Melodies is everything its name implies, not merely loaded with melodies but inspiring as a backdrop to your day in crafting your own meandering melodies and considerations alongside it.

After a hauntingly impressive and memorable debut, Sydney artist and rapper Ooyta OG returns with a bang as the collaborative new single Diggers In The Subi hits the scene.
By all accounts, this feels like an authentically original pop hit, not drawing melodic comparisons but still feeling relevant and welcome amidst the current landscape.
Genre-blending through subtle jazz intricacies and funky, infectious rhythms – New Zealand’s premiere instrumental act GroovExpress paint an image of optimism and style throughout this superb new collection.
Exemplary not purely for the melodic design but the space, the quiet contemplation, and indeed the purity of the recording – the weight of the keys, the raw and intimate, somewhat muffled honesty of it all.
Ever the artist for the sheer versatility and expressive variation from one release to the next, 3mind Blight breaks things down to the bare essentials for an acoustically led, poetically loaded and deeply personal, revealing new single.
Long-awaited and every bit as creatively unpredictable as hoped, Andrea Pizzo and band deliver their latest conceptual deep-dive and rock-kissed arena of entertainment, in the form of the vast and artistic Potatoes On Mars.
Just one of a multitude of new releases from the non-stop corner of 3mind Blight, this fearlessly soaring, high-octane metal and electronic elevation of intensity is perhaps his most immersive and attention-grabbing yet.
An anthem for the times with contemporary emo rap tones, production clarity and depth of intention united across a clear sense of rising anticipation.
Ambient contemplations in brief yet moving supply engage as a deeply human and melodically hypnotic Forever emerges.
Dreamy guitar lines and distant vocal hooks make up the catchy and contemporary sound of Ty Easley across the memorable new single Tell Me Lies.
The performance has a tiredness about it, reinforcing the isolation request of the lyrics, and the production keeps things moving yet mildly interesting and ambient for a touch of intrigue that will hopefully linger across future releases.
