Jeiel - Single Review: 360
Take some heartbreak. Write it down. Sing it alongside an upbeat synthy track. Profit $$$.
Such is the method of Te Whanganui a Tara / Wellington’s Jeivenchy (not to be confused with Givenchy, the high-end fashion and fragrance house).
The result is a solid pop banger in the same vein as The Weeknd.
What does that mean? Imagine a catchy 00’s Pop/R&B soundtrack behind the moment before a breakup.
But, despite the subject matter, it’s not all whinge, not least because of the danceablity of the track. There’s some clever word play in there too. It’s refreshing to see modern terms like ‘seenzone’ – i.e. when your message is seen by the other person, but they don’t respond – used in music.
Recommended for fans of Jeivenchy’s previous album, Seenzoned, or those familiar with toxic relationships.
You can find Jeivenchy’s 360 on Spotify. Be sure to also listen out for their work on Wellington Indie darling's Hybrid Rose’s new release.

You know that thing where the letter B has a personality, or words have textures and colours? That’s called synaesthesia.

Yurt Party - Album Review: Yurt Party
07 Sep 2023 // by Peter-James Dries
It sure isn't summer, and this is really not the Balkans, but Yurt Party’s new self-titled album refutes that. Back with another one of them Balkan rocking beats, Yurt Party’s debut is jazzy, erratic, and full of zest and energetic grooves, with flavour notes of ska, dub, and bergamot.

I’m too old for this world. We’ve devolved to the point where music is only as good as the soundtrack to your 10 second TikTok, and the thirty thousand copies recycling the idea.

The New Existentialists - Single Review: Invocation

The New Existentialists, a doom metal band known for their dark and atmospheric soundscapes, have just… Wait a minute… No. The New Existentialists are really not a doom metal band, and they’re really not known for their dark soundscapes… They’re more known as stalwarts of a bygone era.

Samuel Philip Cooper - Album Review: Journey to Sobriety
01 Jun 2023 // by Peter-James Dries
Samuel Philip Cooper sits on the brink of social media stardom, with videos of his belting out pop music piano covers from behind a pair of thick spectacles racking up views and likes on Insta. Little do any of the mindless doom scrollers swiping through his reels know, but percolating behind his eye brows is the very key to their very salvation.
