OCTOBER 2, 2024—Hot to the touch, techno artist Amelie Lens has just announced a pop-up meet and greet at famed New York restaurant and bakery CHLOE ahead of her all-night-long DJ set at The Brooklyn Mirage this Friday 4th October 2024.

In a rare chance to hang out with one of the world’s biggest techno DJs, fans and customers will be greeted by Amelie Lens between the hours of 18:00 and 20:00 at boutique vegan eatery CHLOE, the culinary outlet of renowned chef Chloe Coscarelli located in Greenwich Village’s infamous nightclub district. When she’s not behind the counter serving the exclusive Amelie Lens x CHLOE pastry, a custom recipe inspired by her favourite flavours, the Belgian DJ will meet and connect with her community with a host of surprises in store.

Taking to social media to announce the meet and greet, Amelie Lens also satiated followers with the news that in-demand dancefloor ID ‘Falling For You’ will officially be released on 11th October 2024 via Sony Music.

Having garnered deep curiosity amongst ravers in Amelie Lens’ latest DJ sets, the formidable composition of ‘Falling For You’ sees Lens exploit her full diversity as a producer. Curating above and beyond her signature driving techno sound, lacing the soundscape with deep euphoria and notions of cinematic prowess through the pristine vocal delivery.

Since her artistic inception in 2016, techno heroine Amelie Lens rapidly established herself as one of the most prominent figures in contemporary electronic music thanks to her relentless desire for musical innovation. Be it through her distinguished catalogue of releases, or Amelie Lens’ creative endeavours in the form of her now monthly Amelie Lens Radio Show and record labels Lenske and EXHALE Records. The latter of which expanding into an internationally toured party series which crowned her the first female DJ to run her own Ibiza club residency. The name Amelie Lens carries immense respect on line-ups of global gatherings such as Awakenings, Time Warp, Brunch Electronik and Tomorrowland, but before headliner, DJ, or producer, Amelie Lens is a raver and this innate sensibility for human connection on the dancefloor that sees her remain on the frontline of techno.

AHEAD OF FORTHCOMING FIFTH STUDIO ALBUM INHALE / EXHALE
ARRIVING OCTOBER 11 VIA ROSE AVENUE / REPRISE RECORDS

LISTEN TO “PRESSURE” HERE & PRE-ORDER INHALE / EXHALE HERE

FOLLOWING RECENT SINGLES, “MUSIC IS BETTER,” “LATELY” & “BREAK MY LOVE”

September 27, 2024 (Los Angeles, CA) —  Today, Grammy-winning live electronic trio RÜFÜS DU SOL released “Pressure,” the fourth single off their highly-anticipated forthcoming fifth studio album Inhale / Exhale, out October 11 via Rose Avenue/Reprise Records. Listen to “Pressure” HERE and pre-order Inhale / Exhale HERE.

“Pressure” is an instant new anthem amidst the RÜFÜS discography, alluding to the maturation of the band heard on the upcoming full-length. Indulging in the immersive nature of Inhale / Exhale, “Pressure” is a standout with its complex synthwork and gripping lyricism. Surrounded by expansive melodies and sultry rhythms, Tyrone Lindqvist swirls a powerful tale of perseverance and defiance as he sings, “You’ll never break me down, cause I can take the pressure”. 

“Pressure” joins Inhale / Exhale’s earlier singles “Music is Better,” “Lately,” and “Break My Love,” the latter of which is featured on the EA SPORTS FC™ 25 official soundtrack.

Out October 11, Inhale / Exhale will mark a new creative groove for the band, an era that is defined by enjoying the process and creating from the now while binding organic and electronic. The album encompasses the themes that have endeared fans for over a decade – romance, heartbreak, euphoria, despair – through a medley of sprawling, mature soundscapes.

In the three years since Surrender was released, RÜFÜS DU SOL won a Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic Recording in 2022, were twice-nominated the following year for Best Dance/Electronic Album and earned their fifth ARIA award in Australia. The band circled the globe appearing at festivals across Europe and South America, and brought Surrender to the stages of iconic North American venues like New York’s Forest Hills Stadium, Denver’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl. The band also launched their boutique Sundream Festival, which held its second edition in San José del Cabo in 2023, and was part of the debut of the new Quasar Stage at Coachella in 2024. Inhale / Exhale will serve as the follow-up to the group’s 2021 album Surrender, which featured the Grammy-winning lead single “Alive”.

“Pressure” arrives ahead of RÜFÜS DU SOL’s standalone live show this year, headlining Portola Festival in San Francisco on September 28. RÜFÜS DU SOL will return to festival stages next year as the only electronic headliner on all three South American editions of Lollapalooza 2025.

Upcoming Australian & European Fall Tour

Buy/Stream: Ben Böhmer – Bloom
https://benbohmer.lnk.to/bloomPR

SEPTEMBER 27, 2024—Today, award-winning artist and producer Ben Böhmer shares his highly anticipated third studio album, Bloom. The 11-track LP, which brings his innate skill and passion for songwriting and composing to the foreground, is out now via Ninja Tune. 

