When I heard that awful cover of The Suburbs made it into the triple j Hottest 100, I was all like ‘wuh?’ Then I heard this and I was all like ‘woah’. If any electro-pop babes beat this effort in 2012, hats off. I am officially a Little Jeans convert, I look forward to singing [...]

You may remember a certain degree of splooging over a band called So I’m Jo last year on this very blog. aBillion is the rising electronic phoenix to emerge from the dissolution of So I’m Jo, and I’ve been informed by a good chum that there’s brand new material coming very shortly that will shake [...]

!Total Bang0r free zone! A phenomenal group has been bubbling away beneath the surface of Sydney’s folk scene for the past two years. After gigs here, there and everywhere the band have settled down to record a full length release. The first cut is called ‘Wishingbone’, it’s a dense, cinematic slice of gorgeous folk. And [...]

Moby – Destroyed

Moby’s latest sonic endeavour leans in a few directions – classic Moby on one hand, that introverted, radio-friendly electronica we all know and (should) dislike. Poke around in the behind the faux-90′s vocal sampling and there’s some really spirited ambient-pop music nestled in these electronic tales of airport lounges and sleepless hotel nights. Like no [...]

A gorgeous little ditty from Melbourne electronic songstress Foragers. She’s just released a limited run split EP in collaboration with her buddies Leone Western. It’s called Little Love, and you can grab it right now from their Bandcamp Get a free taste of Foragers’ cheeky electro-folk below. It doesn’t grab immediately and at time meanders [...]

A little late to the party – but definitely one for anybody vaguely attracted to the wave of broken dub and glitch scene emerging in Melbourne and Sydney as of late. Mr Goose is a generous soul, producing a bunch of records and dropping them all online for free. What a gent. This one, from [...]

Jumping on the bandwagon early, Yes You appear to have but one song, which you can download below and nought else but a truckload of hype. Gypsy and the Cat without the bombast but still packing plaintive vocals and cheesy string synths. Another worthy contender in 2011 from Brisbane’s surging electronic scene – a scene [...]

This year I’ve been doing some presenting (at obscene hours) for Sydney’s flagship music station FBI. One of the great things I’ve taken away from this is a new found appreciation for the diverse and deep array of electronic music coming out of Sydney and Brisbane at the moment. Collectives – as much as the [...]

rat vs possum
Been meaning to do a post on these guys ever since I worked out I went to school with Daphne from the band, which makes me cooler than thou by association. Rat vs Possum have roamed the country non-stop for several years playing jangly, gang-vocally experimental pop. It’s psychedelic, but not in the scary acid [...]

Having chased these cats around for yay upon 6 months we’ve got a new jam to share from Alpine, Melbourne’s latest hypebeast.. known in a past incarnation as SWISS (without the definite article of that Bubble Bath lot). Too Safe is their latest single. A simple, sunny guitar riff leads into hypnotic pop.. it’s a [...]
