Exciting New Pop Music Brand POPTRONIK announces mediterranean Pop Music Festival in Sitges, Spain

A meeting of the minds brought together established pop music blog EQ Music (www.EQmusicblog.com) and burgeoning new London record label Aztec Records (www.aztecrecords.com) to form POPTRONIK - a new pop music brand dedicated to the advancement of credible electronic pop artists and new music discovery.

Kicking off what is sure to be an explosive 2012 for Poptronik, the brand today announces the worldwide digital release of “This Beat Is Poptronik - Volume One” which features 32 of the most exciting new names in pop music including Bright Light Bright Light, Simon Curtis, Van Go Lion, Garçon Garçon, Queen Of Hearts, SIRPAUL, Rebekkamaria, Woman E, Johnny Lazer, Nina, Electrovamp, Monti Montanez, Parralox, Bim and Wolfette.

Curated by EQ Music and highlighting some of the incredible new talent signed to Aztec Records, “This Beat Is Poptronik - Volume One” brings together a collective family of artists that believe in the ethos of the new music industry and have made considerable strides in getting their music in the hands of fans from around the globe through the use of social media, music blogs and the internet.

"As a new pop music brand, we couldn't be more excited to be working with these amazing new artists who all prove that there is more to pop than the top 40 airwaves and big machinery of the music industry. Each and every one our Poptronik artists bring a plethora of creativity and drive that will not only shake up your Now Music playlists, but also open your eyes and ears to just how good quality, independent pop music can be. It’s all about expanding your horizons a little bit further than what is normally promoted by major labels.” – says Raj Rudolph of EQ Music.

In conjunction with “This Beat Is Poptronik - Volume One”, the brand will also be announcing the Poptronik Festival that will take place in thriving holiday destination, Sitges, Spain on September 1st and 2nd. Sponsored by Gaydar Radio and UK Music Jobs, The Poptronik Festival will host 10,000 people over the weekend and take over the entire city, celebrating the music of Poptronik artists mixed with established headline talent including Kazaky, Monarchy and the return of Martika.
