The band consists of childhood duo Scout Eastment and Olive Rush, who spent their time on the bus creating music together and teaching themselves (so cute!). You can feel their genuine connection in their songwriting. “Here’s The Thing” was actually organically recorded in their bedroom, later mixed by Matthew NeighborLabeling funded by triple j Level Up Grant.

HANJA- “Another Way”
Every melody perfectly combines to construct a soothing production that will lift you up out of any mental fog. HANJA has a clear grasp on the downtempo and melodic house vibes, having remixed other tracks by artists such as PETIT BISCUIT “I Leave Again (with Shallou)”. The healing lyrics are intended to spur deep contemplation and soulful liberations. HANJA speaks on the creation of their latest song here:
“We feel trapped in the day-ins and day-outs of daily life, but have dreams. Is there another way to break free form that suffocating feeling to make ourselves happier? That’s the question I had in my mind as I created this song and hope that question sticks with listeners in this downtempo, wistful melodic house song”
Curtis Lowe- “Lost In You”
Heavenly vocals and expansive soundscapes make up the compelling production in this hot new track by LA producer Curtis Lowe. It features angelic vocals by Erika Sirola, whom you may recognize from Robin Schulz’s infamous hit “Speechless” in 2018. The intricately composed lyrics are purposed to bring forth positivity and euphoria. We aren’t the only ones that find refuge in the melodies, Lowe authentically shares how his latest single came to fruition-
“I wrote this song over a year before the pandemic started, but struggled to finish it. I made dozens of versions throughout the year but none of them really worked. I had the vocal and the idea in my head of making it into an 80’s tinged house track, but couldn’t nail it. When lockdown started in March, I had so much time alone in my studio that I was able to focus on all the details of this track until they were right. Being able to shut off the outside world and focus on music during those months kept me sane. The song is full of optimism, it feels good to be putting it out now. More on the way, stay tuned.”
Echo King- “Window PAin”
Drawing inspiration from Bruno Mars, Queen, and Michael Jackson, Echo Kings diligently creates the perfect modern 80’s dance beats in their new hit “Window Pain”. The flawless production is drenched in various synth harmonies and frequencies, meshed with simple yet catchy lyrics, to assist you in your dance jam sessions. This synth pop, retro rock masterpiece will surely leave you energized with good vibes only!
ALEKXANDR- “Fireflies In Brooklyn”
Based on a true story of an unexpected, life changing encounter in Brooklyn, New York, ALEKXANDR, shares his vulnerability and creativity with the world in his latest hit “Fireflies in Brooklyn”. We enjoyed the soothing melodies and fantasy-like imagery stimulated by the lyrics in our minds. The artistic production is purposed to encourage hopefulness and child-like faith for beautiful surprises. ALEKXANDER shares that at the time of this chance encounter that inspired the song, the artist was overcoming depression when he met a guy in New York. The two enjoyed a short-lived yet powerfully transformative connection, sharing their hopes and dreams for their future. The artist describes the experience as “The colours of the sky morphed around us. We seemed to shine for one another like the fireflies around us.” ALEKXANDR’s intentions with the release of this song is to reignite the hope in us all for “random romantic connections”, to demonstrate it’s not just a thing of the past.
Le Boeuf- “If I’m With You (ft. Matt Elle)”
Danish producer Le Boeuf composes a chill mix of deep house and trendy disco beats in his new release “If I’m With You”.

Matt Elle is based in New York and contributed his artistic talents in songwriting to this song. The expansive production provides a serene soundscape that is simple yet profoundly melodic with heart-pounding bass notes. Le Boeuf describes more in detail about the making of his new release below:
“’If I’m With You’ is an instrumental track that I built from scratch and then I sent it to Matt and asked him to write some sad lyrics with a melancholic vibe to it. Initially the plan was to have another singer on the track, but after my team heard the demo, they were very excited about Matt’s vibe on the track, so we decided to move on with the original idea.”
