Sydney indie pop producer, Hauskey has taken on this week’s Like a Version and it’s a special one. He’s put a really cool spin on The Killers’ ‘Mr Brightside’. It’s way less intense with cool shimmery sounds throughout. The production as well as the contrast between the instrumentals and the vocal delivery is reminiscent of […]
We’re still just buzzing about the segment being back and now Fergus James has gone and made an absolutely insane ‘Like a Version’ debut for us. He’s taken on 2019 Hottest 100 STAR, BENEE. Performing ‘Soaked’, James twists it into an indie-rock cover. Fergus James brings a wildly upbeat but frantic energy to the cover […]
Triple j’s Like a Version is bac.! The first cab off the rank is Sydney rapper, ChillinIT, who brought along Triple One’s Dijon to cover ‘SUGAR’ by BROCKHAMPTON. Dijon takes care of the vocals while ChillinIT covers the bars. It’s a way more chill version compared to the original without compromising the catchiness of the […]
In the absolute best news, triple j’s Like A Version is coming back! Yup, Fridays have purpose again, our favourite morning segment is back as of next week. Triple j announced back in March that, due to the COVID-19 restrictions, we wouldn’t be receiving our regularly scheduled covers. “After today’s performance from The Naked And […]
Brissie favourites, Bugs have taken on another Brissie fave, Mallrat for Like A Version this week. Putting their own indie pop-rock spin on her absolute tune, ‘Charlie’, it’s such a delight. The cover of the Hottest 100 #3 is full of that signature Bugs animation with infectious energy and the happiest demeanour you’ve ever seen. […]
Kota Banks has just given us a roaring Like a Version. Taking on Travis Scott’s ‘Sicko Mode’, she had a really good track to work with but this is something else entirely. Kota Banks’ take on ‘SICKO MODE’ is like a genre-medley through one song. Banks starts off by slowing it right down, before throwing […]
Literal human ray of sunshine, Stella Donnelly has delivered us a very special Valentine’s Day Like a Version. It’s a dreamy, indie-pop take on ‘Love Is In The Air’ and it’s just perfect. The instrumentals are a bit more fun, the vocals are elegant AF, and as usual, Stella looks like she’s having the time […]
The Vanns were up for triple j‘s Like A Version this week. They took in a 2019 favourite, ‘Hey Ma’ by Bon Iver and smashed it. The cover doesn’t stray wildly far from the original but they change the track up just enough to make it their own and… somewhat of a rock anthem. The […]
Jimblah has assembled a full choir of backup singers for this week’s Like a Version. He took them along to the triple j studios to perform a really special and poignant rendition of Marvin Gaye’s ‘What’s Going On’. Ellie May joined him on vocals. She features on his track ‘Black Life Matters’ — don’t worry […]
Icelandic folk, indie-pop group, Of Monsters and Men were up for triple j’s Like a Version this week. They performed a 2019 favourite from Post Malone, ‘Circles’. Post’s original has a weird juxtaposition with the sunny-sounding melodies held up against dark lyrics. Of Monsters and Men keep the fun in the track, but manage to […]
