New Wave British band, B-Movie took over the club scene with their 1982
hit single "Nowhere Girl." They followed with that with their debut
album "Forever Running," which failed to make the same statement as
their hit single. B-Movie broke up shortly after their tour to support
the album. They reunited to record their comeback album "The Age Of
Illusion," which spawned a successful tour. Their latest album "Climate
Of Fear" features ten new tracks that remind us of how good B-Movie was
in their heyday. Beginning with "Another False Dawn," their new music
showcases all of their individual experiences since breaking up in the
mid-eighties. They rework Scott McKenzie's sixties anthem "San
Francisco" into a keyboard-heavy, corporate-driven song about money,
before picking the tempo up with the modern, post-punk appeal of
"Corridors." They showcase their classic eighties pop sound with
"Climate Of Fear," before going dark with the rhythmic synthesizer of
"Feeling Gothic." The new album closes with four brand-new remixes of
their hit single "Nowhere Girl." To find out more about B-Movie and

U.K. songwriter/vocalist Martin Birke recently released his latest
collaboration under the moniker Genre Peak. The new album titled "Your
Sleekest Engine" features his work alongside Steve Jansen (Japan/David
Sylvian), Jon Hassell (Brian Eno/Peter Gabriel), Richard Barbieri
(Japan/Porcupine Tree) and Matt Malley (Counting Crows). The new
nine-song release begins with the atmospheric, prog-rock feel of
"Nightfalls" with lyrics and vocals by Lesley Braden. Birke incorporates
a dance beat into "Denzen Darklight," before slowing the tempo down for
the spacey, soundscape of "Metanoa." Birke plays around with the
rhythms of "American Civil Rage," before the pounding of "Fix Me
Deeper," featuring spoken word vocals from Manal Deeb. The album closes
with the addictive, electronic pop beats of "The Waiting Station" as
Charlie Woodward (Falco) delivers the vocals. To find out more about
Genre Peak and his lastest release "Your Sleekest Engine," please visit genrepeak.net.
