WATCH: Scott Quinn – ‘There For You’
With the way that technology and music making work hand-in-hand today, it’s so easy for an artist or producer to start creating and releasing their own compositions. Particularly in a way that showcases their artistry, with the same degree of skill and competency that could only be achieved before in a full fledged studio. The revolution […]
WATCH: Cub Sport – ‘Only Friend’
Airy yet melancholic synth arpeggios open this fantastic track from Brisbane alt-pop group Cub Sport, with the repeated painful title line “you’re my only friend…” ushering in the anthemic chorus. The overall off-kilter and slightly gloomy feeling of the song is an intentional device used to musically articulate the central themes in the lyrics. As […]

Manchester’s Slow Readers Club have always been firm favourites of ours, and they continue to stun with each new release. Taken from their glorious second album ‘Cavalcade’ is new single ‘Plant the Seed’ – a brooding, intense three minutes of anthemic indie-electro. It’s the band at their most innovative.
VIDEO PREMIERE: Burkini Beach – ‘Luxembourg’
Rudi Maier (aka. Burkini Beach) has travelled far, not just in physical terms but in the chronology of his artistic development. He’s already achieved previous musical success with his band, The Dope – an indie-punk 2 piece – it has held him in good stead to go out on his own, and carve his own path with Burkini […]

Big guitars, towering riffs, powerful psychedelic vocals and echoing ambience. Sheffield’s atmospheric rock band Julia have certainly captured our attention with their début single ‘Take and Leave’.
WATCH: Flyte – ‘Closer Together’
Where most bands tend to be overly excessive when it comes to putting their creative visions into motion and creating their visual aesthetic. Flyte insist on exercising restraint and the audio visuals for their new single ‘Closer Together’ is a gleaming example of this. The end product is a charming, nonchalant look into the bands personal […]
WATCH: Harper – ‘Animal’
Harper is a sweet contradiction – her music is both sensual and sensitive but it also hides a darkness that is ready to be uncaged at any time. Not unlike the symbolism encapsulated in the video for her new single ‘Animal’ which see’s a collision between light and dark forces.
WATCH: Jake Morley – ‘Ghostess’
Affectionate, delicate and emotional. Singer/songwriter Jake Morley has unveiled a beautiful new cut from his forthcoming album. ‘Ghostess’ is an acoustic ballad of epic proportions, imbued with a softly strung guitar melody and gently stirring strings.

When I first laid my eyes on the début video from Sydney-based alt-rock quartet Why We Run, I was partly in awe of the stylistically brave optics of the idea and partly surprised that, to my knowledge, no one else in music has ever done this before. When you watch the video, you’ll see why.

Romantic and nostalgic. Tramploene cover new ground with their new track ‘Imagine Something Yesterday’. A brit-pop tinged rock song daydreaming of a better time, yet striving for personal achievement.
