Review: Ziggy Ramo Track – Same Script

Review: Ziggy Ramo Track – Same Script   Same Script, but different. 22-year-old Ziggy Ramo has been named ‘One to Watch’ by triple j’s Unearthed team, and here at WC we have a keen eye on him, that’s for sure! His politically charged singles ‘Black Face’ and ‘Black Thoughts’ shone some serious light on the many day-to-day struggles and injustices/inequalities faced by Indigenous Australians. The songs … Continue reading Review: Ziggy Ramo Track – Same Script

Best 10 Tracks of 2016 – Curated By Kate Carnell

Best 10 Tracks of 2016 – Curated By Kate Carnell These are the songs that I was pumping the hardest in 2016, in no particular order. Please note that the decision making that went into compiling this list, as well as my Triple J Hottest 100 list – especially the culling involved – gave me minor anxiety and I hated it and ironically what made … Continue reading Best 10 Tracks of 2016 – Curated By Kate Carnell

Review: Dean Lewis Secret Gig

Review: Dean Lewis Secret Gig 17.11.16 Dean Lewis. Get familiar with that name now because it’ll be everywhere very shortly.  Even Apple agrees!  I’m not talking about Gwyneth and Chris Martin’s first offspring (although she probably would agree) but the giant worldwide music and technology corporation ‘Apple’ has made him their ‘artist spotlight’ this week and is featuring his single ‘Waves’. Continue reading… Continue reading Review: Dean Lewis Secret Gig

Review: Fight For Rhys Gig

Review: Fight For Rhys Gig 27.10.16 Hornsby local band/champs Breizers organised a stellar event that saw a bunch of local(ish) acts hit up the Oxford Art Factory in Sydney’s CBD, all in the name of fundraising.  Newcastle act dave opened the night and were followed by Top Lip, Flight To Dubai, Jody and then Breizers themselves took to the stage in an effort to raise money for their mate Rhys Pagalday who is having a shit … Continue reading Review: Fight For Rhys Gig

Review: M.I.A Album – AIM

Review: M.I.A Album – AIM Mathangi Arulpragasam aka M.I.A. has given us her fifth studio album ‘AIM’, with the aim of addressing the refugee crisis and giving us an insight into her own experiences as a Tamil refugee, having fled Sri Lanka early on in life.  Unfortunately, I felt that it fell short of expectation.  Having heard some of her earlier work, seen her powerful … Continue reading Review: M.I.A Album – AIM

Review: Harts Album – Smoke Fire Hope Desire

Review: Harts Album – Smoke Fire Hope Desire As we had long suspected but were yet to prove (despite coming oh so close with SAFIA’s album release), music is now genre-less.  What used to be beautiful anomalies like Daft Punk with Kanye West or Santana and Rob Thomas, the fusion of distinct genres is now commonplace – usually in the form of a feature artist … Continue reading Review: Harts Album – Smoke Fire Hope Desire

Review: Safia Album – Internal

Review: Safia Album – Internal Already synonymous with sonically intricate pieces and considered masters of the idiosyncratic track, SAFIA have absolutely delivered the goods with their dynamic debut album, Internal.  No two songs are alike, likely due to the fact that the group ‘let them wheels roll’ for as long as was necessary in order to produce a quality track-list.  Although fans were chomping at … Continue reading Review: Safia Album – Internal
