Super chilled, super beautiful new music outta Melbourne.. Luke Howard is a composer/pianist from Melbourne who last year released his first solo album, Sun, Cloud. Filled with beautiful compositions of the ivory-key kind, he's following it up with a remix EP called Night, Cloud. Today he's released the Kyson remix of his track August, which preceeds a massive pack featuring re-works from Tim Shiel, Brambles, Jimmy Saunders, Paul Evans, Mike Katz, Elisabeth Carlsson and personal fave of ours, Japanese Wallpaper. Take a listen to August (Kyson Remix) below, and head along to Luke's BANDCAMP to pre-order the release, which is due April 17 for a measly $5.

Drinking, drugs and death - a new short film from QOTSA.. Directed by Hiro Murai (Childish Gambino, St. Vincent) this new video clip for Smooth Sailing - the next single from Queens Of The Stone Age's latest album, ...Like Clockwork - is all kinds of awesome. What starts out as somewhat harmless drinks with friends, ends with all kinds of drugs under the sun, people getting well hurt with golf clubs, and Josh Homme just continuing to be a badass. Enjoy, and remember the days when video clips were events, not just an excuse to get played on Channel V.

A unique indoor dance event hitting Syd and Melb this June.. HOLEANDCORNER is the combined efforts of touring companies Illusive and Funf, and it's hitting the east side this winter with a line-up that puts the focus on top-quality acts, in an environment that will strive for 'memorable experience' over anything else. Rolling in to Melbourne's Docklands Saturady 7 June and Sydney's Home Nightclub Sunday 8 June (Queen's Birthday Long Weekend), HOLEANDCORNER will be putting a strong emphasis on converting both venues into unrecognisable spaces in an effort to provide punters with something a little out of the ordinary. To compliment this, they've arranged a forward-thinking line-up to get your feet shuffling, whether it be house, techno, wonky electronica or something else, featuring: Hot Chip (DJ Set) Matthew Dear Henry Saiz (Live) Guy J Cosmin TRG Xosar (Live) For more info and to grab yourself a ticket, click the poster below:

Celebrating his debut EP release, Oscar Key Sung is hitting the road.. From his infectious dancefloor worms to super sexy minimalist slow jams, there's nothing we don't like about Oscar Key Sung.

Mac DeMarco talks Salad Days and the internet.. Mac DeMarco is known to be crazy, loud and to happily say what is on his mind. However, Mac shaped up to be far more jaded by the system than expected. Showing a different side in our interview, touching on the anxiety surrounding Salad Days, working with Tyler, The Creator and why the internet makes it so damn hard to stick your thumb in your bum more than once.

The disco is strong with this one.. A couple of weeks back we had the pleasure of offering you Sydney disco outfit Midnight Pool Party's new single, Linger, as our FRIDAY FREEBIE, and now you can download the whole Linger EP, featuring B-side Disco Delight, plus a couple of killer remixes from Luke Million and Sondrio. The whole release oozes mountains of funk, soul and disco reminiscent of the days when Stardust and Jamiroquai ruled the dancefloor (not that they still don't). Luke Million adds a touch of Swiss-synth/vocoder to the piece, while Canberra producer Sondrio adds some deeper, housey vibes. If you're in Sydney you can catch the guys live at one of the following dates: Saturday 12 April - Brighten Up Bar, Sydney (EVENT) Saturday 10 May - Beach Road Hotel, Bondi Beach Thursday 29 May - FBi Social, Kings Cross (EVENT)
