March 22, 2019 Nico Cartosio ‘Melting’ Hearts with New Music Video

Nico Cartosio ‘Melting’ Hearts with New Music Video

One year onto the scene and Nico Cartosio just seems to explode with mastery in every aspect of his art, from music to the visuals. For his highly anticipated album expected to drop sometime in 2019, Cartosio has independently released the new single and music video ‘Melting’ on 20 March. The album itself was recorded at the one and only Abby Road Studios in London and if that doesn’t give you goosebumps, then you fail as a music lover. 
 
The man has been known to draw inspiration from people when it comes to composing. For him, each person has their own personal soundtrack. A sentiment he’s addressed by saying, “This piece is uplifting and enables the spirit to soar. If you’re listening to it while in a relationship, it can encourage feelings of love”.
 
This particular piece of music, as well as the video, was inspired by a chance encounter he had with a woman in Rome. The video features the man himself sat at a piano playing for the quiet night time city of Rome as he remembers the sambuca-spiked coffee drinking woman he met that day and went to the Pantheon with. 
 

Visually, as per all Nico Cartosio videos, it is a stunning work of angle changes. With emphasis put in lighting as it changes from a warm hue to cold beams. Light beams which rouse a sleeping brunette from her slumber and lures her to find him as if he’s playing just for her. And he is. The two melt together in shared memory of the brief intimacy experienced that day in Rome.

March 12, 2019 The LaFontaines announce the release of their new album ‘Junior’

The LaFontaines announce the release of their new album ‘Junior’

Fresh from supporting Mike Shinoda at The Roundhouse, The LaFontaines have announced the release of their new album, ‘Junior’, which will be out on June 14th via So Recordings. The band have also released the brand new single ‘All In’, accompanied by a new video, which is the first taste of what’s to come.

“’All In’ goes directly at the eternal conflict of the unsettled mind. Everything’s a contradiction. ‘Either coming up or going under/ I’ve wasted days wishing I was younger’,” frontman Kerr Okan says.

“All In’ is brooding, a darker tone reflects the contemporary anxieties of connecting in an age of digital facades and false truths. The sound is a progression of the band’s voice that is a sign of things to come on their upcoming record.”

As well as opening for the aforementioned Mike Shinoda, The LaFontaines will this week be heading out on a full UK tour supporting Deaf Havana. The band then have a UK headline tour in June to support the release of the new album. Tickets for the headline tour will go on sale this Friday 15th at 10am and will be available via the LaFontaine’s website – thelafontaines.co.uk

Proving themselves one of the most exciting bands to emerge from Scotland in recent years, The LaFontaines deliver a unique sound that fuses the guitar swagger of Kasabian, the edgy hip-hop delivery of The Streets and the electronic-pop undertones of Twenty One Pilots to create a style that pushes the boundaries of rock.

Junior is the band’s third album and follows 2017’s Common Problem and their 2015 debut Class, which saw them hit #1 in the Indie Breakers Chart and make the Top 10 in the Scottish chart.

Renowned for their electrifying live shows, the band have previously been on tour with Anderson Paak, Twin Atlantic and All Time Low and last year were main support to Don Broco across the UK and Europe.

Also with a number of major festivals under their belt including Reading & Leeds, Download, The Great Escape, 2000 Trees, T in the Park, Belladrum, NH7, Secret Garden Party, TRNSMT & Reeperbahn, 2019 is set to be another great year for the band with more exciting announcements to come.

Creamfields Brings Calvin Harris Back Out to Play

Calvin Harris has been taking a long break from the festival circuit, but the hiatus ends here with the announcement of his upcoming appearance at Creamfields 2019. His name shone amongst Fatboy Slim, FISHER, Jauz and many more names gracing the second phase of Creamfield’s lineup. Harris will perform as an exclusive act, sharing this status with Swedish House Mafia, deadmau5 and Tiësto, making Creamfields the only UK festival where one can see these artists for the year 2019.

In addition, the festival will host over 300 performances over a vast number of stages, making Creamfields goers really spoiled for choice.
