Indie Playlist • BIRP! Best of 2021

Night Market

Moments

Stream 'Another Land' : https://vernmatz.fanlink.to/anotherland

A fairytale folk song where the green rays of the sun lie just out of reach. Imbued with the sensibility of a road movie, Another Land reaches out from a fog, a celestial body leaping out against the night sky as we live, learn, and forget.

Get On With It

Clay Pigeon

This is a punk rock song written in the wake of the glorious train-wreck that was 2020. The song's steady driving beat and ever intensifying bite expresses a sense of hope and resolve to help fight the good fight, whatever that may be. Like many, we found ourselves knocked down and humbled last year, but we have hope the world will come out of it a better place. Much love

Must Be A Cop

Stream 'Eclectic Circus Show' : https://sleepygaucho.fanlink.to/eclecticcircus

Sleepy Gaucho is appropriately self-described as contemporary cowboy music. The resultant sound is fuzzy-edged, dreamy psychedelic country music which sounds like it might have resulted had Gomez ever recorded a session with George Harrison. ‘Eclectic Circus Show’ is the final track of his upcoming EP ‘Sueños que sobran” (Leftover dreams), an anthem to the wildness and unpredictability of life. To Sleepy Gaucho, life is an “eclectic circus show”

Stream Lasagne LP : https://aaronjosephrusso.fanlink.to/lasagne

Impressing prior with gems like ‘Night Market’ and ‘Espresso’, supported among others by Triple J and BIRP!, Melbourne born singer-songwriter Aaron Joseph Russo returns with the yearning ‘N Seoul Tower’. A spirited synth-laden twinkling kick-starts the effort, as Russo’s dreamy, relatively melancholic vocal tone envelops. ‘N Seoul Tower’ is another weightless-sounding songwriting success from Russo.

fall in love
there's a part of me that only you can see into
just enough
to show me there's an open door
there's something more

this won't ever last
but the feeling in my bones makes me forget it all
this heart is made of glass but it's hard to care it all
cause we're falling apart

fall in love
there's a part of me that only you can see into
just enough
to show me there's an open door
there's something more

all that I believe
is the light you showed to me
but you took it away
gotta make you see
so i'll find a way to say
that I want you to stay

fall in love
there's a part of me that only you can see into
just enough
to show me there's an open door
there's something more
for me and you to see (cause we're falling apart)

A light is fading out
I rush to feel it
Beckoning the sound 
Of an open age
Never had I thought 
I’d have to leave it
Never had I guessed 
I would remain

I hold my breath
Gold rush to wait for it
Slow down, savor 
What chills and burns

You give it all you can 
And ask for nothing
Break inside to mend 
What bleeds your days
You wait for all that was 
As close as it was far

I hold my breath
Gold rush to wait for it
Slow down, savor
What chills and burns

It's about indulging in nostalgia and missing long nights with friends. It's about giving yourself what you want, even if just for the night.
