The Melbourne-based DJ, also known as Matthew Xue, has curated an enchanting collection that traverses the spectrum of twee-pop groups.
The compilation boasts an impressive array of emerging artists, each contributing their own unique sound to this delightful musical tapestry.

This captivating compilation also features tracks from San Francisco indie stalwarts Pinks and Purples, as well as sun-dappled folk-pop duo the Hobknobs.
Beyond these Australian talents, the compilation showcases an impressive range of genres and styles. It's a testament to A Colourful Storm's dedication to nurturing emerging artists who are pushing the boundaries of indie pop music.

Other standout tracks include Jana Horn's heart-wrenching return, 'All in Bet', showcasing her rich storytelling through songwriting. Meanwhile, Yamila's industrial-tinged gothic opus would fit perfectly alongside soundtracks to dystopian epics.
