Toro y Moi, the project of Bay Area-based artist Chaz Bear, has signed to Dead Oceans. Along with the news, he’s also announced that a new Toro y Moi album is slated for release in 2022 via the new label.
“I’m excited to begin this next chapter with Secretly / Dead Oceans!” Bear said in a statement. “Throughout the years they’ve continually maintained a conscious eye on the state of independent music and are pushing the boundaries of popular music. Thanks again to all my fans and supporters in making it this far with my music, your love and time is appreciated!”
Dead Oceans co-founder Phil Waldor commented: “Toro y Moi’s music has been omnipresent in our lives for over a decade now. Chaz has so many fans at Dead Oceans, and we’ve daydreamed a lot about what it would be like to get to work together. Chaz has such creative ambitions for Toro y Moi, and we can’t believe we get to wake up every day not just as fans, but as partners in his next chapter.”
Toro y Moi’s last studio album, Outer Peace, was released in 2019 via Carpark.
Nigerian-born, London-based singer Obongjayar has shared a new single, ‘Message in a Hammer’, the lead offering from his upcoming debut album. In a statement, Obongjayar said the song is “about fight, and fighting against the powers that take and steal and rob from us, and calling them by their name—thieves and murderers.” It comes with an accompanying video directed by Rollo Jackson and influenced by late ’90s gangster films. Check it out below.
Obongjayar released his Which Way Is Forward? EP in early 2020 and teamed up with Afrobeats producer Sarz on the Sweetness EP earlier this year. More recently, he made a guest appearance on Little Simz’s Sometimes I Might Be Introvert and Pa Salieu’s ‘Style & Fashion’
‘Dead Flowers’ is set to appear on DISCO4 :: PART II, the follow-up to HEALTH’s 2020 collaboration album DISCO4 :: PART I, which featured songs with 100 gecs, JPEGMAFIA, Soccer Mommy, Full of Hell, Ghostemane, and more.
Belfast band New Pagans have released ‘Find Fault With Me’, their first new music since the release of their debut album The Seed, The Vessel, The Roots and All earlier this year. Mixed by Sam Petts Davies (Radiohead, Frank Ocean, Red Hot Chilli Peppers), the track arrives with an accompanying video directed by bassist Claire Miskimmin. Watch and listen below.
Lead vocalist Lyndsey McDougall said of the new single in a stateman: “It feels like lots of people have had a really hard time over the last few years, dealing with various forms of personal stress and collective aggravation. This song is about checking in with each other and recognising when someone around you needs support. Although the song emerges with a heavy heart, it concludes with a chorus of elevated voices [singing] ‘I’ve got you’ and New Pagans has always been about more than just the music, it’s about building a community who look out for each other and take action when they need to.”
Commenting on the video, Miskimmin added:
When it comes to making the videos we usually have an improvised, see what happens on the day kind of attitude. However, knowing we were working with Dave / Macker Films put a bit more pressure on me to come up with something solid and not have Dave wandering about the Irish countryside with me while I draped fabric off rocks and trees! Dave is an absolute treat to work with, he just gets it. The video came to me fully formed, as luck would have it, over coffee one morning and I immediately had it story-boarded and sent to the rest of the band with a request to sharpen their acting skills.”
It’s a fairy tale set in our own New Pagans folk horror universe, pitting two cults against each other. The adults represent greed, decadence and violence. They will fight each other to the death for the trove of riches, but are usurped by the children watching from the sidelines. They are not so innocent as they’ve slipped a little poison in our drinks. Kind of like Hansel & Gretel pushing the witch into her own oven. Harsh, but we deserved it.
Zachary Tillman has announced his first new album under the moniker Pearly Gate Music in more than a decade. The follow-up to his 2010 self-titled debut is titled Mainly Gestalt Pornography and it’s out December 3 via Bella Union. Today’s announcement comes with the release of the lead single ‘The Moon’. Check out a video for it below, and scroll down for the LP’s cover artwork and tracklist.
Tillman (the brother of Josh Tillman, aka Father John Misty) started demoing the follow-up to Pearly Gate Music after its release and sent those demos to the late producer and multi-instrumentalist Richard Swift, who invited him to his studio to record the new album. According to a press release, however, on the eve of his first scheduled session with Swift, Tillman suffered “a total mental breakdown” and eventually gave up on being a frontman. Tillman explained: “I had no self-esteem, no ability to see myself succeeding in even a moderate pressure situation.”
Tillman decided he was ready to finish the album while his wife Sondra was pregnant with their firstborn child, Ocean, and went to Portland to record with his close friend and longtime collaborator Daniel Hindman, who also co-produced and engineered Mainly Gestalt Pornography.
“Across the span of 10 years, these (mostly) love songs were written after certain lovers, certain dread, certain visions, certain ecstasies,” Tillman said. “I WAS A WAND’RER got written for a shamanic girlfriend. FINALLY, THE SECRET for a stray kitten. LIKE FLOWERS was written for my wife and OCEAN’S SONG for my daughter. Then they all got transformed. Shapeshifted. Now they’re all about the same thing: Mainly Gestalt Pornography. I hope that they really do transcend their origins to speak of Love in its highest, most encompassing form. God is Love.”

Melbourne-based singer-songwriter Alex Lahey has shared the new single ‘Spike the Punch’, which coincides with the announcement of her signing to Liberation Records. The track is also accompanied by a video from director Matt Sav. Check it out below.
“‘Spike the Punch’ is a song about the fun that comes with self-sabotage and reckless abandon,” Lahey explained in a statement. “It’s big, it’s loud, it’s fun, it’s its own beast. There are some super sinister tones in there rubbing up against really bright anime style guitar harmonies (guitarmonies, anyone?..) and shouted choruses. Spike feels like a raucous bookend to navigating these cruelly unpredictable times. Touch wood.”
Of the track’s video, Lahey added: “Perhaps my favourite video I’ve ever been a part of. Matt and I spoke about how we wanted to capture a sense of freedom, fluidity and fun in this video along with hurtling forward momentum. Matt Pope, the brilliant performer who stars in the video, completely harnesses the direction and puts on a hell of a show. It gives me chills every time I press play.”
‘Spike the Punch’ follows ‘On My Way’, the theme song Lahey wrote and recorded for Sony Picture Animation’s The Mitchells vs The Machines.
Deserta, the project of former Saxon Shore/Midnight Faces member Matthew Doty, has announced his second album, Every Moment, Everything You Need. It’s out on February 25, 2022 via Felte. The new single ‘I’m So Tired’ is out now, following previous outing ‘Lost in the Weight’. Check it out and find the LP’s cover art and tracklist below.
“This song started out as a completely different song, a little more Echo & The Bunnymen sans the soaring vocals sounding,” Doty said of ‘I’m So Tired’ in a statement. “I didn’t feel like it was fitting in with the rest of the songs and I remember it taking quite a few tries to figure out what needed to change, to the point I would have scrapped it had the drums not already been tracked and sounding good. I also remember when it came together — my wife had just gone to work and usually by that time our son would be up and about. This day he happened to sleep in and I took advantage of it. I had to work fast so I simultaneously played a Moog bass line with my left hand and a Mellotron bell/flute combo with the right. When that second of the three chords played I knew that was the sound. I modified the melody from the first version which then became the chorus vocal melody and a lead guitar line, slapped an arpeggiated synth on there, mumbled some bullshit and there it is. A song.”
Deserta’s new album was mixed by David Fridmann and engineered by Chris Coady, with drums provided by James McAliser. It follows his 2020 debut, Black Aura My Sun.
