Paper Fairy unveils frightening new video for “Haunted” | New LP out 10/26

The video premiered via GroundSounds where its director Ivana Dizdar shared, “I never thought I’d shoot a fetish video in a Brooklyn dental office. The idea came to me in a dream. A girl was masturbating in a dental chair: her sweaty ass against the leather seat, the clinical light in her face, a mouth full of blood. The concept aligned with Paper Fairy’s Haunted: the song’s at once creepy and dreamy vibe, and those off-putting moments that remind us the line between disturbing and seductive can be thin as floss. We shot the video over a weekend in May. We had the office to ourselves: no dentists or patients—just us and an endless supply of latex gloves, the requisite dental equipment, artificial teeth, that sexy leather chair, and a tube of cherry-flavored gore. Some of these things were more or less anthropomorphic; all were uncanny. The objects weren’t only our subjects but also, it turned out, our collaborators: they inspired our vision, they guided the performance and camera work, they made us cringe, and they made us laugh. If I had one wish, the music video would appear on loop as the waiting room TV content in dental offices across America.”

UK Artist to Watch Dylan Cartlidge Shares New Track “Wishing Well”

Following the release of his impressive debut EP ‘Scratch, Sniff’, ‘Wishing Well’ once again showcases Dylan’s versatility as a genre-spanning singer/rapper/ multi-instrumentalist. It’s a stylistic mix that’s reflected in his unique image: timelessly cool afro; Americana-inspired Hawaiian shirts and Elvis-style cuban collars. Reminiscent of Beck and Outkast but with a distinctly British slant akin to Jamie T or Gorillaz, Dylan changes from rapping to singing throughout, showcasing his versatility as a performer.

Chuck Wicks’ ‘Better Than Flowers’ Out Tomorrow; See the Video Today on CMT

Eighteen months ago, singer, songwriter and syndicated radio personality Chuck Wicks was looking at a very different reality than the one that exists today. Following a nearly-fatal car crash that left Wicks with a broken neck, he could barely muster the strength to raise his head. His dedication, rehabilitation, perseverance and a new outlook on life helped the former athlete return not only with the strength to compete as one of only 11 contenders in NBC’s “IRONMAN: Quest For Kona,” yet it also led to a ‘why wait?’ mentality for the recording artist. With that lust for life fully embraced, Wicks returns with his first new music in nearly two years, “Better Than Flowers,” released everywhere tomorrow (Oct. 12).
