The newest members in the fam drop their debut single, Love..

A very special - and weird - Aus' premiere for you of Arca's latest single video clip.. As mentioned when we posted the track INITIALLY, we've been excited about the work of producer Arca since some time early last year, and we've been feverishly anticipating new music from him since. His dense and darkly-layered productions are about to find a home on Arca's debut album, Xen, due November 7 via Mute and Create/Control. He released Thievery a couple of weeks ago, an immense and immersive experience, cinematic in scope, unpredictable, and so beautifully composed, and we're incredibly excited/honoured to premiere its twisted video clip today, directed by longtime collaborator Jesse Kanda, who is also in charge of the album artwork. There's not really many words for the clip, except that it feels exactly right for a producer like Arca, so just enjoy it below: Follow Arca: FACEBOOK // WEBSITE

Melbourne duo Two Can give Hopium's latest a bit of oomph.. After announcing themselves earlier this year with debut single Cut, and really stamping their place in the Australan electronic music scene with Dreamers featuring Snakadaktal's Phoebe Lou (listen to both HERE), it's fair to say Hopium are easily ones to watch in the latter half of this year and moving forward. Likewise, Melbourne brother duo Two Can have been releasing a steady stream of chilled trap tunes featuring tight production and an ear for melody, and that good form continues on this remix for Hopium. You can learn more about Two Can and hear some of their other work HERE, or get stuck into this free download of Dreamers below, giving the original a bit more kick, without losing any of its prettiness.

Corona Extra are taking the Portlandindie kings on a free tour around Aus'.. There are few things more exciting than a Portugal. The Man Australian tour, the Alaskan-bred, Portland-based indie lords who've proven time and again on Australian tours that they're one of the world's best live acts... nay acts period. But if they toured Australia for free, that too would be pretty epic. And thanks to Corona Extra, they will be rocking 25 venues across Australia this November for the grand total ticket price of $0.

With the release of a beautiful new clip, Fractures announces a couple of special shows.. Following a sold out tour last month, Fractures has released a powerful video collabortion for his song It's Alright, along with announcing a run of shows overseas and a couple of special shows in Sydney and Melbourne in November. The video was done with Melbourne filmmaker Matthew Chuang, and shot in the abandoned city of Pripyat in Ukraine, and traces a fictional former inhabitant’s movements through empty homes and schools deserted in 1986. The man’s attempts to revive memories of lost lives mirror Fractures’ bruised electronica for a powerful few minutes. Get lost in it below, along with the tour dates after that, and some info on a special Pozible pre-sale campaign, which offers some special rewards including vinyls, artwork prints, shirts and MORE. TOUR DATES: November 22 - Paddington Uniting Church || Sydney (TICKETS) November 29 - Shadow Electric, Abbottsford Convent || Melbourne (TICKETS

V-fresh sounds from a new young Melbourne producer, River Yarra.. River Yarra is a new project from from Raudie McLeod, previously releasing music under his own name and also 1993. And while I haven't heard of those until now, or River Yarra til this single fell into my lap, I'm definiltey on board. The Look incorporates field recordings of rocks bring thrown into ponds and people yelling in forests, for something very unique. The closest example I could think of was Caribou, but that's just to try and give it some context. It's from an upcoming debut EP release, and is the perfect mix of subtle elements growing into an awesome groove. Raudie refers to it himself as "psychic-cosmic-bush-dance", and that's just about perfect. Follow River Yarra: FACEBOOK // SOUNDCLOUD

Popular US outfit Yellowcard will return to Australia next July, with the band announcing a national tour with Mayday Parade.

Story of The Year have parted ways with their bassist, Adam Russell, and posted a letter to fans explaining future plans.

If you're twenty-something years old, then chances are that Yellowcard were one of the bands that soundtracked your youth. Upon the release of their breakthrough album 'Ocean Avenue' in 2003, the band blew up in the worldwide alternative music scene. Now, a decade later, the group has done a lot of growing up, and is set to release their most mature record to date, 'Lift A Sail' this October. We had the chance to talk to violinist Sean Mackin about the record, as well as about their return to Australia next year with Mayday Parade.
