Marina Allen - Swinging Doors (Official Video)

firerecords 2024-04-23 | Marina Allen's new album 'Eight Pointed Star' is out 7th June. Listen/pre-order here: https://MarinaAllen.lnk.to/EightPointedStarID

Directed shot and edited by Eliel Ford
Starring Marina Allen + Maddie Fischer

Marina Allen, the Los Angeles-based singer and songwriter, shares a new single/video, 'Swinging Doors' from her upcoming third studio album, 'Eight Pointed Star', out June 7th on Fire Records. Following the “truly divine” (PAPER) lead single 'Red Cloud' , 'Swinging Doors' celebrates entering a new chapter in your life and the excitement when the new chapter feels right – “like the butterflies you get in the line at Six Flags or in the car on a first date. It’s an ode to risk equally as it’s an ode to trust," says Allen.

“I wrote more about love than I ever have before on this record. Not even necessarily romantic love. ‘Swinging Doors’ is a trust fall. But instead of self-reflection, it’s more about experientially discovering what that means.” Marina Allen

You can hear contentment radiating from the music, with Chris Cohen’s (Weyes Blood, Le Ren) production offering a full-band affair. The instrumentation is rich and bursting with brightness, as slide guitar drifts over acoustic thrums. With an affection for singers such as The Roches, Karen Dalton, Joanna Newsom and Meredith Monk, Allen’s voice stands up to the canon - never sounding more resolute than it does here.

Jane Weaver - Love In Constant Spectacle (Album Out Now Trailer)

firerecords 2024-04-05 | Recalibrating her singular journey in the British musical landscape with her most open-hearted, direct and intimate collection of material yet. Love In Constant Spectacle evokes spectacular imagery and distills the artists’ vision in its purest form, elevating her inimitable sound and poetic vision to new heights.

Recapturing the melancholy of her early work whilst propelling it forward, she sketches scenes as we watch new colours, shapes and languages emerge and fill the frame. Love In Constant Spectacle sees her take measured steps towards a vivid, dreamlike record, that offers resolve in the face of life’s inevitability.

The foundations of Weaver’s sound are still evident – lush motorik drums, pulsating bass, custom modded synths and exotic fuzz pedals – but the stream is awash with scrabble piece poetry and Letraset lullabies leading to lush escapism, the free abandon that you’d associate with free jazz and the avant-garde. But, as determined and visionary as Weaver might be, Love In Constant Spectacle wasn’t executed without assistance. Here we find a long mooted unison with Jane’s first ever producer, John Parish (PJ Harvey, Aldous Harding), who has shared Weaver’s process in the surrounds of Rockfield Studios and Geoff Barrow’s Invada studio.

Love In Constant Spectacle is otherworldly, it is both intimate yet distant, a surrealist interpretation of the foundations that make us human – the stories and landscapes it paints are habitats of their own. A voyage into undisclosed pastures, it’s a heartfelt manifesto from an artist that continues to boundlessly evolve with each chapter in her career.

Ella Raphael - All In (Official Video)

firerecords 2024-03-28 | Listen to Ella Raphael's new single 'All In' here: https://EllaRaphael.lnk.to/AllInWE

Following the magnificent ‘Tangled Love’, Ella releases a third slice of perfect pensive pop with a provocative love song set on a deserted beach as the lights fail. ‘All In’ is heavy on the reverb as Ella’s woozy recollections roll out.

It’s a road movie set in Antalya, meandering along the coastline, before the chorus indulges this love, never wanting it to finish. Powered by 50s guitars, it’s a love song for modern times filled with a yearning for the past and how it unfolded.

“It’s a melancholic melody for a love song; reminiscing about meeting someone I’ve fallen for, the desire to be near this person; not letting go, filled with the feeling of butterflies.” Ella Raphael

Ella Raphael is blessed with an amazing voice; a woozy, bluesy, euphoric sound that’s filled with warmth and emotion; it’s engaging, like an old friend telling tales and spinning stories. Brought up on Elvis and Ella Fitzgerald, with her travels adding The Shirelles, Serge Gainsbourg and Karen Dalton (to whom her lilting vocal occasionally recalls).

