FLIGHT FACILITIES – ALL YOUR LOVE (House/Pop – Australia)

01/06/2018 markus Leave a comment

Australian duo Flight Facilities’ first original song, “Crave You” featuring Giselle Rosselli, took the world by storm a few years back, and now, after numerous hit singles, a top-selling debut album and a few awards gathered along the way, they are going back to what it’s all really about: the songs.

So far this year, the Sydney duo have already released two breakaway singles, “Need You” (28 February) and “All Your Love” (30 May), and racked millions of streams on YouTube, SoundCloud and Spotify. Fans can expect more tunes in the coming months as founders Jimmy Lyell and Hugo Gruzman keep pushing at the edges of the band’s sound to write a new chapter in Flight Facilities’ story.

GISELLE – SILK (Lounge/Pop – Australia)

23/05/2012 admin 5 Comments

Best known for laying her sweet vocals on Flight Facilities‘ first international hit “Crave You” back in 2010, Giselle Rosselli is finally sharing with her (eager) fans her first official single “SIlk”. Beautifully stripped back and unadorned, this new song removes all unnecessary frills to stick to the essentials: a nice synth arpeggio, sober strings and Giselle’s unmistakable voice.

Surprising as it may be, the young lady is still unsigned so she has decided to release the song herself and she has also put out a call for remixes. So to all aspiring remixers out there: get down to work and give it a go!

ERIK OMEN – PAYPHONE (SynthPop/Chillwave – Australia)

30/12/2011 admin Leave a comment

Erik Omen (formerly Erik Omen In Atlantis) is the brainchild of Sydney natives Jeremy Hansen and Greg Mullins. Mining their vault of classic 60s and 70s slow jams, the two musicians seamlessly blend 1960s Californian surf culture, sprawling 1970s guitars and cosmic visions of the future.

For their sophomore release on Midnight Juggernauts imprint Siberia Records, Erik Omen have teamed up with Bridezilla’s Holiday Sidewinder who provides haunting vocals on the entrancingly smooth jam “Payphone”. The new limited-edition 12″ also includes the original track “Grade E” (previously cassette only) and blissed-out reworkings by Turkish Prison, Forces, Bell Towers, Cosmonaut and Tortoiseshell.

JÓNSI – GO (Instrumental/Lounge – Iceland)

16/02/2010 admin Leave a comment

While Sigur Rós might be on an indefinite hiatus, frontman Jónsi (Jón Þór Birgisson) is about to release his highly anticipated first solo album. Go contains nine songs amassed from the large pool of songs written by Jónsi during his many years with Sigur Rós. The album is sung in English and Icelandic, and was co-produced by Jónsi, his partner Alex Somers and Peter Katis (The National, Interpol). Let there be mentioned that classical composer Nico Muhly also collaborated with Jónsi on the project.

Jónsi - Boy Lilikoi

What was originally going to be a low-key, acoustic album sort of exploded somewhere along the creative process and turned into sheer aural fireworks. Jónsi’s vocals evolve in a rich sonic landscape where fluttering piccolos, expansive strings, brass, offbeat piano and percussion join in unison and leave you gasping for air.

Jónsi - Grow Till Tall

Go will be in stores April 5th (april 6th in north america). For more info, go to the official website or find Jónsi on MySpace.
