Mataya – “Fine China”

Born into a musical family, growing up surrounded by the live music scene and having started singing and playing violin aged 4, this Australian songstress has music in her veins. As a teen she added piano and songwriting to her skillset and worked with various Australian artists, like Hermitude and Thundermentals. She’s played festivals like Groovin’ The Moo and Electrica Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas.

Her debut single serves up her delectable blend of jaunty jazz, classic soul and 90s R&B in a brew of hot vintage stock, seasoned with contemporary spices. The first taste has the smooth aroma of laidback piano and her silky voice, but the second spoonful adds a bit of a kick with a punchy beat, heavenly backing vocals and jovial synths, giving this musical dish an assortment of auditory flavors.

INDIANA – “Sweet Things”

Born in Leicestershire, UK, Lauren Henson took her stage name in memory of her late father who was an avid Indiana Jones fan. She started writing songs in 2010 on her sisters piano she was storing for her. After uploading one of those songs to YouTube, she got noticed by John Beck who wrote songs for Tasmin Archer and Corinne Bailey Rae. She released her debut single “Blind As I Am” in 2012.

Driven by a punchy electro beat and sleek, shimmering synths, her latest single is overflowing with easygoing, 80s-inspired buttery-smooth grooves. Dipped in auditive neon pastels, the chill melodic soundwaves carry her sultry, honey-soaked vocals to a, slightly Sade-touched, harmonious synthesis. Blending the 80s electro sounds with a modern production, it is packed with sweet things.
