The Italians Do It Better record company have released a new 20 song album of Madonna covers which is a dedication and celebration of the iconic superstar. Executive produced by label head Johnny Jewel, the LP features contributions by Desire, Glüme, Joon, and Jorja Chalmers, just to name a few.
Chromatics have shared a video for their latest single 'Teacher', which is taken from their upcoming LP 'Dear Tommy'. Directed by Johnny Jewel, the visuals feature close-ups of singer Ruth Radelet with polarized effects, as well as clips of a little girl, which seem to represent the transition from child to adult, as well as the student learning from life.
Having shared the visuals to their single 'You're No Good' last month, Chromatics waste no time with dropping a new video, this one for their track 'Move A Mountain'. Taken from their latest LP 'Closer To Grey', the video itself features a stylishly dressed Ruth Radelet looking elegant as ever whilst filmed in a classic cinematic manner with collage effects, something that has been a part of the Chromatics brand. 'Move A Mountain' is directed by Johnny Jewel.
Parisian duo Double Mixte bring their French chich to the Italians Do It Better imprint. What would be considered a perfect match between the artists and the label, the group's EP plays more like a film soundtrack. Consisting of three vocal tracks and an instrumental to accompany each song, 'Romance Noire' is steamy, dark, emotive and sexy all in one sitting. The title of the new work couldn't be more fitting. Produced by Johnny Jewel, the EP is another addition to the label's already impeccable discography.
Italians Do It Better label boss and Chromatics member Johnny Jewel unveils another stylish video, this time for the single 'Spiral Staircase'. Directed by Radka Leitmeritz, the black and white vid was shot at the Grand Hotel Evropa in Prague and stars the model Eva Klimkova. Sultry and sexy, the cinematic video has an air of classicism in the best way possible.
Aside from Chromatics recently releasing their new 'Black Walls' video, band member, producer and label owner Johnny Jewel dropped his new album 'Themes For Television' out of nowhere. If that isn't enough, he's also shared a new video titled 'Red Door' which is featured on the LP. Directed By Radka Leitmeritz, the stylish black and white shot vid, which looks like a cross between a fashion short, French new wave and 50s film noir, stars Eva Klimkova. Topping out at just under 2 minutes in length, we just wish the video was a tad bit longer. Have a look.
