[Surf - Pop] Opus Orange - Take Your Time

Opus Orange lead by frontman Paul "PB" Bessenbacher have just released their latest EP Surface. There's definitely a lot going on in Surface but considering PB is a talented multi - instrumentalist there's no doubt that it has been composed to perfection. "Take Your Time" incorporates fun loving surf elements with upbeat synths and casio beats creating wonderful harmonies throughout the song. Hopefully their debut album is not too far away in the future.

At just 19 years old, singer-songwriter Jake Bugg is making huge waves with his new single "Two Fingers". With influences from classic artists such as the The Beatles, Oasis and Bob Dylan not to mention some Arctic Monkeys and Miles Kane and it's clear that Jake Bugg is writing music way beyond his years. The stirring track and catchy chorus is so refreshing and unique; a far cry from many young artist today.

[Indie - Pop] Alice Jemima - By Your Side

Let me introduce you to a young lady by the name of Alice Jemima, a 19 year old singer - song writer from Devon in the UK. "By Your Side" is incredible simple yet it still manages to melt my heart in an instant. Alice's gorgeous vocals backed with the dense and ambient guitars makes for a heart - warming affair. Equal parts charm, talent and beauty, Alice Jemima is an angel - as a matter of fact someone should give heaven a call because she must be missing.

[Indie - Rock] Hungry Kids of Hungary - Sharp Shooter

Brisbane's four piece Hungry Kids of Hungary have always produced music that inspires equal measures of curiosity and joy - "Sharp Shooter" is no exception. Infused with a health dose of 60's pop and lashings of soul "Sharp Shooter" signals the Brisbane outfit's return in style. Most noticeably the track features some pretty jangly guitar work as we come to expect from these guys. Eagerly awaiting the new album due early next year.

[Electro - Pop] Strange Talk - Cast Away

Brand new track from one of Australia's favorite electro pop groups Strange Talk. There's nothing really new about "Cast Away", I would've hoped to have seen some progression or maturity of sound with Strange Talk considering it's been a year since their last release. This is not to say this is a bad track, it's still the Strange Talk we all know and love, their classic edgy synth work is on show once again. Look out for the debut album early next year!

[Electro - Pop] St. Lucia - September

So it's finally here, the brand new track "September"from the electro pop group St. Lucia. Well the wait was worth it as they deliver another brilliant pulsating track that just comes under 6 minutes long. I can best describe "September" as a synth drenched explosion of sound. From the beginning it builds up slowly before hitting it's climax, from then on it launches into a layer of dance ready synths and well after that I lost track because I was too busy dancing.
