Ned Collette - Mixed Light album Announcement

New single - Curious Thing - Out Now

Berlin-via-Melbourne songwriter Ned Collette has announced his eighth solo album, Mixed Light, arriving via it Records/Feeding Tube. Restlessly shifting between folk, experimental rock, psychedelic pop and free-form improvisation, it's another left-turn from an artist who's spent more than two decades refusing to settle into one sound.

Idyllic on ‘Side Eye’

Challenging the System, Finding Their Sound and Looking Ahead

For many emerging bands, finding a signature sound can take years of experimentation. For idyllic, however, their last single ‘Side Eye’ feels like the moment everything clicked into place. Blending indie rock melodies with unexpected reggae influences and politically charged lyricism, the track captures a band growing increasingly confident in both their songwriting and identity.

TRNSMT Festival June 19th - 21st 2026

Day Three: Sunday, June 21st

The third and final day of TRNSMT festival happened to be the very day of the summer solstice—the longest day of the year. So I knew I had a very long day ahead of me, and thus planned accordingly. It began again on Glasgow Green, another burning sunny day, although I’d prepared a bit more with lathered suncream on my still-recovering burns from the day prior. I’d also arrived a bit later, if only to save my feet from the inevitable, but I was still just as full of enthusiasm.
