W Hotels Worldwide's newest music initiative, W Records, recently released two singles featuring Matador recording artist, Perfume Genius. Now you can watch a behind-the-scenes short documentary on the making of the two tracks, "Not For Me," and "Alan (rework)." All W Hotels proceeds from the streaming of Perfume Genius' exclusive tracks with W Records benefit Immigration Equality, the nation's leading LGBTQ immigrant rights organization. Immigration Equality was hand-picked by Perfume Genius as his charity of choice. The organization represents and advocates for people from around the world fleeing violence, abuse and persecution because of their sexual orientation, gender identity or HIV status.
W Records is a record label and resource for artists selected by W Hotels and their music industry partners. From recording to release, W Records supports artists through every step of development, providing recording space, video shoot locations, mixing and mastering and finally, distribution of the new sound via live performances, streaming and vinyl production. Tracks for W Records are recorded, naturally, in W Sound Suites (the brand's signature, on-site recording studios) with four rising artists stepping up to the mic over the next year. Tracks from each artist will be released through W Records both digitally and via limited edition runs of vinyl which will be gifted to tastemakers, DJs and W fans as a throwback way to enjoy new/next music.
