There's something inescapably windswept about the Australian duo HTRK. You can almost picture washing up on a stunning shoreline with them, perhaps cast adrift from a shipwreck. It's heartfelt stuff, to say the least, and packs the kind of atmosphere that tries its best to make you fall in love, again and again, with anything.

These are the tracks where your precious memories live, sonic boxes you need to be brave to open because there's a very good chance whatever you're doing at that moment won't be as happy as what you stored away for safekeeping. Too symbolic? No worries. In terms of sound, this is whispered words and soft, acoustic melodies floating on a summer breeze, a vision of childhood and carefree adult afternoons all in one. Something tender and yet quietly powerful, once heard never forgotten.
