As ONE DAY surfs up the radio and net waves further new tracks will rise with the coming tide of new album SUPERHAPPYFUNTIMESFRIENDS

Out of the great wide blue the guys have now dropped an album's worth of dynamic material all forthcoming over the next month or so on digital, vinyl, cassette, CD and even Playbutton. Shacked up in their Melbourne dwellings and put together in the midst of a enforced creative blizzard... it seems the concept of the album was not without value still as it afforded the more focused structure and disciplined approach they seem to require. Ahhh... the frenzy of an an artistic tempest whipped up by the wild seas of a deadline - all comes now pieced together under the title SUPERHAPPYFUNTIMEFRIENDS.

REGURGITATOR CRUISE
Also of note... Regurgitator's "UNIT" was not only recently voted #13 on the industry voted Triple J TOP 100 Australian albums... but has now come in at #10 on the public voted campaign... with Tu Plang at #44.

LIONEL RICHIE GUY SEBASTIAN

DUET OF ALL NIGHT LONG FOR CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKE &
QUEENSLAND FLOOD APPEALS


LIONEL RICHIE, GUY SEBASTIAN


A new collaboration between music legend Lionel Richie and Australia's Guy Sebastian of Lionel’s hit single All Night Long is now available for purchase and download from the iTunes store to raise funds for those affected by the Christchurch earthquakes and Queensland floods.

Grammy Award nominated producer RedOne - known as ‘the man behind Lady Gaga’ - also donated his time to the track, contributing irresistible club beats and smooth synthesizer effects to give the classic hit a modern twist and fresh new sound.

Plus, in what is set to be an unforgettable concert highlight, the two chart-topping stars will also perform the song live at all shows on their upcoming tour of Australia and New Zealand starting in New Zealand on March 18.

Lionel jumped at the chance to help those in Australia and New Zealand affected by these multiple natural disasters.

“The floods and earthquakes have caused damage on a scale not seen in our lifetime. I can think of no better use for one of my most successful copyrights than to help raise needed funds for the people of Australia and New Zealand. The people of these countries have been very good to me over the course of my career and I welcome the opportunity to return the kindness.”

“Music is meant to lift the spirit of mankind. There will always be the appropriate avenue for sombre reflection on what was lost in these disasters, however, I chose All Night Long because it will give people a reason to donate and celebrate the good times ahead instead of just dwelling on the past.”

Guy Sebastian said “Being offered the tour with Lionel is a real honour but getting to record with him is truly humbling. He is a legend and ‘All Night Long’ is one of his greatest songs and biggest hits so I'm still pinching myself. I hope people get behind it and support the appeals that the money is going to.”

Lionel Richie’s original composition ‘All Night Long (All Night)’ from his second solo album Can’t Slow Down was a smash hit in the 80s. The single peaked at #1 on Billboard Pop, R&B and Adult Contemporary charts as well as #1 on the ARIA Singles chart.

100% of proceeds from the sale of the single in Australia will be donated to the Queensland Premier’s Disaster Relief Appeal. 100% of proceeds from the sale of the single in New Zealand will be donated to the New Zealand Government Christchurch Earthquake Appeal.

The single is available now to purchase and download from the iTunes stores in Australia and New Zealand.

Lionel Richie and Guy Sebastian tour Australia and New Zealand from March 18 to April 6 with tickets on sale now.

DOUBLE GRAMMY AWARD WINNING ARTIST

ADELE

WORLD PREMIERE

PERFORMANCE ON

ELLEN


Don't want to get over excited, but, this is big news for Remote Control really, it's not every day you get one of your finest onto such a vastly popular show, and it's a good balance in Australia right now where Oprah is more or less dominating the charts as far as media goes.

For the world premiere performance of her brand new single ‘ROLLING IN THE DEEP’, UK chanteuse Adele graced the ever-popular ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW to deliver an amazing performance of what promises to be a massive hit song this summer. The award-winning artist staged an incredible, effortlessly flawless and stunning performance of her new single to millions of viewers, studio audience and fellow guests Hilary Swank and Mila Kunis.


‘ROLLING IN THE DEEP’ is the first single lifted off Adele’s eagerly anticipated follow-up to the award winning, double Grammy earning debut album ‘19’. The new album aptly titled ‘21’ was written and produced by Adele alongside the legendary RICK RUBIN, one of the most infamous and highly influential producers in modern music (credits include Beastie Boys, Run DMC, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Jay Z) and award winning producer PAUL EPWORTH (Florence and The Machine, Cee-Lo Green, Bloc Party). ‘21’ is set for release on the 21st of January 2011 via XL Recordings / Remote Control.

BLISS N ESO
LAUNCH INNOVATIVE TOUR CAMPAIGN

Sydney’s Bliss N Eso, a group that has long been at the forefront of the digital media game, have launched a campaign which enables their fans to decide the route of their next national tour.

It’s an unusual move for a band of their size, who last year completed the highest ever selling tour by an Australian hip-hop act, headlined some of the biggest festivals in the country and their latest album, Running on Air debuted at #1 in August this year.

Before becoming an all-conquering juggernaut, they built their fanbase through a combination of online promotion (in the ‘MySpace era’) and a never-ending touring schedule. In more recent years, they’ve focused touring internationally and in capital cities, but they’ve decided that it’s time to pay homage to the smaller towns once again.

The band have utilised a Facebook sharing application which enables entrants to gather the troops on their own personal page, amplifying the reach of their 200,000 fans to an infinite number of Australian Facebook users. Within 48 hours of launching, the competition had drawn tens of thousands of votes from across the country, and around the world.

