There’s no mistaking it, 2017 has been a stellar year for Australian music. We’ve seen Aussies surge forward internationally, while the term ‘household name’ has never been truer for some as this year has rolled out. As we approach the end of 2017, we’ve put together our annual End Of list, representing the 20 Best Australian…

Returning again to cap off what has been another fantastic year of Australian music, the 4th annual AU Awards are announced this afternoon, recognising what this year has brought some of our favourites (emerging and well established).

Today, we’re loving his new film clip for “Leavin’”, one of our favourite…

In the months following the release of Yeo‘s Ganbaru record last year, I felt the Melbourne producer remained criminally slept on; what we had been given was a nigh on flawless collection of songs that put his talent as alt-pop producer and purveyor well on display, as well as giving us an insight into one of the…

“All I wanna do is talk to you for hours,” Yeo croons. It’s a sentiment we’ve all felt. In an age where social media reigns supreme, chances are you’ve spent at least one night glued to your phone scrolling back through the Instagram or Facebook of an ex/crush just to see if they’ve made any new…

Before wrapping up a huge year packed with touring plus the release his latest album, Ganberu, Melbourne singer/producer/writer Yeo has just put out a brand new single, “Frost”. This slinky lil’ number is classic Yeo: layers of textural pop and electronic glitches, bobbing and weaving around the muso’s low-fi vocals that simply glide. Just when you think this is…

London trio HÆLOS have been a favourite act of ours since first clapping eyes on their live show at SXSW this year. Coupling gorgeous melancholy with some brilliant arrangements that instantly bring to mind some Portishead, London Grammar and even Massive Attack, HÆLOS are finally bringing it all out to Australia for the first time at the end of…

Whether they had relocated from…
