Well I’m about to say two things I didn’t think I was ever going to say; the Scissor Sisters are back from hiatus and apparently the word Swerlk has been born. It’s been 5 years since we have received new Scissor Sisters music and it was believed that we probably never would. However they’ve emerged…
SINGLE REVIEW: Starley – Touch Me
Australian pop songstress Starley had quite the debut single. “Call On Me” cracked the top ten charts in Australia, United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, New Zealand as well as taking the number one spot in Sweden thanks to Ryan Riback’s slick remix. She’s now ready to back it up with new single “Touch Me” which sees…
SINGLE REVIEW: Olly Murs feat. Louisa Johnson – Unpredictable
So it’s a fact that Olly Murs didn’t appreciate the review I did on his last album. He blocked me on Twitter almost instantly and honestly that is the sort of petty I aspire to be. But he has refreshed one of the songs off the last album with a guest feature and minus his beef…
SINGLE REVIEW: Golden Vessel feat. Elkkle & Mallrat – Shoulders
If you’ve attended an Australian music festival over the past couple of years then you are probably already well acquainted with Golden Vessel. The alternative producer knows how to deliver you chilled out vibes and some killer beats that would be best prescribed for those 2am drinking sessions. For his new single he teams up…
SINGLE REVIEW: Hanne Leland – You Don’t Own Me
It’s no secret that I love a good synth pop banger and Norwegian songstress Hanne Leland has delivered just that. “You Don’t Own Me” is a pure pop track that explodes with pulsing 80’s inspired synths that is reminiscent of the sound Carly Rae Jepsen has recently perfected. This empowering track looks at never letting…
SINGLE REVIEW: David Guetta feat. Justin Bieber – 2U
Justin Bieber is killing it currently. There’s no denying it except for his questionable live concerts that are flawed with no enthusiasm and those drunken videos of him not knowing the words to “Despacito”. But putting that aside he has a new song with David Guetta and its actually quite good. “2U” is exactly what…
SINGLE REVIEW: Jessica Mauboy – Fallin
Jessica Mauboy is Australia’s leading pop princess (sorry Delta) and we are used to her club ready pop songs that top the charts but she’s always had deep country roots that only surface when she tours. Her newest single “Fallin” sees her circling back to those roots with a soulful doo-woop twist. This sound showcases…
SINGLE REVIEW: Sigala feat. Ella Eyre – Came Here For Love
Ella Eyre’s debut album “Feline” was severely under-appreciated. There’s just something about her powerful and soulful vocals mixed with her intimate storytelling that just instantly stood out to me. Along the way she has released a couple of doozies, which I blame Rudimental and her label for but after taking some time off she’s ready…
SINGLE REVIEW: Lorde – Sober
It’s officially one week until Lorde unleashes her sophomore studio “Melodrama” to the world and to celebrate the announcement of her world tour she has released one more song before the big day. She originally premiered “Sober” at Coachella but the studio version takes the song to new heights. Experimenting with darker synths and a…
SINGLE REVIEW: Kelsea Ballerini – Legends
Country isn’t for everyone, I get that. But recently it has been crossing over to the pop market and increasingly more people are slowly admitting to liking it so if you’re one of those people then I have a new artist for you to fall in love with. 23 year old Kelsea Ballerini impressed with…
