Only a few people are brave enough to channel 80s' MOR Rock to conjure up a hit these day, but Gotye is a force to reckon with. The Australian rocker has embarked on a venture to channel the best sounds of The Police, Phil Collins and Mike + The Mechanics and come up with a unique sound for his new album Making Mirrors . This track is the one making most waves. It's a great number with a hint of lyrical nostalgia. It's a stark ballad that teeters between a sombre ode to lost love to a brighter look [...]

Indie pop outfit San Cisco from Fremantle in sunny Western Australia deliver the follow up to "Golden Revolver." Today's featured track "Awkward" will be the title track on their second EP, to be releasing this month worldwide via their own label Island City. "Awkward" is a kooky call and response, featuring the debut vocals of drummer, Scarlett Stevens. It is a song that captures the stalker in all of us as vocalist. Jordi James calls to Scarlett: "Why do you hold on so tight? What do you feel?" San [...]
After posting a free track to his SoundCloud ("Spoken Word") a couple of weeks ago, Lancelot has just shared a new track taken off his highly awaited debut EP We Can Dance , which drops on February 20th via Binary Label. Once again the Sydney-based artist is giving the song away absolutely for free, so don't be shy, go ahead and download it here . Lancelot - We Can Dance (Frames Remix) The remix comes courtesy of Frames, a young Sydney producer who won the recent Architecture [...]
Australian house music producer Beni gives you a good reason to jump on the electronic music bandwagon.
What does it take to make a brand new day worth waking up for? Not necessarily the promise of great adventure nor the love of a lifetime, though I wouldn't dream of tossing either out of bed. Yesterday is hardly a blur, but on paper, it wouldn't qualify as the most memorable one ever, the greatest one-man show on earth, featuring a very special guest. So what did I get up to on Thursday, February 9, 2012 -- the 40th day of the year -- then? Most notably, after nearly an entire week, I [...]
San Cisco draws you in with their innocent, yet ready to take on life attitude.
Originally hailing from Brisbane, Australia, guitarist Jimi Kritzler made some interweb rounds last year with his outfit Slug Guts after releasing the LP Howlin' Gang via Brooklyn's Sacred Bones . Since then, Jimi has formed the duo White Hex together with Tara Green, before both relocated to Berlin for an indefinite time. With their crisp and ice-cold, post-punk informed guitar employment and the massive, prominent rhythm section, the outfit's output so far is actually not too far away from that of Jimi's main band, and with Tara's distant, heavily reverberated vocals, White Hex [...]

Albatross - Murder It's been a long time coming, but Life Aquatic Records has just announced it's second release. It's hard to believe the last was over a year ago . In true LA Records fashion, this release is from Oz's own Albatross . Albatross is a slow burning producer duo, never too hasty to release their sound. Which makes this double a-side 7" release all the more tasty. Here is a-side Murder, [...]
Amazing remix of Gotye's Eyes Wide Open by Alien Delon. I saw this at Gotye's Soundcloud . Gotye is Wally De Backer of Mornington Peninsula, Australia. He's a sick producer/musician and if you have time, I highly recommend checking out his workflow video, here .
This is one of those moments where you've never heard of the band, nor the remixer - it's not because im some music snob... it's more so because there's just so much damn music out there! As far as the interwebs tells us, the Jubilants are a Sydney 'prancy' outfit consisting of 4 dudes including a guy named Ardie (dope name man) with Salad being of the Melbourne variant. The lata, Salad has turned the original track "Antics" into a pulsing and totally satisfying effort with a joyous [...]
Ahh I've been out of the scene for awhile, but it DEFINITELY feels good to be back. Especially when i get to share music like this... Lancelot's "Spoken Word" is one of the most electrifying house songs I've heard in a while! It's as if there was almost a shortage of music this good being produced. I think I owe this artist an indefinite thank you for turning me onto the music scene again. And why is it that Binary label seems to always get the most amazing artists?! [...]

After years of touring together, the singer/ songwriter brother-sister duo Angus & Julia Stone recently separated and are each launching their own own solo projects. "Broken Brights" is a strong start for Angus Stone 's first single. Angus Stone - "Broken Brights" From Angus- "These writings from the record are of great shift for me in the story telling of these past four years of traveling. Playing this record live is going to be quite a euphoric walk for me. I'm ready at the end of the year [...]
Does this cap make me look "gangsta"? Last weekend, a friend of mine made an interesting comment/observation that I filed away for future consideration. This morning, as I lay in bed plotting my Saturday, it popped back into my head. I'm not sure how or why, but the conversation last Saturday night had suddenly shifted to being black and living in a place where you're not only a minority but a rarity, too. It's a topic that has been broached several times by friends and acquaintances over the last year [...]
