SINGLE REVIEW: Charli XCX – Boys

It’s been 9 months since Charli XCX dropped her last pop single so I understandably started questioning when we were going to hear the follow up to “After The Afterparty”. But you can stop stressing because it’s finally here in all it’s shiny glory. “Boys” is the pop song you never realised that you needed…

ALBUM REVIEW: Lana Del Rey – Lust For Life

Newsflash; Lana Del Rey is still boring. The songstress has just released her fourth major record label album and it’s become evident that she’s never going to release anything as epic as “Born To Die” or as melodramatic as “Ultraviolence”. But it doesn’t mean that she’s not going to try. “Honeymoon” was an absolute flop…

EP REVIEW: Chase Atlantic – Part 3

Australian exports Chase Atlantic are currently killing it in Los Angeles at the moment. They’ve just released Part 3 of their debut album after signing with Warner Bros Records and being mentored by The Madden Brothers. The third EP sees them going towards a more RNB influenced sound while still holding onto those The 1975…

SINGLE REVIEW: Olivia O’Brien – RIP

You may recognise the name Olivia O’Brien from one of your favourite songs of 2016. The 17 year old songstress featured on Gnash’s smash hit “I Hate You, I Love You” which topped the charts in Australia and broke the Top 10 in the US and UK. However she has a new solo song that…

SINGLE REVIEW: Dani Robert – Clouds

Canadian singer-songwriter Dani Robert has just released her debut single and its one that’s worth discovering. “Clouds” is an intimate pop-edm ballad that explores the human connection and challenges yourself to start speaking from your heart. Her vocals have this raw delivery which showcases the pure emotion behind the lyrics before the EDM beat drops…

SINGLE REVIEW: Liz Lokre – Buh Bye

Canadian newcomer Liz Lokre has dropped her follow up single to her Caribbean flavoured debut “Rise Up”. For “Buh Bye” the songstress has adapted a sultry RNB sound that channels the vibe Ariana Grande perfected on her last record “Dangerous Woman”. The song opens with a distinctive gritty guitar that is levelled by airy synths…

SINGLE REVIEW: Louis Tomlinson feat. Bebe Rexha – Back To You

Whoever told Louis that it was a good idea to let Bebe Rexha start the song should be fired. Why would you let a feature artist overtake the song? Because that is exactly what happened. Her vocals are stronger, more prominent and more memorable. But even she couldn’t save the song. “Back To You” is…

ALBUM REVIEW: Vera Blue – Perennial 

I think we are all aware how difficult and confusing break ups can be. It’s a time of anger, heartbreak, relief and mourning that unleashes a vulnerability that is hard to describe and replicate. However Australian songstress Vera Blue has been able to capture this raw process perfectly on her emotional debut album. “Perennial” is…

SINGLE REVIEW: Vance Joy – Lay It On Me

The inclusion of Vance Joy on the Splendour In The Grass line up didn’t really make sense because there was no word on new music and he had been touring the same record for the past three years. Being a week out from the festival everyone was still confused as to why he was performing…

SINGLE REVIEW: Billie Eilish – Watch

I may be three weeks late on this track but I think it’s very important that I post about it. Fifteen year old Billie Eilish is the newcomer you need to be acquainted with. From the moment I heard this song I was entranced and in awe. Everything from the lyrics to the production was…