“It was inspired by many greats such as Joe Meek, Charlie Megira, Brenda Lee, Patsy Cline and Julee Cruise; with a type of romantic darkness and melancholy brooding within the melody, knowing that this feeling will come to an end, but almost afraid to say it in words.” Adds Ella. In the video, directed by Ella and Aviya Wyse, “the lamp is the lover with their longing for closeness; it’s a dance of intimacy. The outdoor scenes are a mystical dreamworld, a fantasy of desire, fascination, enticement, foolishness and madness, all of the elements that come together when falling in love.”

Marina Allen - Eight Pointed Star (Official Album Trailer)

firerecords 2024-03-25 | Marina Allen's new album 'Eight Pointed Star' is out 7th June. Listen/pre-order here: https://MarinaAllen.lnk.to/EightPointedStarID

The third album of powerfully vivid songwriting from Marina Allen. Beautifully orchestrated, highly melodic and delivered with unrivalled lyrical perspective. Across two acclaimed records, the Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter has ripened a rare harvest, but her third studio album is an arrival home. Taking fragments and stories from Marina’s past, Eight-Pointed Star deftly weaves together a new future, in what feels for all the world like a glittering, clear-eyed modern classic of alternative folk and Americana.

Ineffable and timeless, this collection of songs holds a curiosity that’s as open to you as you are to them. Compared to the soaring and swelling compositions of Allen’s second album Centrifics or the innocent tranquillity of Candlepower, the world of Eight Pointed Star is more deeply addressing and open-armed. It favours a type of soul-searching that doesn’t dwell in complications, and is open to answers. Rolling guitars rise and fall with the canyons and dust is kicked-up from the red scarred earth. Allen’s vocals pure and crystalline whilst the instrumentation is rich and bursting with brightness. You can hear contentment radiating from the music, with Chris Cohen’s production offering a full-band affair.

Yosa Peit - HAD3S / AOL SLYT (Official Video)

firerecords 2024-03-21 | “I was born on a planet, I got hungry and I ate it”

Yosa Peit spawns fleshy sonic escapades on her second album ‘Gut Buster’ where she grapples with the destructive force of modern consumption. Peit’s new album is an anti-capitalist statement that synthesizes intimacy and hostility; a surrealist-punk affirmation and a testament to Peit’s singular vision and unique approach.

“I hear people mention the gut all the time, it’s super present in our language, what’s your gut say, you got guts… We forget what a crazy fascinating organ the gut is, bearing a universe. The way we consume food equals how carelessly we consume earth, knowingly and repeatedly. We make changes only when something is right in front of your door.”

‘Gut Buster’ carries all the nutrients we need. Yosa brings us provisions by way of an eclectic creative process, interweaving sound through free experimentation and collaboration. Her unique approach to songwriting and production, which past collaborator Holly Herndon calls “super fresh”, has now garnered a cult following.

Lyrics:
Make no mistake I am here
Fully fleshed, all ears
Impressions on your face
Painting vast landscapes
Nowhere to hide..
with such exposed minds
Animate, my still life
make it dance into trance
Ooooh, bottled inside
Ooooh, nothing to hide

Paying our dues to the Gods
Orthodox, have-nots
Bitter crops, no rain drops
Where oh where do I go from here
Reap what I know
Animate my still life
Make it dance, for a while...
Ooooh, bottled inside
Ooooh, Make it what you will

Vanishing Twin - The Age Of Immunology (Teal & Pink Editions Trailer)

firerecords 2024-03-07 | Vanishing Twin’s seminal LP, 'The Age Of Immunology', receives a LTD edition pressing on None ‘Pink’ and Sine ‘Teal’ vinyl, limited to 500 units each and paired with matching sleeve art. An essential take on psych-pop futurism and a must for fans of Broadcast, Sun Ra and Ennio Morricone: fire-records.lnk.to/vanishingtwinTAOIID

Establishing the band as innovators in their field, the record was declared “a masterpiece” by The Line Of Best Fit, while The Quietus asserted Vanishing Twin as “one of the most original and exciting acts of the moment”.

This was the group’s first LP for Fire Records, at the time of recording the band’s evolving lineup consisted of songwriter, singer and multi-instrumentalist Cathy Lucas, drummer Valentina Magaletti, bassist Susumu Mukai, synth/guitar player Phil MFU and visual artist/film maker Elliott Arndt on flute and percussion.

