Release Notes:
Few stories take 10 years to tell and this one is
just beginning
In a world where dime a dozen electro-music bedroom
producers fill the expanding blogosphere of the
Internet and flavour of month DIY indie rockers,
the reigning stars of this post-iTunes music
industry disappear sooner than their sophomore
releases; it is hard to imagine anyone sticking
around for more than 10 years. But Winnipeg-born,
Montreal-school'd, Toronto-based Canadian Bryce
Kushnier has been doing just that, exploring the
many faces of his critically-acclaimed
vitaminsforyou project for more than a decade.
Garnering world-wide attention through the release
of his two award winning albums 'I'm sorry for ever
and for always' (2003) and 'The Legend of Bird's
Hill÷ (2006), as well as highly sought after
limited EP (2004), Kushnier's vitaminsforyou toured
the world alongside similarly forward-thinking
artists playing shows and making festival
appearances throughout North & South America and
Europe. With taste-making publications from USA to
Germany and from Japan back to Canada such as the
Wire, De:bug, Stylus, XLR8R, Grooves, Afterhours,
and Spin all singing his praises, he was rewarded
in the spring of 2007 with the prestigious Song of
the Year Qwartz Pro/Art Electronic Music Award for
The Legend of Bird's Hill's standout single, The
Ukranians.
While it has been less than three years since his
last full-length vitaminsforyou album, Kushnier has
nevertheless been very busy in the studio and on
the road with other artists. His recent credits
include work with Constellation records' Do Make
Say Think & Lullabye Arkestra; Mitchell Akiyama's
Dusormais and Avia Gardner projects; production for
Montreal's Hexes and Ohs, Emm Gryner, Fritz Helder
and The Phantoms and collaborations with Mike
Feuerstack (Wooden Stars, Belle Orchestre, Kepler &
Snailhouse), Belgians aMute and appearing on the
GRAMMY NOMINATED (2009) album by Mexico's biggest
electronic export The Nortec Collective; as well as
original music for television, film, commercials
and contemporary dance.
Having spent a good deal of his time this past year
spinning records in clubs around the world,
remixing other artists and breaking in his new live
band to enthusiastic party hungry crowds,
vitaminsforyou's highly anticipated third
full-length release he closed his eyes . . . so he
could dance with you promises to expand on his
recent dance floor interests while continuing with
his dynamic and melodic trademark touches.
