Northern American - Elysian
Working from their Chinatown studio, Northern American record very much as a collective, each member chipping in on every aspect of the writing process, which may go some way to explaining the balanced center and...
Courtney Barnett - Depreston
Depreston conforms to the rule that says Courtney Barnett doesn't know how to deliver a bad lyric, or anything other than the perfect melody to accompany the story.
Francis Leone - Final Dance
Final Dance is a new track from Suffolk-based artist Francis Leone. The most dramatic of three new tracks, it frames Leone's baritone with a swirling chamber pop arrangement.

The Great Dictators - Strange Ways
Strange Ways comes with NSFW and parental warning lyrics and an animated video featuring Vladimir Putin and lead singer Dragut Lugalzagosi. And why not, eh? It starts out all rich vocals and strong bass, and...
Slow Turismo - Corners
Canberra's Slow Turismo are an indie-pop / indie-rock band with an ear for the hook, and if Corners is anything to go by, not afraid to mix it up a bit.

At the start of It's What Happens Next Is What Matters Most, the new single from Life in Film, you might be wondering what's happened to their sweet, skittery indie-pop. Fear not - stick around...
Jason Nolan - Brush Social Club
Brush Social Club features some pretty special interplay between Nolan's looped, echoey vocals, the gentle buzz of the bass, and lush orchestration that makes sporadic, dramatic appearances.
Warpaint - No Way Out
No Way Out is the first in what Warpaint have promised is to be a series of new releases through 2015. No Way Out showcases the quartet's casual knack for a tune and an ability...

Nick Edward Harris - Trying To Be Silent
Trying To Be Silent jabs and weaves, and at some point its storytelling sweep is surely bound to be picked up by a TV network somewhere and used to soundtrack a devastating end of episode...
Public Service Broadcasting - Go!

Lois & The Love - Pinocchio
Pinocchio is taken from the album Love is Louder, due out this summer. It starts off very good, then goes stratospheric with the arrival of its killer chorus. Awesomeness + attitude = Pinocchio.
Lanks - Hold Me Closer
Hold Me Closer is an electro-guitary triumph that somehow seems to gather layers, pace and intensity with every beat, while still retaining a sense of space and a still center.
Meeka Kates - The Waves
While listening to this magnificently chilled track from Meeka Kates just now I lost all sense of time and space, finding myself carried further and further away on each wisp of The Waves.
