BANKS ARCADE
RELEASE NEW SINGLE & VIDEO
‘USED‘
|
|
“I wrote Used with nothing but rage in my heart after spending the day literally doom scrolling for 7 hours straight,” says vocalist Joshua O’Donnell of the new track’s inception. “It’s a million questions about the future, it’s anxiety, it’s an angsty rant, and it screams at you ‘I don’t know if this shit is gonna get better but god I hope it does’. The song dances with the feelings of failure from the perspective of someone who believes they are on the brink of success but can’t stop doubting themselves.”
Armed with a dazzling array of metal, electronica, hip hop and more, Future Lovers is primed to stun new and old Banks Arcade fans alike, while also leaving the metaphorical door wide open for heightened innovation and explosive sonic palettes in the not-too-distant future.
And while all eyes are currently on the future of Banks Arcade, the group’s recent powerhouse showing in the UK at both The Great Escape Festival and Download Festival also further cemented the quartet’s electrifying live presence, dazzling with their energy and no holds barred tunes alongside 400 up and coming artists from around the globe in Brighton for The Great Escape, and taking full flight in Donington for Download amongst the likes of Iron Maiden, Deftones, Megadeth and Sepultura.
Fans can catch Banks Arcade currently on the road with Thornhill, Dayseeker and Gravemind around Australia this July, with the group also set for a mammoth 27-date regional tour supporting In Hearts Wake, alongside RedHook and Pridelands.

The Chats Drop New Tune ‘I’ve Been Drunk In Every Pub In Brisbane’
|
|||||
|
18-year-old Chayce Kennedy has released her dark alt-pop tune “NO!”
Pairing with Grammy award-winning producer Brian West (Sia, Maroon 5, Nelly Furtado), her new single takes a direct hit to the confusing and confounding messages found within the ubiquitous social media machine. She exposes her own vulnerabilities by showcasing a strength that is reflected in her core belief that “your own value is not determined by what others might think of you”.
Where are you currently based?
I’m in Sydney, Australia
How did you first start playing music?
I started singing when I was about 2 years old, and basically never stopped (haha). I picked up a bit of keys when I was 8 and taught myself some guitar when I was 12. Music has always been the one constant in my life, people told me that when I grew up I wouldn’t want to be a singer anymore but it never changed.
What’s been happening recently?
2022 for me has been lots of gigs, writing with other artists/producers and getting this EP and EP Launch show ready.
Your EP “Human’ is out now! What or who influenced the sound and songwriting?
It’s truly an amalgamation of my childhood and growth as a person and artist. People have been dropping names like Summer Walker, Sza, Jhene Aiko, Sabrina Claudio, Cleo Sol, Alicia Keys – they’ve definitely played a part but I genuinely feel like these songs came from a personal, deep and unique place. I’d say its main influence is life and connecting with my inner self.
How did you go about writing this EP?
I started writing it 2 years ago, I had ideas and songs I’d written from earlier on and the process started with Chelsea Warner and the song Presence. From there I started to flesh out what kind of music I wanted to make and what it is I wanted to say. I had pretty strong and clear ideas going into it so I was really grateful to work with people who wanted to help bring those ideas to life.
Where and when did you record/produce/master and who did you work with?
Some of the songs were recorded in studios, whilst some I recorded at home. On this project we have Chelsea Warner on production for Presence, True, Human and Bittersweet (she also vocal engineered Human and Bittersweet) as well as some instrumentalists from Mauritius on the song Human. We have Lui Mateer on production for Choices and Within, Stefan Iyapah on production for Senses – who is also my cousin and lives in the UK (I hope to head over there soon) and Marley Rooney – who’s also my keys player – on piano for Worthy. All the songs were mastered by my ride or die engineer Diego Raposo who is based in the Dominican Republic. As you can see I’ve taken it International.
How did you approach the recording process?
I really enjoy recording with a vocal engineer, it’s great to have someone throw ideas and help with the recording process. I worked with Charlotte Rochecouste, Chelsea Warner and Matt ‘Gambino’ Borsos. I usually do a few takes of the whole song then work on each part as needed. When I record by myself at home it’s a more meditative experience, depending on the song.
