Queens based Sylar release their new studio album – ‘To Whom It May Concern’ – in Australia today. To coincide, we help feature the new, debut full-length (listen below).

The kids keep getting younger, and the beats keep getting better.. Better Than is 18-year-old Brissy producer cln's new single, and it's the first taste of his forthcoming EP, Sideways. I've been following his progress for a while, including remixes of tracks like Disclosures' White Noise, and Kilter's They Say, which were cool without blowing the proverbial roof off. So it gives me great pleasure today to share with you Better Than, because it stands head and shoulders above those remixes - which is all you want when it comes to originals. I guess you'd slide it under the 'chilltrap' genre, if that's a thing, and the warped vocal samples combine nicely with a tough drum-snare combo that keeps it from being super-down-tempo. I can't wait for the EP, out June 11, and until then I suggest you download Better Than for free, give cln a follow on FACEBOOK // SOUNDCLOUD, and keep your ears peeled for more releases as they come.

Celebrating a new EP and east coast tour, meet Sydney five-piece East Of Ely.. East Of Ely are a five-piece fresh out of Sydney that fall somewhere between the Naked & Famous and The Temper Trap, and they've just released their debut EP and announced a mini east coast tour to celebrate. Press play on the lead single Easy Friend, and get to know 'em a little better below: Who are you? We are collectively known as East Of Ely. A quintet based out of Sydney with all our gear housed at Cavers Inn. How’d you meet? Having all played with each other at some point in past projects, Moeaki’s sweet apartment seemed the logical place to store our vintage gear. We share an appreciation for cool looking hardware and cheesy covers, which led to ideas from which the band was formed. What kinda tunes we talkin’? ‘Alt pop’ was quoted recently... I think we fall somewhere between Chrvches and Naked & Famous, but love Panama Wedding and Pigeon. Most tracks are recorded live in a studio or Chris’s bedroo

Red Bull Music Academy has announced their Splendour In The Grass stage, for those playing at home.. One of the few memories that have stuck with me from Splendour In The Grass last year was pretty much every night finding myself wandering over to the Red Bull Music Academy stage in a fit of lost bewilderment, and without fail finding a killer dancefloor pimped out with incredibule electronic music and mind-wobbling visuals. I didn't always figure out who was playing, but not a time went by that I didn't visit that stage and have a rad dance and get some sweet time away form the hussle and bussle of Splendour In The Grass. The RBMA Stage is returning to Splendour In The Grass this year, and they've just announced another killer line-up of acts you might know, and ones you might not, but each and every one will no doubt provide a unique sonic environment for you to have THE BEST TIME. The line-up so far looks a little something like this: Young Franco Flamingo Cassius Select Remi Sampol
