They Made Me Do It –
Premiere:
The Sunken Sea – Bones And String
Following on from brooding alt-rock ballad ‘Blame’, The Sunken Sea have backed it up in a big way with ‘Bones and String’, another anthemic jazz-infused art-rock slowburner that sounds like no one else on earth.
Track by Track:
JIM ALXNDR –
Retro Future Love Sound Machine
JIM ALXNDR’s debut record Retro Future Love Sound Machine is a wild, emotionally-charged rollercoaster, and now that it’s almost one week old, we got the man behind it to take us through each of the tracks.

Premiere:
Interstellar Gator – Stress Free Consultancy
Today we have the honour of debuting ‘Stress Free Consultancy’, a burst of groove-heavy indie and a rollicking first taste of the dark psych rock that is to come from Melbourne newcomers Interstellar Gator.

Video Premiere:
Oscar Lush – Pheasant Country
Today we’ve got the pleasure of premiering the brand new clip from folk-storyteller Oscar Lush – ‘Pheasant Country’ is a dark and haunting slow-burner that shines a light on Oscar’s hypnotic baritone vocals and masterful lyricism.
Premiere:
David M. Western – Gallery
‘Gallery’, the second single from Melbourne’s alt-folk rising-star David M. Western, is a cunningly written serving of nostalgic folk-rock that has us all kinds of excited for what he’s got in store for the rest of the year.
Premiere:
Wilding –
Speed King of the Commonwealth
Written as an ode to “the joy of riding a mobility scooter with wilful abandon”, guitar-pop specialist Wilding’s latest effort ‘Speed King of the Commonwealth’ is a pocket-sized, pop-rock belter that’ll be double parking itself in your head for the rest of the weekend.
Premiere:
Eugénie – Little Bit in Love
‘Little Bit in Love’, the debut single from French-Australian dream pop mastermind Eugénie is a hypnotising, life-affirming slowburner that you’ll have fallen a lot in love with once it’s finished wrapping itself around your heart.
