Don't know if you could tell from the reviews but this one's all about That. Voice. There's some epic production that kind of competes but this is clearly the work of a strong writer. Not quite what I was expecting after Chasing Butterflies, but that's a good thing.

This is straight up one of the best songs I've heard this week. And I've been listening to some top quality sh!t. Great production, glam-y synths, nice lyrics and good chemistry. Love it.

Was very excited to twist the lid on this, and pleased to report that it's exactly the kind of sticky sort o' thing I love to spread on my headphones. If your ears are in need of some sweet psych rock, try this jam.

Trust Rubes to meld fanciful lyrics and pop culture with pathos to winning effect. That final explosive chorus is the very definition of delayed satisfaction.

That title suggests a roam through the desert, but to me, the sand this breezy gem conjures is the beach. Maybe it’s the layers of guitar twang and woozy synths, or vocalist Dainis Lacey’s reclined delivery… but probably more likely it’s the sneaky seagull squawk snuck into the mix.

Whatta debut: this is like spaghetti western Angel Olsen, and that super-sharp chorus! I'm getting on the Jaguar Jonze bandwagon now before it gets too crowded.

Ignore that title, the forecast here is bright, gauzy guitar lines with a high chance of charming. Beautiful stuff.

Exhibit Umpteen that Ainslie is a real one. She's telling it how it is on a brave n' bluesy sonic switch-up with a powerful, moving message. Count me among those who love her for what she truly is and what most others try to be: an artist's artist.

It's a singing/writing/rocking hattrick from Angie! Love how this transforms self-doubt into an empowering rock strut. That album can't come soon enough.

Heard Bridget spin this on Lunch and had to swing by and chuck this some well deserved stars. I'm a sucker for the crunchy riffs n' killer chorus combination, and that's no delusion!

Been hanging for a studio version ever since that fried chicken line floored me at a live gig. Yknow, the chook and the incredible vocals, crafted storytelling, devastatingly accessible fretwork, attitude, swagger. I could go on but just trust me, get on the Maccy Train before it leaves the station. It's gonna be a ride.

Oscar Dawson brought me here, and I'm glad he did. Such an intimate, immersive tune. I'll be recc'ing this to all the King Krule/James Blake fans I know.

From that spooky opening to the subject matter and gripping vocals, this just oozes confidence. You sound stronger and bigger than the mack truck you're posing by. Can't wait to hear more.

We might need a new label for Taj's brand of guitar-baubled, neo-soul drenched groove pop. Like Ralph-core or Taj-wave or something? Whatever. It's that refreshingly original.

Smooth stuff. Like, marble pebble/peanut butter/baby's bottom smooth. That breezy guitar coda is like sailing on the perfect wave back to shore.

This is like fancy ass sonic skateboarding: a chilled The xx flip into a sleek tropical pop-off that slides into a SŸDE of electro-acoustic bliss. Full headgear necessary.

Incred how that playful, tuneful percussion manages to show off its stuff without chewing up Freya's vocal space. And it all still bumps with some gritty sub. That's some smart craft right there.

Love how the flow and production work together. Keep at it, you clearly know how the rhymes fit with your warm phasing bass n' synth beats. And vice versa.

Lovin the power couple back together, and on a slinky af bit o' dancehall RnB no less. That shuffle is infectious.