Your single ‘Human’ was recently released, what does this track mean to you and how did Human come about?
Human is a very special song to me. It’s the first time I’ve put traditional Mauritian elements into my music and the blend is just divine. From the ravanne (drum) to the ‘oh-la-la-eh-la-la-ile’ harmonies, it represents my connection to my culture. I remember telling Chelsea, ‘Chels I want to do a Mauritian Sega/R&B song, you down?’ and we got into the studio and created it together. It was magic. The concept of the song rings true to all of us – we are human, we are flawed but we are powerful and loving beings. I wanted to remind people of their strength and beauty.
Who are you listening to at the moment?
Brent Faiyaz dropped ‘Wasteland’, that’s been on rotation for me
You’re playing on Wednesday 13 July at Mary’s Underground Sydney, what can we expect from your live show?
It’s the biggest show I’ve done so far, and I’d definitely call it a show rather than a gig. I have a full band and a Mauritian twist to end the night – it’s going to be a very very special night and I’m so excited to bring my songs to the live stage, some of which will be for the first time. I also have ELISHIA and Melkior opening the night too, I’m hyped! This one is not one to be missed, I’m going all out.
What’s planned for the remainder of 2022?
More writing, more collaboration, more new music, more growth, more shows.
Favourite food and place to hangout?
Sushi for sure, and I love being by the sea or in nature, it always centres me and helps me reconnect.

Punk rock trio Short Stack solidified their second reunion with a national tour to support their new album “Maybe There’s No Heaven”. The 2nd of three shows in Melbourne saw an excited crowd ready to rock.
The band opened with the guitar-driven track “Burn you Down” in a flood of blinding lights. They launched into the brit-rock inspired “Dance with Me” which had the crowd singing along. They continued to power through their extensive catalog with youthful energy and reckless abandon interjecting between songs with some casual humour.
Surprisingly, the middle of the show had Bradie Webb deliver a powerhouse drum solo playing “Centipede” by Knife Party. The band launched into the crowd hit “We Dance To a Different Disco, Honey”, then recent release “Armageddon”, followed by the anthemic “Planets” that had fists pumping and fans singing along.
Never one to disappoint, Short Stack returned for an encore with a rousing rendition of Blink-182”s “All the Small Things”, then closing out with the catchy “Sway Sway Baby”.
Judging by the smiles on people’s faces, Short Stack came, saw, and delivered.

4B Joins Forces With Diesel aka Shaquille O’Neal and Trick Daddy for Hard-Hitting Fusion of Trap and Hip-Hop “Shut Up”
Title: Shut Up ft. Trick Daddy
Label: MACA
There’s no doubt that Jersey Shore-based producer 4B knows how to start a party, and look no further than his new collaboration with Diesel (aka Shaquille O’Neal) and Florida-based veteran rapper Trick Daddy to be your new weekend soundtrack. “Shut Up” goes hard out of the gate with a menacing bassline and sinister, serrating synths, all complemented with Trick Daddy‘s hyped rapping. The track is hard-hitting with plenty of rhythms, providing just the vibe for your summertime clubbing or house party with your friends. “Shut Up” follows 4B‘s recently released track “Drum” from earlier this summer, ahead of his concept event at the iconic Hollywood Palladium “4B & Friends” on July 15. Trick Daddy rose to fame during the late 90s and worked with names like Lil Jon, DJ Khaled, Pitbull, Young Jeezy, and many others.
