Brissy young gun backs up his debut single with a killer EP.. There's SO many young producers coming out of Australia it's becoming harder and harder to cut through noise, and this fact alone makes it really pleasing when someone does. And today we're happy to share with you Brisbane producer cln's debut EP, Sideways. Featuring lead single Better Than (which we covered a while BACK) along with its follow-up title track, the EP also includes a couple of unheard trip/hip hoppy jams in Dayum and What You Said, along with a remix for fellow Brisbanite, Golden Vessel. For mine it's the snares in cln's productions that originally grabbed my attention - maybe it's the drummer in me - but a good snare will prick up my ears straight away. Fortunately the downtempo melodies, pitched-around vocals and general smoothness of the whole package works beautifully. He's got some shows coming up too - including supporting our beloved Willow Beats on their Merewif SINGLE TOUR, check 'em after you give Si

After a top showing at Splendour, DMA's are hittin' the ol' dustry trail.. Since bursting onto the scene earlier this year with the one-two punch of sing-along smash Delete and joining the increasingly strong I OH YOU team, DMA's have done nothing to dispell the hype with much-hyped live shows around the country, constant radio play and copping love from the likes of Blur's Dave Rowntree. And following a barnstorming set on the McLennan Stage at Splendour last weekend, they're hitting the road with special guests The Creases. Check the dates below, and click the tour poster to nab yourself a ticket (on sale this Friday): Follow DMA's on FACEBOOK

A photo diary and video interview from Splendour.. So the Splendour come down is still running hard - cold sweats, acid flashbacks, dancing in our sleep: the whole shebang. Fortunately looking over the photos and working on some of the video interviews we conducted is helping. Today we're happy to share our first - with Australian dance music overlords RÜFÜS. They're currently hyping the expanded re-release of their world-beating debut album Atlas (check all the details HERE), so the timing is all coming up Milhouse. We also took photographer-on-the-rise Jack Lawrence AKA Slice Of Life Photography (chuck him a follow HERE) over with us, and he shot a bunch of killer photos during the boys' set:

Goldroom wants you to remix his new track before it's even released.. And now for a remix competition with a difference - LA-based producer Goldroom (he of Embrace fame) has announced the August 11 release of his new single, Till Sunrise feat. Mammals, by releasing a "premix". He can explain a little better: "The Premix is an experiment. Remixes are a big part of the creative world I live in... One thing that I've struggled with, though, is that when crafting a remix, you're bound in one way or another by the original track. Inevitably the song, its arrangement, and its instrumentation influence the remix. What I'm interested in here is seeing what happens when people remix a song without having actually heard that song." With that in mind, he's released the vocal stem for the track (listen below), and is inviting people to put their own spin on the track just using the vocals, before even hearing Goldroom's own take on it. It's a pretty interesting concept, and he (along with ourselve