Ben has delivered Bloom as a confident reassertion of his improvisational origins as a songwriter. Despite the success of over 1 billion streams, one of the most-viewed live electronic sets on YouTube (34M+ views), and performing over 200 times in 2022, Ben’s talent as a musician has been compartmentalized, in a way, until now. Having developed his piano-playing talent from a young age, Ben can craft deeply emotive music equipped with just a piano, a microphone, and his computer. By opening himself up, Ben has earned the trust of and received stellar performances from collaborators such as indie pop icon Lykke Li, synth-pop duo Oh Wonder, and more. The songs on Bloom reach far outside the pre-fabricated boxes he’s been put into as an artist. 

While Ben’s explorations of new genres and tempos have garnered the support of indie tastemakers like Pitchfork, Line of Best Fit, and XLR8R, a steadfast thread of his signature melancholy electronica runs through the entire tracklist. From the very first piano notes of the introductory track “Martin,” Ben’s melodies are the stars of the show, whether in orbit with vocals  by The Blaze’s Enfant Sauvage on “Evermore” or rooted by grounding dancefloor rhythms on “Rust.” 

“The Sun,” the project’s final single (watch the Official Lyric Video here), perfectly encapsulates the feeling of rebirth throughout Bloom. Featuring alt/dance-pop duo Oh Wonder’s Josephine Vander West, Ben toes the line between his established sound and his sophisticated instincts as a composer. Empowering, heartfelt lyrics compliment the instrumental with messages of overcoming hardship and emerging into power and enlightenment.

Bloom Tracklist
1. Martin
2. Hiding (feat Lykke Li)
3. Best Life (feat JOHNAH)
4. Memory Cassettes
5. Beautiful (feat Malou)
6. Faithless (feat Erin LeCount) 
7. Rust
8. Evermore (feat Enfant Sauvage)
9. Rain (feat Max Milner)
10. The Sun (feat Oh Wonder)
11. Blossoms

Ben is fresh off several major performances, including festivals such as Sonar by Night and a closing set at Lollapalooza, and served as direct support for ODESZA’s stadium tour at The Gorge and Madison Square Garden & more. He’ll round out his North American tour with a stop at Portola before heading to Australia, where he’ll perform in music halls across Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne. Then, he’ll head back to Europe for a string of fall shows, including a stop at the Great Hall of Alexandra Palace.

Ben’s music and live performances have earned him widespread acclaim from fans and tastemakers alike. In 2023, he completed the biggest-ever North American live touring run while reaching 4 million monthly Spotify listeners and accumulating over 1.3M social followers across all platforms. His Cercle set has surpassed 34 million views and is now one of the top 10 most viewed electronic music sets of all time on YouTube. He’s shared festival stage bills with the likes of Caribou, Four Tet, Bicep, Jamie xx, and Amelie Lens, and in 2022, launched Portraet, his four-night residency at the open-air Ibiza club Cova Santa, enlisting Barry Can’t Swim, HAAi, Sofia Kourtesis and more to play alongside him.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2024—Today, following the release of his Rouge ou Noir EP, Parisian house music maestro and Apollonia champion Dan Ghenacia shares a brand new music video for his EP’s title track directed by Australian talent Lucy Dyson.

Described by Billboard as “a spacey, synthy, sexy and simply funky swirl,” Dan Ghenacia’s “Rouge ou Noir” enters a new dimension with this brand new, animated video, which dives into the playful soundscape. The animated video draws inspiration from the circular imagery of the EP’s artwork, weaving the main protagonist in and out of hypnotic scenes as he pursues a mysterious love interest from casino roulette tables to the dancefloor and ending in an eventual happily-ever-after.

“It was important to me that the collage style animation had a lot of texture,” said director Lucy Dyson, who has previously worked with artists like Paul McCartney and Beyonce. “Frames were printed out and then re-shot to give a particular texture I couldn’t get digitally, and we mixed up the mediums used by also incorporating rotoscoped video footage to really push the surreal dream-trip experience. Taking the roulette wheel as my main visual cue, I created a surreal trip through a casino in a playful cat-and-mouse pursuit of love! This idea lends itself nicely to a tropical Ibiza-tinged psychedelic James Bond-esque licensed-to-love narrative.”

Ghenacia’s knowledge of house music, which he’s accumulated over the last 25-plus years DJing, hosting essential parties, and running vital labels, is crystal clear on his fantastic new Rouge ou Noir EP. “Everything unfolded at a dizzying pace,” says Dan Ghenacia on creating the new EP. “Five days in a dream studio in Los Angeles led to Rouge ou Noir, a surreal and psychedelic experience with funky vibes. StrataSonic, this young label, is showing boundless creativity with its team to maximize the release’s impact.”
