Here’s what we were vibing this month on Electronic Music Australia.
We kicked off with Cut Copy – Solid, because… obviously. Emerging from Brisbane with the ultra-smooth and infectious Crooks and Strays is Afters, a duo absolutely worth keeping on your radar. Further north in Mackay, Von Sharp delivered some high-octane EDM with his club-ready track More.
We revisited standout tracks from Home Hearing Records – Adventures in Sound Vol. 1, including Vapour Eyes by Rabbits On Saturn, Do It Right by Petrichor Project, and Someone Is Calling by Simon D. The Headmaster made us delete everything off our phones before entering the USA with America Is Not, and Mr. Rachele added his analog wizardry on the remix.
When I saw the title of Ninajirachi’s latest track, F**k My Computer, I thought we were finally getting a song about my daily urge to throw my computer into the ocean. Turns out, she’s more into getting cozy with hers. Honestly, with ChatGPT’s daily affirmations and top-tier advice, I kinda get it. Nezto gave us a banging remix of Okayden’s Unlucky, and speaking of lucky, Audent & No Chasa are riding high with an international label signing and a massive response to their stellar track Take Yo Places.
2025 is shaping up to be an absolute powerhouse year for Aussie music, and we’re here for it!

Track of the Month: Sweatbaby - Think Again
Sweatbaby burst onto the scene in 2024 with “Ready Steady” and a bold mission: to release ten tracks monthly throughout 2025. We’ve been watching (or should we say listening) ever since, and we’ve absolutely fallen for the Sydney producer’s sound, designed to make you sweat.
Uplifting, energetic, and unapologetically fun, tracks like “Think Again” double as empowering anthems, in this case, a breakup banger with bounce and bite.
We LOVE Sweatbaby, and we think you will too. Keep your eyes (and ears) locked on this rising talent.
