Bear Machine Records is excited to announce the release of "Missing Film" by indie-folk artist Radical Face. Known for his cinematic and emotional music, Ben Cooper wrote and produced this 12 song collection with film makers in mind, focusing on mood and entirely instrumental arrangements -- a direct contrast to his traditional concept and story-driven albums. He has partnered with Noisetrade to give away the album, and is offering the music to students, young directors and content creators to use for free use in all non-commercial media.

    Thirteen years after the release of Radical Face's Ghost in 2007, Ben Cooper (aka Radical Face) has re-released the album with completely new interpretations of the original tracks.

  • Radical Face Ben Cooper shares his 'Guilt' with GRUNGE CAKE
    Posted At: May 2, 2019 12:00 AM

    A Florida-born multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter named Ben Cooper, known as Radical Face in a musical space, share a new tune called, ‘Guilt'. It's about not being ready-for whatever-although you may think that you are. I used to wonder if all human beings understood and process guilt as others. I know they don't, so it's always interesting to hear someone sing or talk about their experi...

  • Light and airy vocals juxtapose vivacious drums and guitar on Radical Face - Doubt / GRUNGE CAKE
    Posted At: April 14, 2019 12:00 AM

    Outside of it coming across a lot like ‘Every Breath You Take' by the British band The Police, Radical Face's light and airy vocals juxtapose the vivacious drums and guitar, and speaks to the moments in my life when people's roles were no longer clear to me. Watch the super cool music video below. The artist said the following about the making of the visual: This is the most technically and phy...

  • Ben Cooper of Radical Face struggles with stasis in 'Doubt' video / FLOOD MAGAZINE
    Posted At: March 28, 2019 12:00 AM

    Ben Cooper's latest EP as Radical Face is titled Therapy, in large part because speaking with a professional helped to get his career as a musician back on track. Over the eight years Cooper worked on his deeply personal three-part Family Tree series-including The Roots (2011), The Branches (2013), and The Leaves (2016)-the singer-songwriter grew increasingly drained, both creatively and emotionally. In ...

  • Radical Face - Missing Film 'is in the images' / The Indy Review
    Posted At: January 15, 2019 12:00 AM

    Radical Face‘s new album Missing Film is instrumental. The key is in the images it evokes and if those images are pretty. And the music, does it arouse some sort of sentiment? Pianos and strings cultivate this rich soundscape. I found the songs took me to various locales from a walk in overgrown grasses between old oak trees with the breeze brushing the branches together on a summer afternoon (...
