Clara May - Hush
Clara May unveiled their new typography-inspired music video featuring the title track from their debut album Hush.
“Hush is a melding of great lyricism and my obsession with typography,” says director Jason Robert Becker of the clip he created for the title song from Chicago duo Clara May’s debut album. “It was really the footage of the band performing that inspired it all. It felt like watching old film of The Velvet Underground.”
Clara May is Tom Silva, a Malaysian-born filmmaker, corporate executive, University of Chicago grad student and writer, and Nicole Sotelo, a Harvard-trained theologian and author, with Phillip Amerson, Chicago producer and leader of hard-rock group, Bitterson. Clara May has dedicated its musical efforts to raising awareness of social issues.
Recorded at Chicago's legendary Rax Trax Studios and mastered by Doug McBride of Gravity Studios (Veruca Salt, The Walkmen), Hush is the debut album by Clara May.
Hush explores themes uncommon in today's indie music world such as identity, racism and ethnic conflicts. As such, Clara May is honored to have you listen to Hush and in keeping with the group's dedication to social consciousness, will dedicate 10% of its profits to charity.

SBTRKT
South London based producer SBTRKT announced his self-titled full-length debut on June 28 via Young Turks.
SBTRKT (pronounced “subtract”) has recently left his imprint on UK music by seamlessly fusing Detroit Techno, Berlin Electro and classic 2-Step into the thriving London Dubstep scene – although this masked man fits comfortably in any category he wishes to occupy. While massively prolific, a minimalist ethos runs through the work and style of SBTRKT, not just in the name but in the precision of the sonics and arrangements. He has done remixes for M.I.A., Modeselektor & Basement Jaxx, and has previously released 2 EPs via Young Turks (Soundboy Shift & Step In Shadows).
While he has had multiple releases in single and EP forms, this is SBTRKT’s first full-length, and about that he says “This release is the culmination of a longer period of constant writing and collaboration, tracks on previous EPs were written as singular pieces. This record is much more of a whole project, more representative of my thoughts and ideas as an artist and each track was completed with the aim to be coherent together.”
