To celebrate the release of her excellent new album Primal Heart, we took Kimbra record shopping and discovered some of her musical influences, from Outkast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, to Prince's For You.

What So Not's 2017 wasn't full of new music. He was busy taking writing trips to Nicaragua and South Australia and locking himself away in a basement in Los Angeles to finish writing songs for his debut album Not All The Beautiful Things.

We took psychedelic rockers POND record shopping at HUM On King in Newtown and talked about some of the records that have inspired them and influenced their music careers. May contain traces of Outkast, Beyoncé and Prince. 

We took American punk rockers The Regrettes record shopping at Rough Trade East in London and talked about some of the records that have inspired them and influenced their music careers. 

While Fleet Foxes were in Australia, they took us behind the scenes of their music influences while they had a dig through record crates at Title. 

We got seriously spoiled with Anne-Marie hangs when she was in town recently... Not only did we manage to nab her for an epic Under The Bridge session in Sydney, we also got to take her Diggin' In The Crates in Adelaide.

The latest episode of our Diggin' In The Crates series features Northern-Irish singer songwriter Foy Vance, who we were lucky enough to have a coffee, cigarette and chat with when he was in town for the Rudimental tour late last year.
