[WATCH] Astari Nite // "Unfulfilled Promise"







Astari Nite is proud to show to the world their video for the song “Unfulfilled Promise." The track, is included in the band’s most recent album 'Midnight Conversations' album on Cleopatra Records.  and produced by Tom Shear (Assemblage 23). 


The video, directed by Ileana Escalante & Louis Molden of Blind Beast, features Astari Nite’s trademark aesthetic, haunting and melancholic, blended with surrealistic scenarios that tap into the psyche of someone who is confronting their demons, and dealing with the aftermath of loss and death. 

"Sadness and depression comes in many shades and colors. If you can see it, stop and take the time to help. Smiling at someone, or a simple hello, can save a life." 
–Mychael.


 

The video, and the message it contains, comes at a time when the social spotlight is on the topics of depression and suicide, with several beloved musicians and iconic performers having taken their own lives in the last couple of years, it brings to light how many of the people we know and love in our daily lives deal with the despair that drives one to become destructive. Too often do we become aware after it is too late, after they are gone.

[VIDEO PREMIERE] Black Plastic | "Sertraline"





Los Angeles – LA-based Cleopatra Records releases the self-titled debut album by New York's Black Plastic on Friday, April 15. One of Cleopatra's newest signees, Black Plastic is the musical project of visual artist Kevin Grady, with production by artist/producer AndrĂ© Obin, whose track "The Arsonist" was featured on Cleopatra’s recent "Occult Box" compilation.

Dark, moody and mostly electronic, Black Plastic give a modern, danceable twist to the dark wave genre. "It's club music for vampires," says Grady. "In spirit it has a connection to DIY synthpop and punk, in that I don't consider myself a musician as such. I'm an art director, and this is an art-directed album. It's not real. That's why I called it Black Plastic."

Grady is perhaps best known as the founder of Lemon, an award-winning pop art magazine with a broad cult following. Lavishly produced and designed, the magazine has hosted a range of impressive contributors, including David Bowie, Daft Punk, Jeff Koons, Sonic Youth and many others.

Black Plastic will will play showcases in NY and LA later this spring and early summer.
