At one point, KYGO was actually releasing a continuous string of strong tracks. Songs that stood out in their unique market and had their distinct hooks echoing through your head.

There was something about Swedish singer-songwriter, LOVA which completely captivated me last year. Her vulnerable and honest indie-pop was so simple but effective with her smooth harmonies and infectious melodies about self love and heartbreak.

Yungblud has become a voice for the misunderstood, the “freaks”, the outcasts and he’s okay with it.

The sonical structure of his debut album ‘Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent’ is pretty standard. It contains classic pop ballads layered with…

Conrad Sewell’s debut album has been a long time coming but it’s that same time that has ensured that this release is as authentic as possible. The Brisbane based singer-songwriter made his breakthrough into the industry in 2014 through the Kygo collaboration ‘Firestorm’ and from there he topped the ARIA charts with ‘Start Again’ and…

Floating in dreamy nostalgic synths and 80’s inspired hooks, Carly Rae Jepsen’s fourth studio album ‘Dedicated’ is further proof that she is the pop star we need in the world.
