Lana Del Rey Details New Album ‘Blue Banisters’, Releases New Song ‘Arcadia’

Lana Del Rey has today revealed the details of her next studio album, Blue Banisters, which is set to arrive on October 22. She’s also shared a new single from the record: ‘Arcadia’ was written by Del Rey and produced with Drew Erickson. Check out its self-directed music video below.

On Instagram, Del Rey shared the following statement about the album and the new single:

I guess you could say this album is about what it was like, what happened, and what it’s like now.

If you’re interested go back and listen to the first three songs I put out earlier. They chronicle the beginning. This song hits somewhere in the middle and by the time the record drops you will hear where we’re at today.

As much as the on going criticism has been trying, it at least has pushed me to explore my own family tree, to dig deep, and to continue to exhibit the fact that God only cares about how I move through the world.

And for all of the skepticism about feigning fragility and unreasonable explanations of not showing general accountability- I must say I’ve enjoyed moving through the world beautifully- as a woman with grace and dignity.

Thank you to my friends over the last 18 years who have been an example of attraction not promotion. I’ve never felt the need to promote myself or tell my story, but if you’re interested this album does tell it- and does pretty much nothing more.

Back in May, Del Rey released three songs, ‘Blue Banisters’, ‘Wildflower Wildfire’, and ‘Text Book’, all of which appear on Blue Banisters along with ‘Arcadia’. The singer-songwriter originally announced the follow-up to 2020’s Chemtrails Over the Country Club in April, suggesting it would be released on July 4.

The Trends That Are Changing How We Gamble Online

More of us are playing bingo online than ever before, with a staggering array of platforms offering thousands of different games and content options for every casino game imaginable.

The bingo industry has famously been keen to adopt new trends and technologies early on, as evidenced by its rapid embrace of crypto gaming and the use of VR in live games. But what are the trends that are currently driving forward change in the online gambling sector? Read on to find out.

Hybrid Games are Ascendant 

Within online gambling, the lines between different genres of games are increasingly blurred. Nowhere is this more evident than with the game of Slingo, which has risen through the ranks to become one of the most popular online casino games ever. As you can see at https://bingo.paddypower.com/p/slingo-games, Slingo is a cross between conventional online 75-ball bingo and slot games.

Players spin the online slot reels in the hopes that the reels will throw up the numbers they have on their bingo cards, allowing people to win in new ways while still enjoying classic online casino games. Hybrid genres such as Slingo look set to take over the world of online gambling.

There are various appealing factors for gamers: firstly, the game itself is ridiculously simple and doesn’t feature lots of complex and elaborate rules. Secondly, the slots element of the game means that it’s remarkably speedy and doesn’t demand hours of your time (unless you want to do a marathon play session). Thirdly, easy access to the online landscape via different devices such as PC desktops and smartphones means that people can play conveniently whenever it suits them. The success of Slingo implies there’ll be other hybrid innovations in the years to come.

Giving You Options

One of the most important trends in online bingo right now is the broad inclusion of new payment/deposit methods. As highlighted on https://www.linnworks.com/blog/online-payment-methods, there’s a broad range of payment options available. A lot of credible bingo sites support the standard Mastercard transactions, but also encourage newer methods such as eWallet transactions and cryptocurrencies, based on the increasing use of these methods across other industries. Here, many of the top bingo platforms have led the way, offering all members greater control of their gaming habits and allowing them to customise their access like never before.

Nowadays, the emphasis is all on putting players in the driver’s seat and ensuring that they are empowered with the tools they need to play with as much convenience and control as possible. Inevitably, further adaptation to new forms of online currency will be increasingly commonplace in the months and years to come.

Deals Without the Catch 

Finally, online bingo sites are proliferating and platforms are working harder to become more competitive. Through the inclusion of ludicrous welcome bonuses and offers, new customers are being drawn in by the sheer array of additional features provided just for clicking on from the initial landing page.

It’s no secret that online gambling is one of the most popular leisure and entertainment activities in the world right now. The online gambling market was worth a staggering $64 billion worldwide in 2020, according to https://www.prnewswire.com/global-online-gambling-market, with there being every indication that it will continue growing exponentially across the coming decade.

To us, these are the major trends driving change within the multi-billion-dollar gambling industry. In time, they are likely to completely dominate the sector, transforming how we play bingo online forever.

Charlotte Cornfield Shares Video for New Song ‘Partner in Crime’

Charlotte Cornfield has shared a new song, ‘Partner in Crime’, alongside a Wes Anderson-inspired music video. The track is taken from the Toronto songwriter’s upcoming album, Highs in the Minuses. Check out the clip, directed by Charlotte’s brother Joe, below.

