Asked about the new EP, YOUWIN says "I wanted to have fun this summer, and give people something diverse that they can listen to. Its a collection of freestyles, bars and reimaginings of songs from my first year as a rapper. There's a song for everyone on this tape. Play it at the beach, on a late night drive, or on your roof at 3am before you cry yourself to sleep."

Award-winning New Zealand songwriter/singer/producer Aroly Tariq presents her self-produced new single "Anthesis", set to appear on her forthcoming EP it'll all make sense one day. The Melbourne-based artist is one half of the duo Audego, and has collaborated with acts such as Funkstörung, Coy Haste (Caribou), Pasobionic ,and Joelistics, garnering her support from the likes of Pigeons and Planes, The Fader, BBC Radio 1 and Triple J. A mellow alt-pop/electronic track that utilizes RnB melodies with gentle trap-inspired beats, "Anthesis" is the Melbourne-based artist's fourth single as a solo artist and producer, which weaves her music with abstract animation, the early genesis of which can be seen on her 2016 video for "Side Effects" (watch on Youtube) following through to her early 2023 release "Perspective" (watch on Youtube). Aroly has performed at festivals such as CMW, St Kilda Fest, Melbourne Music Week and Peats Ridge. Aroly says her new song is about "the blooming that occurs after going through difficult shit. There's a state of gestation that comes from being knocked down, and it may not seem so from the outside looking in, but it's critical for growth. You gotta embrace that difficult shit, learn from it and level up." "Anthesis" is out now on Equity Distribution.
