New house track created to give exactly the same feeling as winning at bingo

DJ Fish56octagon teamed up with Mecca Bingo to create the house music track, which has been engineered to recreate the excitement of winning every time you hit play
Bingo beats are the latest craze hitting the club scene, as DJ Fish56octagon teams up with Mecca Bingo to launch a new house track that pulses with the real-life heartbeat of a bingo winner. The new track titled 'FULL HOUSE' embodies the rush of triumph in bingo, syncing to a heart-thumping 128 beats per minute – matching the winner's excitement at bingo victory.
Expect a whirlwind of tension-building rhythms and peaks of elation, echoing the nail-biting moments of scoring a full house, all rolled into this distinctive tune. With atmospheric layers of bass that mimic the heightened pulse of winning and the sound of clinking glasses bringing celebration vibes, this song aims to encapsulate the bingo buzz.

Available now on Soundcloud, 'FULL HOUSE' takes you on a musical journey through the euphoric shouts of "house" intertwined with rhythm driven bingo calls for the ultimate dance floor filler.

Known for his wildly popular home DJ sessions wrapped in a dressing gown, Fish56octagon has garnered a loyal fanbase of over a million online followers with his viral house mixes. In his own words: "Innovation is everything in music - you've got to keep surprising people, and blending the tension of bingo with the classic build and drop of house felt like the perfect crossover."
Seeking to replicate the electrifying moment of nailing that winning number, he added: "I wanted to capture that electrifying moment when the numbers are dabbed off and you know you've won - it's a proper rush, and that's what this track is all about.
"House music thrives on that feeling of anticipation and release, and so does bingo - it's all about the buzz before the drop, or the call that matches your final number."We hope this track brings that same energy, whether you're on the dancefloor, dabbing numbers, or soaking up the summer sunshine.''"We hope this track brings that same energy, whether you're on the dancefloor, dabbing numbers, or soaking up the summer sunshine.''
Professor Dan Augustine, medical director at Sports Cardiology, who analysed the heart rate data used to design the track, explained: "We often associate a racing heart with physical exertion, but our experiment shows that the excitement, anticipation and tense nature of a bingo game can trigger the same response."
"We hope this track brings that same energy, whether you're on the dancefloor, dabbing numbers, or soaking up the summer sunshine.''"A game of bingo can activate a 'fight or flight' mode - which releases adrenaline and raises heart rate, even in the absence of movement. As a result, in that 'full house', winning moment, our lucky player's heart rate surged by a whopping 33 per cent - reaching 128 BPM.''

A survey commissioned by Mecca Bingo involving 2,000 adults revealed that 28% of people experience a shift in their music taste during the summer. With 41% leaning towards feel-good anthems and 25% craving high-energy, upbeat tunes that match the sunny vibe.
It appears that house music is the preferred genre for 23% of 18-34 year olds – and of those, as many as 76% say it gives them a 'winning feeling', like something brilliant is just around the corner. While more than a third (34%) of young fans of house music turn up the volume when doing chores.
Almost four out of 10 (39%) claim it's the perfect music to boost their gym sessions, while for 29%, it's the ideal accompaniment when cooking up a storm in the kitchen. Moreover, one-fifth (21%) revealed that a great house track leaves them feeling invincible.
According to a spokesperson from Mecca Bingo: "The biggest moment in bingo is undoubtedly when players shout "House!'' to claim a big jackpot prize, so we wanted to capture that winning feeling in a dance track. By combining two classics - bingo and house music - we've created something that celebrates the thrill of the win in an entirely new way."

Candace Cameron Bure says she's still a bulimic as she opens up about eating disorder that began when she was 18

Candace Cameron Bure has revealed that she's still battling eating disorder that started when she was a teenager. The 49-year-old actress admitted she still considers herself to be bulimic during the most recent episode of her eponymous podcast. The episode, called, Why Can't I Feel Free in My Body?, explored body image and insecurities, with Candace talking about how being on TV at a young age affected her confidence. Talking to her guest, author Lisa Whittle, Candace said: 'The thoughts never leave me.' 'I, too, developed an eating disorder, when I was 18,' Candace said after Lisa talked about anorexia. 'It was binging and purging. I'm a bulimic. And I still say I'm a bulimic.' She explained that while she was not actively purging, she was still battling the disorder 'because the thoughts - whether I'm doing that or not - they never leave me.' Candace added: 'So I still need the tools to just say, "No, Candace, we're not doing that".' Candace spoke about how her parents' efforts to prevent her from developing bad eating habits while growing up in the spotlight backfired. She rose to fame at just 11-years-old while starring as DJ Tanner on the late 80s sitcom Full House. They 'did the best job in protecting me,' the former child star said of her mother and father, adding that they 'were really afraid' of her weight potentially being criticized by producers. She went on: 'I had cheeks and I had thicker arms and I was, like, a normal 12-year-old, you know? I really was a normal 12-year-old, but I had a little bit more fat on me than other kids on TV. They were just fearful that I would develop an eating disorder, just because of all of the pressures.' Candace said her family shifted to a health-centered lifestyle, encouraging her: 'Let's make sure we make good choices with food.' She went on: 'Everyone in my house was always on a diet. My mom was always on a diet. My sisters were always on a diet. I was always put on a diet. But it wasn't like, "Oh, you have to lose weight".' Although the attention to health and exercise was 'preventative,' it 'completely shaped my viewpoint that I had about myself and the feelings about my body', she said, adding: 'I'm on TV... and I don't want to be too fat compared to other actors. 'My parents never wanted a producer to come up to me and say, like, "We need your child to lose weight," so let's do everything preventative.' Career: Candace rose to fame at just 11-years-old while starring as DJ Tanner on the 90s sitcom Full House Consequences: Candace said her parents' efforts to prevent her from developing disordered eating habits while growing up in the spotlight backfired (pictured with Bob Saget in 1987) Looking back, Candace said: 'That very thing just shaped the way I looked at my body, which was like, "Oh, it's not good enough the way it is right now". 'That that kind of started young,' she said, adding that it continued 'through my teenage years.' Now, she says she feels like a 'broken record'. 'I'm 49-years-old and I'm like, why do I think about this so much? Why does it even matter so much? It's so ridiculous. And yet I'm still thinking about it,' she concluded.

