SKOPE NEWS FOR APRIL 25, 2016

MARIA USBECK NEW SINGLE

Though the songs were composed electronically, Amparo called for an acoustic treatment, so Usbeck spent a winter in the studio recording the arrangements live with producer Caroline Polachek of Chairlift who has also produced Beyoncé and engineer Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson. Fleshed out in full sonic color on the marimba, xylophone, quena flute, piano, and harp, the album stretched into something hi-fi and expressive, meditative but not meandering.

The album is garnering mass critical acclaim in Australia including Rolling Stone who bestows a 4-star review hailing, “From the Jacksons to TLC to Destiny’s Child, her touchstones are clear but can’t hope to detract from her particular brand of class, both as a turbo-lunged singer and a writer on a supremely confident roll.” The Sydney Morning Herald cites “Strong contemporary R&B…a generation or two on from the ’60s soul and old-school rhythm and blues of the Rackettes.” The Sunday Mail boasts “Smouldering R&B, infectious and edgy pop, and exactly the sound of now you have come to expect from Beyonce, Rihanna and Sia.” And the Herald Sun states “Clairy Browne does a bang-up job on her solo debut via R&B bangers, slinky pop, and strutting, soulful disco all under one umbrella.”

CUMQUAT NEW SINGLE

Philadelphia-based electronic artist Cumquat has released a brand new track in The Bering Strait. Cumquat has teamed up with internationally recognized radio station XPN to unleash the track to the listening audiences.

“[Philly] electronic artist Kevin Sul’s new project Cumquat alternates between atmospheric, melodic synthesizer tapestries and hard-hitting, abrasive electronic grit. His latest, “The Bering Strait,” splits the difference between the delicate “Consciousness is my Trigger” and the skittery “Cucumber” for a cut that’s poppy and pretty but with a fierce rhythm driving it forward.” – John Vettese, XPN

NEW VIDEO BY WRITER

Here is a new video from Brooklyn’s avant-garde band of brothers WRITER. “Neighborly” is a single on their recent Principle Web LP on Small Plates Records. Directed by Paul Remund, the video features disturbed and simplistic black and white images that almost seem to fight back to the scuzzed-out single.

POLLYN RELEASE FEMME FATALE ELECTRO BALLAD “TOO LATE TO CHANGE THE PAST”

“Too Late To Change The Past” is Pollyn’s moving ethereal ballad.
Lead singer Genevieve Artadi explains how she wanted”…the lyrics and melody to be femme fatale-like, but like the guilt and fear of a woman who goes around leaving a trail of hurt behind her. She always plays it cool but is struggling with causing as much trouble as she does.” For Pollyn’s beat maker and producer Adam Jay Weissman, the song is “the Pollyn song we’ve been trying to make since we started recording music.”

HORSE THIEF NEW SINGLE

Two years on from their well-received debut album Fear In Bliss, Horse Thief return with a new single entitled “Drowsy”, released as part of this year’s Record Store Day celebrations. Of the track, which is about addiction, Horse Thief singer and songwriter Cameron Neal had this to say:

“When writing ‘Drowsy’ I tried to tell the other side of the story in regard to addiction. Watching and seeing someone give up and turn away from everything they love. It’s a serious and very real thing everywhere in the world and some people are still afraid to speak on it. Without talking about it, nothing will ever change and no one will ever feel comfortable to admit and ask for help. This song is a song for both sides and can be far more about drugs depending on where you are in your life, a song to give reality to both sides of the story.”

“DARK DANCE”

Today, Little Scream debuts “Dark Dance,” the latest track from her forthcoming second album, Cult Following, which will be in stores on May 6th. Alongside the previously released “Love as a Weapon,” “Dark Dance” marks one of the album’s most overtly pop moments: an ’80s-influenced dance song vaguely inspired by Leonard Cohen’s “I Can’t Forget” and Margaret Atwood.

LERICHE NEW VIDEO

“It’s a song of self-sacrifice. On first listen the song has a dark undertone but I think it can take listeners different places. At the heart of the song is the significance of putting yourself out on a limb for the greater good.”

THE SLOVAKS “MEDITATE”

Jeffery Drag Records is going international; They’re stepping across the pond and bringing back a like-minded band with them: The Slovaks.

The Manchester band may have emerged in 2013, but their roots run deep. It all began in 2006, when frontman Adam Saylaby met Luke Barton while at university. They became friends when Saylaby spotted Barton’s Mars Volta shirt. With this, they bonded in the way that most music fans bond: over heavy drinks and heavier records. Soon after, they began living together, juggling day jobs and writing tunes for side bands that were never fully realized. Luke Allen entered the picture in 2008 after he made a cheeky comment to Saylaby in the toilets of some club. Saylaby retorted, and impressed with his comeback, Allen soon joined the gang.

GARBAGE RELEASE NEW SINGLE “EMPTY”

Garbage (Shirley Manson, Steve Marker, Duke Erikson and Butch Vig) have unveiled their new single “Empty” from their forthcoming album Strange Little Birds, due out on June 10th on the band’s own label STUNVOLUME.

Lars Gotrich of NPR Music said, “Luke Bell has a classic, brassy country voice that conjures images of both dimples and tears in a beer. His songs exist somewhere in the same arena, because just as easy as it to be charmed by Bell’s clever turns of phrase, he’ll hit you upside the head.”

WOODPIGEON PREMIERES VIDEO FOR “WHOLE BODY SHAKES”

“Whole Body Shakes” was filmed in the mountains of Iceland and a warehouse office space in Vancouver. The trio of dancers are co-founders of Vancouver’s Konichiwaack crew, demonstrating the Waacking dance style developed in the 1970s and 1980s on the West Coast, predominantly in California’s gay cultures. The influence of Waacking is one felt in other popular dance forms – most notably Voguing – yet it remains a distinct scene unto itself. Whereas Voguing is largely a battle between opponents, Waacking is all about moving together. The video was directed by Greg Gillespie, and all styling – including Woodpigeon’s Mark Andrew Hamilton – was by the dancers themselves.

GREAVER ALBUM PREVIEW

Post-hardcore quintet Greaver will release their debut full-length The Faun on April 29th via Cardigan Records, but the band has teamed up with Revolver Magazine to stream it early.

JESSICA LEA MAYFIELD BEGINS MIDWEST SUMMER TOUR ON JUNE 15TH

Jessica Lea Mayfield broke out of her bluegrass comfort zone with her 2014 record Make My Head Sing… Her first release for ATO Records, it embraced distorted guitar tones, crashing drums, and heavy riffs that would more likely evoke a comparison to her idols of the early 90’s than any modern day artist.

“I’m writing a lot of new material for the next record and excited to share it on this tour setting before I get back into the studio,” Mayfield said.

TINSLEY ELLIS ANNOUNCES RELEASE OF NEW STUDIO ALBUM

Tinsley Ellis has travelled a million miles, and through that journey he has become a man with clarity about where he stands today and his future destination. As a proud Georgia-based artist, with his new album Red Clay Soul he celebrates a legacy built on four decades of performing, recording and song writing. Travelers headed to Florida or other destinations in the Southeastern U.S. encounter red clay embankments as they hit the state of Georgia, and Ellis has chosen to title this new collection Red Clay Soul to celebrate the music of the area. He offers, “Georgia is where the Blues has got Soul. From the gospel inspired Ray Charles, to the R&B of James Brown and Otis Redding, to the Rock and Roll of Little Richard, to the Blues Rock of The Allman Brothers Band, all these acts have one thing in common. They all have the sound of Georgia and down here we call that sound red clay soul.”
