Aura 03:55
When the end comes, you get a real good feeling When you stay home, you get a real good feeling When you fuck off your friends, you get a real good feeling Stay home, read books, water plants, feels good What’s that feeling? Here’s the change, don’t fight against it I got a problem, I can’t get rid of it I put the breaks on, who is drivin’ it? I got a kick in the teeth, I don’t remember it Stay home, read books, water plants, feels good Here’s the change, don’t fight against it The more wild the wind, bristling the sea, orange the leaves, singe the heart to rest us Wet the lips, red the apple, blue the mood, hot the hands, higher the kite, happy the spirit Marble the love, pretty the flower, tidal the wave, moaning the air, stronger the aura Measureless.

Hanging around her neck is a new idea Growing from an armchair, painting a bird Magnify the light Flying through a window, drawing, eating the seeds Closing eyes… At the back of the room your child flows through the walls I won’t let anyone hurt you, so I must leave Closing eyes…

Really really good - Henry Rollins (KCRW)

Feeling this track - Travis Holcombe (KCRW)

Favourite Australia Music of 2020 - Lee Tran Lam (FBI)

...two slices of tranquil synthpop, with gauzy vocals, bright keys, and warm hooks - New & Notable, Bandcamp

Song of the summer, song of isolation. Song of making the most of the time you have, and song of finding new ways to connect with your friends. The return of Moon Rituals is a welcome one - Sam (Lulu's Record Store)

‘Aura’ strikes me as an ode to resetting in the wake of the foundation-shaking upheaval caused by grief, when self care is of paramount importance. Staying home, reading books, watering plants. Maybe a return to simplicity – and the act of reminding one’s self about the little things – is what helps one navigate trying times - James Frostick (Weirdo Wasteland)

Further love and support from RTR, Matador Records, Chapter Music, Deafen County, Milk! Records, Bjenny Montero and more

- THE VINYL DEPOSIT SCHEME -

I heard a whisper through the Club Seven project in conjunction with the efforts of Program Records Thornbury are super proud to announce what we think might be the world's first ever Vinyl Deposit Scheme. Much like container deposit schemes you may have seen in Europe and most places in Australia, the scheme will see I heard a whisper reimburse purchasers $1 for their used vinyl when they return it to Program Records Thornbury. The records will be recycled into new records, thus reducing the amount of new vinyl needed to be created and also reducing the the amount of vinyl that is sent to landfill.
