Angel Olsen Shares Video for New Song ‘Waving, Smiling’

Angel Olsen has shared new song called ‘Waving, Smiling’, taken from her upcoming project Whole New Mess. It comes with a visual directed by Ashley Connor, featuring her performance of the song in Asheville, North Carolina’s Masonic Temple. Check it out below.

“‘Waving, Smiling’ in my head is the last scene, a slow motion realization of love not lost but at peace somewhere within myself,” Olsen said in a statement. “It’s the bittersweet end of a chapter of my life—it is the final acceptance that despite coming to an end all of that time was not lost or wasted.”

Olsen previously shared the title track from Whole New Mess, which arrives August 28 via Jagjaguwar. The album is a companion piece to last year’s All Mirrors.

Carly Rae Jepsen Releases Video for New Song ‘Me and the Boys in the Band’

Carly Rae Jepsen has released a new song titled ‘Me and the Boys in the Band’. Featuring contributions from Jack Antonoff, Tavish Crowe, Jared Manerika, and Nik Pesut, the new track arrives with a music video directed by Jake Chamseddine. Check it out below.

“I miss travel and performing and my band mates who over the years have become my adopted brothers,” Jepsen said in a press release. “Here’s to all the shows we have played and have yet to play. The late-night dancers we turn into on the long bus drives and the tourists we become in the early mornings. Here’s to nostalgia city and keeping close the ones that know you best. Can’t wait for more. Till then a from home ‘pick me up’ song from all of us to you. Me and the boys and the band!”

Back in May, the singer said she had “already made an entire quarantine album”, but it’s unclear whether this song is a teaser for that project. That same month, she released Dedicated Side B, the companion album to last year’s Dedicated.

TSHA Presents ‘Sister’

TSHA, a London-based music producer, is becoming one of the most exciting names in the world of electronic music. Just today, TSHA released her latest euphonious single Sister. The track comes before the release of her upcoming EP Flowers, which is due to be released on the 16th of October via Ninja Tune, starring collaborations with Gabrielle Aplin and Malian griot music group Trio Da Kali.

Talking about the song TSHA stated “I wrote Sister during lockdown after finding out I had an older half sister from my estranged father that she is also estranged from,” explains TSHA. “We spoke on the phone and were texting each other in lockdown and we recently met for the first time. She’s lovely and we got on straight away, so I’m very happy to have a new member of my family as I’ve not had much of that in my life. The song is an expression of all of those feelings.”

Sister can now be streamed via Spotify.

Modernising Your Home in 2020

Modernising Your Home in 2020

Being the place that we spend nearly all of our time relaxing and unwinding after a long day, having a home that’s warm and inviting is crucial. Does your house feel like it’s in need of a bit of an update? Well, if you’ve got a little bit more time on your hands and want to switch things up a little, we’ve compiled a short list of tips and ideas that you might want to give a try. Read on to find out more!

Keeping things simple

Sometimes when your home feels outdated and uninviting, it’s simply because there’s too much stuff everywhere. Whether it’s litter, things that aren’t organised and stored away properly, or just ornaments and furniture built-up over time that you don’t need any more, it can sometimes feel overwhelming. Having a purge of all your clutter and going back to basics can be a good way of refreshing your home and prioritising what’s most important.

Tip – Getting inspiration – Struggling to find inspiration for a new layout in your home? Depending on the type of house/apartment setup that you have available, sometimes it’s a good idea to look at some up and coming developments, taking into consideration the interior design choices and current trends. If you’re living in a city apartment, for example, you might decide to look at some of the modern, forward-thinking properties offered by the likes of RWinvest throughout Liverpool and Manchester, which provide minimalist designs that prioritise space.

Let there be light

Sometimes letting in a bit of light into a room can make a whole world of difference. If you have certain rooms or spots in your home that seem a bit dark and dingy, then try to see if you can move any obstructions or pieces of furniture that are in the way, or perhaps even think about moving the layout of a room based around where the light comes in. This might not be possible in every setup, but it can make quite a bit of difference when done right!

In order to shift up the mood and atmosphere even further, you might want to consider including some different smart home gadgets and gizmos, such as smart LED lighting. Able to change into a wide variety of different colours, and controllable directly through your smartphone, these futuristic pieces of kit are as easy to install as screwing in a lightbulb, and can also help to automate your home by turning on and off automatically in the morning and evening.

Securing your home

Again, much like with smart LED bulbs, it might be worth looking into smart CCTV and camera/security systems, if keeping your home secured is a priority. They’re a lot simpler, and rather than having to have wires set up in your walls and throughout your home, hooked up to a computer system or recording onto disks, they simply can stick wherever you want and then be accessible over Wi-Fi through an app when needed. You can even access them remotely, allowing you to check in on your home when at work or even abroad.

