George Clanton
Following three years of releasing music as the seminal vaporwave producer Esprit 空想, and vocal-driven pop artist mirror kisses, George Clanton has dropped the alter egos. Clanton’s latest work is built upon the foundation laid by those projects, but further pushes the sound of modern internet-bred genres by adding timeless pop hooks and structure.
In the past year Clanton has gone on to launch his own all-vinyl record label, 100% Electronica - a platform from which George released his debut album of the same title. The album 100% Electronica is George's attempt to combine the Mirror Kisses and ESPRIT 空想 projects into one sound.
Following the release of 100% Electronica, the new project enjoyed a sharp rise in popularity thanks to endorsements from Gorilla Vs Bear, FACT Mag, SPIN, and others. In 2016 George shared the stage with Charlie XCX, Sophie, and Teklife for the Gorilla Vs Bear SXSW Showcase at Hype Hotel; a performance Yahoo Music highlighted, calling George Clanton specifically “the best thing we saw at SXSW all week.”
“Again and again Clanton performs like his life is on the line.” - stereogum
Negative Gemini
Negative Gemini (aka Lindsey French) is an American electronic musician and producer, hailing from Queens, New York who is known for her unique approach to creating music that seems to effortlessly combine elements of mid-90's trance and techno influenced club with the poppy yet ethereal vocal sensibilities of singers like Madonna or Mazzy Star's, Hope Sandoval.
The new album from Negative Gemini, Body Work was released on September 23rd 2016 via 100% Electronica. Since it’s release, ‘Body Work’ has received praise from Tiny Mix Tapes, Skrillex-owned media platform Nest HQ, The 405, Fact mag, and most notably full features with interviews on both Bandcamp Daily and MTV news. The album has become the darling many indie radio stations across the U.S. including WMBR Cambridge, MA & Radio K Minneapolis of whom, in particular, are two of the best and most respected college stations in the country, along with legendary Seattle radio KEXP. ‘Body Work’ was recently named album of the week at Radio K.
"Negative Gemini, makes a genre-spanning blend of ’90s techno and heady modern electronica: a little Chicago, a little Detroit, and a whole lot of Brooklyn. But unlike many of her contemporaries, French conveys her personality and experiences through vocals and lyrics, not just tight production" - NYLON
