Tropical Fuck Storm: A Laughing Death In Meatspace
- A Laughing Death in Meatspace is a debut album like no other. Firstly, these are no novice musicians. Featuring members of acclaimed cult-band The Drones as well as Palm Springs and Harmony, Tropical Fuck Storm are much more experienced than the average band releasing their first album. Secondly, this album is weird. It is difficult to make comparisons because it doesn’t resemble much, especially within the current Australian music landscape. Musically, it is visceral and often times atonal.
G Elenil: Kin EP
- If the name G Elenil doesn’t ring any immediate bells consider this your preemptive and possibly final warning: there is an undeniable musical force headed in our collective direction and she is not coming quietly. Elenil is a Cypriot-Australian songwriter, producer, performer and part-time fashion designer who fuses r’n’b, dance and hip-hop into a glorious melting pot of musical jambalaya that is equal parts infectious and effortlessly smooth. It's music drenched in a mysteriously endearing aura that never fails to command my attention.
