Talking Influences with KIT
Swapping the folk stylings of All Our Exes Live In Texas for driving indie rock, KIT’s debut single ‘Good Guy’ showcases her creativity, genre-crossing talent, and uncrushable spirit – even in the face of a COVID-19 world.
Premiere:
Suneden – Sapana Ko Samaya
Without sounding too much like a Buzzfeed writer, Nepalese/Melbourne duo Suneden have just dropped a thirteen minute long sitar-laden dream-funk odyssey and it’s exactly what my isolation needed right now.

Talking Influences with Shepparton Airplane
To get us in the mood for their third album, Shepparton Airplane have landed at Trouble Juice to talk us through a handful of influences that have inspired the jagged post-punk we’ll be hearing when ‘Sharks’ drops this Friday.
They Made Me Do It –
Talking Influences with Brain Drugs
An incredibly mysterious offering that raises more questions than it leaves answers, and accompanied by an equally disorientating film clip, we set out to demystify the madness of Brain Drugs’ debut single ‘Night Shift (at the Fruit Cannery)’, by talking influences with them.
Premiere: Liam Beven –
(There’s Either Life) Or There’s Hiding
Having spent the last few years balancing his music career between Melbourne dive bars and cruise ships, we’ve finally been able to lock Liam Beven down in the one spot long enough to premiere his enchanting debut single ‘(There’s Either Life) Or There’s Hiding’.
Premiere:
Swaré – Gatsby
Today we’ve been given the great privilege of exclusive access to Swaré’s latest suave-as-hell funk-pop party banger ‘Gatsby’ – your priceless ticket to the most indulgent house party in town.
Premiere:
Sunfruits – Above The Clouds
Expanding on the wonky, hook-laden psych pop that their exciting inaugural year was built around, Sunfruits have hit the decade dancing with their cunningly-written nod to four-to-the-floor 70’s disco, ‘Above The Clouds’.
