Class A - Fitzroy ~ PLUS ~ Polo Club




Class A has finally released her latest clip, 'Fitzroy'. Just wait till that breakdown... That's my shit!! She's got an EP in the works, so stay tuned. You'll be hearing more from this one. Apparently, this track was played on Triple J - snap!

The calibre of clips that are coming out of Aus at the moment is straight fire! Whisper, Jess Harlen (see those two below), as well as Polo Club (just beneath these words), and keep your eyes peeled for KillaQueenz new clip, which is yet to be released. These are the kind of clips that are fit to compete for air-time on an international level. I really hope this trend for quality continues.



Quadron: On Like Tron!


I want to move to any one of these countries: Denmark, Sweden, or Norway. I'm telling you, the soulful electronic music coming out of these parts is insane! This point is proven (again) by Danish duo, Quadron. I only learned about them today, but I feel like I should've always known - and I feel a little embarrassed that I didn't... At least I'm not alone in my feelings of inadequacy, it seems like every blog article I've read about Quadron, the author apologises for having slept on them! Well, let's start making up for our ignorance, shall we?

Check out their clip for 'Pressure', and why don't you cop a freebie of 'Horses'?! Other great tracks for me are 'Day' and 'Jeans' (Google ahoy!)

Oh, and have you heard Little Dragon's new album, 'Machine Dreams', yet? What are you waiting for??

The Soul Movement Volume 3: The Final Chapter


I had this mixtape on repeat last night, folks! If you haven't already had the pleasure of listening to Volumes 1 and 2, I suggest you get on it post-haste, 'cos Volume 3 is where we're all up to now! Cee & Bekah are part of The Movement Fam (click on the image above to check out their blog), which is a Melbourne hip-hop collective. They've been doin their thing for a minute, gigging around Melbourne, going to the States and showing them what's what, and (of course) putting out some fine mixtapes. If you like your hip-hop soulful, then you've come to the right place.

Jess Harlen - Watch the Water



I know I'm a bit behind the 8-ball with posting this video, but here it is! If you haven't already, check out Jess Harlen's new single/video WATCH THE WATER. It was filmed by Joske films, so you know it's gonna be a classy operation.If you're a bit of a fan of Melbourne's local soul scene, check out some of the ladies in the background, you may recognise a face or two. Watch the Water is taken off her forthcoming album, NEON HEARTACHE. So far, I've heard two recordings off the album - this one and 'Diamond' - and I gotta tell you that, if these tracks are anything to go by (and they are), her album is gonna be like some kind of awesomeness!!
