Chase Atlantic Release “Into It” Music Video Via Snapchat

1 Comment

Chase Atlantic are the heart of what’s new and fun in music and they don’t shy away from unorthodox ways of doing things. The guys just released their new video for “Into It” on Snapchat which is pretty dang cool if you ask us!  When they announced their tactic early in the week, we weren’t quite sure what to expect or how that was going happen since Snaps only last for 24 hours max unless the person who posted them saves them. We knew that we had to follow the guys to get the full story!  Pun fully intended.

Brothers Mitchell and Clinton Cave together with their friend Christian Anthony were just teasing us with their Snapstory music video because they released the entire music video on Facebook shortly after and quickly racked up 5k+ views on it!

The guys edited all of their fun and rowdy Snap stories together from the past couple of months to their new single, “Into It.”  There are snaps from the studio, the guys hanging with Benji and Joel Madden and the MDDN Co management team, traveling to NYC, and even some live shots of the band performing.  We love the creativity behind this video and can’t wait to see what Chase Atlantic come up with next!  Watch the video below.

Shiffley Release “Sleepless Night” Remixes

Leave a comment

Our friends in Shiffley have been relatively quiet lately, but their latest single “Sleepless Night” just got the remix treatment from a bunch of awesome collaborators!  The remixes are packaged together and bring out the best of the single on each remix.

These are perfect for whatever mood you’re in whether you’re mellowing out to the Figaro “Sleepytime Tea” Remix or getting ready for a night out with your friends to the N2N remix.  We had a hard time picking a favorite but the Shinynaut remix is really good!  It highlights the high energy of the track and adds in a subtle ticking clock just before the big drop.  If any of these could easily be worked into a Skrillex set, it’s this one!

Listen to all of the “Sleepless Nights” Remixes below and try to pick a favorite!

The Vamps and Citizen Four Perform at Sold Out Gramercy Theatre In NYC

1 Comment

It’s hard to believe it’s been 3 years since The Vamps’ first headlining show (ever!) in NYC, at Gramercy Theatre back in February 2014.  James, Connor, Tristan and Brad have come a long way since then, selling out arenas like the O2 in London and dropping 2 albums along the way.  It’s been a while since the boys have had a headlining show in NYC, and we were thrilled to see them back at the Gramercy Theatre last night!

The Vamps certainly know how to put on a high energy show – it’s impossible not to sing and dance along!  The enthusiastic crowd knew and sang along to every word, including their brand new single “All Night.”  Their set included songs from both albums, from “Can We Dance” to “Wake Up,”   and they brought out a special guest during “Somebody To You!”  Sabrina Carpenter, who is opening for The Vamps in Europe, joined the guys to sing Demi Lovato’s part.

Brad told the crowd since he’s been in America for a while now, he’d caught on to some slang.  “Get ready because tonight is going to be ‘lit’ and you’re all going to get ‘turnt up.'”  (Imagine this with a British accent).  The band does an excellent job of getting the crowd involved, calling out fans in the audience and encouraging them to sing along.  Brad even jumped off stage near the end of the show to get closer to the fans!

At the end of the night when the band left the stage, instead of the usual “encore” chants, the crowd broke out into an a cappella version of “All Night.”   Their singing morphed into The Vamps coming back on to play the song themselves.  It was a perfect ending that left everyone wanting more!

If you didn’t make it to the show last night, not to worry:  Brad promised that they would be back “very soon” and are going on tour in North America this Summer!   Stay tuned for the announcement coming soon!

Our new favorite boyband, Citizen Four, kicked the night off in style with their sweet harmonies and smooth dance moves.  We’ve been singing their single “Testify” ever since.  The best way to describe it is 🔥🔥🔥.  Conner, Carson, Austin, and Josh are so much fun to watch live!  They had the crowd rocking and we’re sure they gained quite a few new fans after that performance!

DREAMCAR Ft. Members of AFI & No Doubt Release “Kill For Candy”

Leave a comment

The new sickly sweet project DREAMCAR is the marriage of No Doubt members Tony Kanal Adrian Young, and Tom Dumont and AFI/Blackq Audio frontman Davey Havok.  The first single “Kill For Candy,” produced by Tim Pagnotta from Sugarcult is taken from the band’s debut self titled album due out May 12th on Columbia Records.

We mentioned how sickly sweet the single is but it’s catchy and will definitely set the tone for our Summer playlist this year.   “There’s an honesty in all of my lyrics,” Havok states. “This one speaks to a perhaps dangerous and unhealthy desire for the sweet.”

Watch the lyric video for DREAMCAR’s first single  “Kill For Candy” below!

DREAMCAR also announced a string of live dates surrounding their performances at Coachella 2017 as well as their live television debut on Jimmy Kimmel on April 18th!  Check out the tour dates below.
