💥 Up To S***f is out now! 💥

Meagre Martin’s new EP 'Up To S***f' is finally here! It's a journey through messy emotions, blending indie rock, shoegaze, and sludgy textures with raw honesty. Recorded at Berlin’s Butterama Recording Center and Big S***f, the EP embraces the complexities of love, generational struggles, and societal expectations. From the buoyant melodies of "Comfort Food" to the aching depths of "In The Room", the ethereal shoegaze of "Frankie", the introspective loops of "Never Thought", and the rebellious, guitar-driven energy of "Malcolm", every track captures the chaos and quiet of life with vulnerability and care.

If you're in Berlin, catch them playing the whole thing live March 29 at Neue Zukunft.

We're excited to announce the one-year anniversary edition of Discovery Zone's second album with the track "Qw4nt0hmW3b"! We've named this special edition "Quantum Web EXP", and it will be released on March 7 via Mansions and Millions & RVNG Intl. Featuring three new tracks, it will also be available as a limited cassette release (which you can already pre-order).

Here what she writes about the track and the video:

The track "QW4NT0HMW3B" was created by cutting up the whole record into fragments, experimenting with pitch, speed, sequence and texture, and then "playing" these pieces live, loaded onto different samplers. The idea of this audio puzzle manifested itself in visual form when I started messing around with all the music videos from the record, putting them through video synths, incorporating some visual diaries I've shot over the course of the last year or so, as well as pieces of a lost music video shot in my NYC apartment that I never finished. This video (itself an "advertisement" for the upcoming cassette release of Quantum Web EXP) is also interrupted by ad imagery for other Discovery Zone products, videos, and related ephemera. The timelines intersect and interrupt each other, images layered on each other like dreams within an ad, and ads within a dream.

Listen to Qw4nt0hmW3b by Discovery Zone, E/T.

Back from a great show at Pitchfork London and a massive 55 live shows in 2024, Meagre Martin wrap up the year with their stunning new single, 'Frankie' – a taste of their upcoming EP 'Up To S***f' (out Feb 14th).

Artist Quote:

Frankie is a shoegaze-inspired track that blends ethereal melodies with playful and rhythmic elements. The lyrics delve into the nuances of being a submissive partner, exploring themes of desire, trust, and vulnerability. It’s a simp(le) anthem that celebrates the exhilarating dynamics of love and passion, inviting listeners to embrace the beauty of surrender.

with "Ville Fleurie" we are releasing the third and final single by WORLD before the release of his long awaited second album "Open Source" (out Nov 1st.) which is coming out Nov 1st on vinyl (+ 100 exclusive color vinyl via Rough Trade) and digital platforms!

"This song depicts a walk in the city. The verses describe the busy, noisy streets and the mineral aspect of the architecture, whereas the chorus introduces the delicate perfume and mysterious charm of a flower."

There is a really cute music video for it which takes us on a journey down the streets at the scale of a little grey mouse having mysterious encounters. The video is animated in stop motion through various neighborhoods and suburbs of Paris.

Today we release the third single by Casablanca (known as 1/2 of the band GURR) from her upcoming debut album 'See More Glass' (out Oct 11th). There also is a cute little music video for it filmed by Giulio Rasi.

About the song she writes:

"I built this track around the synth pattern and it just screamed to become a dance bop. The lyrics paradoxically are more about the longing for more structure and calm. A longing for structure in between life changes and projects. I think you can hear my confusion in the little screams in between verses. I was sitting at Brussels Airport writing these lyrics and working on the song on my laptop. Precovid, in between touring, and visiting a friend in Belgium. It was a constant up and down (once laughing, once crying) in my life and I really missed structure - serious business. Sometimes it's so satisfying and calming to just get life in order, work on your laptop and make some calls"

You can also watch her play live!

Today isn't all too bad cause here is a new Meagre Martin single for you!

If you are in Berlin, you can actually see them play at our favorite Tennis Bar tomorrow (together with Das Beat) and also at Reeperbahn Festival, POP Montreal and Pitchfork London.

Very cool.

“Never Thought" questions how well we know the people in our lives, and how our security in them can still be shaken even after years of knowing them. The chords and melodies encircle and repeat, much like the rumination of thoughts in our heads.

06.09.24 DE Berlin - Tennis Bar
18.09.24 DE Hamburg - Reeperbahn Festival / UWE (19:40 - 20:25)
