TAME IMPALA’S “END OF SUMMER” SPARKS INSPIRATION

 

First release on new label home Columbia Records

PHILIPPINES – Tame Impala (Kevin Parker) returns with the release of “End of Summer,” his first recording for new label Columbia Records. The song marks a new dawn for Tame Impala, as Parker once again expands the parameters of the project further into realms unexplored. Drawing from the deep, rich history of dance music, “End Of Summer” recasts Tame Impala as a kind of future primitive rave act. The track harkens back to the acid house summer of ’89, to free parties of the mid-90s, to bush doofs in outback paddocks - to an imagined history, transmuted into something simultaneously present and eternal, still unmistakably Tame Impala. The thrill of spontaneous studio experimentation that has marked Tame Impala recordings since the beginning is more evident than ever, Parker’s mastery of his craft imprinting the track with an array of brain-bending, subtly manipulative sparkle.

 

“End of Summer” arrives with a short form visual narrative directed by multi-disciplinary artist Julian Klincewicz. Watch HERE.

MURI AND SHIGGE POUR TWILIGHT’S SOUL INTO THEIR STUNNING NEW TRACK “GOLDEN HOUR”

PHILIPPINES - Filipino soul-pop artist Muri and Japanese electronic producer Shigge have finally dropped  “Golden Hour,” the luminous first single off their upcoming joint EP, SETSUNA—slated to be released next month.

The soulful electronic track serves as the entry point into the shared universe Muri and Shigge crafted together, capturing the fleeting beauty of twilight: the moment when day dissolves into night.

“It’s the kind of song that lives in transition: when you wrap up work, call it a day, and grab a happy hour beer on a rooftop,” Muri shares. “It’s for that moment when the house DJ begins to play, and you let the music take you somewhere else. Everything else—your wins, frustrations, and should-have-beens, disappear into the sunset.”