Open Mike Eagle Announces New Abum, Shares New Song ‘Bucciarati’

Open Mike Eagle has announced a new album. It’s called Anime, Trauma And Divorce and is set to arrive October 16th via AutoReverse Records. In addition to the previously released ‘The Edge Of New Clothes’ and ‘I’m A JoeStar (Black Power Fantasy)’, the album will also include the newly unveiled single ‘Bucciarati’, which features Kari Faux. Check it out below, and scroll down for the album’s cover artwork and tracklist.

“Before the world went to shit I was already in the middle of a few personal crisis’,” the rapper said in a statement. “Shit had gone haywire personally and professionally and my therapist had to remind me that I have an outlet to process some of my shit in rap music. So I made a bunch of painful rap songs and Jacknife Lee was kind enough to help me make good music out of them. Maybe it can help other people too. It probably won’t but maybe.”

Anime, Trauma And Divorce will be the follow-up to 2017’s Brick Body Kids Still Day Dream. Last month, OME released the one-off single ‘Neighborhood Protection Spell (Lana Del Biden Nem)’.

Watch Taylor Swift’s Lyric Video for ‘folklore’ Bonus Track ‘the lakes’

When Taylor Swift announced her surprise new album folklore almost a month ago, she revealed that physical editions would contain a bonus cut titled ‘the lakes’. Earlier this month, that song started circulating as CDs and vinyls reached their destinations. Now, the cut has appeared on streaming services along with an official lyric video. Check it out below.

‘the lakes’ was co-written and co-produced by longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff, and unlike much of folklore, The National’s Aaron Dessner was not involved in the making of the song. It’s titled after the Lake District in the United Kingdom, a place popularized by Romantic poets such as William Wordsworth and Samuel Coleridge, and finds her yearning for a simpler time: “A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground with no one around to tweet it,” she sings, “While I bathe in cliffside pools with my calamitous love and insurmountable grief.”

“Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die/I don’t belong and my beloved neither do you,” she sings on the chorus.

folklore recently became the top-selling album of 2020, selling 846,000 equivalent album units in the first week since its release on July 24.

Tomberlin Announces New EP Co-Produced by Alex G, Shares Video for New Song ‘Wasted’

Tomberlin, the project of Sarah Beth Tomberlin, has announced a new EP titled Projections. The follow-up to her 2018 debut LP At Weddings was co-produced by Alex G and Sam Acchione and comes out October 16 via Saddle Creek. Accompanying the announcement, the artist has also shared the single ‘Wasted’ alongside a music video directed by Busy Philipps. Check it out below, and scroll for the EP’s cover artwork and tracklist. 

“Wasted’ was the most fun song to record,” Tomberlin said in a statement. “I brought the song with the guitar part and knew I wanted drums, but wasn’t sure what kind of beat I wanted. Alex played this drum beat for me and was all ‘kinda left field but maybe this would be cool.’ It took the song to a whole new level. Sad song or summer banger? You tell me.”

She added: “The video was made with the help of Busy Philipps (who directed) and Marc Silverstein (who shot it), who are more like family then friends at this point. I was quarantined with them and their girls in South Carolina and we came up with the idea and shot it in about 4 days on an iPhone.”

Speaking about the process of shooting the video, Phillips said: “It was such a collaborative and intimate experience – we’d been listening a lot to the EP in the house. The concept evolved from how striking SB looked in that dress, combined with the lushness of the greenery and watching our pre-teen daughter and her friend having this kind of magical few weeks of freedom and childhood in the middle of what has been such a heavy time, obviously.”

“Being able to just shoot it on our phones meant we could do it whenever the girls were up for it, or when the light was perfect or even right after the hurricane cleared,” she continued. “We would just run out and do it. I would hold up my little beats pill and play the music on repeat and we would just get stuff. Honestly, it was magic. I feel like it comes through when you watch the video.”

You can pre-order Projections here.

Mark Kozelek Denies Sexual Misconduct Allegations

Last week, an investigative piece was published on Pitchfork detailing sexual misconduct allegations made against Sun Kil Moon’s Mark Kozelek by three women. Now, Kozelek has issued a statement on his website denying all allegations and threatening legal action.

“It is important that I publicly and unconditionally deny that I engaged in the inappropriate and disturbing incidents falsely depicted in the media,” he writes. “While I support the important work of addressing legitimate claims of sexual misconduct, I reject the false allegations and innuendo in the recent press.”

“I have retained the legal counsel of Lavely & Singer to investigate and to pursue as necessary any claims against anyone participating to defame me in the media,” the statement concludes.

Yesterday (Auagust 17), it was announced that Kozelek’s upcoming European tour has been postponed in the wake of the accusations.
