Chewing Gum - Press Release by E

In February 2014, a 19-year-old half Scottish, half Swedish Nina Nesbitt released her debut album ‘Peroxide’. It hit the mid weeks at No.1, charting at No.11 in the UK and No.1 in Scotland. Top 40 singles ‘Stay Out’ and ‘Way In The World’ were both playlisted by Radio 1 and helped take her total combined YouTube and VEVO views to over 30 million.

Nina has spent the last two years growing from a youthful singer-songwriter into a bona-fide pop star. Having just turned 21, she’s back with a collection of songs that she feels truly reflect who she is. Released on February 5th, the ‘Modern Love’ EP, “represents a new state of mind, a new person and a new life,” Nina says. “It's a big departure from the 17-year-old girl with an acoustic guitar but it feels like the most honest music I've written. I've been left alone to do whatever I want without anyone breathing down my neck saying, “that's not you,” or trying to water it down. I've spent the past two years living with friends in London and sonically documenting it. {Lead single} ‘Chewing Gum’ is an empowering track that I wrote about the transient types of relationships people have when they’re trying to figure out what they want and they’re not ready to fully commit.” This sentiment is portrayed brilliantly in the video for the track.

Motown Prince by E

Falling squarely within the band's uniquely fluid mix of indie/funk, The Lipstick Junkies' "Motown Prince" comes off enticingly smooth with fun beats and a driving melody that only lend their strength to quiet but insistent vocals; it was made for dancing around your room while getting ready and driving with streetlights flashing through the car windows.

Sirens by E

Wispy but strong, Fleurie's vocals are something to cherish; perhaps the only ones that could take such a generously sad song and twist it into something breathtakingly gorgeous.

Lingering keys, pointedly dramatic synths, and lyrics poetic enough to crack even the stoniest of listeners, the hypnotic intro to Fleurie's "Sirens" gives way to soft, fresh beats and a desperately swirling chorus that will leave you dizzy and begging for more.

Listen to the single below and follow the links for more from Fleurie.

Seth Bogart - New Album Press Release by E

Burger Records is excited to announce the official debut album from Seth Bogart, the former frontman for iconic DIY acts Hunx & His Punx and Gravy Train! The genre-twisting pop homage features guest appearances from Kathleen Hanna, Tavi Gevinson, Clementine Creevy (Cherry Glazerr), Chela and is co-written and produced by long-time friend Cole MGN.

  1. Hollywood Squares
  2. Eating Makeup (f. Kathleen Hanna)
  3. Forgotten Fantazy
  4. Smash The TV
  5. Lubed (featuring Jeremiah Nadya)
  6. Club With Me
  7. Supermarket Supermode (f. Chela)
  8. Flurt (f. Chela)
  9. Nina Hagen - Daaz (f. Clementine Creevy)
  10. Plastic!
  11. Barely 21 (f. Tavi Gevinson)
  12. Sunday Boy

Seth's reinvention began when he moved to Los Angeles in 2012 and started to focus on his visual art. With new surroundings and inspiration, a laptop, guitar, microphone, a $50 keyboard and help from Cole MGN, Seth's new sound was born.  Inspired by music he grew up loving - Radio Disney, Broadcast, 80s French Pop like Lio and Plastic Bertrand, Le Tigre, Nina Hagen and Kraftwerk - the new sound is a welcomed adventurous step in a completely new direction.

Previously, Seth shared the first single "Eating Makeup", featuring a vocal assist from the legendary Kathleen Hanna.  The song is based on an episode of "My Strange Addiction" in which the subject is literally addicted to eating makeup.  The tongue-in-cheek video directed by JJ Stratford (Telefantasy Studios) shows off Seth's friends eating makeup but also acts as a Pee Wee's Playhouse-meets-Liquid Television-inspired social commentary on the effects of the beauty industry. New track "Forgotten Fantazy" shows his more somber and contemplative side.
