Zara Larsson is attempting to recreate the Australian success of ‘Lush Life’ and ‘Ruin My Life’ with a new single. Keeping the bangers coming, All the Time is bound to make another mark on the chart for the Swede, and we’re ready to dance along to it.
Melbourne-based DJ-producer MorningMaxwell has been a club staple for a couple of years and has been rolling out the tunes. He’s teamed up with fellow Melburnian Wildfire and JOY favourite Zoë Badwi to create a single full of Market-era disco-house goodness in ‘Body Drive’. You’ll be yearning for the good old days with this one in the background.
On the heels of World Pride NYC and Stonewall 50, out-and-proud DJ-producer Matt Consola has worked with American duo Dirty Disco to rework Heather Small‘s pride classic. Aussie producer Division 4 has taken it a step further, remixing ‘Proud’ to make it even more anthemic.
Sisters Vic and Gab are REYNA and they have been busy writing new music since their last release, ‘Heartbeat’. Written about out-and-proud Vic’s experience of love in college, ‘The Way I Loved You’ is a synth-pop bop that’s timed perfectly for the northern summer. If you love Tegan and Sara, you’re going to love this Milwaukee duo.
It’s been a while between drinks for Brit Will Young, but with the recent release of his seventh album, Lexicon, he’s back in the game. ‘My Love’ is the second single from the album, returning the out-and-proud singer-songwriter to his pop roots.
Thomston may not be a name you recognise at first, but it’s certainly one to watch. The New Zealander has made waves in alternative-indie circles since releasing his first EP at the age of 18. ‘Lightweight’ marks the follow-up to ‘The Heights’ and ‘Acid Rain’, and tells a story of doing everything possible to impress someone you like. This is a bop and we think you’ll love it.
‘Sounds Good to Me’ was the first taste we had of Hanne Mjøen, and that banger went down a treat. The Norwegian singer-songwriter returns with a pop song laden with hooks and sweet goodness in ‘Strangers’. The beat is sure to bring a smile to your face and the song is made for Melbourne’s most uplifting music mix.
Denmark’s Theresa Rex is not widely known by name, but you’ll recognise her voice from Martin Jensen’s Solo Dance and Jonas Blue’s What I Like About You. She’s just released her second single, ‘Like I Love You’ – a bop with a rich melody and hook that will get stuck in your head.
