Madison Beer – Reckless
(Spotify)

“The successful singer "Madison Beer" shares her work and feelings with us. "Reckless" is a song for those who have betrayed their other half. It reveals their ignorance and untrustworthy behaviour. On the contrary, Madison's heartwarming voice can offer a soothing touch to many broken hearts outhere.”

Madison Beer releases “Reckless,” a powerful vocal statement from the rising pop star and the first single to come from her next project. The soaring track, co-written and co-produced by Madison, follows the announcement of the US and Canada leg of her Life Support Tour (tickets on sale now).

“’Reckless’ was written about how easy it is for some people in relationships to hurt others and move on without any guilt,” says Madison. “People have so much power over their partner’s feelings, yet many still choose to treat each other carelessly. I believe there is a balance to putting ourselves and our feelings first, while knowing we have the responsibility of treating people with respect, kindness, and consideration. It’s so important to find that balance in every relationship and knowing when to move on if you can't.”

“Reckless” follows Madison’s debut album, Life Support, her strongest personal and artistic statement to date, which was released earlier this year to critical acclaim. The album has accumulated over 700 million streams to date after debuting at no. 1 on US iTunes, no. 1 on Spotify US's Album Chart, no. 2 on Spotify Global's Album Chart and in the Top 30 of the UK Official Album Chart. Life Support includes singles “Selfish,” Madison’s fastest ever gold-certified record, and “BOYSHIT,” which Billboard called “one of the best pop chorus openings of 2020.” She has attracted the endorsements of The Guardian, The Sunday Times, i-D, NME, Clash, V Magazine, Paper, and Rolling Stone (who hailed her a “rising popstar”). Globally, Madison has over 3 billion streams across her catalogue to date, and a social following of over 25 million on Instagram, 14 million on TikTok, and 3 million on Twitter.

MADISON BEER’S “RECKLESS” IS AVAILABLE ACROSS ALL PLATFORMS NOW:

STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION – OMEGA
(Video)

“Imagine a track made as you wish. Packed with that huge amount of energy and dancing spirit. Too good to be true? Try “OMEGA” and feel your heart beating faster and faster. International style for all Pop lovers, that strikes like thunder in the middle of the night.”

-Nagamag.com

Producer, Singer-Songwriter R・O・N’s project STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION has pre-released its newest single “OMEGA” on all music streaming platforms before the actual CD press version that is scheduled to be released on June 2nd, 2021. As introduced, the new track had been completed in literally meaning “the ultimate” dance tune, being precisely calculated and crafted into the finest dance music.

“OMEGA” has been chosen as the ending theme song for the 2nd seasons of the popular anime series “Moriarty the Patriot”. Moriarty the Patriot is based on the story of William James Moriarty, nemesis to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes. “OMEGA” follows up from his previous work “ALPHA” which had also been the ending theme song for the 1st season. Just like how a detective novel would have its hint drawing plots, the song not only traps those who are anime fans, but also pure music lovers with its cleverly designed tones. The moment you unravel the mystery, the enveloped beats will make your cells bounce.

Olisae – Mahasani

“The variety found in the track -mahasani- embodies the whole depth and complexity of -olisae- talent. For sure, the song is unique as part of his genre. Beautiful couplers crossing into powerful chorus... an excellent experiment in vocal processing.”

Asbjørn – (Love Like A) Teenager (Spotify)

Asbjørn – (Love Like A) Teenager
(Spotify)

“Nagamag would like to immediately praise the author for his professional approach in creating this track. Sound, arrangement, vocals, everything in the right place. - (Love Like A) Teenage- very suitable to remember all the good and bad things in life, to make the right conclusions, and the hopelessness of the nebula remain in the distant past.”

“Сразу хочется похвалить автора за его профессиональный подход в создании этого трека. Звук, аранжировка, вокал, всё на своих местах. -(Love Like A) Teenage- очень хорошо подходит, чтобы вспомнить все хорошие и плохие события в жизни, сделать правильные выводы и всю безнадежную туманность оставить в далёком прошлом.”

-Nagamag.com

With his new single, a 90s-pop-infused summer-banger, Asbjørn once again proves his Scandinavian pop to be as inventive as it is catchy. Disguised as a one-man-boyband, Asbjørn lures you in with orchestral stabs and an infectious sing-along refrain - but I bet you’ve never heard a key-change quite like this. ‘(Love Like A) Teenager’ is accompanied by a secret music video, also teased in last months visuals for the first single Young Dumb Crazy.

https://youtu.be/qT9Z4xRgpww

The video turns back time to 2016, where the video was filmed - but never released - and is an exclusive gift to Asbjørn’s fans, who pre-save the song or sign up for his newsletter.

Since the beginning of his career, Asbjørn has explored gender and identity on stage, his lyrics and music videos. Striving to “be the male ideal I desperately needed myself when I was a teenager”, Asbjørn also tours schools in his native Denmark, combining an infectious live show with student dialogues to talk about ideals in the mainstream. He says: “I don’t care what society considers masculine, but I sure did back then. I want to create a space where they can express their identity, sexuality and feelings freely.”

In the coming weeks, Asbjørn will explore these matters further as a guest contributor at Germany’s leading music and culture magazine, KALTBLUT. Under the title POPTOPIA, Asbjørn will host a series of interviews on Kaltblut and Instagram Live, discussing identity and pop culture with prominent guests from both in and outside the music industry. The first instalment of POPTOPIA features the British rapper James Indigo, and will be announced via Asbjørn’s socials and Kaltblut.

‘(Love Like A) Teenager’ is released on Wednesday the 2nd of June and is Asbjørn’s second single from his forthcoming LP BOYOLOGY, due to be released later this year via Embassy of Music and his imprint Body of Work.
