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…
SINGLE REVIEW: Zedd feat. Elley Duhe – Happy Now
Zedd’s singles have been a little hit and miss recently. But after the massive success of ‘The Middle’ and ‘Stay’ everyone’s eyes and ears are on what he’s going to do next. ‘Happy Now” hears him delivering a vibrant indie-pop meets EDM sound that is very radio and chart friendly. It’s a song that grows…
SINGLE REVIEW: Imagine Dragons – Natural
Their third studio album ‘Evolve’ may only be one year old but Imagine Dragons are already delivering you their third post-album single. And I’m still unsure whether this is a great thing or if it’s a little excessive. ’Natural’ hears the Las Vegas pop-rock band continuing their bold sound full of angst, hope and power…

SINGLE REVIEW: Alex The Astronaut – Waste Of Time
It’s been a little while since we have had new music from Alex The Astronaut so what better time to receive a song than right before her massive set at Splendour In The Grass. ‘Waste Of Time’ is an acoustic folk-pop track that continues her vivid storytelling that made her previous two EP’s so memorable….