As of Thursday 2pm AEST, the top five poll voters consisted of Wagga Wagga, the Sunshine Coast, Mount Gambier, the Blue Mountains and Sydney – making only one of them a capital city. Seemingly the more rural areas are seizing their opportunity to bring an act of Bliss N Eso’s size to their doorstep. The competition ends at 10pm AEST on Wednesday 8th December, with the winners announced on that Friday.

Competition link: www.blissneso.com/vote


Bliss N Eso have just released Reflections, the new single off their latest album – Running on Air. The upcoming festival season sees them play at the sold-out Southbound Festival on NYE before they take to the main stage at the (also sold-out) national Big Day Out tour.

KLAXONS Video that creeped out YouTube

November 30th 2010 02:05
KLAXONS UNLEASH NEW
‘TWIN FLAMES’ VIDEO


Klaxons have been the talk of the internet last week after their controversial video for recent single Twin Flames leaked online. Dubbed “an epically disgusting body horror fantasia” by Pitchfork, the video has already notched up a tonne of plays on various YouTube accounts before each being suspended for breaching their rules. See the new NSFW video officially HERE:





Twin Flames is the second single to be lifted from Klaxons acclaimed sophomore album Surfing The Void. Marked with its undeniable hands-in-the-air chorus, Twin Flames is nonsense out of context but gains power as a shared experience.

The new video was directed by long time creative collaborator Saam Farahmand, famed for his groundbreaking creations, explained; “The song is synonymous with the 1989 Brian Yuzna film 'Society', which inspired me as a child and is uncredited as informing some of the art and films we know today. The video is a homage to 'Society.'"

Farahmand was also responsible for the celestial video to ‘Echoes’, the first single from Klaxons’ new album ‘Surfing The Void’, which was released to worldwide acclaim in August.

On working with him again, Klaxons’ Jamie Reynolds said “As ever our director Saam Farahmand has taken what stems from an innocent discussion in regards to the meaning of the song and turned it into a visual playground - his finest work to date.”

Following their whirlwind stint down under earlier this year for a series of east coast showcase gigs, those four horsemen of 2012, Klaxons will return down under this summer for a National run of festival performances over New Years.

Barrelhouse
Announce Brand New Single No Hope
& Accompanying National Tour


Many young bands claim the ‘road warriors’ title but very few can hold such a claim up to the light the way Port Macquarie based blues / rock / roots 3 piece Barrelhouse can. Including support slots for the likes of Ani DiFranco, Blue King Brown, Jeff Lang, Mama Kin and Ash Grunwald, from east coast to west coast the last two years alone has seen the band play over 200 shows.



The Barrelhouse story begins in late 2008. The band sent a self confessed “crappy demo” into triple J. Roots n All started spinning it and within weeks the band was handpicked by the station as their ‘unearthed’ act to open the main stage of Coffs Harbour’s Open Arms Festival ( w’Grinspoon, Gyroscope, Mammal, TZU and many more).

Strong Triple J airplay around the unearthed win sent them to the top of the Triple J Unearthed ‘roots’ charts which, combined with a swift rising reputation on the North Coast live scene, led straight into a slots at Festival Of The Sun (Port Macquarie) and the East Coast Blues n Roots festival (Byron Bay). The ever increasing attention also saw the band sign with management company ‘Cross Section’, run by co directors Scott Mesiti (Director of Festival Of The Sun) and Ted Gardiner (manager of ‘The Brian Jonestown Massacre’).

Just surfaced from 301 studio’s in Byron Bay, the band are now proud to present No Hope, the first single to be lifted from their forthcoming debut album “Species Vagabond”, which is due for release early 2011.

Says front-man Dwayne Cameron:

“Species Vagabond covers all of the usual topics; lost love, lust, hopelessness, travelling, sticking it to the man and not having enough money. ‘No Hope’ was actually the last song we wrote for the album and didn’t really finish it till we got to the studio. It’s about being in the music industry and the feeling of hopelessness you get when you think of how long and hard you have worked towards your goal, how many sacrifices you have made, and yet in the eyes of a lot of people you are still considered a bum for not having a “real Job”

The truth is though, it's these people's comments that drive us harder. We actually have the best job in the world, travelling, festivals, meeting different people and not having any dreams in life because we're living them."

In true Barrelhouse Style the band have announced an absolute mammoth No Hope single launch tour that will see them criss cross the entire country right up into January @:

Choose Mics:

Since forming in 2006, Choose Mics has effortlessly and single-handedly
redefined the phrase 'all in a day’s work'; a pre album, a remix album, a
new full length LP, constant touring and collaborations with artists the
world over have left Haunts and Mules very busy indeed.

Owning the stage and the recording booth, Haunts is an MC's MC. Growing up in the UK, Haunts has a perspective and direction in his writing that very few other artists in Australia possess and is carving a name for himself as one of the most sought after hip hop artists in the country. His partner Mules is omnipotent in his approach. He has an ear for timing and perfect samples and has already established himself as one of the leading hip hop producers in the country with appearances on numerous nationwide releases that include Boltz ‘The Wishlist’ and a new collaboration album with Sydney duo Hyjak and Torcha titled ‘Unregrettable’.

On stage Choose Mics have an energetic stage presence and recently have left crowds up and down the east coast begging for more while touring with esteemed artists such as Delta, Phrase, Foreign Beggars, Vents one, Tornts, Bliss N Eso and Muph n Plutonic.
