- Sleep Decade are a three-piece that hail from somewhere between Melbourne and Geelong, made up of two brothers and a close friend. The strong, indeed familial relationship between the three becomes increasingly evident over the course of their new record, with its sparse, yet still incredibly lush atmosphere.  Where spacious electronic textures and gorgeously melodic guitar parts make you feel as if you’re three feet off of the ground, the tight, repetitive, minimalist beats and simple, emotive bass-lines keep you planted firmly on the floor.

- Primitive Motion is a Brisbane based duo who first combined to produce sonic landscapes around seven years ago.  Their third full-length album is called House in the Wave, released through the Bedroom Suck label.

I don’t know when “ambient” was first used as a genre description – probably at least forty years ago – but it’s hard to think of a recording which better fits this label.  It’s a collection of dreamy, meditative, relaxing tunes, where the changes in tone and feel happen are as hard to perceive as the change from mist to cloud.
