    Ep 7: The Best Features and Artist Collaborations of 2020

    The "featuring" phenomenon in music explains that combining artists of different genres increases a song’s popularity. The greater the difference or cultural distance between the genres of the artists involved, the more likely the song is to reach the top of the charts!  In this week's episode we give you guys a run down of our top features and artist collaborations of 2020. From international album collaborations like those on Joji, Amine, Omar Apollo and Disclosure newest album releases, to our home grown aussie favourites on new works from Cosmo's Midnight, Alice Ivy, Tia Gostelow, Baker Boy and many more! Listen to find out more and let us know on our Instagram @moodpodcastau what your favourite artist features of 2020 have been or what your dream collaboration would be! Thanks for listening :)

    Ep 3: We Talk About Music & Mental Health ft. Isaac Percy, Founder of Smash The Silence

    In alignment with R U OK Day and World Suicide Prevention Day, and in collaboration with Smash the Silence founder, Isaac Percy, for this week's episode 3 of MOOD Podcast we bring you a discussion on music and mental health.    Music is an outlet for many for us, helping us process our emotions, connect with one another and get us through the tough times.  In more recent times through Covid 19, we've had to adapt and change the way we connect. In this episode Issac shares with us how he's had to completely change the way he runs his program, still allowing people to share, connect and have important conversations adapting to an online platform.   A big thank you to Isaac for giving us this opportunity to talk with him and giving us some insight to this great project he has created. We are so grateful to have him share his own personal mental health journey with us and are so proud of the work he is doing!   We encourage you all to "smash the silence" yourselves this R U OK day and continue having these important conversations with those around you.    Let us know in the comments below, are there are any particular artists/songs/albums that have helped you through a tough time?   Watch the YouTube video here: https://youtu.be/4rIoQI8TXmw Mental Health Resources: https://docs.google.com/document/d/108xRiEvBK0w5iOeJpHXMnZd1obK0tUZFSyswPH6mQNw/edit?usp=sharing   For more on Smash the Silence: https://linktr.ee/smashthesilence   Listen to all our other MOOD Podcast episodes here: https://linktr.ee/moodpodcastau   Or follow us on IG: @moodpodcastau   Thanks for listening!
