Live Review: SOUNDCLOUD WRAP: Palace

Just when you thought you had every one of your fingers pressed to the beat of the musical pulse, every eye fixed upon 'Artists To Watch', Australia throws you another bone.

Namely, PALACE: the Western Australian wunderkind putting his own spin on the electronic sound of other such producers-of-the-now as WAVE RACER (see his remix of RATTRAPS' 'U4EA') CASHMERE CAT (see his remix of PACES' 'LEAVE') and FLUME (see his original track 'Slow Burn').

Hailing from Perth, young PALACE has already made more than a few waves in the nation's electronic kiddy pool—having caught the eye and/or played support for the likes of fellow Aussies LDRU, SURECUT KIDS and WHAT SO NOT. Now the up-n-comer has kindly shed some light on those artists and tracks that get his own juices flowing:

POMO 'Start Again'

"I love Pomo and this just happened to pop up in my Soundcloud stream just then."

SLUMBERJACK 'Felon'

"This track is an absolute brain melter from my Perth amigos Slumberjack."

LINDSAY LOWEND 'Ashtray'

"I will give someone a huge high five if they can send me a good quality version of this."

ANDRU. 'Elastic'

"You can definitely hear the Carmack influence in ANDRU.'s productions and I definitely do not have a problem with that."

ELLIPHANT 'Revolusion'

"Skip straight to the second drop in DJ sets and the turn up becomes real."

KILTER 'They Say' (Butcher Remix)

"Whilst the original is an amazing track, I think Butcher has absolutely nailed the remix. THAT NO DRUM DROP THO."

OSHAN. 'Abataka'

"I think this track is the beginning of Osh coming into his own and I'm really excited to hear where he goes from here."

PACES 'Can't Touch Me' ft. Madeline Vida

"Paces is just the man. Simple as that."

YAHTZEL 'Girls'

"This one never fails to get me out of a fragile/ hung over state like the one I am in now."
