Released just in time for the prime of summer, "Brand New" is the Kites With Lights tune that initially caught the attention of 24 Hour Service Station general manager Marshall Dickson. "When I first heard the opening chords of this song, a blend of America's 'Ventura Highway' and New Order's 'Regret' I was captivated. 'Brand New' is so full of feel good energy, it is my perfect start to every day!" Polished by Kites With Lights maestro Jonah Cordy into a bright, shiny "brand new" mix of the original recording, we are truly proud to finally share this electro pop gem with the deserving ears of the world.

To get ready for the U.S. Open, 24 Hour Service Station distributed string quartet Brooklyn Rider is tightening its strings. The quartet will be performing at the U.S. Open in Queens in September. Violinist Johnny Gandelsman says they’re already working on their set.
"We play music from all over the world and the U.S. Open is such a representation of that. We might think of a set that kind of represents us and the U.S. Open together. We might play some Swiss music for Roger [Federer]," says Gandelsman.
While Roger Federer may need some help with his game, these musicians have played together for years and play like champions. They’ve just released their new album called "Dominant Curve." It takes on Debussy’s String Quartet in G minor plus several new compositions.