“I linked up with Shaq, aka DJ Diesel, in Texas. I asked him why he DJs. Mind you, I used to watch this VHS “Shaq Attack – In Your Face” where he was DJing in the 90s, but I was curious to see why he’s doing it in 2022. He said the first time he played a festival, it felt like Game 7. I was inspired immediately. He really loves the bass music crowd, and I see him head banging during his sets. So I wanted to bring that bass but also Jersey vibe to the table for a collab, and I think we nailed it with ‘Shut Up.’ He’s been playing it ever since, and I’m so pumped for it to finally be out.” – 4B
“Working with 4B on ‘Shut Up‘ was a blast. Bobby and I have done countless shows together, but we never sat down to actually make a record… It was time to change that.” – Diesel aka Shaquille O’Neal
Robert McKeon Jr., better known as 4B, may only be 29 years old, but he’s already been honing his musical skills for nearly half of his life. The American DJ and producer has relentlessly pursued his signature sound and vision, garnering support from some of the industry’s legends like Skrillex, DJ Snake, Diplo and Tiësto for his unique sound and meticulous production style. His trademark single was “Pop Dat” with Aazar in 2015; which became a quintessential trap anthem upon its release in 2015 and quickly evolved into a festival staple recognized all over the world. Since its release, it has become one of the most played trap songs in 2016, putting 4B firmly on the map as one to be watched in the dance music scene. Since then, his talent for boundary-pushing production translated easily into a finely tuned ear for remixes, including one for Fetty Wap‘s “My Way” with Flosstradamus and DJ Snake‘s “Middle,” which was officially released through Interscope. 4B has also earned himself somewhat of a cult following from his electric live performances, which include his wildly popular set at EDC Las Vegas right before ZEDD, where he brought out Soulja Boy as a special guest. 4B continues to evolve and mature as an artist, and we are excited to see what the next wave of his career brings.
Shaquille O’Neal is one of the most dominant basketball players in NBA history and is now also one of the greatest entertainers on earth. At 7’1″ and 325 pounds, Shaq‘s larger-than-life personality and powerful athleticism have resulted in worldwide admiration and one of the most passionate fan bases in sports and entertainment. The Hall of Famer first discovered electronic dance music after crashing the festival TomorrowWorld in 2014, a milestone event that changed his life forever after being exposed to DJ’s such as Steve Aoki and Skrillex. Shaquille has been passionate about music from a very young age – at just 14 after O’Neal saw Public Enemy live for the first time, while sandwiched in a crowd of 5000 people, he became fixated on DJing. He cut his neighbors’ grass, walked dogs, and scraped together any cash that he could until he saved up $200 to buy his first set of turntables at a local pawn shop. Fast forward to 1993, Shaquille‘s rap album, ‘Shaq Diesel,’ did the unthinkable of selling over a million copies and peaked at No. 25 on the Billboard 100 cementing O’Neal as the only athlete ever with a platinum-selling album. SHAQ aka DJ Diesel‘s dance music debut was at TomorrowWorld 2015, as the Hall of Famer took the stage for the first time in front of tens of thousands of fans mixing the best of Trap, EDM, and Hip-Hop. From there DJ Diesel‘s career was born as he cemented the title of ‘the biggest DJ in the world.’ DJ Diesel recently embarked on a 15+ date “Summer of SHAQ” tour, has graced main stages around the globe from Tomorrowland, Lost Lands, Life in Color, and even launched his own festival series – Shaq’s Fun House.

Can You Naturally Increase Your Breast Size? Try Some Of These Different Options
If you are unhappy with your breast size, you are not alone. Many women feel self-conscious about their breasts and would like to increase their bust size. Fortunately, there are several different ways that you can do this naturally.
In this blog post, we will discuss some of the most popular methods for increasing your breast size. We hope that this information will help you make an informed decision about which method is right for you!
1. Breast Enlargement Pills
Breast enlargement pills are one of the most popular methods for increasing breast size. These pills contain a variety of herbs and other ingredients that can stimulate breast growth.
Herbal remedies for breast enlargement are popular because they are generally safe and effective. There are many different herbal remedies that can be used to increase breast size. Some of the most popular herbs include fenugreek, saw palmetto, wild yam, and dong quai. These herbs work by stimulating the growth of breast tissue.
They can also help to balance hormones, which can promote breast growth. Breast enlargement pills typically contain a combination of these herbs. You should take herbal remedies for breast enlargement under the guidance of a healthcare professional to ensure safety and effectiveness.
2. Breast Enhancement Creams
Breast enhancement creams are another popular method for increasing breast size. These creams contain a variety of ingredients that can stimulate breast growth. Ingredients in these creams that promote breast growth are fenugreek extract, blessed thistle extract, dandelion root extract, and red clover extract.
