WHAT IF OPTIMISTIC NIHILISM WAS A BEACH SONG? SPEELBURG RELEASES “SOMETHING’S WRONG” SINGLE

“Speelburg approaches apocalyptic devastation with breezy melodies and charming wit…Sacré strikes a careful balance between organic and electronic instrumentation, marrying warm strings and honeyed vocals with floating electronic production touches.” - Under The Radar Magazine

“Speelburg’s music is difficult to categorize, as he blends together elements of pop, rock, electronica, and classical music to create a sound that is uniquely his own.” - Independent Music Reviews

“With this refreshing mix of pop and rock, he gives us the chance to explore a world so unique and so exciting to see.” - Wolf in a Suit (on “Game Over”)

“Noah Sacré, who makes “weird pop” (his term) under the name Speelburg, gives off big Beck/Eels vibes on “Game Over,” with violin and cello swelling warmly alongside synth bleeps and guitar.” - Riff Magazine (on “Game Over”)

LISTEN TO “SOMETHING’S WRONG”:  HERE

The UK-based Belgium-American multi-hyphenated creative Speelburg is here to let us know that “Something’s Wrong,” with his new single filled with wobbly guitars and quirky synths that perfectly place the listener into a sunny, sardonic sonic landscape that could be the theme song for a beach blanket romp a la Frankie and Annette, directed by Wes Anderson.

“Something’s Wrong” is the 5th irony-laced single out on Speelburg’s own Sophomore Slump records, cementing his legacy as providing the soundtrack for the end of days, but with a cheery smile and even cheerier melodies.  The song follows  "Game Over,”Invitation,” “Be Yourself”  and “I’m Back,” released earlier this year. 

According to Speelburg, there has never been a better time to lie in the garden and await nuclear annihilation. “The grass is green and DEFCON 2’s sunny rays are beating down pleasantly, tanning every nook and cranny,” says Speelburg. “ We can’t just give the honey back to the bees and still expect them not to be pissed. The oversized bee-arrow is coming for us all. Everyone keeps saying we’re doomed. I was trying to write a ‘We Are The World’-type song to try and trick a bunch of famous people to feature on my record but no one fell for it so it just ended up being me instead.”’ 

It’s not surprising that this song could be the soundtrack to a slow moving satirical film from an artist who spends his time divided between the aural and visual worlds. When not crafting his signature style of sharp witted indie rock, Speelburg spends his days behind a camera, and at a computer animating and crafting videos for artists such as The National and John Legend,  in addition to all the videos for his own songs.  

Speelburg has amassed over 11 million total streams from previous releases, including his 2020 debut full-length album Porsche and most recent single “I’m Back” which was featured in a spot for  Jimmy Kimmel.  Speelburg splits his time between the UK and Los Angeles and has received accolades and support from Noisey, Ones To Watch, The Line of Best Fit, Pigeons & Planes, Clash Magazine, SPIN, American Songwriter, BBC Radio 1, Sirius XM, Los Angeles’ KCRW, Chicago’s WTMX and more. His music has been used by global brands such as FIFA, Samsung, and Google Pixel and featured on FoxSports, MatchOfTheDay, Channel 4 UK, and more. Speelburg is signed to Sony Music Publishing where he has worked with Danny Burke, Adam Lambert, Cautious Clay, Gnash, Ben H Allen, Nat Motte, Brian West, and more.
