After existing purely online for the last 5 or so years, we are proud to announce that our flagship store has officially launched on the iconic Hastings Street in Noosa. Hipland seeks out the best-emerging brands from the global streetwear scene, making them available to the Australian market for the first time....

Picking up where his first self-titled release left off, his new EP Conversations sees 19-year-old Budjerah reuniting with longtime producers Matt Corby and Chris Collins, as well as new collaborators MAY-A and Konstantin Kersting, revealing a darker, sleeker sound that's reflective of the changes he's experienced in the last 12 months.

Words by Keane Fletcher Good things come to those who wait! After months of postponements, the Australian electronic dance collective Haiku Hands are finally hitting the road this April and May to celebrate the release of their 2020 self titled album. After riding the rollercoaster of lockdowns and ever changing restrictions (we're looking...

it's always heartening when artists return to Hipland to let us know what they've been working on. Case in point, Adelaide-based psychedelic hip-hop artist Noah Parcey who returns today after the release of previous single 'Fallen Angels' to talk to us about his upcoming projects and the process of evolution for him as an artist.

I’m going to be frank: the world is pretty shit at the moment. Floods, wars, the ongoing pandemic... Well, that’s where South Australian-based duo Tonix come in, who’s latest single ‘ERA’ takes all the dystopian weirdness of the last few years and funnels it into 3 minutes of pulsing, jazz-inflected electronica. It won’t make you forget your troubles exactly, but it’ll certainly motivate you to dance them away.

We made it through another week folks, and to celebrate we've got some new music to throw at your ear holes! Introducing Melbourne-based psychedelic alt-rock superstars Sky City Gold who's official debut single 'The Crown' -- with its infectious combo of soupy vocals, neon guitar and kick-punch percussion -- should be the latest addition to your late night party playlists.

To kick off 2022 in style we’ve got a hot new track from one of Australia’s most exciting rising acts, Brisbane singer-songwriter Hope D, who’s latest single ‘Hate Goodbyes’ channels an off-again-on-again relationship into some true pop-rock ear wormy goodness!

Sure, spending time in isolation was/is/will be different for everyone. But for most people I've spoken to, the long days and empty nights combined with pandemic-fatigue, screen-overdosing and plain ol' boredom has sent most of them into a fugue state. Well not so for Si Green, aka Bonobo, who's latest album Fragments, conceived and created during lockdown, takes all of our collective angst and channels it into what can only be called his electronic-crossover masterpiece.

New music Friday folks! And we've got another banger for you! To celebrate the release of 'How Far We've Come', the new single from Melbourne-based indie-pop artist MIZUKI, we got the scoop on the 10 Things You Didn't Know about the singer. 

Fresh off the back of her latest single release, 'Before', indie-pop old soul Ash Lune has curated us an EXCLUSIVE playlist, a selection of haunting, bristling, and inspiring tracks that helped feed into the creative process behind her upcoming EP Broken Science Experiments.

For many musicians, busking can be one of the most terrifying gigs out there. But is it any wonder then that some of the world's biggest artists got their start on the streets? Passenger, Ed Sheeran, Tones & I. It seems the pressure can make diamonds. Just ask Murwillumbah-based singer-songwriter Ollie Twohill, who credits his busking experience with helping him become the songwriter he is today.

Alisa Xayalith, one half of NZ indie-electronic outfit The Naked And Famous, has just dropped her very first solo single 'High Fidelity' as well as an accompanying music video. AND to cap it all off, Hipland has an EXCLUSIVE behind-the-scenes video that Alisa herself shot while her and her team were on set in Death Valley in the U.S!

Hot off the back of their most recent single 'On My Own', Brisbane rockers Beddy Rays have announced their first national headline tour taking place in February and March next year! That's right folks, the boys from Reddy Bay are taking their unforgettable hooks, punchy drums and in-your-face riffs to the live stage with what they're calling their On Ya Bike Tour! 

Gold Coast based, Australian/British band, Greatest Hits have just dropped their latest EP Greatest Hits Volume Two, a vulnerable yet danceable throwback to the era of sunshine pop and 70's groove. To celebrate, we've got an exclusive 10 Things You Didn't Know About Greatest Hits just in case you're thinking of gifting them something for the silly season.

It's new music Friday folks, and the bangers keep coming! Next up, Melbourne based rapper and hip-hop artist Laila E who's latest single 'Man Down' is a cathartic and hard hitting exploration on the nature of toxic relationships.

You know what time it is folks! New music Fridays, and we're closing out the year strong with a couple of hot new releases. First off the bat, the debut album of Australian instrumental outfit Darkness & The Light, a bristling, moody collection of songs that -- whether intentionally or not -- speak directly to the current state of the world, pandemics and all.

We interview a lot of artists. Some are big. Some are just getting started. And a lot of them are in-between. But it isn't often that we get to sit down with someone of Felix De Laet's calibre, a bone-fide global superstar who -- under his internationally recognised pseudonym, Lost Frequencies -- has amassed the kind of accolades and streaming stats that artists only dream about.

The pandemic has affected all of us in different ways. Some people have quit their jobs and moved to the countryside (see: The Great Resignation). Some people have taken up baking, or crocheting, or Peloton. And then there are those people like Ariki Perana who, as artists are wont to do, have taken their experience -- all the angst, the isolation, the new self-awareness -- and channeled it into art. And voila! MILKGANG VOL.1 was born, a collection of heartfelt, electro-grunge meets indie-EDM tracks that aren't afraid to wear their emotions right on their sleeve.

Last but not least in our Behind The Brand series on our favourite creators, London-based Tim Hoad, former professional snowboarder and owner/co-founder of KING Apparel.

Tomorrow is the official launch party at our newly opened store at Kawana Shopping World and we can't wait to see you! To celebrate we're finishing up our series on some of our favourite creators. Next up, US-based Paul Espino (@paulyblunts), CEO and founder of lifestyle and cannabis brand Dro.
