Ajar - Serendipiti

Our local indie-folk fairy is dancing through our airwaves again with her new release, 'Ajar'. Serendipiti showcases her whimsical vocal performance and folkloric storytelling on this track, as she details a relationship that refuses to close and the friends that have your back through the tumultuous ups and downs.

Rancid - PEPTALK ft. Luaté

A decade of friendship and shared experiences led to PEPTALK and Luaté creating the smooth pop soundtrack to your next encounter with a personified red flag. 'Rancid' is an ode to the endless race of the modern music industry, detailing the eternal crave for more in a world that keeps giving you less. This earworm of a track can be found on PEPTALK's brand new mixtape, Better With Friends - Vol 1., alongside seven other stellar collaborations with your favourite artists.

19 - neish

One of my most anticipated releases from our local music scene, neish has released a long-time staple from her live set with '19'. An ode to the tumultuous teen years and growing fears as you approach your twenties, neish draws audiences in with her heartfelt lyricism and turns these isolating worries into a space for connection and relatability.

Look Away - Tulliah

After taking a few years off between releases, Tulliah is back and better than ever with the ever vulnerable 'Look Away'. Pouring pieces of her heart and soul into this track, Tulliah sings of the fear of letting someone close enough to see all of you. A display of her captivating and rich lyricism, 'Look Away' is the first instalment in this new era from one of the most underrated voices in the country.

I still don't have the answers - Brody Thompson

Brody Thompson is bringing a spark to the Meanjin alt-pop scene with his debut EP, Never-ending Noise! Amidst a selection of absolutely hooky pop tunes, 'I still don't have the answers' stands out as an extremely catchy earworm, with a short two-minute run time that encourages listeners to hit repeat. With a sound reminiscent of Ruel and Luke Hemmings, Brody Thompson is a name to keep on your radars.

check 1, 2 - PA777IENCE ft. Jamaica Moana

The smoothest slice of neo-soul has crept its way into my playlist and heart recently, with 'check 1, 2' from PA777IENCE ft. Jamaica Moana. Speaking on this track, PA777IENCE shared that it explores their aims of "trying to work on trusting in myself and my abilities". 'check 1, 2' is more than just a soothing and rich listen, it is a full body exhale, a warm cup of herbal tea, and a wave of familiarity in a crowded room.
