Jaala 'Joonya Spirit' Vinyl LP

Through your ears, deep in your mind, down in your heart, in a way you never knew you wanted, Jaala will caress you and Jaala will entice you. Like the roots of a tree Jaala is ever growing, pruned only by themselves and never by the expectations of the public.
Like a pair of crappy old jeans you've unstitched and re-stitched, always working to make them the best goddam pair of jeans you ever imagined in your wild little noggin. Intricately decorated and lovingly crafted, Jaala's music comes from a place of deep focus and care.
In 2015 Jaala released their debut album Hard Hold'to critical acclaim both nationally and internationally. We could sit here talking about Pitchfork's glowing review or how Triple J featured the album but all that is in the past and Jaala are in the now. Google is available if you are curious about these achievements. Since the release of Hard Hold'they have transformed into a completely new animal, stylistically and literally.
The addition of Carolyn Schofield (synth) of Fia Fiell fame has moved the band towards a more haunting, dreamy experimental pop movement as opposed to the guitar shredding melt your face prog rock vibes of yesteryear.
Vocalist/guitarist Cosima pay and drummer/genius Maria Moles stand firm with their intricately woven telepathy. The ornate and ever flowing creativity is still ubiquitous, only it feels different now, rather than falling down a beautiful waterfall into a pit of demons that become your mates it's more like your feet have been confiscated at the same time as you've been given the ability to fly.
Cop a feel in April 2018 when their new album Joonya Spirit'is unleashed upon the world in all it's untouchable glory.

When was the last time you watched the sunset? Sunset Cities is a new musical project created to explore this and many other questions concerning one's own presence, spiritual essence, belief, love, and mindfulness while in rotation around the life light.Visit product page →
The group is comprised of two emcees and two producers; four human perspectives judging the light and the dark of life, maneuvering between the two while the fundamentals of hip-hop culture and psychedelic soul simmer on the coasts of South Australia.
Last year in Adelaide over a plate of Ethiopian food, MC's Nelson Dialect and Cazeaux O.S.L.O. crafted the basic principles for waxing poetic over two distinct sonic dimensions - a record made up of two sides, the first produced by Melbourne beatmaker Skomes (known for his work with Caseaux O.S.L.O under the moniker SO.Crates) and the second by Adelaide resident Alnitak Kid.
The record follows the cycle of the sun, no beginnings and no endings, just answers to this and many other questions using the voice, the drum and the body electric. When was the last time you watched the sunset?

Winter 2018 will see Perth's angelic Rabbit Island release her newest album; Deep in The Big . A culmination of the music Amber Fresh is known and adored for in her hometown, Perth/Fremantle, and beyond, Deep in The Big is a pure experience that will take listeners somewhere beautiful and new. Amber is an artist who cannot create anything un-beautiful.Visit product page →
In Deep in The Big she uses piano, guitar, organ, voice and a swag of effects to build a rippling, oceanic work. Part of the Perth/Fremantle psych-renaissance, but treading her own path, Rabbit Island shoots for her own constellation of sound, lands there, and doesn't look back.
Deep in The Big was recorded in Melbourne and Ocean Beach (Wurundjeri and Whadjuk land) in 2015 in the soft wooden rooms of Soundpark Studio and by the sea at producer Aden Senycia's Soft Machine studio.
Mastering was done at Poons Head with Rob Grant (Tame Impala, POND, Jeff Martin, Death Cab for Cutie, Melody's Echo Chamber). Aden Senycia recorded the album (Nathalie Pavlovic assisting) and mixed it with Amber.
Amber's friend and collaborator Nicholas Allbrook joins on guitar and voice in some tracks, and a few other friends (Tristan Parr, Benjamin Witt, Peter Bibby, Leonie Brialey) dip a sound, a conversation, or a cello in too.
Deep in The Big is healing music from Perth's angel of experimental lo-fi romantic spiritual songs, Amber Fresh.

Lehmann B. Smith has written many hundreds of songs in search of the good one'. Some of these attempts have made their way onto his six diverse and critically acclaimed albums, from The Big Dry'(2009) to Thank God For My Body'(2015).Visit product page →
Finding his greatest success as a sideman for bands like Totally Mild and Kes Band, Smith has often been described as a musician's musician, an undiscovered talent. He is a prodigious songwriter, laboriously notating album after album of unreleased material and storing these away in his home studio for a rainy day.
With this new album written, arranged, recorded and played almost entirely by himself at this studio (reportedly somewhere in Ascot Vale), Lehmann B. Smith is like a suburban version of Prince on the outskirts of an Australian city.
He is a mystery, an enigma, something of a genius; his music will resonate in your head for days, and should you be lucky enough to witness a live performance - save that story for your children. 'His compositions are elegant gossamer tapestries that engage and inspire.
The back-porch pathos is stunningly interwoven with haunting reverie and a morbid curiosity ' about the physical nature of the human body and all it's designed to control and contain.' - Brendan Telford, The Music

Brisbane duo Primitive Motion drop their third full-length for the Bedroom Suck label, this time leaving the studio door ajar to let sound flow between worlds internal and beyond.Visit product page →
The result is a meditative suite of dreamy piano-based songs, captured live at the point of conception and teeming with the incidental sounds of both the studio and garden.
Following the extended cosmic forays and short-form pop studies of 2015's acclaimed Pulsating Time Fibre, the duo of Sandra Selig and Leighton Craig have steered the ship to an interior sea, exploring the quiet reverie of Sunday afternoons spent in Selig's home studio in Brisbane.
With the record'button pressed, the days drift through the microphone, documenting the process of composition: the rustle of lyric sheets and unintended room sounds is accompanied by birdsong and an approaching storm.
The studio space itself becomes a palpable presence as Selig moves between rooms while playing her saxophone, the improvised melodies floating out of the studio, lilting and melancholic, a familiar whisper dreamt into existence.
In the process of reducing their sound world to the barest of instrumentation (at times just voice and piano), PM revels in the beauty of the unadorned song, creating the purest distillation of their dream-float'music to date. House in the Wave is a beautiful and intimate work by a band constantly evolving their sound.
'The Brisbane duo of Sandra Selig and Leighton Craig occupy an alternative pop continuum in common with archaic futurists like Silver Apples and Joe Meek circa I Hear a New World, sonic explorers whose music is founded on the hope that the sound of tomorrow is what the fantasy of yesterday would make of it.' - David Keenan, The Wire