The album was produced by Lucas in a number of non-standard, non-studio settings. ‘KRK (At Home In Strange Places)’ summons up the spirit of Sun Ra’s 'Lanquidity' and 'Broadcast And The Focus Group Investigate Witch Cults Of The Radio' and was simply recorded on an iPhone during a live set which crackled with psychic connectivity on the Croatian island of Krk. The magical Morricone-esque lounge of ‘You Are Not an Island’, the blissed-out Jean-Claude Vannier style arrangement of ‘Invisible World’ and burbling sci fi funk ode to a 1972 cult French animation, ‘Planète Sauvage’, were all recorded in night-time sessions in an abandoned mill in Sudbury.

'The Age Of Immunology' is out 3rd May. Available in LTD edition pressing on None ‘Pink’ and Sine ‘Teal’ vinyl, limited to 500 units each and paired with matching sleeve art.

The Bevis Frond - Focus On Nature (Album Out Now Trailer)

firerecords 2024-03-01 | Out now: https://TheBevisFrond.lnk.to/FocusOnNatureID

Focus On Nature is the new studio album from celebrated post-psyche singer songwriter Nick Saloman and his band The Bevis Frond. Seventy-five minutes of glorious melodies that span 60s psych, English folk, Seattle art-punks The Wipers, the buzzsaw pop of Dinosaur Jr and Hendrix-esque explorations. There’s always an element of playful Englishness to their music.

“Still mixing pop, punk and psych to giddy effect.” The Guardian

Heavily influencing the likes of The Lemonheads, Teenage Fanclub, Elliot Smith, Pavement and Dinosaur Jr, the cult icons have produced another off-kilter mix of melodic piano-led melancholy, acoustic ruminations, scratchy garage rock with a punky edge and full-on guitar histrionics.

Like its much-praised predecessor, ‘Little Eden’, the new record studies the world’s weariness but fills out a bigger canvas; fast food and global warming, broken hearts and long gone nights out, everyday immortality and being God’s gift all share space. It’s like Townshend at his most thematic; Big Star in all their acoustic glory, perfectly balancing the punky garage rock combo who end up running on ‘Empty’ with Gilmour breaks that elevate it all to grandeur.

“Self-reflection is twinned with a rueful survey of the current state of the nation.” Uncut

Graham Reynolds - Music For Prophet (EP Out Trailer)

firerecords 2024-03-01 | Graham Reynolds new EP is out now: https://GrahamReynolds.lnk.to/MusicForProphetID

Graham Reynolds continues his sortie into solo territory with new EP out today ‘Music For Prophet’, a hybrid of Eno-ambience and Reynolds’ inspired penchant for drama; the tower is an over-arching monolith from a dreamy road movie where Charles Mingus trades melodies with Floating Points.

Never one to take the easy route, Graham Reynolds adds a new dynamism to what we hear. The grandeur of his soundtrack work permeates this solo sojourn as it swings and swaggers between the brooding hues of Peter Talisman's renowned neo-folk electronica and the soulful drama of Marta Del Grandi, and way out beyond. Condensing it into a suitcase for live dates will be a Darwinian escapade, it’s unpacking to an expectant audience, an experience to never forget.

@JaneWeaver enters ‘Romantic Worlds’ in new fantasy inspired music video ✨🧚‍♂️

firerecords 2024-02-27 | New single ‘Romantic Worlds’ is an elaborate love song where exuberant synths explore brief encounters and our perceptions of modern romance.

“I wanted to write a really over the top love song, it’s kind of tongue in cheek and about romance and brief encounters with a wonky synth. It’s based on a ‘real life’ date after meeting online, how this changes from generation to generation and how romance is perceived now.”
Jane Weaver

Accompanied by a fantasy inspired, hazy romantic new music video, it sees a couple transported to another dimension where they are challenged in an otherworldly universe to use their character skills in order to escape.

This video presented an opportunity to finally let the characters make their getaway. The 'realm' was one of my first forays into the world of AI. I was really happy with how it interpreted the footage and threw up some weird and wonderful results.” adds Director, Nick Farrimond

@ThalaThala unveils a brand new video for ‘Ferris Wheel’ from her 2023 EP ‘twotwentytwo’ 🎡 ...

firerecords 2024-01-29 | "'Ferris Wheel' is as an ode to my older, future self. Reminiscent of the life I will have lived, the accomplishments, the things I've done, the people I loved, the ones I lost, and the other way around. I wanted to shoot the video on a Ferris Wheel as it felt like life going full circle. Looking back and accepting everything that happened, not regretting a thing because it all made sense in the end. Realizing that the world is always in motion, no matter what we do."

