We\u2019ve added ten new tracks to our Discovery Playlist this week \u2014 available on Spotify and Apple Music \u2014 including one we had the pleasure of premiering earlier in the week. Leading the charge as our Track of the Week is \u201cSkin Contact\u201d from Sydney duo Pamela.<\/strong>, a release that feels tailor-made for late-night listening and slow-burn connection.<\/p>\n Pamela<\/span>\u00a0is the project of\u00a0Sarah Ellen<\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0Josh Kempen<\/b>,\u00a0who were housemates before becoming bandmates.\u00a0 Built around a hypnotic bassline and subtle lo-fi textures, \u201cSkin Contact\u201d leans into tension rather than release, capturing that suspended moment before anything happens \u2014 when eye contact lingers and the wanting is already loud. The accompanying video, directed by Ellen, has more than a passing nod to the brilliant dance scene in Pulp Fiction, extending the song\u2019s intimacy into a cinematic world of restraint, tension and charged movement. Pamela will also take the song to the stage with a March residency at The Pleasure Club in Newtown on Friday March 13 and Friday March 20 \u2014 both free entry \u2014 offering the perfect opportunity to experience that on-stage chemistry up close.<\/p>\n Also added to the playlist is \u201cJulius\u201d from Molly Millington<\/strong>, lifted from her debut album Frank Morgan<\/em>, out today. You can read more about the album via Dylan\u2019s review HERE<\/a>. Sitting at the record\u2019s most playful point, \u201cJulius\u201d Molly leans into levity, pairing sharp songwriting with a wink, proving that self-reflection doesn\u2019t always have to come wrapped in heartbreak.<\/p>\n Brissie\/Meanjin duo STAHR<\/strong> crank things up with \u201cMother Aura\u201d, the explosive new single taken from their forthcoming debut EP BLIP<\/em>, due March 26. Following on from 2025\u2019s \u201cLoving Friend\u201d, the track doubles down on the genre-blurring energy they\u2019re fast becoming known for \u2014 a squelchy dream-pop pulse colliding with crunchy, desert-rock guitars in a glittery, supersonic rush.<\/p>\n Also added is \u201cBiting Heels\u201d, the title track from the upcoming debut EP for Melbourne artist Lucky.<\/strong> 2026 is looking like a massive year for the talented rising artist, with a trip to SXSW in Austin booked, before a headline tour that will visit Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide in June. Head HERE for tickets.<\/p>\n \u201cCity Walls\u201d from Archive<\/strong>, is the latest single from their forthcoming 13th studio album Glass Minds<\/em>, out February 27. Formed in Croydon in 1994, the long-running collective continue to evolve, and \u201cCity Walls\u201d is a reminder of their knack for atmosphere and emotional weight.<\/p>\n The track is cinematic, moody and perfectly described by main man Darius Keeler as \u201chauntingly beautiful\u201d. The accompanying video<\/a>, directed by Maxim Kelly, matches that intensity with striking visuals, and arrives alongside news of a nine-date North American tour in Spring 2026 with Italian band JoyCut<\/strong>, taking in cities including New York, Los Angeles and Chicago.<\/p>\n Also added this week is \u201cClich\u00e9s\u201d from Jem Cassar-Daley<\/strong>, marking her first new music of 2026. The track leans into her signature blend of emotional honesty and warm indie-pop, wrapping every familiar break-up line \u2014 \u201cit\u2019s not you, it\u2019s me\u201d, \u201cI need space\u201d, \u201clove yourself first\u201d \u2014 into one sharp, self-aware release. Written in Nashville with Jordyn Dodd and Brock Buchanan, the song channels hindsight and hard-won clarity, pairing reflective lyricism with a melody built to soar live.\u00a0 The accompanying video<\/a>, directed by Corporate Giant (Tas Wilson), mirrors the warmth and sincerity at the heart of the track. It\u2019s a solid reminder of why we are such big fans of this proud Gumbaynggirr and Bundjalung woman.<\/p>\n Another duo we can\u2019t get enough is \u00a0Sydney-based indie-pop Foley<\/strong>. They\u2019ve released their new EP today Like An Actress<\/em>, including new single \u201cGoing Easy\u201d. They switched up the process for this new record, as they explain:\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cWe approached this EP with more organic instruments \u2013 so that the studio experience was more physical and band driven. The live show is such a crucial part of the project, so we wanted to write the songs even more locked into the show, with live instruments and feel. A lot of them were written with live piano, acoustic guitar, and live drums which is a real change up for us. It really unlocked a new energy in the studio \u2013 and the songs have a joy in them that I think you can really\u00a0hear\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Also added to the playlist this week is \u201cAttention\u201d from Crocodylus<\/strong>, the latest single from their forthcoming album Limbo<\/em>, please be good to me, due April 24. The Eora\/Sydney garage-punk outfit continue to evolve their sound on the new record, working with producer Wade Keighran and pushing beyond conventional song structures into something more expansive and dynamic.<\/p>\n \u201cAttention\u201d captures that shift perfectly \u2014 a raucous yet melodic rush built around what bassist\/vocalist Josh Williams calls his favourite riff on the album, influenced by Sonic Youth and The Smile. With guitars and saxophone locked in unison and lyrics that candidly explore struggling with ADD (\u201cTell me, how have you been? Sorry I wasn\u2019t listening\u201d), the track is quick, catchy and charged with the kinetic energy that\u2019s made Crocodylus such a force on stage.<\/p>\n Last Friday, MAY-A<\/strong> released her long-awaited debut album, Goodbye (If You Call That Gone).\u00a0<\/i>There are many highlights on the record, and one we are loving the focus-track, \u201cLast Man on Earth\u201d.\u00a0 MAY-A has a national tour kicking off in Brisbane on the 2nd of April. Head HERE<\/a> for tickets.<\/p>\n Also added is \u201cFall In Love Again \u201d from Jess Cullity<\/strong> which we premiered earlier in the week.<\/p>\n Catch all the new music updated every Friday on Apple Music:<\/p>\n