3. Breast Pumps And Massagers
Breast pumps and massagers are two other popular methods for increasing breast size. Breast pumps work by creating suction around the breasts. This suction helps to increase blood flow to the area, which can promote growth. Breast massagers work by stimulating blood flow to the breasts. This increased blood flow can help to promote growth.
4. Herbal Remedies For Breast Enlargement
There are a number of different herbal remedies that have been traditionally used to improve breast size. Some of the most popular herbs include fenugreek, saw palmetto, and wild yam. These herbs can be taken in pill form, as a tea, or as oil tincture.
How These Remedies Work:
Fenugreek is a plant that is native to the Mediterranean region. The seeds of this plant have been traditionally used for improving breast size. Fenugreek contains a compound called phytoestrogens, which can stimulate breast growth.
Saw palmetto is a plant that is native to North America. The berries of this plant have been traditionally used to improve breast size. Saw palmetto contains a compound called beta-sitosterol, which can stimulate breast growth.
Wild yam is a root vegetable that is native to North America. The roots of this plant have been traditionally used to improve breast size. Wild yam contains a compound called diosgenin, which can stimulate breast growth
5. Exercises To Increase Breast Size
There are a number of different exercises that can help to increase breast size. These exercises can help to tone and strengthen the muscles around the breasts, which can give the appearance of larger breasts. Additionally, these exercises can improve blood flow to the area, which can promote growth. Many women see results within a few weeks of starting an exercise program.
Exercises That Increase Breast Size:
- Pushups
- Chest press
- Flys
- Pullovers
- Dips
Be Safe And Knowledgeable
There are a few things to keep in mind if you are considering taking any of the methods discussed. First, it is important to choose a reputable brand. There are many different breast enlargement products on the market, and not all of them are created equal. Make sure to do your research before you buy any pills.
Second, be aware that there is no guarantee that you will see results from taking these pills. Some women see an increase in breast size, while others do not. If you do not see results after taking Breast enlargement pills for a few weeks, you may want to try another method.
So, can you naturally increase your breast size? Yes! There are a variety of different ways that you can try to achieve this goal. Some methods, like using breast enlargement pills or creams, are relatively simple and straightforward. Others, such as performing exercises to increase breast size or using a breast pump or massager, may require more time and effort on your part. However, all of these methods have the potential to help you enlarge your breasts – if you’re willing to put in the work.
Just be sure to do your research before starting any new regimen and always consult with a physician if you have any concerns. And most importantly, remember that safety should always be your top priority.

Paces opens up about some seriously hard times on new single Adrift
What would you do if you were living the dream and your career was halted by a global catastrophe, you suddenly found yourself a single parent and your existing anxiety & depression boiled over to a point where you were left bed ridden? The past couple of years have been hard for a lot of us but the infamously cheerful producer Paces (Mikey Perry) has had quite the run. “I was struggling to do simple things like go to a grocery store or drive my car without having anxiety attacks. I was spiraling every day and despite exercising regularly, meditating, doing yoga, going to therapy every week, journaling, etc, it just kept getting worse.” The tendency to think that if we just do all the right things it’ll get better, is strong with so many of us. “Eventually my physical health declined and for a few months I barely had the strength to cook for myself. I had to sleep through most of the days and I wasn’t able to look after my son (who is my whole world). I was at rock bottom. At that point, I relented and started taking antidepressants. They helped with the anxiety a lot and gave me a foothold to start climbing out of the pit I was in.”
Mikey then found headroom to start creating again. An experimental but authentic combination of sounds started to emerge. The future bass/hyper-pop sound we’ve loved Paces for started merging with Mikey’s lifelong passion for raw and emotive punk music. “The songwriting turned out to be a positive goal to focus on, so I kept chipping away at it and eventually ended up with a handful of new songs, out of this really crap part of my life.” Another barrier to fall ment that for the first time Mikey put his own voice into the microphone. ”I’m not a singer, I’ve never been a singer, but I sing on these songs because they’re too personal to have had anyone else do it.” A new freedom came with starting from scratch. No momentum, a new sound and his own label to release under. “It’s been super cathartic. At the moment I kind of feel like nothing matters, which has been a refreshing headspace to make music from.” The first single to emerge is the stirring Adrift. A skate-punk bass riff sets the pace before warped electronic drums open up for the chorus. The track ultimately, apexes in a big rock moment when the drum kit kicks in and the mosh pit vibes take over. Armed with his new “hyper-punk’ sound and a renewed energy Paces has found reasons to make noise again: “I’m sad, so now I sing.”
