ASHY - Single Review: Jersey
Ashy (Aswini Batchelor) is an exceptional song writer who is currently recording new material in Auckland. Her single Jersey was released at the start of June, and immediately gained traction on mainstream radio.
Elements of EDM, and pure synth pop, touches or RnB in the modern sense. This song has an excellent structure, familiar but different enough to be interesting. The song was written by Aswini when she was aged 18 in 2017 and recorded at Parachute Studios with producer Scott Seabright.
At 3.06 long, it is very commercial radio friendly, super catchy, and on fourth of fifth listen makes me want to play it again.
Jersey hit over 10,000 streams on Spotify within its
first week, which is clearly unsurprising. It is also listed on NZ’s Official Music Chart as one of NZ's Fastest Rising Singles. Apple Music also picked it up as a part of their Best
of the Week and The A-List for Pop playlists, which further proves its potential popularity.
Jersey is well composed pop music at its finest, and it has cemented Ashy's place within the pop music industry.

Nika - Single Review: Saviour Complex
03 Nov 2022 // by darryl baser
A song with an interesting title will always grab my attention, and the idea of people with a saviour complex has always fascinated me, so when the new song by Nika called Saviour Complex was offered to me to review I almost somersaulted. The song opens with a gently and alluring piano melody before Nika’s voice kicks in and from the first notes some vocal training is obvious.

While she writes many of her tunes on a piano, and can perform them beautifully with piano and her impressive voice, it is the dance-styled pop versions of her tune which have been garnering her acclaim.
