Have got good! I checked back in on this Melbourne outfit’s Soundcloud and came across two new tracks from a self-titled double A-side released this month. Effortless and gloomy vocal takes, subtle drumming, brooding and uplifting in equal measure – it’s like their (slightly boring) back-catalogue executed with ten times more confidence and clarity. I [...]

Awesome nu Melbourne guy. It’s an electro-soul rave with nice singin’. Like if James Blake was raised in Chinese Laundry rather than private school. Here he is: https://www.facebook.com/GriffonGreen

A new musical endeavour from Melbourne artist Sophie Brous (pronounced Bruce… like, the man Bruce) Electrorashies/ers(?) may note Sophie Brous’ unique tones accompanying the GLOVES remix of Miami Horror’s ‘Sometimes’, a track that made a dent in Google results for handwarmers early last year.

Architecture-In-Helsinki-Moment-Bends
Architecture In Helsinki’s ‘Moment Bends’ is a joyous sojourn into straight-out pop pleasure. It’s fluffy and sweet, and still sounds like six ex-Mattell employees using excess stock to make jams. Contact High has received a few re-rubs, most recently from Clock Opera and Javelin. Architecture In Helsinki- Contact High (Javelin Remix) Tickets are still available [...]

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 [...]
