Australian producer Dirty Versachi teams up with Mexican-born, LA-based rapper Figgy Baby for a provocative new single ‘SHOW ME HOW BIG’, out Wednesday 30 September 2026.

Co-written and recorded at Squeak E Clean Studios in Hollywood during Dirty Versachi’s recent international songwriting trip, ‘SHOW ME HOW BIG’ lands in an after-hours pocket, slower and heavier than Dirty’s usual peak-time rush. The release marks a shift for both artists. For Dirty Versachi, it is a more rap-forward cut that still holds their filthy pop DNA. For Figgy Baby, it is a darker, more electronic lane. Pulling a clean line between Australian queer club music and Figgy’s Mexican background and Los Angeles world.

Naarm/Melbourne based artist Kaiyah Mercedes announces their five-track EP ‘What Comes Next’, a body of work that captures both the intensity of heartbreak and the growth that follows. Written at 17 in the aftermath of a break-up, the songs capture the first wave of grief. 3 years later, these songs return fully realised, with the honesty and rawness of those original moments now enriched by the fresh perspective and matured musicianship Kaiyah now has at 20.

Shitzulover07 hits rewind on glossy dance-pop rush with new single ‘REPLAY’. Gearing up for their forthcoming EP ‘PARTY MONSTER ’, the new single is a nostalgic but modern dance-pop track made for car speakers, house parties, and that specific kind of obsession you only admit to once the night gets loud enough. Blending late 2000s and early 2010s pop energy with 2020s hyper-pop maximalist production, ‘REPLAY’ captures the thrill of wanting a moment to loop forever.

Tasmanian-based artist Chamberwoman (Natalie Cardoza) returns with new single ‘Slow Cosmic Demise’, a deceptively bright entry point into the darker undercurrent of her forthcoming debut album, due this October. Natalie describes it as “a call for spiritual aid, in a time of great existential upheaval”. Blending alternative folk pop with a psychedelic edge, the track moves with an uplifting pulse and ethereal atmosphere, whilst the lyrics pull it off-centre, grappling with mortality and existence.

Geelong artist Lana Karlay returns with ‘Cross Your Mind’, a pop-rock release about the moment you recognise your worth and choose to walk away, even while part of you still hopes they will realise what they have lost. It is a feeling that lingers for a lot of people longer than they expect, because letting go is rarely clean. Out Friday 11 September via GYRO, the track opens with soft, dreamy vocals before building into huge guitars, driving drums, and a chorus that lands with clarity.

After more than a decade away from releasing new music, Faker (Nathan Hudson) returns with ‘Comet’, a powerful new single that marks the beginning of a new chapter for one of Australia’s most distinctive voices.

Lara Villani's new single 'Dolce Escape' transports you into an Italian summer filled with love, lust and passion - a sweet escape. The track is Lara’s first single, showcasing Italian lyrics, reflecting Lara’s Italian heritage and the language she grew up around. For her, including Italian lyrics is less about novelty and more about identity, family, and the way culture shows up in everyday life.

Dirty Versachi’s new single ‘SLUT PRINCESS’ with Devaura is a maximalist power fantasy. A pop-infused electro rush built for the moment when you’re at home, getting ready for a night out, looking in the mirror, and deciding you are not going to overthink yourself tonight.

Sydney dance-pop instigator Shitzulover07 (she/her) returns with ‘EDIBLE BIRTHDAY CAKE’, via Too Lost. Landing on her birthday 3 July, not as a gimmick, but as a clean line in the sand. New era, same appetite.

Dyan Tai returns with ‘Eat It (Before I’m Famous)’, a new single landing in July that pushes their hyperpop world further. Built on high-speed J-pop piano chops and retro gaming textures, the track flips cute into propulsive, pairing kawaii sparkle with club-weight drums and a cheeky vocal line that does not pretend to be polite.

Geelong pop-rock artist Lana Karlay returns with ‘Think it Through’, a driving new single that captures the moment frustration turns into clarity. Built for late-night replays and car-speaker catharsis, the track is direct, messy, and unafraid to say the quiet part out loud.

Coburg-based indie-folk artist Nature in the City releases his new EP ‘Metcalfe’. A five-track collection written from inside the quiet, everyday corners of love and life, it sits with distance, burnout, tenderness, and the small hopes that keep a relationship moving forward.

Genre-shifting songwriter and performer Kaiyah Mercedes returns with ‘Miss Me’, a darker, emotionally layered new single that deepens the story they have been building across recent releases. Landing 4 June 2026 via GYRO, ‘Miss Me’ sits in the tension between self-respect and grief, the moment you know you made the right choice, but your body still has to catch up.

Naarm/Melbourne-based electronic artist Ninoosh shares the animated music video for 'That Sinking Feeling', a long-held visual dream finally brought to life. Equal parts tenderness and bite, the clip follows the song’s emotional undertow, then turns it into something you can actually sit inside. It is a story about endurance, about letting time do what it does best, and about the small, steady things that keep you here when life gets loud.

Australian artist Lana Karlay returns with ‘For the Weak’, a sharp, driving new single that flips the script on her recent release ‘Never Real’. In her final year of school, Lana is writing with a clarity and confidence that cuts through, and ‘For the Weak’ captures that shift in real time. Where ‘Never Real’ leaned bright and nostalgic, this track is louder, more direct, and built for the moment you stop romanticising the chaos and call it exactly what it is.

Dyan Tai is back with ‘My Cvnty Business’, a hard-edged club cut that turns invasive curiosity into a clean boundary. The new single lands 6 May 2026 via Mandatory, blending hyperpop fluidity with baile funk percussion and a surprise left turn that refuses to sit still.

Nature in the City, the music project of German-born artist Robin Sellin, returns with ‘Cry With Me’, a tender indie-folk single that sits in the space between distance and devotion. Written as a direct appeal to a parent who has grown quieter over time, the song asks for something simple and brave, drop the armour, speak honestly, and if it comes to it, cry together.

Melbourne-based pop artist Lara Villani (she/her) turns up the heat on her new single ‘Westside’, a track built for late nights, blurred lines, and that magnetic pull you cannot talk yourself out of. Flirty, fun, and unapologetically in the moment, ‘Westside’ captures the rush of connection when labels fade into the background and all that matters is how it feels.

Self-proclaimed non-binary anthem, ‘ENBY COWGIRLFRMHELL’ is a filthy, high-energy club track inspired by a Grindr username that instantly sparked Dirty Versachi’s imagination. It captures the chaos, camp and raw confidence of a night out, channelling queer freedom, self-expression and the feeling of being completely at home in your body. Playful, provocative and made for sweaty dancefloors, it carries a wild cowgirl-boy-they energy from start to finish.

Phillip Island songwriter Mark Howard unveils Live at Sunderland Studio on April 20 — a three-track release capturing his songs as they’ve evolved through live performance: stripped back, road-worn, and intimately recorded.
