Nia Archives - Conveniency
The current queen of jungle Nia Archives is back once again, dropping serious heater Conveniency. Warm, cuddly and rave worthy, the track is a lesson in how to get people people moving. 

Goanna, Moss, Tasman Keith - Solid Rock feat. William Barton
Moss, Tasman Keith and William Barton have teamed up with legendary Australian act Goanna to re-imagine Solid Rock in today’s context. The song took Indigenous rights to the masses and forty years on the message still stands. The track has an extreme sense of strength, as generations come together to be outspoken about mistreament of First Nations people.

Peach PRC - Perfect For You
Peach PRC’s Perfect For You is another exemplary pop effort which pays tribute to an icon of pop culture, Paris Hilton and her smash hit Stars Are Blind. Glitzy synths and a catchy hook make for a perfect mix on the record.

PinkPantheress - Boy’s A Liar feat. Ice Spice
PinkPantheress is about to be stanned even harder, linking up with one of the hottest acts in the world right now, Ice Spice to remix her hit Boy’s A Liar. She delivers her trademark, New York delivery over the catchy minimal jersey club inspired beat.

daine - Portal
daine continues to grow towards their sophomore mixtape Shapeless which releases on the 24th of February via their new single Portal. The track is heavily dance music inspired, utilising blazing drum n bass with a pop-punk top line.

BLESSED - HEYA
BLESSED has returned with his first release since his debut album AUSSIE BLACKSTAR, a Matt Corby produced Afrobeats and soul inspired single HEYA. The track’s music video which is directed by Donna Bertram deserves a special shoutout and was filmed during his recent trip to Ghana, paying homage to his ancestors through an allegorical love. 

Caroline Polachek - Blood And Butter
A mere 10 days before the release of her forthcoming album Caroline Polachek has released another expansive pop single, Blood And Butter. Texturally the track is amazing, as layered vocals combine perfectly with panned percussion and swaying ambient synths.

Maina Doe, Ijale, King Ivy - WYA
Record label Valve Sounds has just relaunched, and the label’s roster has combined for a slick cut that sits beautifully in the world of alt-rap and smooth soul. The trio combine gorgeously on the track, with each artists unique sound shining over the warm beat.

Teether & Kuya Neil - CYA
CYA is an impeccable taster of Teether and Kuya Neil’s 9 track mixtape STRESSOR which dropped today. The track is a gloomy and dark (in the best way possible) rap cut that utilises gorgeous atmospheric sounds with a spaced out, autotuned vocal performance.
