SINGLE REVIEW: Natasha Bedingfield – Kick It
Now, this is a comeback everyone should be talking about. Not only were ‘These Words’, ‘Unwritten’ and ‘Pocketful Of Sunshine’ anthems in their own right, they’ve also stood the test of time with them still being played on radio and playlisted in movies and TV shows a-like. It’s been nine years in-between albums…
SINGLE REVIEW: LPX – Global Warming
Sometimes you need to be reminded to not give up, to keep going even though everything else around is telling you to stop. We all need the extra motivation to find that inner strength within us and LPX is embracing that by creating an anthem that is all about encouraging the underdogs. ‘Global Warming’ is…
SINGLE REVIEW: GRYFFIN feat. Carly Rae Jepsen – OMG
I just assume every Carly Rae Jepsen song is going to be a hit, and when it’s not I get really disappointed. And sometimes I even take it personally because I feel like she can do more and she is instead holding back on us. Maybe the world isn’t ready for the pop brilliance she…
SINGLE REVIEW: HAIM – Summer Girl
The return of HAIM was a return I was very excited about. Their sophomore album ‘Something To Tell You’ was an under-appreciated affair of groovy hooks and slick harmonies. With the continuation of their career and artistic progression, I was intrigued to see where they would melodically take their sound to next. But ‘Summer Girl’…
SINGLE REVIEW: Noah Cyrus – July
Noah Cyrus is all about releasing music with a deep meaning. Music that may not be commercially friendly but has a genuine heart behind it. The material has a lot of emotion and it resonates with the broken hearted in a compassionate and empathetic way. Well, that’s my take on the singer-songwriters honest and simplistic…
SINGLE REVIEW: Client Liaison – The Real Thing
Bringing it back to be ALL about the music, Client Liaison are kicking off the new chapter of their career with a nostalgic track full of positivity. ‘The Real Thing’ is a song that was born into the world with an 80’s aesthetic that deserves to be embraced. The production is the perfect amount of…
SINGLE REVIEW: Woodes – How Long I’d Wait
Finding herself lost within daydreaming of what an alternate world could look like, Woodes reflects on always searching for alternate freedoms from her current situations. After extensively touring Australia with the likes of Asgier, City Calm Down, BORNS as well as multiple runs of headlining shows and festival appearances, Woodes is ready to start the…
SINGLE REVIEW: Taylor Henderson – Moving On
After being dropped by his label, Taylor Henderson decided to focus on what mattered most; playing shows and interacting with his fans. While touring Australia and reacquainting himself with audiences with an acoustic show of fan favourites and an exclusive premiere of some new songs, he reminded people of the storyteller he is. One of…
SINGLE REVIEW: Alessia Cara – Ready
It’s officially summer in the US and to celebrate the season of road trips, beach days and fresh air, Alessia Cara has released a new single and announced a new tour and EP appropriately titled ‘This Summer’. However ‘Ready’ isn’t your typical “summer anthem”. It’s a relaxed track with a slight groove that would soundtrack…
