LA Mitchell - Apple Heart Video Review
06 Sep 2012 // A review by Dilemma
It is only fitting that LA Mitchell's beautiful song 'Apple Heart' have an equally beautiful and contempo cool music video.
The song ‘Apple Heart’ is already an aching love ballad and it's not easy to get the right balance of complimentary and interesting in a music video that doesn't take away from the song or completely over power it. Usually when this happens everyone forgets what the song was about because the music video was so good. I like the ease of both the song and the music video, which when compared to the last time we saw knitting and balls of yarn on a music video it was to Stereogram's crazy good Walkie Talkie Man music video. It almost makes you miss going for a cup of tea at nana's with the fluffy pink tea cosy, until you realise that you and all your friends should learn how to knit because it would be cool!
Filmed around Auckland’s Wynyard Quarter, the video was Directed by Elena Doyle with Matt Meikle as DOP. Wool balls courtesy of Rachel Bache.

TREi - Satellites LP Review
30 Apr 2013 // by Dilemma
I’ll be honest I didn’t even know NZ had Drum n Bass DJ’s let alone a whole industry and a producer who was on to his second album, but that’s why I love NZ, because of our diversity of amazing music. I’m going to put it out there pretty quick that I’m not usually a fan of the dirty drum n bass thing, but I was given the Album Satellites to take a listen to and I was highly impressed.

Junica - The Celebration Album Review
30 Nov 2012 // by Dilemma
I first remember hearing Junica AKA Nik Brinkman back in 2011 when Living In My House featuring Pip Brown Aka Ladyhawke was released and I thought it was good a bit 80's disco and shiny mirrorballs. Unfortunately that first single was released at the same time as The Naked and Famous were big and I really didn't take a lot of notice because the N&F are so good at what they do.

RIANZ 47th Annual Vodafone New Zealand Music Awards
15 Nov 2012 // by Dilemma
When you kick off any kind of ceremony with 3 drummers smashing double kick pedals completely in unison backing NZ’s own rock superstar Gin Wigmore, you would think that there is no actual way that a night could start or end any better! But we wouldn’t expect anything less being that this was the beginning of the 47th Annual Vodafone New Zealand Music Awards held at the Vector Arena earlier this month.
