Feki is building a buzz with the single Run Away. The track which follows Nothing Last Forever and Remember is his biggest to date.
The Brisbane producer spends most of time playing festivals and just wrapped a tour with Snakehips. He appeared at the Hard Grime Festival in March and is currently touring Australia with Kilter. Check out the video here.

Saint Sister, the haunting folk-pop duo released a new single ‘Causing Trouble‘. With just a few listens, the eerie melody will get stuck in your head. Think Kate Bush meets Bob Dylan.
The new track follows 2016’s Tin Man which won support from BBC Radio 1. The instance success also had them dubbed “The Best New Band in Ireland” by The Irish Times, while receiving a nomination for Song of the Year by Choice Music Prize.
The Dublin based duo are currently touring with Lisa Hannigan and will perform summer festival dates.

Stockholm-based State Of Sound impresses with the tropical house track Love Me Like That. The song which was written by the duo consisting of Victor Norén and Joakim Andrén just passed 2 million Spotify streams.
Their latest track follows their debut ‘Higher Love‘ single which was certified gold in Sweden with over 14 million streams and ‘Wake Up Where You Are’, which now has over 60 million streams on Spotify.
You’ll definitely hear more from the dance pop duo, which quite frankly are just getting started.

The Kings Parade has released their latest EP Haze. Think Alabama Shakes with hints of The Black Keys blending classic, alt pop, with a whole lotta of soul.
The new release follows the successful 2015 debut EP Vagabond which had them playing sold out shows at London’s Hoxton Bar & Kitchen. The 4 piece indie act which also held a residency at Ronnie Scott’s has also won praise by tastemakers including Clashion, Notion, and EarMilk. Interestingly, the UK act partly formulated their signature sound playing together regularly on a Hawaiian cruise ship.
My favorite tracks include Haze and Mothers Tongue.
