PETER BRODERICK ANNOUNCES NEW EP + SINGLE

Bella Union are delighted to announce the return of PETER BRODERICK who will release a new EP entitled (Colours Of The Night) Satellite to be released October 14th.

(Colours Of The Night) Satellite is the American’s first song-based release in two years, during which the singer-songwriter-composer-multi-instrumentalist and serial collaborator was struck down by a debilitating illness that forced him to re-evaluate his life. It meant a scaled-back workload and moving from his Berlin home back to his home state of Oregon. Thankfully, after a period of rehabilitation, he’s now back on track.

DIGITALIFE ALBUM STREAM ON YOUTUBE

Victor commented on the album by saying, “Nemesis is our debut album that blends trance, EDM, and metalcore together into one sound. It was created two years ago with a low budget and in a couple of weeks, but the songs has grown on us and we love to play them live. The new single, “False Utopia,” features our current signature sound and style of writing of the band that is still rooted in the electronica metalcore roots of the band.” The band plans to enter the studio later this month to record a brand new full length to be released in early 2015.

METRONOMY UNVEIL NEW VIDEO FOR “MONTH OF SUNDAYS”

Metronomy’s brand new video for their single “Month of Sundays.” PRESS HERE to watch the video. The single is from the band’s fourth studio album, LOVE LETTERS, available now via Elektra Records.

The video, shot by Callum Cooper and produced by Julia Reed and John Hassay, drew inspiration from the Spomeniks – second world war memorials likened to alien art which can be found scattered across the former Yugoslavia and on Angus McBean’s iconic pictures of the Beatles that featured on the red and blue album covers. It’s a roller coaster ride, using intricate camera tricks which make you wonder how it was made.
