Video: Eleanor Dunlop - Rollin' On (Premiere)
Eleanor Dunlop's rumbling surf-rock tune Rollin' On gets a retro video treatment.. Sydney's Eleanor Dunlop has followed on from a successful 2014 and the release of her debut EP with her latest offering, Rollin' On, a track that sees her moving away from the darker piano-pop stylings on that previous release, into a rumbling piece of surf-rock underpinned by Dunlop's smooth, smouldering vocals. Kinda like a somehow-more relaxed Best Coast, it's the first taste of her 2015 EP release, and today we have the pleasure of premiering its video accompaniment, featuring plenty of super-8 and retro-shot footage and colourful editing: SHOW DATES: Fri 6 Mar - Brighton Up Bar, Sydney w/ Jenny Broke The Window (TICKETS) Thu 19 March - Shebeen, Melbourne w/ Lester The Fierce (TICKETS) Follow Eleanor Dunlop: FACEBOOK / WEBSITE / TWITTER

New Music: ODESZA - Bloom (Lane 8 Remix)
Lane 8 release a bouncy, feel-good house remix of ODESZA’s Bloom.. It is safe to say that Seattle-raised group ODESZA has had a pretty damn massive year. Their latest album, In Return, was one of the biggest electronic releases of the year, collecting a whopping ten #1’s on the Hype Machine charts, as well as performances around the world, including the Coachella Music and Arts Festival. One of the tracks on this album, the delicate and bouncy Bloom, has been honored by an absolutely stellar remix by producer Lane 8, also known to friends and family as Daniel Goldstein. The remix transforms the original into an absolutely banging house tune, using the atmospheric synth and vocals chopped from the original, Goldstein has added a quick hit of heavy bass and percussion to transform the tune into the perfect summer-house tune. It’s a real banger. Follow Lane 8: FACEBOOK
