The New Division - The Making of Hidden Memories (Interview)

Description: Shot & edited by: Brad A. Kinnan Produced by: DYNMC CREATIVE (http://dynmc.co/) Hidden Memories - Double LP Order starting 1.10.2020 Get it here: http://bit.ly/2FLzrtX Amazon: https://amzn.to/2Mrdgiv Google Play: http://bit.ly/2EU2Ba6 Apple Music: https://apple.co/2Wntqya Spotify: http://bit.ly/2gbqZoq Soundcloud: soundcloud.com/thenewdivision http://newdivisionmusic.com http://facebook.com/thenewdivision http://twitter.com/thenewdivision http://youtube.com/user/thenewdivision Bio: Spearheaded by John Kunkel (lead vocals/producer/songwriter). The New Division is an LA-based tour de force. Influenced by a mix of new wave, progressive house, and techno, Kunkel has taken the tastiest slices of these genres and blended them into The New Division's signature sound. With a sound that feels comfortably connected to the past but with a momentum that fastens them to the future, at its core The New Division's custom blend of electronic adds tugging lyrics to each track, bringing satisfying emotion to the party. In early 2011, Kunkel felt they had 6 songs right and put out the highly acclaimed EP, The Rookie. It wasn't long after that he felt they had enough material for a full length, and in late 2011, The New Division released Shadows. This album generated a huge buzz. As more people put their ears to it, Shadows continued to climb up charts all across the US as well as internationally. Several music publications named the LP a top album of 2011. Now in 2019, The New Division is gearing up to release its fourth LP, "Hidden Memories" - Kunkel's most ambitious effort to date. Featuring 10 tracks ranging from dark and brooding to emotive and uplifting, "Hidden Memories" was produced and recorded in Los Angeles, CA. Pulsating with bruising basslines, dance-infused drums, and decked out atmospheric vocals, "Hidden Memories" serves as an homage to the music that has inspired Kunkel for the past decade. "I wanted Hidden Memories to be a blend of what I felt were the best parts of my early years as The New Division, a return to form of sorts," Kunkel says. "I picked up where I left off, back when I was listening to a lot of dance records ranging from progressive, trance, early new wave, and synthpop. The blend of all those sounds is what I envisioned for 'Hidden Memories.'" Longtime collaborator and co-producer F.J. DeSanto (Trade Secrets), also assisted on the record, "F.J.'s been a part of each album since "Together We Shine," and has always been a guiding force for TND," Kunkel said. "I tend to lose focus quite easily. I generally like everything I end up writing, but he understands what works from an outsider's perspective which I think is crucial from an objective standpoint." Accompanied by a group of live musicians, including Alex Gonzales (Drums), James Meays (Guitars), Danny Corrales (Bass), and Michael Janz (Keys) - Kunkel and his mates have embarked on multiple US tours, with several dates in both South America and Europe.

De Santo I took my medicine The voices won't stop My shadow's caving in My feet won't walk My watered, teary eyes My lips are unsealed My hollow, empty skin I'm losing my mind He’s reaching uncontrolled He’s reaching outside I’m waking down the halls To somewhere I’d die I tried to walk the lines To regain control But every single time I lose it all They said don’t go outside --------------------------------------------------- Bio Spearheaded by John Kunkel (vox/producer).

The New Division - Jealous (Official Music Video)

Description: Directed by: Brad Bischoff Production Company: Club Paradise, LLC Produced by: Brad Bischoff, Alex Hidalgo Director of Photography: Taylor Russ 1st AC: Joe Ashi Locations: Mirella Olivera Colorist: Casey Bohrnell Shot on location in Ventura, CA Special Thanks (From Director): Elena Kunkel My neighbor Dennis Ryan Hutchison J.A. Ken at the Hong Kong Inn The Olivera Clan Sarah Wielusz And Cinema Cypher for hooking us up with free lights & a fogger! ------------------------------------------ Video concept/background: After hearing “Shadows” on Pandora, Brad reached out to John via e- mail back in 2016. The two began a correspondence and eventually the right idea with the right track came to fruition on “Jealous.” Inspired by the photography of Gregory Crewdson & Philip-Lorca diCorcia, vintage Ventura, and life in the suburbs... “Jealous” portraits the falling apart of a man in the aftermath of a relationship. Often times one can feel stuck in rumination, which carries with it a very lonely, isolated side effect. The film balances two approaches... the static study of isolation contrasted with a dizzying handheld series of intimacy. By all means, the character in the film is stuck by his own doing, with the drinking throughout serving as a metaphor of escapism. Until a change arises,he will remain in limbo. At times this depression can feel like a “performance,” as well, which is why we wanted to give him a microphone throughout. We decided to end on a string of hope, beachside on the Ocean as he puts the microphone down at last... perhaps a change on the horizon. The film was lensed by local DP Taylor Russ and was produced by Brad Bischoff & Alex Hidalgo of Club Paradise, LLC. Director Bio: BRAD BISCHOFF BIO Recently named one of the "25 New Faces of Independent Film" of 2018 by Filmmaker Magazine, Brad is an award-winning director who’s work has been screened in major film festivals, staff-picked on The Atlantic, Vimeo, Short of the Week, and YouTube.

His award-winning short film, Where the Buffalo Roam, was voted one of the best short films of the year by Vimeo in 2013 and won “Best Drama” on Kentucker Audley’s NoBudge. His latest “Field Song” was picked up by The Atlantic, Vimeo, Short of the Week, and Aeon.