Watch the video here: youtu.be/2iSwuwKSYtk

‘twotwentytwo’ is out now, available on LTD Edition Clear Vinyl.

Ella Raphael reveals new single & video Tangled Love ✨

Ella Raphael - Tangled Love (Official Video)

firerecords 2024-01-25 | Following her debut single ‘See You Through’, the hypnotic ‘Tangled Love’ trips into Tropicalia territory; a hazy, echoey vibraphone-led slice of melancholy with a lush lap steel guitar adding some exquisite exotica. Listen here: ellaraphael.lnk.to/TangledLoveID

Wooed by the symbolism of time and place, inspired by the movies of Jodorowsky and Godard's Le Mépris, Ella has crafted a sound that’s as wide-ranging as her influences and experiences on a song that channels the light and dark of her music.

‘Tangled Love’ is a noirish lament for love; a timeless moment filled with aching memories, with an Yma Sumac sub melody underpinning the sha la la la of perfect pop.

LYRICS
Don't mask, don't mask where all this came from
Continuing this path from different wavelength
No we can't undo the tangled love we've been through
Sha la la la
So why do I do to you, what I hate what I hate
Sha la la la Every time
It swallows me whole I mean different but in the poison I crawl

No we can't undo, the tangled love we've been through
Sha la la la
So why do I do to you, what I hate

Si tu promets de ne rien dire
L'amour est une petite jonquille
Regarde-moi la douzième fois
So why do I do to you, what I hate
What I hate
Sha la la la
Sha la la la

Immaterial Possession share single Sugar in a Memory and accompanying animation #firerecords

firerecords 2024-01-22 | Immaterial Possession reveal new single 'Sugar In A Memory', listen here: https://ImmaterialPossession.lnk.to/SugarInAMemoryID

Animation by Lindsey Elcessor.

Conjuring a mysterious brew of folk, psychedelia, world music, and progressive rock, Immaterial Possession are a group from Athens, Georgia whose music takes listeners into a world all their own. Their sound is exotic without being forbidding, created within the framework of pop music while embracing a mindset that falls outside its boundaries, and generating a sense of joy even when it slips into a shadowy mood. Introducing themselves with their self-titled debut album in 2020, and 2023’s 'Mercy of the Crane Folk' fleshed out their ideas with greater skill and assurance.

Immaterial Possession embark on their first UK tour this Spring and to celebrate they return with new music. New single ‘Sugar in a Memory’ takes you through day-dreamy, intimate musings of desperation, longing and dealing with loss. A song written by Madeline during the formative days of the band it carries with it the personal and nostalgic feeling of romance, seasonal change, and the exploration through poetry of nature herself. ‘Sugar in Memory’ is a song of hopefulness that summons the Spring – a time for new beginnings, rebirth and growth.

24 Apr: Sneaky Pete’s, Edinburgh, UK, w/ Marta Del Grandi

Immaterial Possession - Sugar in a Memory (Official Video)

Yosa Peit - World Eaters (Official Visualiser)

firerecords 2024-01-18 | “I was born on a planet, I got hungry and I ate it”

Yosa Peit spawns fleshy sonic escapades on her second album ‘Gut Buster’ where she grapples with the destructive force of modern consumption. Peit’s new album is an anti-capitalist statement that synthesizes intimacy and hostility; a surrealist-punk affirmation and a testament to Peit’s singular vision and unique approach.

“I hear people mention the gut all the time, it’s super present in our language, what’s your gut say, you got guts… We forget what a crazy fascinating organ the gut is, bearing a universe. The way we consume food equals how carelessly we consume earth, knowingly and repeatedly. We make changes only when something is right in front of your door.”

‘Gut Buster’ carries all the nutrients we need. Yosa brings us provisions by way of an eclectic creative process, interweaving sound through free experimentation and collaboration. Her unique approach to songwriting and production, which past collaborator Holly Herndon calls “super fresh”, has now garnered a cult following.