“In the Partner in Crime music video, Charlotte is reunited with an old friend, and the pair embark on a mission to get the old band back together,” Joe Cornfield explained in a statement. “In an homage to Bottle Rocket, Charlotte and her band don yellow jumpsuits and take off in a VW bus to execute a daring musical ‘heist.’”

Charlotte added: “My brother and I grew up watching Wes Anderson movies. They were a huge part of our childhood and adolescence, and I feel like they’ve seeped into our DNA at this point — the colours, the outfits, the humour. When I sent Joe this song and he came back with this idea, it was a no-brainer that we’d do it. He made it all happen: the van, the jumpsuits, the whole thing. Tara Kannangara, Steven Foster and Sam Gleason came with us on the journey and fully embraced the concept.”

Highs in the Minuses is due out October 29 via Polyvinyl/Double Double Whammy. It includes the previously released single ‘Headlines’.

Circuit des Yeux Shares Video for New Song ‘Sculpting the Exodus’

Circuit des Yeux has shared the second single from her upcoming LP, -io. ‘Sculpting the Exodus’ follows lead offering ‘Dogma’, which landed on our Best New Songs list. It arrives today alongside a music video shot in Chicago during the same session that yielded the album’s cover image, for which Haley Fohr trained with stunt coordinator Talin Chat (The Mandalorian) to perform a series of 5-7’ free-falls on camera. Watch and listen below.

Fohr had this to say about ‘Sculpting the Exodus’ in a statement:

What is Sculpting the Exodus?
It is devotion. It is the well.
It is my grandmother going into hospice, writhing in pain.
It is reality exploding on an island made of sand. It is depression and the isolation of deep grief.
I was trapped in a choir of myself with nothing to grab onto but echoes of past selves.
It obliterated my heart until the only working parts of me were the appendages furthest from my mind.
A few notes here
A couple notes there…
The fingers were working when nothing else could. And I was fantasizing of leaving like I always do…

-io, Circuit des Yeux’s debut for Matador, is due out October 22.

Francis of Delirium Share Video for New Song ‘Come Out and Play’

Francis of Delirium are back with a new song, ‘Come Out and Play’, which arrives alongside a self-animated video. The track was mixed by Jolyon Thomas (Royal Blood, Slaves) and mastered by Joe Lambert (Sharon Van Etten, Deerhunter). Check it out below. 

““I kept thinking about clowns when making this song, I watched Felini’s 8 ½ and the closing scene where a procession of clowns play in a band stuck with me,” Jana Bahrich explained in a statement. “I had them in my mind for months, thinking about the way they hid behind painted faces, keeping so much hidden from the audience, and also just how sad they seemed. I wanted this song to feel dark and to have an eeriness that would make sense in the background of some weird art movie about funhouses and carnivals.”

‘Come Out and Play’ follows the release of Francis of Delirium’s second EP, Wading. The band are set to embark on a UK headline tour this October. Find the full list of dates below.

Holly Humberstone Shares Video for New Song ‘Scarlett’

Holly Humberstone has shared a new single, ‘Scarlett’, the latest offering from the singer-songwriter’s upcoming EP The Walls Are Way Too Thin. The song arrives with an accompanying video directed by Raja Virdi, which you can check out below.

Humberstone said of ‘Scarlett’ in a statement:

This track is my absolute favourite. It’s a fuck you to the guy that was going out with my closest friend Scarlett and it was written as they were breaking up. The relationship was totally one sided and lasted for years. Scarlett was all in and had pretty much planned their future and it was pretty clear to me that he was stringing her along, until he broke up with her in a really insensitive and heartless way. I was her closest confidant and so I knew everything she was feeling, and I’d see how passive he was with her at parties first hand. She vented to me for probably about a year and so I went through all the stages of a break up with her and watched as she slowly realised her worth and that he wasn’t worth her tears anymore. I wanted to write this one from her point of view. It’s a pretty positive song as it’s about her finally letting go, realising his many faults and taking back her life.

Of the track’s video, Humberstone added:

Sonically and lyrically, Scarlett breaks away from the rest of the EP and in so many ways it feels like such a release. It was really important to me that the music video felt really empowering and a reminder that you can shake off anything rubbish going on in your life and be in control of your own destiny. Obviously the song is about Scarlett so she had to be in the video – especially after being named an ‘emotional grim reaper’ lol. The two of us break into an airport hanger, steal and spray paint an arctic truck, then I perform on the back of it as Scar drives it down the runway. It was honestly the most fun.

‘Scarlett’ follows previous singles ‘Please Don’t Leave Just Yet’, ‘Haunted House’, and ‘The Walls Are Way Too Thin’.  Humberstone’s new EP is out November 5 via Polydor/Darkroom/Interscope.
