False Peak records
Album Review: The magnificent Key Out make a triumphant return with ‘afterville’- a glorious, delicate and ethereal set of sparkling jewels.
Key Out for me are one of the unsung heroes of the indie music scene in Australia and indeed the world. Newly signed to the magnificent False Peak Records, they have burst back in to our lives with the magnificent ‘afterville’, a follow up to 2020’s ‘anthropomorphia’ (described by me as ‘stunning’ and ranked in …
Premiere: Key Out go for an endless, shimmering and breathtaking ‘Drive’ ahead of new album out through False Peak Records and launch gigs.
We are immobilised with excitement at being able to bring you an exclusive listen to the new single from Sydney’s magnificent Key Out: one of the most exciting outfits in the antipodean scene at the moment. ‘Drive’ has that indefinable Key Out sound: mesmerising shimmering folds of instrumentation that daub brushstrokes from a colourful multi-layered …
Album Review: Terra Pines throw a glittering veil of sludge pop over us with the engaging aural attack of ‘Downbeats’.
The self-described sludge pop of the music of Meanjin/Brisbane trio Terra Pines is an apt capture of the sweet dichotomy between the fuzzy barbed-wire instruments of the band and the rich melodic vocal delivery. This is an album filled to the brim with tight, layered harmonies and cinematic widescreen expanses delivered over an emphatic thump …
Premiere: Meanjin/Brisbane magicians Terra Pines unleash a sonic wall of brilliance in new single ‘Indoor Kid’ ahead of ‘Downbeats’, their new album.
Brisbane’s Terra Pines‘ ‘Indoor Kid’ is a sonic wall of brilliance: a track that hammers and claws its way into your head and takes permanent residence, lounging around with waft of psychedelic substances in the air.

Track: Brisbane’s An Heirloom bequeath to us their floaty dreamy ambient brilliance in new single ‘Return Flight’, and announce launch gig.
Remy Boccalatte must be one of the busiest creatives and entrepreneurs around.

EP: Grids/Units/Planes unveil the heady and mesmerising electronica of ‘Diverge And Coalesce’
The sounds of Brisbane project Grids/Units/Planes (GUP) are that of a cloudy, diffuse space that glitches and hums in a languorous rich texture: awe-inspiring and transfixing. I have always thought that the magic in effective instrumental music is the ability to tell stories and create images without words, and in ‘Diverge and Coalesce’, GUP have …
Album Review: Overland Inn’s ‘Proxima’ is a sensual, liquid melange of bubbling electronic delights.
The liquidity of movement and sensual overload in French Czech-based duo Overland Inn‘s new album ‘Proxima’ is nothing short of magnificent. Heralded by a series of delectable amuse-bouches over the last 12 months following their signing to the brilliant Brisbane label False Peak Records, Overland Inn have perfected an electronic based dream pop oeuvre that has …

Premiere: The prodigious and highly talented Remy Boccalatte unveils new solo track ‘Kodama’ ahead of a solo album: an ethereal and mystical journey.
Remy Boccalatte must have some magical machine that renders him super powers in the world of creative endeavours.
