As a publicist in New York City from 2009 to 2017 I worked at independent firms, Tell All Your Friends and Motormouth Media, and in-house at labels, Mute Records and Captured Tracks/Omnian Music Group. My clients spanned genres, from left-leaning electronic to electro-pop and indie-folk. Below are highlights of some of my more notable clients/campaigns.
I’m still occasionally do some PR campaigns.
Actress, AZD [Ninja Tune, 2017]
“Actress, the recording alias of Darren Cunningham, brings a deeply twisted nostalgia to the techno and house of decades past. His new album, “AZD,” uses vintage - sounding samples, beats and timbres in tracks that seem to be dissolving into bleary memories, eroding on the spot. They’re mixed inside - out, so the rhythm section is a subdued pulse while stray tones leap out of a thick haze.” - New York Times
Bicep, Bicep [Ninja Tune, 2017]
“ Known for exquisite live sets that revive forgotten strains of house, garage, ambient and disco without an ounce of predictability, they're leading a new wave of eclectic electronic music that prizes curatorial taste above all else.” - NPR
Dâm-Funk, Invite the Light [Stones Throw, 2015]
“unmistakably new and unique, and it'll make you thankful that we get to live in a world where funk exists.” -Pitchfork
Floating Points, Elaenia [Luaka Bop, 2015]
'“It comes across as thoughtful and curious, not a patchwork but a progression, calmly but purposefully tracing the way one sound or pattern suggests another and then another: a perpetual search, still unresolved as the album ends.” - New York Times
Jacques Greene, Feel Infinite [LuckyMe, 2017]
“celebrates the beauty of human connections with its gently pulsing techno beat and soft, synthesized vocals buzzing in the air.” - NYLON
Junior Boys, Big Black Coat [City Slang, 2016]
“hangs with the genre’s best, riffing on Caribou’s subdued, nocturnal beats and How to Dress Well’s forlorn crooning.” – Entertainment Weekly
Oneohtrix Point Never, Garden of Delete [Warp, 2016]
“When you spend time away from the internet, diving back in can feel like choosing to submerse yourself in raw sewage. Garden of Delete asserts t here’s something worthwhile about surrendering to the sludge.” - The Verge
Oneohtrix Point Never, Good Time OST [Warp, 2017]
“... a relentless, driving cacophony that yields only in the film’s final moments, giving way to slow piano chords and the voice - of - god growl of Iggy Pop, talk - singing about love and death” - Vogue
Patrick Cowley, School Daze Re-Issue [Dark Entries, 2013]
“Patrick Cowley is the disco equivalent of a Jimi Hendrix or a Janis Joplin — an electronic-music trailblazer who died while his records were packing dance floors and setting trends.” - NPR
Princess Nokia, 1992 Deluxe [Rough Trade, 2017]
“one of the most fascinating new forces in music because of how she strikes a balance between high - minded concepts, social specificity, and the playfulness that only hip - hop can afford.” - The Atlantic
Starchild & the New Romantic, Language [Ghostly International, 2018]
“a lovelorn lament of Prince - like proportions, crushed with velvety vox and swirls of lo - fi synth elements.” - Okayplayer
Wild Nothing, Life of Pause [Captured Tracks, 2016]
“The record dips into R&B, psych-pop, jazz, you name it — immaculately arranged with a level of care and composition reserved for composers, not singer - songwriters.” - New York Observer
