Teen Angst — wuwu

‘wuwu’ the first single off Teen Angst’s upcoming EP, Cerulean is out now. I get echoes of colder climates in the late 90s, from this one. The extra ear candy, dialup internet noise, digital pidgeon-esque murmurs develops this character nicely, with a fantastic vocal and guitar solo to top it off.

‘wuwu’ adorns the RTRFM Sound Selection for the week starting December 2nd, 2024.

Lachie Brown — Just A Friend

Lachie Brown releases new single ‘Just A Friend,’ an up tempo, bass forward and grooving pop number. I love the momentum and drive from the rhythm section in this tune, with Lachie’s vocals floating effortlessly atop.

Emu Glitter — Resurrect Me/Tamarind & Lime

New Music from Emu Glitter is out now, the double single Resurrect Me/Tamarind & Lime. It feels nicely “live band in a room” and the vocal performance really brings the energy. The tunes hits some classic moments like the harmonica solo in ‘Tamarind…’ and there’s just a hint of the theatrical about the way the piano, lyric and vocal come together.

This one drops into the RTRFM Sound Selection for the week of December 2nd, 2024.

Nika Mo — Panicle

‘Panicle’ is the new single from Nika Mo. A meandering pair of warm acoustic guitars sets the scene, creating a bed for beautiful multitracked harmonies, with lyrics that feel like the inner musings of someone strolling beneath shedding jacarandas. The accompanying video features said jacarandas in the suburbs of Boorloo.

This one drops into the RTRFM Sound Selection for the week of November 25th, 2024.

This record utilises texture, noise, and ambience to build a dark, moody world within which Ruby’s exceptional vocal performance reveals a sorrowful story. It’s all pulled together so naturally, the sonics and lyrics combining for an emotional ride.
