Jadu Heart - Hyper Romance
80

Such an underrated band with a unique blend of indie pop, rock and edm, with subtle psychedelic sounds sprinkled throughout.

Some unexpected drops and beat switches turn several of their tracks into genre-bending ballads, while others are more stripped back and acoustic - allowing us to really hear the lead singer’s beautiful voice on its own.

Fav tracks: Another Life, Dead Again, Burning Hour

Jadu Heart - Derealised
75

Cocoon is my favourite song of theirs overall. Webs and Freedom are also great on this album. I often find myself skipping the rest but overall loving their sound right now.

Flume - Skin
90

I was always think of the summer after high school graduation + hottest 100 day when I hear anything from this album. Good time fr

Flume - Arrived Anxious, Left Bored
94

Can’t believe he’d been sitting on some of these tracks for so long

After hearing the first few singles, I was so excited as they had the classic Drums sound we first fell in love with. However, it seems the rest of the album went a completely different direction and just didn’t seem to fit. ‘I want it all’ and ‘better’ lured me into expecting something similar to Abysmal Thoughts, which is perhaps the reason I felt even more disappointed (which I hate to admit).

I am absolutely in full support of artists evolving their sound and ... read more

The Drums - Portamento
99

This album has had a chokehold on me for 10 years and I’ve only grown to like it more. Arguably the best album of that era of surf rock.

The Drums - The Drums
95

The peak of 2010s surf rock

Olivia Rodrigo - vampire

The perfect first single for a perfect album. This is the song that immediately turned me into a super-fan.

Olivia Rodrigo - GUTS

No skips. No notes.

Fred again.. - Actual Life 2 (February 2 - October 15 2021)
98

I went from fan to super-fan because of this album. Makes me wanna cry and dance at the same time??

Favourite tracks: Roze, Tanya

Fred again.. - Actual Life 3 (January 1 - September 9 2022)
95

No notes tbh just a phenomenal edm album and finale to the Actual Life era.

Fav tracks: Delilah, Kammy, Danielle, Clara

Fred again.. - ten days
78

After three practically perfect albums, I had very high expectations. There are some absolutely stunning tracks - ‘Just Stand There’ might be one of my favourite songs of his. Fear Less and Backseat are also beautiful.

As a whole, it didn’t seem to flow the same as the Actual Life series. I hate to compare, but it doesn’t feel like each song fits on the same project like previous projects do. This is what I loved about Fred, he created albums that were best listened to ... read more

Billie Eilish - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT
99

Album of the year and Billie’s best IMO. I thought I was a Billie fan before, but this album changed my brain chemistry. Regretfully deducting 1 point (lol) because I have to skip The Diner.

Fav tracks: Chihiro, Birds of a feather, The Greatest

Royel Otis - PRATTS & PAIN
80

Firstly - we LOVE to see an Aussie act blow up globally like this, something that hasn’t really happened to this extent in a long time. This is a great album overall - with many certified indie rock hits. I think we can expect to see these guys get bigger and better by album #3.

Fav track: Heading For The Door

Goth Babe - Lola
92

This man brings me so much joy

Fav track: Crocodile

Tourist - Memory Morning
89

Bro never fails to make me levitate

Worn-Tin - Cycles

Worn-Tin - Lurlene
85

Everyone is sleeping on Worn-Tin fr
