When the Das Druid’s album landed in our inbox, we admittedly listened with skepticism. A whole album, a whole damn album!? But a few minutes in the skepticism turned into romanticism and we were immersed and in love with the Das Druid sound. I mean whats not to love when it sounds like a combination of three of your favourite bands - Primal Scream, The Stone Roses, and Happy Mondays. 

A nod to Manchester, the Hacienda, rave culture, being ‘lost in the music’, and all music based upon groove the ‘Das Album’ is a retro-futurist approach to modern-day psychedelia. Pure bliss from start to finish Das Druid’s  ‘Das Album’ is available April 22nd worldwide via Beats of No Nation.

'Nan & Pop' is the debut release from Sydney producer, Morgan Huggins. Clocking in at nine minutes, the track is an ode to his grandparents that takes us through their life in the country, set to the tune of an emotive dancefloor. 

Purple Sneaker's Emma Jones said of the track, "taking you on a sonic odyssey, he creates an arresting but delicate soundscape, and with a thumping beat, acid synths, blooming and swelling atmospherics and samples of birds and water to ensure a strong connection to the outside world, ‘Nan & Pop’ is uplifting, nostalgic and glowing from the very first second. Huggins uses restraint and precision to invite you into an emotive, heartfelt and genuine moment, and a journey you’ll want to go on again and again."

"I wrote this song while visiting my grandparents for a week in Forster, a coastal town they retired to after a full life in the country. Usually when I see them, it’s mixed up with the excitement of seeing my whole family, but this time it was just me and them, and we spent hours talking each day. They told me all the stories I had heard before, but I also got to hear new ones that I had no idea about, and for the first time in my life I got a sense of how many people they had helped along the way.

Nan was a primary school teacher, and she witnessed the effect that the stolen generation had on the indigenous children first hand, doing everything she could to make them feel safe in a country that was immeasurably cruel to them, but never enough. She went on to start a school for disabled students, where she was the only teacher for 10 years. She smiled as she remembered the young and bright faces of yesteryear’s students, remembering the good while recognising the injustice in the world.

Everything had a beautiful sense of nostalgia, and every night after they went to bed I stayed up and made music in the afterglow. They have been together for a long time, and it shows when they talk, as they butt in over each other and bicker about the silliest details, and that really influenced the way all the melodies interact with each other. One day I hope to look back as they do."
