1) In The Air by DMA'S
Love this new song - one of their finest - a real maturity.
2) Lay It Down by Black Gold Buffalo
London based group with a few singles under their collective belts now finishing off their debut album.
3) Bullet Proof by This Is The Kit
What a voice and what a talent! Kate Sables is the first of two artists from the English City of Winchester to grace this month's playlist. Heartbreaking song. Bullet Proof (I'm Glad I'm Not).
4) Does This Last by Boo Seeka
Straight Outta Sydney - lush layered dream-hop not afraid of a catchy chorus.
5) Charlie by Alice Ivy
Australian Alice Ivy has released her debut album I'm Dreaming which is 36 minutes of blissful Avalanches influenced, beats, samples, raps and songs.
6) I'm Waiting For My Man by Beck
Velvet Underground wrote the original about scoring from their dealer over 50 years ago!
7) Riverview Fog by The Sadies
Opening track from the latest album by the Canadian indie folk rockers.
8) High Enough by K.Flay
"Love Is The Drug" is the message from this American artist.
9) Something For Your Mind by Superorganism
This list is taking something of a narcotic twist - so why fight it? Here is a collective operating out of London with their debut album due any day now...
10) S.I.A. by GUM
Perth associate of the Tame Impala crew with his latest slab of funky synth rock.
11) Surface To Air by Django Django featuring Self Esteem
Django Django have gone from strength to strength with their third album containing their best collection of tunes. Think The Beta Band remixed by Hot Chip... Hmmmm...
12) Treetops by Cloud Control
Cloud Control drift out of Sydney's Blue Mountains making dreamy psychedelic pop.
13) Far From Earth by Stonefield
The Lindlay sisters wallow in old school heavy metal riffs and cliched space exploration/final countdown themes. I just can't help enjoying it all. Rock On!
14) Distant Colours by Manic Street Preachers
New Manics is a return to heart on their sleeve passionate rock.
15) 1933 by Frank Turner
Written in 2016 in the aftermath of the Brexit vote whilst touring the US tour during the last presidential election. It was enough to anger this folk rocker from Winchester into penning a punky protest song.
16) Everything Is Now (Part Two) by Belle and Sebastian
My favourite Scottish band ever have released a trio of EPs over the last few months fifteen new songs without the burden of expectation that an album brings.
17) Me and Michael by MGMT
Taken from the excellent new album Little Dark Age. Very 80's feel here. Is that still in vogue?
18) Fever Dream Girl by Kyle Craft
New album Full Circle Nightmare on the Sub Pop label.
19) Call Me If You Need Me by Vance Joy
His second album Nation of Two has just been released and will be huge hit propelling Vance Joy towards the top. The album contains a several excellent singles which will now get wider exposure.
20) Buzzkill by Ash
Short, sweary punky pop song about the death of Summer. Appropriately timed for the Southern Hemisphere where the 1st March marks the official start of Autumn.
