Mar 13, 2024 · Marcus Whale’s music reads like a prayer. Submerged in tenderness, divinity and devotion, Marcus uses music to transport a feeling of elevation, as if you’re being lifted above ground by a...
marcus whale. Ecstasy, my fourth album, will come out on March 8th, 2024, the first release on Blue Void. Ecstasy (from the Greek ‘ekstasis’) means to be outside yourself, making porous the boundaries of the body and soul. It’s the pleasure that goes beyond the self, that undoes the self and draws towards the void.

For fans of:Mo’Ju, the Triffids, Aldous Harding This is a critical release for Cloher, with her fifth album I Am The River, The River Is Me coming nearly six years after her acclaimed self-titled fourth. She has a new band (only drummer Jen Sholakis remains), a new sound, and on Being Human she’s backed by a full-throated haka from Naarm-based grou...
For fans of: Madonna, Underworld, any and all dad rock “Ironic” comebacks of time-honoured Australian classics are often accompanied by the ugly stench of machismo: the worst people you know are still dropping their pants to Eagle Rock and begging the DJ to play Horses in 2022. That couldn’t be less true of this ecstatic re-working of the Choirboys...
For fans of:Daphni, Floating Points, Overmono On her new single Nice To See You, Melbourne producer Pretty Girl takes her usual brand of dreamy, aqueous house a cut heavier. A piquant synth line runs through the entire track, giving the song a gripping, trance-leaning backbone. Vocal fragments occasionally float to the surface, suggesting an emotio...
For fans of:FKA twigs, Perfume Genius, Jenny Hval, HTRK Marcus Whale has been long committed to exploring transformative desire and ruinous devotion (see his last two albums The Hunger and Lucifer) so it’s only fitting that the Sydney musician would take on Björk’s mantra of love, from her 1997 classic Homogenic. Whale extends the song’s liturgical...
For fans of: Angel Olsen, Caroline Polachek, Julia Jacklin One of Melbourne’s finest takes the tempo down a notch with an evocative new single, which draws listeners into a rich emotional world. Bruce’s sultry voice carries this slow, sumptuous track, with robust production and blooping, whirling electronic elements, providing a change of pace from...
For fans of: Oasis, Peace, Manic Street Preachers DMA’s have always sounded anachronistic: flung out of space from a world where Manchester is still the centre of the universe and Liam and Noel Gallagher are on speaking terms. After a recent foray into darker, dancier textures, Olympia sees the Sydney three-piece back where they started, with a squ...
For fans of:the Saints, Radio Birdman, Dead Boys This is a pummelling punk song made for an oppressive, sweaty summer – the kind most Australians are bound to suffer through. The Melbourne band’s lyrics are relatively spare, but the narrative is seemingly about someone trying to rip another away from a bad crowd. Mostly, though, this is a song abou...
For fans of: the Avalanches, Sylvan Esso, Troye Sivan This is queer euphoria. An ecstatic collaboration between three queer Australian artists – Sydney’s self-described “tomboy pop” purveyor Handsome, fellow Sydneysider and producer Flowerkid, and Perth’s St. South (whose debut album Get Well Soon was one of 2020’s hidden gems) – Running Out of Tim...
For fans of:the Drones, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard According to Tropical Fuck Storm leader Gareth Liddiard, The Golden Ratio has been crafted according to its titular equation for musical perfection. Naturally, Liddiard has his tongue in his cheek: the listening experience is messier, more abrasive than its title implies, yet oddly catchy. ...
For fans of: Skinny Puppy, Skee Mask, Zomby Melbourne’s DJ Plead links up with Delhi bass producer Stain on Rent Request, a disorienting industrial cut that shivers with waves of distortion and decay. A far cry from Plead’s puckish 2022 EP Quick – a gleaming four-track built around glassy synths and cheeky samples – Rent Request is grimy and noxiou...