Jane Weaver reveals new album Love In Constant Spectacle, listen to the new single Perfect Storm

firerecords 2024-01-16 | Jane Weaver reveals new album 'Love In Constant Spectacle'. Listen to the new single 'Perfect Storm'/pre-order album here: janeweaver.lnk.to/LICSID

“An artist at the top of her game” NPR

Recalibrating her singular journey in the British musical landscape with her most open-hearted, direct and intimate collection of material yet. Love In Constant Spectacle evokes spectacular imagery and distils the artists’ vision in its purest form, elevating her inimitable sound and poetic vision to new heights.

Recapturing the melancholy of her early work whilst propelling it forward, she sketches scenes as we watch new colours, shapes and languages emerge and fill the frame. Love In Constant Spectacle sees her take measured steps towards a vivid, dreamlike record, that offers resolve in the face of life’s inevitability.

The foundations of Weaver’s sound are still evident – lush motorik drums, pulsating bass, custom modded synths and exotic fuzz pedals - but the stream is awash with scrabble piece poetry and Letraset lullabies leading to lush escapism, the free abandon that you’d associate with free jazz and the avant-garde. But, as determined and visionary as Weaver might be, Love In Constant Spectacle wasn’t executed without assistance. Here we find a long mooted unison with Jane’s first ever producer, John Parish (PJ Harvey, Aldous Harding), who has shared Weaver’s process in the surrounds of Rockfield Studios and Geoff Barrow’s Invada studio.

'Love In Constant Spectacle' is otherworldly, it is both intimate yet distant, a surrealist interpretation of the foundations that make us human – the stories and landscapes it paints are habitats of their own. A voyage into undisclosed pastures, it’s a heartfelt manifesto from an artist that continues to boundlessly evolve with each chapter in her career.

Fire Records 40th Anniversary: Islet & Pictish Trail at Paper Dress Vintage for IVW

firerecords 2024-01-16 | Fire Records starts celebrations for their 40th orbit (1984-2024) at Paper Dress Vintage on 31st January, a precursor to the massive, near sold-out all day extravaganza at EartH Theatre taking place on 27 April 2024.

Home to psychedelic wanderers, everyday cult icons and experimental deep thinkers, Fire curates a special evening for Independent Venue Week (IVW) featuring Isle-of-Eigg Pictish Trail and Welsh liminal shapeshifters Islet; a far-flung smorgasbord brought into unified focus for one night only.

Pictish Trail’s acclaimed album, 'Island Family', is a strange, sardonic and deeply personal record; a view of arcadia, it’s a search for the euphoric in the bucolic by way of Flaming Lips, Liars, Mercury Rev and Beck.

“Mysterious, cinematic, pop melancholia” The Guardian
“One of my favourite artists” Lauren Laverne

Islet’s hypnotic, free-spirited invention and exuberant intensity is exhilarating and defiantly unique. Their lauded new album 'Soft Fascination' is an ecstatic explosion of emotion, a balancing act of high energy cadence and meditations underpinned with glorious melodies and evocative vocals that swirl in a symphonic surf.

“Truly defiant.. their psych-indebted wanderings occupy a singular realm” Clash Magazine
“A clattering rush of snappy euphoria, krautrock pulses and Liz Fraser-esque vocal layering.” MOJO

Limited tickets are on sale now via DICE

Air Waves - The Roof (Blue Hawaii Remix)

firerecords 2024-01-12 | Air Waves reveals new remix of 'The Roof' by Blue Hawaii. Listen here: fire-records.lnk.to/AirWavesBH

Heady with hooks and unforgettable melodies, gliding on deeply danceable grooves, Air Waves’ innate compassion, concision and uncanny pop continues to shine. Nico Schneit revisits their acclaimed 2022 album ‘The Dance’ by way of a new remix from Canadian, electronic duo Blue Hawaii.

Blue Hawaii’s ‘Not My Boss’ and ‘I Felt Love’ from their 2020 album ‘Under 1 House’ lifted Nico when a relationship came to an end. Inviting Blue Hawaii to rework endearing album opener, ‘The Roof’, the single is transformed into a techno inspired euphoric track that evokes those fun and loose nights out clubbing.

“It’s about feeling good about yourself no matter if you’re alone or with someone else and also learning to walk away when something feels bad.” explains Nico “I think of people dancing to techno alone, in the dark, foggy clubs where nothing matters and there’s no judgement just music to lose yourself to.”

This energetic new collaboration ‘The Roof (Blue Hawaii Upside Down Remix)’ continues to build themes of strength and solidarity explored on 'The Dance’.
