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.

It Cuts Like Any Knife You Ever Knew

Theo Vandenhoff arrives on the scene today with the unstoppable post-punk single, Heartache Is An Empty Room. Listen to Theo's silky tones on your preferred platform here. Remember to tell all of your friends, children and their children's children about it. Shout, shout, let it all out.

The single is taken from the EP of the same name which will arrive to Safe Sounds via shiny cassette on April 2nd 2021. Heartache Is An Empty Room was produced by Jay Merrow of Twin Rains, who you may remember from the epic World News remix.

Also, watch out for the next issue of Ultra Mag for the latest Safe Sounds column, which has been dedicated to your new favourite artist... yep, you guessed it... THEO VANDENHOFF.

Artwork for the EP is by Theo's better half, Isabel Glasgow.

Theo Vandenhoff's Heartache Is An Empty Room will be available on strictly limited cassette from April 2nd 2021. Get in touch with us @safesoundscollective to pre-order your copy today.
