SINGLE REVIEW: Robyn – Missing U

So I’m just going to go ahead and say it. The return of Robyn was a little hyped up. I mean in the past the Swedish singer-songwriter has been a little under-appreciated for her synth bops. But then ‘Dancing On My Own’ kind of went viral and everyone has been patiently waiting to hear what…

SINGLE REVIEW: Zayn feat. Timbaland – Too Much

There’s been no real word as to when Zayn will actually release his sophomore studio album so in the meantime he keeps on dropping intriguing singles instead. The newest track to hit your airwaves is the futuristic ballad ‘Too Much’. For this mediocre track he has teamed up with the the legendary Timbaland and whilst…

SINGLE REVIEW: Tkay Maidza feat. Duckwrth – Flexin

It’s been two years since we have received new solo music from Tkay Maidza and in that time the Adelaide rapper has experimented with her sound, collaborated a lot and has continually grown as an artist. So it’s rightfully so that her new single ‘Flexin’ is sonically quite the departure to her 2016 debut album…

SINGLE REVIEW: Maggie Rogers – Give A Little

We were first introduced to Maggie Rogers in 2016 when Pharrell Williams sat in awe during a mentoring session with her and was rightfully blown away by her raw talent and incredible songwriting. From there the singer-songwriter has circulated massive streaming numbers, released an EP and toured the world. 2018 has seen Rogers re-introduce herself…

SINGLE REVIEW: Charli XCX – Girls Night Out

Charli XCX really has taken this “2018 is going to be year you hear the most new music from me” comment seriously with releasing yet another new single. This time she’s finally released the playful ‘Girls Night Out’ which originally surfaced 2 years ago when an early demo leaked from her ICloud account. But now…

SINGLE REVIEW: Robinson – Don’t Trust Myself

Earlier in the year Robinson dropped the ridiculously catchy ‘Nothing To Regret’ which quickly became one of my favourite songs of 2018. The vivid imagery transported you to her friends lounge room where she was crashing and to the parties where she was drinking and living in an emotional limbo. It was just so honest…

SINGLE REVIEW: The Chainsmokers feat. Emily Warren – Side Effects

2018 has really become the year that The Chainsmokers have started impressing me. They’ve (thankfully) thrown out the generic pop-dance formula they were constantly over-using to get radio airplay and instead have started focusing on lyrics and production. They’ve dived into a darker and more experimental production world which as seen songs like ‘Sick Boy’…

SINGLE REVIEW: Kira – If It Makes You Feel Better

After listening to their debut single I’ve immediately decided that I want to be best friends with Kira and after you listen to it I feel like you’re going to feel the same way too. The London based duo have previously been kicking around in other musical projects but after writing this song together Katie…

SINGLE REVIEW: Mitch James – Can’t Help Myself

Earlier this year Mitch James impressed with his follow up single ’21’ to his viral hits ‘No Fixed Abode’ and ‘All The Ways To Say Goodbye’. The honest track saw the New Zealand singer-songwriter beginning to receive radio airplay and worldwide online traction with it’s very autobiographical storyline. It’s been a hot minute in-between singles…

SINGLE REVIEW: LANY – Thru These Tears

Hailing from Los Angeles California, LANY have left their zip code behind and have taken on the world with their excessively emotional tracks and reflective live show. It’s only been a year since they’ve released their debut self-titled album and they’ve already toured the world twice and are ready to do it again with their…
