Blood Orange, not Lemonade

Released back in Oct 2012, Losing You is a juicy summer disco hymn; Solange’s sorrowful lyrics are soothed only by the sounds of sunshine, poppin’ fabrics and bold lipstick.

Written by Dev Hynes and Knowles, with production helmed by the former under his pseudonym Blood Orange along with Kevin Barnes.

A totally underrated beverage. Drink it in!

More than a Sunday Surfshirt

These kids are homegrown and Sydney based and I'm proud as effin' punch. 

Indie outfit, Winston Surfshirt initially kicked off as a solo project. The band has now united the efforts of six local musicians with super diverse backgrounds to become a cult followed collective. The result is an infectious sunshine soul hip hop beat with honey like vocals to melt your panties off. Hot diggity DAMN.

Their first single 'Be About You' was released in January this year and reeks of insane raw talent and years of potentially bodacious tunes to come. 

The official music video winks ever so cheekily to the leggy visual montage of Chromeo's Fancy Footwork album cover, yet their unique blend of soul and hip-hop takes the audio to new levels of sex.

Think Tame Impala meets Macklemore meets Outkast. GEDDITINTAYA.

I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we stand and graciously breathe. I pay my respects to all Indigenous Elders past and present. Sovereignty has never been ceded. It always was and always will be, mother earth of First Nations.
