I arrived at the club just after 11 and was quickly handed what appeared to be a light up Fitbit with a Heineken logo. At the back of the club there was a huge Henieken light up wall, synched with…

When Volo reached out with his EP I wasn’t sure what to expect. I hadn’t heard of him but the artwork looked legit and I enjoyed the fact that he used the word the vibes in his social handles.

Last week we had the honour of talking to Slumberjack. During our conversation we asked them who was next to watch out for out of Australia. The first artist they named was LUUDE and after hearing ‘Cortex’ it’s quite clear why.

With Kid Cudi’s new album Speedin’ Bullet 2 Heaven set to drop tonight at midnight I figured we’d throw it back with a classic from Cudi. Going back to his debut mixtape, ‘The Prayer’ sees Cudi going in over a beat that heavily samples Band of Horses ‘The Funeral’. It’s everything that fans came to love from the rapper. It’s…

Last year I stumbled across an incredible New York based producer by the name of Drek Martinez. His debut original, ‘No Love Lost’ made me an instant fan and releases like ‘Muse’, ‘Runaway’ and ‘6th Gear’ proved his consistency. I predicted a huge year for the up-and-coming artist but his SoundCloud fell silent for all of 2015. After spending a good portion of…