‘I've long struggled with my identity in pop': Ethel Cain on fandom, first loves, and being inspired by David Lynch

Something strange happened to Hayden Anhedönia in January. The 27-year-old artist known professionally as Ethel Cain was finishing off her upcoming album Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You when she had to go to court. 'I got into some traffic trouble,' she says coyly in her soft southern lilt. The plan was to drive from the courthouse in her home city of Tallahassee, Florida, to Toronto to wrap the album with her longtime collaborator Matthew Tomasi. 'Listen,' she continues, leaning forward into her webcam – a glint behind the eyes, conspiratorial tone in the voice. 'I don't know what happened in that courthouse, but I walked out of there having been put on probation. I couldn't go to Canada. I couldn't go anywhere.' As a result, Tomasi flew down to Tallahassee. They holed up in Anhedönia's tiny home studio and didn't leave until it was done. When they weren't working, they watched Twin Peaks for the first time. 'Every day it was wake up, work, Twin Peaks, work, Twin Peaks, work …' They binged the whole thing in two weeks. Anhedönia even hunted down the synths that composer Angelo Badalamenti used on the soundtrack and sprinkled them on a few of her own tracks. One night they finished working, watched the final episode, and went to bed. She woke up to the news that David Lynch had passed away. 'I was really happy that I finished the show while he was still alive,' she says. The synths 'felt kind of like an homage. A way to keep David and Angelo and Laura [Palmer] alive in some small way.' Lynch's work stages epic battles between darkness and light, pitting the purity of the individual against the corruption of the world; small-town life versus primordial forces of evil. The same battle plays out on Willoughby Tucker, which tells the story of what Anhedönia describes as 'a deeply traumatised love story between two kids who are in love, but the world weighs on them'. It's also present in her debut album, 2022's Preacher's Daughter, a southern gothic tale of a teenage girl named Ethel Cain who flees the confines of her religious upbringing only to be murdered and cannibalised by her boyfriend. The grisly subject matter made for unlikely breakthrough material, but Preacher's Daughter ended up becoming one of 2022's most critically lauded pop breakouts. In the space of a few months, Anhedönia jumped from collaborating with niche SoundCloud rappers to being featured in Forbes' 30 Under 30 and fronting campaigns for Givenchy, Marc Jacobs and Miu Miu. When Preacher's Daughter was rereleased on vinyl this April, it broke into the Top 10 in the UK, Australia, the Netherlands and the US, where Anhedönia made history as the first publicly trans musician to reach the Top 10 of the Billboard albums chart. As far as ascents to fame go, Anhedönia's was a baptism of fire. She has attracted the kind of invasive, obsessive fandom typically reserved for A-list pop stars. Owing to her sharp cultural commentary and eviscerating political takes – in a viral post after Trump's election, she wrote 'If you voted for Trump, I hope that peace never finds you' – her social media accounts are routinely trawled for 'problematic' content, and her criticism of the US healthcare system has been discussed on Fox News. Speaking to the Guardian in July 2023, Anhedönia expressed a desire 'to have a much smaller fanbase'. 'I've long struggled with my identity in pop,' she reasons now. 'I love pop music, but my issue for a while was the way fandoms operate.' Having seen the violence and trauma of Preacher's Daughter spun into flippant memes, she had feared that any future release would be similarly received. 'I've since made my peace with that. At the end of the day, you make what you make and you put it out and people can do what they want with it.' A recent firestorm over screenshots of things posted when she was 19, however, shows how merciless the spotlight can be. A slew of comments, including the use of racial slurs and rape jokes, were dug up from a 'shameful' period during which she tried to be as 'inflammatory and controversial as possible', as she phrased it in a lengthy apology. 'That was my account and those were my words', she wrote, adding that she was now 'truly sorry from the bottom of my heart'. But she hit back at further online speculation that she was 'pedophile, a zoophile, or a porn-addicted incest fetishist'. She had been, she wrote, the target of a 'transphobic/otherwise targeted smear campaign' that had also led to her personal accounts being hacked and family doxed and harrassed. Anhedönia holds several positions that can be hard to reconcile. She's a trans woman who grew up in the conservative southern Baptist community in the Florida panhandle, and still has a deep love affair with the area. She looks like one of the ethereal sisters from The Virgin Suicides, and talks like a girl next door refilling your coffee at a roadside diner, peppering her musings on existentialism and Eraserhead with homely expressions of geez and whatnot. She has experienced sexual trauma and assault, while her music often leans – in her words – 'into sadomasochism' and 'the taboo'. Those nuances are often not acknowledged. 'A lot of people don't know how to interface with media that contains negativity or perversion or sexuality or immorality,' she says. 'It's not the first instinct to engage with these things critically – but when you see a bad character on screen, the movie shouldn't hold your hand and say: Hey, that's the bad guy. That's your job.' In January, Anhedönia released Perverts – an experimental departure from Preacher's Daughter, let alone standard pop fare. Billed as a standalone project, the hour-and-a-half sprawl of ambient, drone and slowcore compositions roots around themes of shame, guilt and pleasure. There are no hooks, no choruses and barely any lyrics. Rather, its unsettling blend of industrial murmurs and desolate spoken word reflects Anhedönia's experience of wandering 'the Great Dark' – her term for a brief but 'scary' winter when she was struggling to adjust to life after coming off tour. Some listeners found it a challenging listen; others considered its references to madness and masturbation alienating. But it successfully reasserted the wide spectrum of Anhedönia's music, which switches from soaring heartland pop-rock to sprawling abstract noise. 'Now that the other end of the Ethel Cain spectrum has been established, I feel like I have a full range,' Anhedönia says.

