Circle by Lost At E Minor
Sydney band Circle have just released their debut album Just Keep Swimming and boy does it make me smile. It's an album that works hard to take your mind elsewhere—and succeeds. Driven by piano, the album is a layered sing-a-long pop fiesta with a good dose of guitar stroking, hand clapping shout-out-loud anthems. It will remind you of Ben Folds, Ben Lee and the Beatles, all in one song, and then in the next, Tim Freedman and your family gatherings. It's definitely an album for those lazy Saturday afternoons. Look out for their song "The Chicken and the Troll."

Recently announced as the support for American singer-songwriter, Martha Wainwright on all eleven shows of her Australian tour, we checked in with Sydney-based songwriter Fergus Brown to get the inside story on his wonderfully quirky and catchy pop song, "Nerds In Love." It was was a fun song to write. Some songs can be tortuous but this was an imagined, tongue-in-cheek vignette of my...

Pivot
Lost At E Minor featured Pivot's Secret Playlist recently and now they have an awesome new album out. With members scattered across the globe (though with roots firmly planted in Sydney), Pivot create lushly ominous electronic music that seeps through your soul, steals your heart and renders you immobile.

Cut Copy
Melbourne's Cut Copy is the hottest electro act out of Australia right now. We spoke to Mitchell Brown from the group to get the lowdown. Does Melbourne still have a dynamic creative scene? I think it really does—there's no shortage of people in Melbourne doing amazingly cool things creatively, whether it's music, art, fashion, or design. There's a lot going on. Also, for music,...

Sugar Army
Sugar Army are four guys who've spent their lives in the dreamy slumber of West Australia, with their only savior from terminal boredom being music. With the lengthy titled opener, "And Now You're Old Enough, I Think That You Should Know," earning these indie rock purists high rotation on Australian radio network Triple J and community radio, the cheeky quartet have just added a...

The E.L.F.
The E.L.F. is the new side project of Gerling frontman, Darren Cross. A genre agnostic, Cross throws a tantrum on "Stevie Nicks Hearts," the first EP created el solo in the dark underbelly of his Sydney home studio. The indie-infused aesthetic smashes itself against the wall, whilst '80s synth-beats get thrown across the room like a bad break up. It's like Beck made babies...
