Acoustic guitar based beat sounds hella 2001 before that Pierre Bourne-Type beat comes in. Classic immigrant upbringing story in the verses gives an insight into June's background.

Really Big, wide open sound from the Sunny Coast crew! Loved the guitar tones and the 90s vibes.

"Leezey the kid this is easy as sh*t" kind of sums up most of this track. You get the unnerving sense that he could rap like this all damn day and, knowing him, I can only wonder at the 100s of unreleased tracks like this he has that "weren't good enough to put out".

LEEZY DOES IT. Listening to Leeze rap is like watching a life-long skater rip the local park- he makes tearing up these beats seem effortless. Tight, tidy and succinct- the only criticism is I could happily hear him destroy another 32 on this beat.

JK-47, Jay Orient and Kane Doe (named in order of appearance) keep turning the screws on the Gratis formula until it seems you can't fit any more attitude, funk or vibe into the track. The free-flowing, pass the mic energy of the second verse really gets me hype to see this live cos I KNOW they go off.

Smooth and smokey. Sly got a lot on his mind and will be the first to tell you he might be bad news. D'angelo, and a whole bunch of new-wave soul/RnB comes to mind, this feels like a good demo rather than a great track.

My sincere belief is that this project is a bit too far ahead of its time, too deep a blend of genres, tones and ideas to be fully appreciated right now. With that being said, Violet Houses are radiating no-fucks energy in a big way and doing wtf they want to. Thick filtered delays, astrophysics raps and wobbly synths never sounded so good.

Wow you guys totally nailed the soundtrack to my extra-terrestrial nightmares! The genre-blending is so far out on this space-opera thats its really hard to find adequate adjectives other than SUPER DUPER DOPE.

Kept waiting for mans to take a breather and 2 minutes in I'm still waiting! Huge energy and really exciting mixture of styles, energies and flows/deliveries. All I can say is.... moar?

Very heavy vibes on this track from Bris-rockers. Somewhere between early Metallica and SoundGarden is the vibe to me, especially with the 3rd vocal harmonies and faster driving riffs! Big!

First she tackled healthy eating and positivity. Now she's doing empowerment and gender equality. Is it too soon to say May Lyn for Prime Minister???

Really interesting and at times cinematic production work. The movement of the track is one of my favourite aspects, the rhythms work really nicely and the flow of the song from one section to another is great. Textures and sounds are well-selected and it stands well instrumentally although I do feel like it would be great with the right vocalist.

This song is so good on so many levels I don't know where to start. Wolf kills the game with a few short verses and comes through as the teen heart-throb we all wanted but no one deserved. Hell yeah

This guy is fairly well unstoppable in a sort of "excuse me but I'm the best rapper in the country and if you disagree thats chill but like yeah sooo....." way. Huge fan.

This is crazy- such a dope 90s vibe. Mix could use work- vocals are dope but a little unfocussed. Really enjoy the heavy/light switch up flow of the track. Playing is enjoyably loose and I really enjoy the chorus. Keen to hear more boiz

The way the groove builds on this track to really pull you in, mirroring the forward motion of the vocal, makes for a enjoyable journey from start to finish. Chet Faker tones at times in the vocal performance (which isn't a bad thing) but the combination of voice and production style is straight elkkle.

The detailed and expressive production on this track at times feels like it outshines the fairly straight forward vocal although by the same point the vocal provides an earthy grounding to elkkle's soaring composition. Hugely impressive nonetheless.

From the first offbeat breaks to the phase-of-the-moon shift in tempos this track is pure bliss. Madeleine Powers (more like Power-house am i rite?) is the dream tour-guide of this moon-lit joyride, coming through with soul-diva leads and rock solid backing vocal stacks alike. The whole band delivers on this track which feels a bit like a 6 and a half minute musical tapas meal, tasting a little...

So who can I give my damn money to to get a taste of this live???
