Studio 5 Live

Gloria Ragesh—better known as award-winning artist Wild Gloriosa—unearths profound soul and feeling in every aspect of her music. With a sound that is both distinct and otherworldly, her work carries listeners into a space that honours authenticity, celebrates vulnerability, and embraces the romances of each stage in life. Drawing from her South Indian roots and Singaporean upbringing, her songwriting is a deeply intuitive process—an evolving conversation with herself and the world around her.

Born out of a deep love for the dancefloor, Wrong Way Up channel vintage Afro-disco and psychedelic boogie to bring a new kind of heat. Paying homage to Frances Bebey, William Onyeabor and Lijadu Sisters, the Naarm/Melbourne-based Afro-synth duo delivers energetic melodies, deep grooves and 
addictive chants – led by a less-is-more manifesto.

Drawing from post rock, post metal, prog and shoegaze, Treebeard's music involves lengthy and dynamic songs, ranging from the peaceful and emotive, to the destructive and furious. 

The band released their debut album Nostalgia in 2021, garnering praise for its fresh approach to the genre, as well as its potent sense of atmosphere. In 2024, Treebeard released their follow-up Snowman, another epic concept album but with a much heavier and emotionally cathartic approach. 

Aotearoa singer/songwriter Marlon Williams’ fourth solo album, Te Whare Tīwekaweka translates as ‘The Messy House’, a title that for Marlon describes a world in creative flux, one that is dynamic and alive. One could be forgiven for seeing Williams’ musical world as “a messy house,” his propensity for hopping between genres within the space of a single record now well known.
