There might only be less than 5 weeks to go until Christmas but the new music keeps coming and we’ve got another ten tracks to add to our Discovery playlist on Spotify and Apple Music. Our Track of the Week is “Suddenly Your Mind’s A Fortress” from WA bedroom-pop duo Coco Elise.
The gorgeous track is from their new EP Lilly’s Gallery which released this week. The duo of Josh Ellis & Isaiah Quintana have the soft rock dialled right up on this one – the vibe is sophisticated and chilled out – with some lovely, hushed horns and captivating vocals. It might be something of a shock if you’ve only ever experienced the duo live; where the live performance is often far from relaxed.
If you want to discover that for yourself they’re launching the EP at Fremantle’s iconic Mojo’s Bar on December 19th. Perfect for getting into the holiday spirit!
Next on the playlist we have “Dr Gold”, the new single from Melbourne ‘space folk’ singer-songwriter Joshua Seymour. Recorded in Melbourne with long-time friend and producer Nick Finch, the track is from Seymour’s forthcoming album Home Is Not A Place. It’s more synth-heavy than you might expect from a folk singer-songwriter, but then.. that’s where the space comes in we guess. It’s an austere but captivating track, with Seymour’s vocal (there’s a Leon Russell flavour there) really holding your attention across the track’s 5 minute run time. Seymour will be launching the single at The Old Bar in Fitzroy next Friday. Tickets are available HERE.
In the wake of the devastating news that the much loved Mani from The Stone Roses and Primal Scream has passed away, we’ve added tracks from two of the brightest from the north of England this week. “SWEET HEROINE” is the latest from STONE. They are on the countdown to the release of their sophomore album, AUTONOMY, out 20th Feb 2026. They have relentless energy and this is an absolute banger. They are super busy on the socials, so catch them on Instagram and become part of their community.
Also from the north of England is Manchester’s fast-rising teenage trailblazers Florentenes, who have have dropped “Think Twice”, a soaring indie anthem that pushes their sound into a sharper, more anthemic gear. They worked with legendary producer Dave Eringa (Manic Street Preachers, Jamie Webster, The Who) on this one, and it oozes raw, live-wire intensity—jagged riffs, melodic bite, and a vocal performance that threads the emotional end of a relationship through both hopeful and cynical perspectives. Barely a year out of school, the four-piece have already built a reputation for electrifying live shows and short, sharp shocks of guitar music that feel urgent again.
Naarm/Melbourne-via-Belgium artist Romanie returns this week with “I Won’t Yell”, a gritty, punk-flecked detour from her earlier indie-folk beginnings. Originally written years ago as a folk tune, the track was reshaped in Sydney alongside Adam Hyde (Peking Duk, Keli Holiday) and Tom Stell (Golden Features), who flipped the arrangement into a sharp, electrifying anthem. Fans of Wet Leg or The Beaches will find plenty to love here—urgent guitars, raw edges, and Romanie’s unmistakable lyrical bite. We love the way the track builds – it’s gripping and entertaining.
Also added to the playlist this week is “Don’t Let It Get You Down”, the latest single from writer, poet and artist Joshua Idehen. The track is the latest to be released from his debut album – I Know You’re Hurting, Everyone Is Hurting, Everyone Is Trying, You Have Got To Try – which is out March 6th on Heavenly Records. “Don’t Let It Get You Down” is joyful, empowering, ‘strobe flecked’ house music. As the press release puts it – “it’s music to make you feel good, no matter how good you’re already feeling.” We can’t argue with that. It’s a vibe!
Family-based trio Favourite Kid release their debut album 2 Cents Journal today, with “Vulnerable Lane” standing as the record’s focus track. We’ve also published their track-by-track feature on the AU review, offering deeper insight into the album. Leaning further into their country-pop sensibilities, the song pairs warm fiddle runs with a driving, upbeat rhythm that lifts their open-hearted lyricism and effortless melodic charm. A standout moment from the album, it introduces a fresh and fully formed new voice.
Finally, also added to the playlist this week is the shimmering and empowering “Puna Ora” from Te Tiriti-based duo Aro; and “Easy Peeler” the nostalgic new single from German indie rocker Brockhoff. We’ve also added “Not Not Another Fool” from Laura Ingram, which we premiered earlier in the week.
