HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - Californer -- RM Records (Rafelson Media Records, Inc.) today announced its partnership with Long Island alternative artist Sam Daniels, whose new single and music video "I Don't Give" arrive worldwide on October 30 through RM Records' distribution via Virgin Music Group. Sam keeps ownership of her masters and full creative control.

Produced by Andrea Del Miglio, "I Don't Give" is an alternative song about confronting the hidden sides of yourself, with echoes of Fiona Apple, Linkin Park, Lana Del Rey, Björk and Sade. Sam directed the video herself: a psychological-horror piece in which an alternate reality bleeds into the real one as the main character's alter ego forces its way out. Drawing on the spirit of Troma Entertainment, where she contributed to Curse of the WereDeer, it blends live action, special effects and stop-motion claymation.

"I am so honored to partner with RM Records," said Sam Daniels. "Peter is a true champion of creatives and understands the psyche of an artist. It was important to me to find a place that champions creativity and collaboration, where I can also own my masters."
