Chvrches – “Get Away”

Zane Lowe and the BBC have teamed up for a project that frankly is kind of weird. Lowe will be “rescoring” Drive by curating artists for new music to go with the film on a BBC Three airing this October 30th at 10 p.m. The project features new music from artist such as BANKS, SBTRKT, The Neighbourhood and Chvrches amongst others. 

“Get Away” is the the first new music we have heard from Chvrches in quite some time given the rapid fire nature of how music is distributed and shared now days on the internet. It’s not my favorite song from the band, I find it less appealing than pretty much every track on The Bones Of What You Believe but it’s a good sign that the group is working on new material. Give the song a spin from below..

Onomatopoeia Exclusive Download: /ˈjedˌīak/ - “Burning Chvrches EP” (Chvrches vs. Michael Jackson, Empire Of The Sun, Sean Paul, R. Kelly, Katy Perry)

Happy Sunday y’all, the lords day as some folks would call it, seemed only appropriate to release a new ep by the name of Burning Chvrches.  It’s amazing how much you can get done in twelve hours if you buckle down and focus. What I have for your listening enjoyment below is five remix/mashup’s that offer a taste of the ten or so I completed yesterday using the instrumentals from Chvrches' Bones Of What You Believe LP.  I tried to jump around a bit with the acapellas and leave the hip hop on the side lines this time choosing to focus on pop, R&B and reggaeton; with the likes of Michael Jackson, Empire Of The Sun, R. Kelly, Katy Perry and Sean Paul guiding me. Visit the player below to listen, download and share.

Video: Chvrches – “Recover”

While it is commonplace for a band to re-shoot an existing video when more success has come I find it strange that Chvrches re-released an alternate video for an already pretty well known single.  While the original clip wasn't the most exciting video ever it most certainly was more innovative then the remixed visuals for single “Recover” which is made up of tour footage, thing is it's a great song so who cares?

The original video in case you didn't catch it the first time around….

Video: Chvrches – “Lies”

Chvrches have shared a new music video for their track “Lies” off their exceptional and super catchy Bones of What You Believe LP.  The clip was directed by Sing J. Lee who has worked with the band in the past.