Beginning in the summer of 1986, it finds Ethel Cain as an insecure teenager 'trying to navigate her first love in a broken world and a broken town'. It wasn't the plan to go back in time. Anhedönia intended to move forward, on to more 'mature' things, but something kept nagging at her. 'That Ethel's entire story began with the love that she had for this boy … It felt like it needed telling. And come hell or high water, it was going to get told. It was practically seeping out of me.' Finishing the album was 'honestly really sad, especially knowing where Preacher's Daughter goes. Sometimes it's hard for me to listen to. I tell myself it's all fictional, but sometimes I'll catch a lyric and it'll resonate exactly with how I'm feeling. And I remember that it's coming from me.' Part of the difficulty in making Willoughby Tucker was the fact that Anhedönia had, at 27, recently entered into her first ever relationship. As she worked on this album, all her own 16-year-old anxieties came back. 'Love was always my final frontier,' she says. 'I never explored it. I never processed anything. I never progressed past the idea of love that I had as a teenager.' There were times when she was crying every day, begging for the album to be finished. She's glad of the process now. 'I see Ethel Cain as a piece of me that I separate from myself and discard, so that I can make good decisions in life,' she says. 'If Preacher's Daughter was my learning experience of what not to do with trauma and healing, Willoughby Tucker has been my experience of what not to do in love.' In the real world, bleak as it is, Anhedönia is determined to live well. Smiling between two long curtains of mousey brown hair, she reels off a list of reasons to get up in the morning: 'A great breakfast, a beautiful sunrise, paying for someone's groceries if they can't.' And then there is love – in her view the most 'high-risk, high-reward' feeling in the world. A few days before we speak, she 'hard launched' her new relationship, sharing a video of her new boyfriend lifting her up on a truck parked on a dirt road, and kissing her. 'Ethel Cain lived and died loving and praying to be loved back,' Anhedönia says. 'The entire Preacher's trilogy is centred around love. Love lost, love gained, love perverted, love stolen. Love is everything to us. It doesn't matter what you love or who you love, but that you love something – and that love is what propels you forward every day. For better or worse, I think that is a beautiful thing.' Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You is released on 8 August.

Candace Cameron Bure makes shock admission about 'eating disorder struggle' that began 30 years ago

Candace Cameron Bure has revealed that she continues to struggle with an eating disorder that started when she was a teenager. This week, on her eponymous podcast, the 49-year-old actress admitted she still considers herself to be bulimic. 'The thoughts never leave me,' she confessed in conversation with her guest, author Lisa Whittle. The episode, title Why Can't I Feel Free in My Body?, explored body image and insecurities, with the former Full House star discussing how being on TV at a young age affected her confidence. 'I, too, developed an eating disorder, when I was 18,' Bure shared after Whittle talked about anorexia. 'It was binging and purging. I'm a bulimic. And I still say I'm a bulimic.' She explained that while she's not actively purging, she is still battling the disorder 'because the thoughts — whether I'm doing that or not — they never leave me.' 'So I still need the tools to just say, "No, Candace, we're not doing that,"' she vulnerably told listeners. Bure spoke about how her parents' efforts to prevent her from developing disordered eating habits while growing up in the spotlight backfired. She rose to fame at just 11-years-old while starring as DJ Tanner on the late 80s sitcom Full House.
