Adam Gibson –
The Songs of Adam Gibson

To celebrate the release of The Songs of Adam Gibson, a new compilation from Coolin’ By Sound that memorialises the work of one of Australia’s finest, yet most under-appreciated songwriters, we had the Sydney wordsmith walk us through the album and reflect on each highlight from his sprawling 20+ year history.

Premiere:
Trace Decay – Photobooth

Today we have the pleasure of premiering indie-pop rock duo Trace Decay’s new single ‘Photobooth’ before its official release tomorrow, and it’s a heart stirring, ethereal experience to listen to. In celebration of this fan-favourite track, we had a chat to the band about the life and times of Trace Decay.

Chapter Music have just announced Midnight Meditations, a masterful collection of contemplative, late-night downbeat and ambient sounds to guide us through our introspective battlefields. Before the compilation fully drops this Friday, we’ve been given a listen to Melbourne-via-Wellington megastar Sarah Mary Chadwick’s offering, the visceral and enthralling ‘Sit Down and Pour’.

Premiere:
The Slingers – Satin Coffin

Track by Track:
Bananagun –
The True Story of Bananagun

Akin to a warm hug, Bananagun’s debut album The True Story of Banangun is a record that screams with relaxed mindfulness; a soul-searcher laden with afrobeat precision. A few days on from its release, bandleader Nick Van Bakel has carried us downstream and provided his insights on the album track by track.

Our Two Skins
A Chat with Gordi

Gordi has just released her sophomore record Our Two Skins, a shedding of armour in an exposed examination of identity, purpose and love. We had the pleasure of speaking to Gordi about the record, her past several years as a musician, and her words of wisdom for emerging artists.

Video Premiere:
Astronaughty – Changing Hands

Today we’ve got the pleasure of premiering the debut single and clip from emerging party-starters Astronaughty – ‘Changing Hands’ is a futuristic indie-rock belter that’ll transport you out of wintery Melbourne and get you in the mood for a boogie in the sun.

Premiere:
Moth – Jealousy

Ahead of the release of their debut 7” EP next Friday via Marthouse Records, emerging weirdos Moth have treated us to a sneak preview of ‘Jealousy’, another cut of their haphazard noise-punk.
