Zoe K and The Shadow Katz - You're Gonna Curse The Day     Blues/Roots, Soul 15/11/2011
In a climate dominated by manufactured talent, Zoe K and The Shadow Katz are a welcomed dose of old school jazz, blues, substance and style.
A song that screams 'I'm ready to stop watching bad television, eating chocolate and get back to my life' with revenge of course. This is an up beat soul, rhythm and blues inspired track that will turn big burly daddies into sissy little girly girls.

Yothu Yindi - Healing Stone     World, Pop, Australian Indigenous 26/11/2012
Yothu Yindi translates from Yolngu matha to English as "child and mother" and is essentially a kinship term referring to the connection that the Yolngu clans have between themselves.
"Healing Stone" is the first new song by Yothu Yindi in 12 years. Co-written by Mandawuy and INXS tunesmith Andrew Farriss, it’s as culturally urgent, profoundly personal and ultimately universal as any song in the world-renowned Arnhem Land band's 27-year history.

Lead by John Parkinson on vocals, powered by the elastic funk of Sashi Dharann on bass, the beats of Tom Gould on drums, the kaleidoscopic sounds of Rhys Richards’ keys.

Woe & Flutter had a dream run in 2011. They were unearthed by triple j and signed with Ivy League Records.

William Street Strikers - Madboy     Rock, Ska 17/01/2012
The band had great success with their two EP's, particularly "No Not Nick". Received strong airplay across many community stations including JJJ, RRR, 4ZZZ, FBi and more.
"Madboy" is a solid mid-tempo rock/pop song with very strong ska overtones. Hooky throughout, "Madboy" is instantly familiar with it's horns and catchy chorus.

Will and the Indians - What If I Said     Rock, Pop 12/01/2013
Stirring dual guitar work. Clever, self-conscious lyrics. A rhythm section propulsive enough to power a goddamn car. That's the fine young Camden lads, Will and the Indians!

Wilding - I’ll Love You Until Monday Morning     Pop, Psychedelic, Britpop 01/05/2012
Wilding’s playful pop experimentation delights in slyly curling melodies and frank, if at times absurdist, lyrics about love and desire. Now imagine distinctly British-flavoured songs from psychedelic-era Abbey Road studios.
When love is just a weekend away...
‘I’ll Love You Until Monday Morning’ is a Beatlesque sing-a-long pop gem with a harmonious ending of swirling guitars and interlaced vocals.
...’I remember your clothes, slipping to the floor. I remember the knocks, through the walls, from next door’...

Other tracks by Wilding:  The Day I Let You Pass Me By  -  Burning Up Inside
We All Want To - Ramp Up The Bleeding     Pop, Rock 23/08/2012
Brisbane indie super-group We All Want To make sublimely intelligent music, putting their own spin on classically-melodic power-pop.

Velociraptor - Riot     Rock, Garage, Pop 09/07/2012
Velociraptor like to make party, so much so that they formed a band/gang so large, so loose, and so fun that instant party making was guaranteed* wherever they showed up.
You might remember, Velociraptor from their summer hit ‘Cynthia’. Stuff got wild once that track got out onto the Internets and radio... Before the team knew it they were bitchin' rockstars. Now, they're back, armed to the teeth with more hooks than a fisherman moonlighting as a hooker, with ‘Riot’.

Underlights - Remnants     Rock, Garage 26/03/2012
While still maintaining a unique approach and a classic Australian aesthetic Underlights wear their influences like Oasis, Stone Roses, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and The Black Angels on their sleeves.
'Remnants' is a sprawling, psychedelic track with a huge sound full of everything that made you love The Stone Roses, but still manages to keep Underlights' own unique style that made first single 'Now That You’re in Love' one of the most added to radio tracks of March.
