A STATEMENT FROM FOO FIGHTERS
It is with profound sadness and heartfelt concern for everyone in Paris that we have been forced to announce the cancellation of the rest of our tour. In light of this senseless violence, the closing of borders, and international mourning, we can’t continue right now. There is no other way to say it. This is crazy and it sucks. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who was hurt or who lost a loved one.

TREMEDIA: APOLOGIES X PARIS FRANCE
The wanton violence that occured in the city of Paris, France were tragic and horrific events. The acts of violence levied against innocents is never acceptable. Servicing the song, “Lethal Warning Shot,” by our client Paris was in no way an act to belittle or make light of what has happened.

We are deeply sympathetic to the tragic loss of human life. – TreMedia

ALEX SMOKE NEW SINGLE
Following his hallucinogenic dancefloor EPs ‘Dust’ and ‘Green Man’ for R&S, Alex Smoke returns with his latest opus ‘Love Over Will,’ a suite of perfectly crafted electronica, brimming with layers and texture that mixes depth, euphoria and social commentary in equal measure. As with his 2011 release under the Wraetlic guise, Love Over Will sees Menzies further exploring the melding of his voice with intricate electronics and discordant melody.
“The human voice is the ultimate transducer of emotion” he explains. “I feel it, I sing it, the listener hears it, the listener feels it. Even the slightest vocal can carry a heavy emotional current. Adding words is creating another layer of meaning again, sometimes altering, sometimes reinforcing the intrinsic feeling of the music.”