Adrift is out everywhere today!

JEREMY LOOPS collaborates with ED SHEERAN & LADYSMITH BLACK MAMBAZO for brand new record ‘HEARD YOU GOT LOVE’ out today. LEAD SINGLE ‘HEAD START’ ALSO OUT TODAY
Photo Credit: Ross Hillier
South African artist Jeremy Loops has played some of the world’s most prestigious venues – including a sell-out headline Brixton Academy show here in the UK – with his high-energy music, amassing over 250 million global streams, and growing. Today he releases his long-awaited third album, ‘Heard You Got Love’, a record of head-bopping anthems perfect for sunny days.
Also released today is Jeremy’s feel good, laid back and hooky single ‘Head Start’, produced by the prolific Red Triangle (Camilla Cabella, Charlie Puth, Yungblud), co-written by Wayne Hector (Nicki Minaj’s ‘Starships’) and featuring Jeremy’s easing voice and effortless guitar.
This follows his previous single ‘Better Together’ which was co-written with none other than Ed Sheeran. After meeting backstage at a show in South Africa, the pair hit it off – with Ed even joking that Jeremy was a better ‘loop’ artist than him – and decided to work together.
The first single from this album was written and recorded with one of Jeremy’s life-long influences, the iconic, world-renowned, South African vocal group Ladysmith Black Mambazo. The group formed in the 1960s to create traditional world music with energetic, uniquely spirited harmonies, and here their distinctive style fits perfectly with Jeremy’s sound. Ladysmith Black Mambazo’s celebrated career was followed by a young Jeremy who was brought to tears after first seeing them live. To collaborate on this album was a dream come true.
Jeremy is a self-taught musician who picked up his first guitar at university. As his love for writing songs grew, the South African penned melodies while working aboard superyachts, where he worked his way up from deckhand to yacht master. Obsessed with squeezing music into every day on shore and evening on deck, Jeremy’s trusty loop pedal followed him around his tour of the seas.
Whilst working closely with the water, Jeremy was shocked to see the volume of waste in the industry. It is this experience that fuelled one of his many initiatives, Greenpop, the eco-project that has filled 400 green-free spaces with over 150,000 trees. As his career quickly developed, Jeremy has worked hard to offset any carbon emissions from touring and constantly puts social responsibility at the forefront of his movements. The long-time activist founded The Big Food Drive to deliver food supplies to some of the poorest communities in South Africa. The crowd-funded campaign has built a food distribution network with other partners that contributed towards 55,000 meals per week for 6 months for those in need.
Jeremy has carefully merged these values into each corner of his latest record. He says, “This is the album I’ve always wanted to make and my hope is that some of the things I’ve written about will mean as much to others as they do to me. Every song speaks to something I care deeply about.”
The album ‘Heard You Got Love’ allowed Jeremy to explore more technical aspects of recording than he has previously. The record came to life in Jeremy’s home studio in between daily dips in the ocean. He collaborated with world-renowned artists such as Simone Felice (The Lumineers), Jake Gosling (Shawn Mendes), Tobias Kuhn (Milky Chance) and Carey Willets (Dermot Kennedy). He also brought on a fleet of high-end producers for the album, including Ed Holloway (Lewis Capaldi), Eg White (Adele) and Cam Blackwood (George Ezra).
Jeremy will set sail around the globe once again this year for his extensive 2022 tour, stopping at Glasgow, Dublin and Manchester before embarking upon a string of dates at European cities and closing the run at London’s Eventim Apollo (Hammersmith) on 6th October (Full Tour Dates HERE)
