EP REVIEW: KLP – Ember

KLP has been on my “Artist to watch list” for a little while now. And previously her songs have caught my attention but keeping it was a struggle. However the Sydney singer, songwriter and producer has created a EP that transforms her into a fucking pop star. “Ember” is a collection of songs that floats…

SINGLE REVIEW: Peking Duk feat. Elliphant – Stranger

Electronic music duo Peking Duk had one of the biggest songs of 2014 with their Nicole Millar collaboration “High”. Since then they have experimented with different sounds and delivered the alternative dance smashes “Take Me Over” and “Say My name” both featuring Safia’s lead vocalist but ultimately they have come back to the same pop…

SINGLE REVIEW: Dami Im – Fighting For Love

When Dami Im didn’t win Eurovision this year I don’t think I was the only one who yelled out RIGGED because lets be real, the girl was ROBBED. While it comes as no surprise that “Sound Of Silence” was not my favourite song she’s released and that’s mainly because of the cringe worthy “trying to…

SINGLE REVIEW: Icona Pop – Brightside

Icona Pop are two of my favourite Swedish girls and while their debut album was totally underrated they continue to release bop after bop. Their new single is less brassy as their previous releases and provides a more polished pop sound. “Brightside” may not be your typical Icona Pop single but it still gives you…

ALBUM REVIEW: Lady Gaga – Joanne

Lady Gaga is a forever evolving artist who continues to not only just re-invent herself but also never gives into cliche standards. If you are looking for or wanting a “Bad Romance 2.0” then give up now because you are never going to get one. “Joanne” is Gaga’s fifth studio album and she strips it…

ALBUM REVIEW: Katy Steele – Human

Ever since I first heard that Katy Steele was releasing a solo album I have been very un-chill about my excitement towards this project. “Human” is an album that could have never been released by Little Birdy and that is a great thing. This album perfectly captures who she is as an artist and provides…

ALBUM REVIEW: Sabrina Carpenter – EvOlution

It’s not often that a sophomore album exceeds its predecessor but Sabrina Carpenter has done just that. Okay, maybe that wasn’t so hard because her debut was a cheesy mess that didn’t really allow the listener to get to know her as an artist but “EvOlution” re-writes those wrongs. Giving you sultry, sassy and experimental…

ALBUM REVIEW: The Naked And Famous – Simple Forms

New Zealand indie-electronic outfit The Naked And Famous may have re-located to Los Angeles but they are still holding onto their musical roots with their third studio album. “Simple Forms” holds onto their indie-pop/rock sound but expands on a bigger synth-pop experimentation that “Young Blood” and “Punching In A Dream” established on their debut. Album…

ALBUM REVIEW: JoJo – Mad Love

We have been deprived of a JoJo album for 10 years and that really is an upsetting statistic. Luckily for us though she is back and better than ever. Her third studio album “Mad Love” is an experimental and bold collection of tracks that document her struggles and triumphs making this her most intimate yet….

ALBUM REVIEW: Lisa Mitchell – Warriors

It’s been a couple of years since we’ve heard from Lisa Mitchell and after her sophomore studio album “Bless This Mess” almost went un-noticed I was unsure if we would get to hear this vulnerable voice again. But thankfully she’s been resurrected with the experimental “Warriors”. This album steps away from the comfortable indie-pop and…
