Maribou State announce 2019 UK tour

Having sold-out their upcoming Roundhouse show in a matter of weeks, Maribou State have now announced an extension of their autumn 2018 UK tour, bringing them firmly into next year with a headline show at London’s Brixton Academy.

Set to hit the esteemed venue on 7th March, the duo have also revealed further shows across the country, including stops at Bristol’s O2 Academy and Manchester’s Albert Hall.

Maribou State’s new album ‘Kingdoms In Colour‘, released last Friday, is the band’s first full-length project since 2015’s breakthrough debut, ‘Portraits’. Inspired by the field recordings they made around the world while travelling and touring their last album, ‘Kingdoms In Colour’ has been described by the band as a “sonic collage”, drawing on ideas and sketches that were written and recorded in places in Asia, Australia, Morocco, America and beyond.

Mariah Carey announces new song ‘GTFO’; lands Thursday

0

Mariah Carey has finally confirmed new music, after sharing teaser images in the studio back in the summer.

Announcing her new song ‘GTFO’ on Twitter, the song follows recent reunions with Jermaine Dupri and Bobby Ross Avila; it’s currently unclear who produced the new song though.

Back in March, Mariah revealed more about her upcoming new album, the follow-up to 2014’s ‘Me. I Am Mariah… The Elusive Chanteuse’. In an interview with V Magainze, the star said “there’s a different approach that I’m taking as an artist. I think it’s like a fresh start.” She continued to say that while most people see her as a diva, she sees herself as “a songwriter first, and then a singer. That’s what I love to do the most.”

‘GTFO’ lands at 8am tomorrow; check the artwork below:

Hear Kokiri and Dragonette hook up for ‘Faith In Love’

Kokiri returns four months on from ‘Pyramids’, teaming up with Canadian vocalist Dragonette for the vibrant ‘Faith In Love’.

A track that’s likely to be a huge dancefloor staple as we zoom straight into autumnal clubland, ‘Faith In Love’ could well be counted as one of the Liverpudlian producer’s finest outputs.

“Sometimes as an artist, you find yourself listening to a vocal over and over, desperate to find some inspiration at 3am on the 46th listen. This wasn’t the case for ‘Faith In Love'” says Kokori, adding “as soon as I heard the vocal, I knew exactly how I wanted this track to sound. I wanted to create an ethereal feel to mirror the emotional context of the lyrics. I wanted the track to subtly build up in energy and then surprise the listener by having a drop that contradicts the delicacy of the lyrics.”
