of getting music done that’s consistently good. What motivated the band to turn loose this hyper-concentrated slightly less than 22 minute burst of meteor density somewhat punkazoidal music? When it comes to the Osees, that’s at best a mediocre inquiry as they just do the next thing, genre, prevailing tastes or whatever influence might guide a lesser unit are not even a consideration. A Foul Form is a cool pivot from their 2020 studio efforts Metamorphosed, Panther Rotate and Protean Threat. A Foul Form vigorously shakes the Oseesetch a sketch clear so whatever comes next (which will probably be sooner than later) will likely be something completely different yet again. As far as a potential inspirational indicator, you might notice the final track on A Foul Form is a cover of Rudimentary Peni’s Sacrifice, which can be found on their Farce 7” released in 1982. A fitting way to blow out this rad slice."
OSEES recently announced a Summer UK/EU Tour, on top of their Fall 2022 North American Tour with Bronze and Automatic, beginning in September and continuing through October. They just announced a show in Honolulu, taking place on August 26 — tickets are on sale now.
