Charli XCX reveals details of her Vroom Vroom label
PRESS RELEASE:
Pop phenomenon, Charli XCX, is delighted to announce details of her brand new Vroom Vroom EP, which will be released through her all-new record label Vroom Vroom Recordings today – a subsidiary of Atlantic Records UK and marks another milestone in the starlet’s career. To celebrate the new venture, Charli has released two of her favourite tracks of the moment from brand new acts RIVRS and CuckooLander.
Charli XCX has toured globe over the past couple of years to mark the release of her critically acclaimed second studio album Sucker (over 850,000 global album sales to date), which featured the Australian double platinum single Boom Clap and the platinum Break The Rules. Having recently penned Selena Gomez’s US #1 Same Old Love, the Billboard ‘Hitmaker of the Year’ (2014) and Sesac ‘Songwriter of the Year’ (2013) has worked with electronic/synth-pop producer SOPHIE on the new EP venture.
Charli says, “I’ve worked with SOPHIE on the new EP and what we create together speaks for itself. Sometimes we get aggressive, sometimes we get beautiful; he pushes me and I push him. I’m making beautiful party songs right now and this is just the start. The album goes to other places and I can’t wait for people to hear it. I feel the most creative I have in a long time and I couldn’t be more excited for the next chapter.”
The Vroom Vroom EP showcases her prowess for producing musical gold and was recorded in Stockholm last year. At the end of 2015, Charli unveiled the now lead track, which went onto receive a wealth of chatter across the Internet with its thrumming beats and noisy composition. To coincide with this exciting news, Charli has been confirmed tohost her own Beats 1 radio show starting on Friday 26th February at 8pm UK time –the shows will take place every fortnight.
“Vroom Vroom Recordings is my new, experimental pop label and it will combine my love for bubble-gum pop with mystery and darkness. The artists coming up through it will be sharp, potent, deadly, and ultimately, will leave their mark on pop music. RIVRS and CuckooLander are two artists who have so much intelligence, pop sensibility and potential – they know what they want and both have great vision. That inspires me and it’s why I want to work with them. I’ve always been fascinated by shy and introvert people – it’s something that I am mostly not – and I feel both acts are in ways. It captivates me and sucks me in, and I think their music will do the same for others”, Charli adds.
