Learn About the 'World News' Remixers from In The Room

Time flies when you're having fun.

It's now been a whole week since we released 💐 In The Room 💐 [SS124], a World News single so hot... okay, you get the picture.

The single arrives alongside a bunch of remixes that go hard, exploring the sonic space of World News.

But who are Eschaton Crises, MOONBEAN, Personal Data, A.G. Murtagh and Josh Korody? People, for sure. Unique people in this people-centric existence.

Some of them are more peopley than others.

Eschaton Crises

Eschaton Crises - World News Remix

Eschaton Crises (London, UK) is the final event in the divine plan, a socio-historical circumstance.

Emanating from somewhere ye olde London (UK) this musical anomaly, when perceived, is often a harbinger of breakbeats, acid-rave, and the damned rowdy.

Known in the underground as an organizer of DJ-focused community events, Eschaton Crises brings the party to the end of the world and back.

MOONBEAN

MOOBEAN World News Remix

MOONBEAN (Toronto, CA) is a queer, Ontario-based electronic duo who lace their live, synth hardware sets with lush vocals.

Their experimental synth-pop weaves in psychedelia, acid-house, techno, and disco, while their performance style gives off punk energy.

Their musical inspirations align with Little Dragon, Peaches, Metric and Eurythmics. In the past 2 years, they released their debut EP and played festivals around Ontario, Germany, and toured Europe twice.

Listen to MOONBEAN.

Personal Data

Personal Data World News Remix

Personal Data (Hamilton, CA) is a dude who makes beats and twists knobs to weave an ever-evolving musical landscape.

You may know him better as a founding father of WORLD NEWS.

Personal Data is a deep listener of electronic music who combines his love with an often improvised approach, using an arsenal of synths, drum machines, modular and whatever else he can get his hands on.

A.G. Murtagh

A.G. Murtagh World News Remix

Asher Gould-Murtagh (Montreal, CA) is a musician, producer and mix engineer who has worked with artists such as Born Ruffians, Mother Tongues and Kali Horse.

Asher G.M. has seen his work released on labels such as Sub Pop, Yep Roc, Telephone Explosion, Safe Sounds, and many more.

Asher is currently based out of Studio Toute Garnie in Montreal’s Mile End, a fully-equipped recording and mixing space operated by members of the Montreal trio BRAIDS, and built by producer / engineer Damian Taylor (Björk, The Prodigy, Lido Pimienta).

Josh Korody

Josh Korody World News Remix

Josh Korody is a multi-instrumentalist, producer and mixing engineer who has worked on a plethora of award-winning records with award-winning artists.

Korody can be found running the electronic label, Nodding Heads.

A man of many talents, Korody also fronts Breeze, which is a 90s inspired group that has released multi-albums via HDD and performed sessions with the likes of KEXP and ourselves.

He also produced and mastered the single for In The Room.

Oh jeez, is that really the time?

World News Crash Land with New Single ~ In The Room

We've been waiting patiently and the day is finally here.

Hardware electronic duo – World News – have just released their first single of 2024, accompanied by a set of remixes so hot, you'll need to bathe in dry ice to cool yourself down.

It's steamy. It's sexy. It's a little confused. And it's all IN THE ROOM.

In The Room was recorded by World News at Safe Sounds, produced and mastered by Josh Korody.

Qu Mi and Bill Cutbill have been writing, recording and performing World News since January 2022, following the exile of Tyler Cooksley (more on that later).

This marks the first official release from the duo ~ though they have put out a couple of strictly limited edition GOLD tapes that have since flown the nest.

Well today, In The Room [SS124] arrives in style as a single with hard-hitting remixes from international artists including Eschaton Crises (LONDON, UK), MOONBEAN (TORONTO, CA), Personal Data (HAMILTON, CA), Asher Gould-Murtagh (MONTREAL, CA) and Josh Korody (TORONTO, CA).

You can listen to the whole thing on Spotify, iTunes, bandcamp or your preferred music platform. Trust me baby, it's free.

What's more, there's a music video coming soon, directed by previous collaborator, Danny Alexander. Alexander known for the pandemic documentary about the Toronto scene, No Tickets At The Door. Anyhow, we won't keep you waiting for too long I promise... subscribe here to be notified when it hits.

You can support Safe Sounds and its artists by listening to all of our releases on your preferred streaming platform, liking and re-listening. You can purchase directly from World News on their bandcamp, if you want to.

But there's no pressure at all. More importantly, we hope that this release reaches your ears and washes over you in a way that you enjoy and keeps your wanting more.

Stay tuned.

World News Love Themselves As Much As They Love You

Toronto electronic hardware duo, World News have just announced two shows. That's right, they're scheduled to flood Toronto's Handlebar and Sarnia's Maud's Variety with cavernous synthesized sound in just a few weeks.

Not only that, but there's a plethora of incredible talent performing alongside them... and perhaps more importantly there is a hardware focus with all the acts. Get ready for big saws, envelopes, knob twiddling and spooky vocals all around.

TORONTO: Saturday January 21st 2023
w/ MOONBEAN and Erin Corbett

SARNIA: Friday January 27th 2023
w/ GUCC

Erin Corbett is a non-binary experimental musician that makes incredible decomposing and abstract electronic soundscapes with infectious stuttering grooves.

MOONBEAN is a queer Toronto-based artist, just back from an epic European tour! Led by Katy, expect a glittering hardware performance with big hooks and melodies, but watch out for the dancing caped crusader.

GUCC are Sarnia's premier synth and electronic group, making fun and funky, often humorous music. Who knows, perhaps Bill will be there to sing a little wrestling dittie for the first time ever (check here if this tickles your fancy)?

And then of course, there's World News. What can we say about those guys... the picture below says it all. This will be the second show with all new music, all new synthesizers, and an all new lineup.
