Anton Newcombe to Release Imaginary French Film Soundtrack This Spring

Playing homage to the great European film directors of the late 50’s and 60’s (such as François Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard), Anton Newcombe, on behalf of the Brian Jonestown Massacre for an imaginary French film, will be releasing the amazing soundtrack Musique de film imaginé on Monday April 27.

Guests featured on the  daring symphonic experience are French chanteuse and multi-instrumentalist SoKo and Italian actress, singer and director Asia Argento.

You can check out lead track 'Philadelphie Story’ featuring SoKo now via Soundcloud.

Newcombe recorded Musique de film imaginé in Berlin in August 2014, after a successful European tour for the Brian Jonestown Massacre. He explains that “The album that you are about to hear is a soundtrack, my own creation, a tribute to great directors and filmmakers to an era that now seems to be behind us. Leaving the smart person to care to imagine that this art could now be in the shadow of its former glory.

“The interesting thing about this project is that the film does not exist either. Even so, I imagined and I realized its soundtrack... Now it's your turn, you are the listener to imagine the film.”

Brian Jonestown Massacre returned last May with their fourteenth full-length album Revelation to critical acclaim. It is the first album that was fully recorded and produced at Anton Newcombe’s recording studio in Berlin.

Oh Land Announces Fourth Album 'Earth Sick'

Oh Land is back and ready to release her new album on Monday March 2.

Led by the anthemic dance pop of single 'Head Up High', Earth Sick is Oh Land's fourth album and marks a return to the roots that launched her music career; writing, recording and producing everything herself at home, with the help of those nearest and dearest to her.  

On lead single 'Head Up High' Nanna Øland Fabricius aka Oh Land explains "I had forgotten that I wrote this song for a friend that was going through a tough time in her life. I wrote it and sent it to her as encouragement. I told her to hold her head high and not let herself drown in her sorrows, but fight!  She reminded me a year later when we were doing some recording for this album in Portugal and when she played the song to me I knew I had to finish it immediately!   It was actually the last song added to the album, and will be the first that everyone gets to hear."

'Head Up High' is out on Monday February 23 but you can check out the video now via YouTube
