Julian Shah-Tayler – Secret
Julian Shah-Tayler has just released the video for his single titled ‘Secret’. Already a solid song in its own right, the video perfectly compliments the song with brisk and styled imagery that visually keeps the beat and punctuates the rhythm and perfectly compliments the song properly.
I have to be honest, while this song and video really makes me want to break my quarantine and go out and have a good time, it also gives me the energy that I needed to keep me strong because now I feel like I am out or, at least, having a good time. Thank you Julian.
ABOUT JULIAN SHAH-TAYLER
Julian Shah-Tayler, aka The Singularity, from Leeds, England currently living in LA, is back with the video for his latest single “Secret” released July 17, 2020. Shah-Tayler explained, “This is a song about heading out into the night of clubs and celebration. Forgetting all of our troubles and tripping the light fantastic as nightlife starts to flourish again…I’ve got this feeling in my bones that we are never going home.”
“Secret” was filmed by Alex Tovar in Barstow haunted railway stop. It was written, produced, and performed by Shah-Tayler and recorded in Los Angeles, CA. Additional production by Robert Margouleff (Depeche Mode, Devo, Stevie Wonder).

ShapeShiftingAliens – Showing My Face
ShapeShiftingAliens is a Swedish duo, consisting of Niklas Rundquist and J.P Cleve on vocals. Together they create music and unusual and eccentric videos. Their inventive approach appealed to Nolan Cook of The Residents, leading them to collaborate with one another on ‘Shadows’, the final track from their 2017 eponymous album.
Rundquist and Cleve met when they were both working with Iodine Jupiter. Cleve is a producer and composer, live musician and studio musician (guitar) for artists and film, as well as touring and performing. Inspired by various film music composers and especially horror films, their music has also been influenced by the likes of David Bowie, Lou Reed, Goldfrapp, Air, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, and Massive Attack.
In the early 80s, Rundquist participated on Lustans Lakejer‘s first record and performed with The Leather Nun. Since then he has been composing music for films, documentaries and commercials (i.e. the vignette for Sandrew Metronome) and has created music for Cirkus Cirkör, Iodine Jupiter, and various artists on the London scene. Today, Rundquist is once again part of The Leather Nun (on violin) and stands behind Brainshadow.
ShapeShiftingAliens signed to Swedish indie label The Sublunar Society in 2016. Since that time, they have released three singles – ‘Just a Boy’, ‘Stay’ and ‘Cut To The Bone’ – followed by their full-length ‘ShapeShiftingAliens’ LP.
The Sublunar Society is a record label and publishing company, founded by Marie Lundvall and Peder Bjoerk in 2013. Sublunar releases music and publishes literature for the international and national markets. The company also produces exclusive limited edition art products for collectors. The guiding spirit behind The Sublunar Society is one of artistic freedom and creative exploration beyond the conventional.
The ‘Showing My Face’ single is now available across online stores and streaming platforms, as well as through The Sublunar Society’s own Bandcamp.

First Aid Kit – Live from The Palace Theater 1/30/2018
With head-banging, strobe lights, and electric guitar solos, First Aid Kit brought a new energy to the Palace Theatre in January.
Sisters Johanna and Klara Söderberg just released their fourth album, ‘Ruins.’ The album features songs that fit the texture we’ve come to expect from First Aid Kit — folksy sounds with beautiful harmonies — as well as expanding the group’s palette to include a harder-rocking sound.
