Speaking of their new single, Jonathan Bowden, one half of Sydney duo PLGRMS, says “Fools And Their Gold speaks of someone denying the inevitable end of a relationship. They can’t – or won’t – let go, despite knowing that it’s not good for them.” The track has that sense of melancholy, despite its sweetness, as …

Denver based art collective déCollage have revealed the title track of their album – “Magnetize”. A shuffling collage of saxophone, scratches, samples and soul. It soundtracks a particularly fevered dream where the beat ebbs and flows, and old jazz records play over 1980s videogames.  Lead by producer Reed Fuchs, déCollage are part of Moon Magnet, a …
