Album Review: Infight – The Discoland EP
A lot of times, I get emails from artists saying that their sound falls into the genre of electro-punk/rock, but often times that is the furthest thing from the truth, probably just a marketing ploy, or rather, they don’t know what they are talking about. So when I got this EP from Infight called The […]

Get Stellar – The Moment
Get Stellar is my pick of the week and electro-pop is what they are dishing out. Group members Simon and Andrew met in the South Australian capital city Adelaide. They shared a passion for fresh sounds, and combined Simon’s beats, bass and synths with Andrew’s vocals to create the awesomely amazin’ tune called “The Moment.” Definitely […]
