World News premiere "HYPE" and announce debut album "ON STEROIDS"

World News (AKA World News 808909) are holding a premiere party today, Tues 12th August, at Houndstooth in Toronto for the new single – HYPE!

The music video was filmed on the Rideau Canal Skateway in Ottawa at tempratures lower than -30° and stars professional figure skater Ava Smale.

It's a vision from award-winning writer and director Brennan Martin who worked closely with World News to bring the video to life. Brennan has worked with the group previously, including the incredible Descenending music video.

Toronto electronic music duo World News (AKA World News 808909) combine influences of house, techno, ambient and alternative music. HYPE is the first music released from their upcoming debut album – ON STEROIDS.

ON STEROIDS [SS130] marks the 30th release from Safe Sounds and we're delighted to inform you that this will be a multi-format release including a limited edition run of Pink Lichen coloured vinyl, which are now available for preorder. The record will be released digitally September 25th 2025... but the records will ship sooner.

WORLD NEWS LIVE AT HOUNDSTOOTH

WORLD NEWS are back in Toronto with a FREE Wednesday bonanza. Support from CATQ.

The electronic hardware duo will be showcasing a variety of new material for the first time ever. Expect racks of synthesizers, drum machines and hardware... it'll be a pulsating intensity the like of which, your Wednesdays will have rarely seen.

It's also Cat's birthday so get here early and join in the festivities.

Save the date... April 26th on Resident Advisor or Facebook.

Bill Cutbill Performing Live, In Public, This Weekend!

It still feels odd to be saying this, but this weekend, Bill Cutbill and the Schmoozy Lighters will be performing AMAZONAS live, in public, in person, at Houndstooth on College Street, Toronto.

YES. This Sunday 4th July, Houndstooth is holding the Tropi-Americana Extravaganza day event from 1pm-8pm.

"What is that?" I hear you rejoice?!

Well, it runs from 1-8pm. Bill Cutbill and the Schmoozy Lighters (Quentin Mitchell & Idious Carrie) will perform two different sets at approximately 4/5 or 5/6 pm. There will be an interval between the two halves, kinda like a swanky theatre performance, just without the red velvet curtains.

What else is happening as part of this wonder event?

ULTRA will be holding a pop-up selling all kinds of awesome goodies!

Collective Arts sponsored BBQ will keep your bellies full!

Hot dog eating contest hosted by Steve Goodtime.

Vinyl will be spun by Plastic Fantastic... and there's a party w/ love supreme.

Come out and bring the weather/good vibes with you. We all need it and Bill and the Schmoozies can't wait to perform for you.

Also, we're gonna be shouting about this more, but at the event you'll get a chance to pre-order AMAZONAS on vinyl... yes, AMAZONAS is coming to vinyl. If you choose to pre-order there are some exclusive goodies for you and free delivery within Toronto, so yeah, come down and commit to the bit.

PEACE xx
