Our 2025 mission remains: to shine a spotlight on great Australian music.

Here we dive deep into Struggler, the critically acclaimed second album by Genesis Owusu. With its genre-bending soundscape, existential themes, and unrelenting energy, Struggler cements Genesis as one of the most inventive and fearless artists in the Australian music scene—and beyond.

We peel back the layers of sonic experimentation, poetic lyricism, and Owusu’s shape-shifting persona. From the post-punk propulsion of “Leaving the Light” to the dystopian funk of “Tied Up!”, we unpack how Struggler wrestles with chaos, identity, and perseverance—anchored by Genesis’s unmistakable voice and bold creative vision.

Along the way, we connect the album’s themes to the broader challenge of carving out space for Australian artists in a global market dominated by US and UK acts.

Why is Struggler so vital in this cultural moment?

What does its international success say about the evolving landscape of Australian music?

And how does Genesis Owusu embody the future we hope to see for homegrown artistry?

Tune in as we celebrate Struggler — a record that refuses to play by the rules, and a reminder of why Australian music matters on the world stage.

Adrian introduces Leon to something entirely unfamiliar, the chill out, electronic scene.

The Sydney artist Skeleten is a master of the mood, the architect of ambient atmosphere and the choreographer of chill. Listen as we talk through this soft, hazy, smooth album that floats along from start to finish.

In this special edition of Super Sonic Chat, part of our series spotlighting Australian music and the artists redefining our sound, we deep-dive into Love Heart Cheat Code, the lush, genre-defying new album from Hiatus Kaiyote.

From neo-soul to futuristic funk, we unpack the sonic layers and global influence of one of Australia’s most boundary-pushing bands—and ask the big question: why are Aussie acts still struggling to break through at home and abroad?

Plus, get ready to test your music knowledge with a quickfire pop quiz on Australian Grammy winners (spoiler: there are more than you think). And stick around till the end—there’s a little surprise we’ve been saving that marks a very special moment for the pod. Let’s just say, this one’s close to our hearts. 💛
