'Chemical Rush' is nominated for the Dance Work of the Year 2011

In a former incarnation, Brian McFadden was part of the million selling Irish pop sensation Westlife.  "Chemical Rush" is the second single released from McFadden's third solo album, Wall Of Soundz. The track came in at Number 26 on the end of year Top 50 Dance Singles of 2010 and Number 36 on the Top 50 Australian Singles of 2010.

The album began life as a side-project cooked up when McFadden met American songwriter/producer Rob Conley, the secret weapon behind hits for Darren Hayes and Axle Whitehead. Conley’s specialty is synthesized soundscapes, dance beats and electro pop and he soon had McFadden leaving his acoustic guitar at home as they met in the middle of their respective talents to create their new direction.

“I’d never considered working like that before,” McFadden says. “In the old days it was always sit down with a guitar, work out the chord, sing some melodies. On Wall of Soundz only one song, “Mr Alien”, started from being written on acoustic guitar, the rest we’d sit down with synths and work out beats or loops and build the song up from there.”

For a man best known for tender ballads and acoustic-driven love songs it was a musical revelation.  After tip-toeing into the electronic genre with the hit “Twisted”,Wall of Soundz sees Brian McFadden pushing new personal and musical boundaries. While he’s dabbled in production in the past, it’s also the first time McFadden has shared a producer’s credit.

McFadden has a few friends along for the ride. First single “Just Say So” features US star Kevin Rudolf. The song debuted at Number 1 on the ARIA singles chart and stayed there for three weeks and has achieved Platinum sales status in Australia. The track was also nominated for Most Popular Australian Single at the 2010 ARIAs.  “Not Now” is a collaboration with up and coming Australian band Amy Meredith – another act Conley is producing. Amy Meredith frontman Christian Lo Russo shares vocals with McFadden – his first male duet since Bryan Adams, while Amy Meredith’s Joel Christian also co-wrote the track.

From the catchy and autotune heavy Chemical Rush (“I’ve done enough live shows that people know I can sing, it’s just an effect make the vocal a sound not a voice”) to the haunting “Mr Alien”, the album also features its own ``mini-symphony” with “When You Coming Home”.

Brian Wishes Delta Goodrem Well in New Romance, Shoots New Music Videos

BRIAN McFadden has wished ex-fiancee Delta Goodrem all the best with her new romantic life.
McFadden said the singer, 26, told him she was going on a date with 18-year-old Nick Jonas before they were photographed in Los Angeles last week.
“It’s fine, you see it (the photo) and accept it for what it is,” McFadden said yesterday. “If I didn’t like it I would have said something or cracked it on Twitter.”
McFadden has also dismissed rumours Goodrem dumped him – saying they had simply grown apart after seven years.
“I’m a hothead, if I was dumped everyone would have known about it,” he said, adding that he’s ready to look for a new relationship.
“I’m definitely ready to go out on dates, I just haven’t got time. Most of my time is spent with the boys.”
McFadden spent yesterday in Brisbane filming two videos for his double-A side single Come Party and That’s How Life Goes, released next month.
