Beizou introduces herself with her debut single ‘Too Comfortable’, a soft, reflective track about holding onto a relationship for the comfort it brings, not for love. It explores the quiet guilt of staying in something that feels safe.

Exploring a metaphor around how kids and plants both need light and love to grow, this song teaches some of the science about how photosynthesis helps plants develop, as well as a heart-filled message about kindness and care for the young people in our lives. 

There are songs that sound like they were built in the light, and then there are songs like ‘Human Bean Instruction Manual’, the kind that feel like they’ve been carefully gathered from the corners of a dim bedroom, reconstructed out of old voicemails, broken keys, and a vague but pressing sense of dread.

Things are building up for Whanganui band BB & The Bullets. After an excellent reception and some radio attention from their first two singles, “Something In The Water” and “High Tide”, plus a brief side trip to Chicago, the blues/rock three piece are releasing another track from their debut album.

Adam Hattaway returns with The Haunters to release the first single from their upcoming album Hot Variety.

The Chapel Studio (Auckland), in partnership with AllGood Absolute Alternative Records (AAA Records) and Luma ATMOS Studios, is proud to present Lucky Break — an exciting opportunity for New Zealand’s rising music talent to take their careers to the next level.

Emily Bateman's latest release, Sixth Sense, marks a textural and tonal shift in her sound. A moody bossa nova-inspired track, Sixth Sense reflects on the quiet unraveling of a relationship. Driven by an electronic drum loop and layered, sultry vocals, Emily explores the fear and uncertainty of starting over.

“Summer” by Don and the Divorcees is the 3rd (and last) of 3 single releases ahead of  the online release of the full “Bit Payers” album scheduled for July.
