Gazelle Twin Signs To Invada! New Artist Album & New TV Series Score Incoming.

Gazelle Twin - aka composer, producer, singer, and visual artist Elizabeth Bernholz - has announced her signing to Invada Records, for her fourth solo studio album – set for release in late 2023.

According to Invada Records co-founder Geoff Barrow: 'After having the pleasure of releasing two brilliant scores by Elizabeth [Gazelle Twin] we are so incredibly happy to announce that she is signing to the Invada label as an artist. We’ve always loved her whole aesthetic which surrounds her art, so we feel honoured that she’s chosen Invada to release her new Gazelle Twin album.”

Commenting on the new signing, Gazelle Twin says, “I’ve long admired Invada and what they do. Getting to know them over the last few years, seeing how hard they work and how committed they are to the artists they release - as well as their supporters - I know I’ve lucked out big time.”

Invada Records have released two recent Gazelle Twin scores (2020’s Nocturne and 2021’s The Power) and are preparing a release for her new score for Then You Run, Sky Original’s new eight-part drama based on Zoran Drvenkar’s thriller novel, YOU. The darkly comic thriller series, which follows four rebellious London teenagers on a city getaway to Rotterdam, is due to launch on Sky Max and NOW on 7 July 2023. Watch the trailer at the link below.

Meanwhile the forthcoming Gazelle Twin studio album, which follows 2018’s acclaimed album Pastoral (described by Pitchfork as “...belonging to a proud tradition of English satire, plumbing the depths of the nation’s psyche and twisting it to wryly discomforting ends”) will be accompanied by a series of performances, starting on 10 November at London’s Bush Hall – full details below.

The eerie electronic score with haunting vocalizations simmers menacingly throughout and adds another striking dimension to the supernatural horror thriller.

Nocturne is made all the more unsettling by the pulsating, disquieting score by UK electronic artist Gazelle Twin which rattles against the classical compositions the students perform. – Brooklyn Vegan

Lakeshore Records has released the album in the Americas and Invada Records released the album in the rest of the world digitally.

The film written and directed by Zu Quirke and starring Sydney Sweeney, Madison Iseman, Jacques Colimon, and Ivan Shaw is currently streaming on Prime Video.

When a virtuoso music student commits suicide days before an important concert, her death unleashes a supernatural force in Nocturne, an unsettling tale of sibling rivalry set at a prestigious arts academy. Having grown up in the shadow of her more talented twin sister, shy piano student Juliet Lowe (Sydney Sweeney) is used to always being second-best when it comes to music. But when she finds a mysterious notebook that belonged to the school’s recently deceased star soloist, her playing miraculously begins to improve and she soon eclipses her sister Vivian (Madison Iseman) as the academy’s top student. Along with her newfound abilities, however, comes a series of frightening premonitions. As Juliet’s visions grow more nightmarish, she discovers the true cost of achieving artistic perfection.

Says Bernholz of the two featured tracks, “Juliet’s Rage” and “Blood Sport”:

Juliet’s Rage “The director, Zu Quirke wanted there to be a strong appearance of feminine rage featuring heavily in the score, building around the classical pieces. She wanted to use some of my existing tracks ‘Unflesh’ and ‘Belly of the Beast’ in a couple of scenes, so I took leave from the vocal style of ‘Unflesh’, which has a lot of strong chest singing inspired by Bulgarian Folksong. It became a motif that the music editor, Shie Rozow, weaved throughout the film for those especially fierce moments. Then there’s the ‘dread drones’ that haunt the whole score, getting more and more intense.”

Blood Sport: “I loved the line ‘Music is a blood sport’ in the film. Director, Zu Quirke studied violin at a conservatoire, so had first-hand experience of this. She wanted that sense of malignant determination to run through the score, so this is what I came up with. There is always the presence of an evil, dissonant force running through each piece, sort of like the sound of a burning, screaming migraine. Right up my alley.”

Meanwhile, Gazelle Twin has written the track ‘History’ for the video game ‘Cyberpunk 2077’ (out now) and she’s announced her Deep England album collaboration with the electronic drone choir NYX, due out on 19 March next year.

About Gazelle Twin
Composer, musician and producer Elizabeth Bernholz, conceived Gazelle Twin in 2009 as the moniker under which she has since released the critically acclaimed albums; Pastoral (2018), Kingdom Come (2017), Unflesh (2014) and her debut, The Entire City (2011) on her own label, Anti-Ghost Moon Ray.
Her music presents dystopian themes through experimental electronic production and extraordinary live performances which feature changing personas. Unflesh was based around deeply personal themes of teenage anxiety and body dysmorphia, while Kingdom Come, an audio-visual performance piece commissioned in 2016, depicted an imagined English fascist hell-scape inspired by JG Ballard’s final novel. Gazelle Twin’s third studio album, Pastoral, conjured English folkloric traditions with a football mascot twist, made in response to a move to post-Brexit rural England.
In 2019 Gazelle Twin collaborated with Max de Wardener to create a new performance with the BBC Orchestra at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall and later that year Gazelle Twin returned to the same London venue to present Deep England, an ensemble performance made in collaboration with the electronic drone choir, NYX. A Deep England studio album is set to be released in March 2021. - www.gazelletwin.com -
