The Australian rapper Rivilin comes through charging with emotion on the new Hip Hop laced single called ‘I Am Nothing‘.

This is all about being with someone you really care for, things are great at first. However for whatever reason, things haven’t worked out and now it’s over. You thought that this would be different but its turned out just like before. In heartbreak. The raging raw emotion is something to behold here as we have vocals that are so fiery and raps that tell the whole story. You now think that that person hates you as they are cold towards you now. Then you are together again but you know that she doesn’t want you in the bed when she wakes up. Things are messy now and you need to work out what to do.

‘I Am Nothing‘ from Rivilin is a wild ride into the emotion of a relationship that goes up and down, it’s fun and emotional but so tough to work out. This is a new school Hip Hop track with trap-filled influences that fire in with passionate vocals and lyrics. The young Australian artist has brought out a top track and the video is terrific.

Australian singer-songwriter and cat lover Zellda sings with such beauty on ‘Like You Do’

Posted on 8 September 2020

Zellda brings us a ray of sunshine on the love-sprinkled new release ‘Like You Do‘.

‘Like You Do‘ is the second single from Western Australian singer songwriter Zellda. This is a superb music melody that captures the fear and excitement that begins when finding a new love. In Zellda’s folk-inspired tone, ‘Like You Do‘ is a raw and honest account of the self-talk that comes into play when wrestling with the emotions of wanting to dive head first into something new but also holding back to avoid potential heartbreak.

‘My few steps back into the dating pool were misguided, feeling that familiar flicker begin to spark only to be let down’. After a decade of writing songs, Zellda decided to let her creations wander beyond the walls of her bedroom, launching her debut single ‘When I Was Younger‘ in 2019.

‘Like You Do‘ re-imagines the love song, refreshing “butterflies in the stomach” by adding a depth and compassionate relevance to the idiom and capturing within this endearing single.

I love how honest this song is and it is sung with such beauty. After telling herself that she would be alone with her cat forever, things changed and I’m so glad that she found love. A very passionate lover too. The lyrics are real and the story is so lovely, this is a singer with heart and soul.

‘Like You Do‘ from Zellda is one of the cutest songs you will hear all year. From being alone to being happy just like that. Life changes quickly sometimes and we are just here for the ride.

Australian producer Ian Chamberlain mixes it up with ”No Signal Remix”

In life there comes a time when there is no signal. You try and tune in correctly but there is nothing there. To rise above you have to look deeper to see what is really going on.

Based in Adelaide in Australia, Ian Chamberlain is a fairly new producer that is refining his game to bring out better and better music. He inspired by musical genres past and present, mechanical sounds, and the world of nature.

With a trippy beat that is very distorted at the start, I knew this was going to be interesting. The song soon changes up and I feel that I am on an island somewhere nice and tropical. Perhaps with low hanging fruit on trees and the bars serve beverages with funny little hats in them.

”No Signal Remix” is the remix of the track ”No Signal” from 2018. The song is pretty much the same with a few subtle influences to keep things interesting. This is a solid release that keeps things so chilled in the heart with the blood pressure needing more of this in this crazy world.

Head through to Soundcloud so you can hear more from the Australian producer.

ANTVNIO’s ‘BROTHERS’ is a taste of Melbourne’s rap scene

Posted on 9 May 2020

Melbourne-based ANTVNIO has released Brothers, a Pacific-ocean crossing mesh of dominated hip-hop waves.

With heavy influence from both modern UK and US trap and rap styles, Australia’s young trap artists are beginning to expand in droves – and ANTVNIO’s ‘BROTHERS’ feels very much a part of that. While the track has its both high and low points, there’s an enjoyable ‘real-life’ sensibility about this release, and it speaks to the lengths of just how much the digital era has really affected music creation. 

While there’s more persistence needed from the young artist in smoothing out the rougher edges to compete in an extremely exciting wave of artists like The Kid Laroi, BROTHERS might be worth a listen if you want to expand your tastes and dive into the independent waters of Australian-seasoned trap.
