World News Release The End Of Summer Smash – Nudist Beach
It's officially the last days of summer.
What better way to celebrate the change of seasons than with a World News single so blistering bizarre that it will leave you wondering quite what happened?
It's not just another day!!
Nudist Beach [SS125] arrives worldwide, accompanied by a music video by animator Dave Bell and amazing remixes by some of Toronto's finest talents. You'll find it on Spotify, Apple Music, Bandcamp and everywhere you listen to music.
World News worked on this one with producer and many-hat wearer, Josh Korody. Korody was responsible for the mix and also gave the track a hardware master that added dynamic and sparkle.
Speaking of Nudist Beach, World News told us –
"The sea has that calling that never really goes away, and being from Toronto, the only sea we have close by is the Great Lakes."
"Yes, you can argue that its not sea, but given the beautiful Ontario beaches plus the huge bodies of water with the added bonus of them being fresh and not salty, it's good enough for us."
"This track is about finding peace by the water, and then arguing how special it is to someone who lives right next to it. It might be normal for all you cottage folks, but for city-dwellers, any chance to stand by the water is special."
You'll be hearing more about the remix crew in good time, which includes Toronto psychedelic sleuth Cam Kirk (Your Grandad, Kali Horse, G.A.G), Maxine School of Dance, Dark Tapes, Ryan Beverage and LVTHNN.
Support the band directly via Bandcamp.

A Quick Look Back At The Bright Auras of Blue Light & Provincial Parcs
Geary Art Crawl 2024 is almost upon us!
To celebrate, we’re looking back at some of the epic performances from 2023, which were expertly live-streamed on the day by the brilliant people at Onaire.
You can watch the full sets from our very own Provincial Parcs (here) plus Blue Light (here) to relive these amazing performances.
We’ve also cut together a shorter, more bitesize video (link at top or here), if you don’t have time to relive the full 1hr 30mins run time!!
... oh and just when you thought you couldn't be any more excited, this isn’t the last you’ll be hearing of Provincial Parcs and Blue Light because we're working closely with both of them behind-the-scenes on some very special new stuff.
More on that soon! But for now... join us this Saturday from 1-8pm at Toronto's Bodyshop Studios on Geary Ave, for live performances from Animal Party, Forming and GAG. Learn more here and notify us if you plan to attend (only if you want to).
We can’t wait to see your beautiful smiling faces!
ANIMAL PARTY + FORMING + GAG = GEARY ART CRAWL 2024
We're delighted to be back again for our fourth year of music curation as part of Geary Art Crawl!
For 2024, we're over the moon to have booked three Toronto groups with so much passion, so much energy, so much pizzazz, that you'll be crawling gleefully away from Body Shop Studios after the show.
What's more, it's FREE! So bring that good vibe energy and come enjoy some time in that end of summer sun.
Saturday 21st September 4-8PM
ANIMAL PARTY + FORMING + GAG
Location: Body Shop Studios, 302 Geary Ave, Toronto
4PM ANIMAL PARTY –
We hosted Animal Party for a live session in the Safe Sounds bank vault (watch the live video) and we can't wait to feel the energy they bring to the Art Crawl.
5PM FORMING
The independent artistic product of Danny Alexander (Not a Band, Secret Sign) and Darryn Doull (formerly Ellen Bolthe, Kobra Kobra). The project stems from the serendipitous coming together of parallel electronic instrumentation explorations and is framed by the gritty residue of youth spent amongst the winds and rivers of Chemical Valley.
6PM GAG
If you want to learn more about GAG, words won't do any good, you just gotta come to the show.
We look forward to seeing your bobbing heads and smiling faces. For updates of to tell us you're coming, go to the Facebook Event page.
