On this vibrant episode of The Mixtape, we sit down with rising Perth indie outfit The Isolators to talk about their bold and brilliant new EP, You Took Your Time.
The band dives into the stories behind the tracks, their unexpected love for ABBA cover versions, and how classic pop meets gritty indie in their unique sound. We explore their songwriting influences and inspirations, from retro icons to modern trailblazers, and how their creative process has evolved.
As always, we wrap up with an exclusive imaginary mixtape—handpicked tracks that shaped the band's musical DNA.
🎧 If you're into catchy hooks, clever reinventions, and the next wave of Aussie indie, this episode is essential listening.
