Praise for Sametime
“Moving On is a bright-eyed indie-dance banger, digging into the same infectious hooks as you’d expect from bands like The Jungle Giants but with a slightly distinct twist” – PILERATS
“Rated this one 4 stars to begin with but had to bump it up another notch cos it really is the best I’ve heard from Sametime and represents an exciting new chapter for the band. Slick as per usual but they’ve unlocked a dizzy indie-disco touch that takes the track to another level. 4.5 stars” – Dave Ruby Howe, Triple J Unearthed
“A perfect first song you hear in the morning type release from Sametime. this will put some serious pep in your step! 4 stars” – Declan Byrne, Triple J
“Nothing but good, infectious vibes in this summer jam! Love this guys! 4 stars” – Claire Mooney, Triple J
“Why do I feel like I’ve just won 10,000 tickets at the Timezone and I feel invincible like not even the claw machine can win against me?? THIS SONG HITS!! 4 stars” – Pip Massussen, Triple J

SAMETIME are multi-instrumentalists Sunshine Coast brothers Tim and Sam Aitken. Today they release their new EP ‘Maybe We Can Get High?’ which sees the band embrace their love of infectious synth driven melodies, titillating lyrics and spicy pop vibes.
“We’re young male adults going through that phase of life where going out and getting “sloshed” every weekend is compulsory. ‘Maybe We Can Get High?’ tells of the ecstatic uppers and brutal downers of youthful hedonism. The EP is a self reflection of us but also our generation as we navigate our way through young adulthood but making sure we have a good time doing it.” – SAMETIME
Sametime’s new EP will delight fans of Last Dinosaurs, The 1975 and The Jungle Giants. It was produced by Fletcher Matthews (Stumps, Blue Velvet, Raave Tapes, OK Hotel) in Sydney and mastered by Paul Blakey. The brothers wrote all the tracks from their hometown on the Sunshine Coast and worked out how to write and record music online via numerous Zoom meetings with Fletcher Matthews. “Fletcher is incredible at giving songs an edge whilst keeping the energy right in the sweet spot. He has a great sound pallet and an awesome understanding of what makes a beat hit hard. He’s also a great songwriter and is almost mathematical in his approach which worked perfectly with us, since we’re on the other side of the process.” – SAMETIME

The EP features current single, ‘Moving On’, a dance floor-ready tune which has scored spins on Triple J’s Home and Hosed with Declan Byrne, Triple j Unearthed and confirmed EP support from various press outlets including Pilerats, The Music, Acid Stag, Scenestr, AAA Backstage. The band says, “Moving On’ is about a time in our lives where things got turned upside down in a blink of an eye due to a choice that a very close friend made”. This track follows on from ‘Get To Know Ya’, “a bright, upbeat song about just going out and meeting someone that makes you feel good temporarily” and ‘Til Yr Not Ok’ plus infectious new tracks ‘Something To Feel’ and ‘Nothing I Can Change’.

AMNPLIFY – LF
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
