Melbourne's dream-pop outfit Hachiku return with their second album The Joys of Being Pure at Heart-a heartfelt exploration of vulnerability, resilience, and connection. Featuring contributions from members of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and collaborations with harpist Mary Lattimore, the record fuses shimmering indie-pop with orchestral touches, making it Hachiku's most expansive and collaborative work yet.Anika Ostendorf - the creative force behind Hachiku - shaped her inclusive, community-minded ethos by her time working at the queer-run Melbourne label Milk! Records, which also released Hachiku's self-titled EP (2017) and debut album I'll Probably Be Asleep (2020). The Joys of Being Pure at Heart (2025) sees Ostendorf lean into a new mode of emotional openness and radical honesty: not only with others, but with herself. As the saying goes, to be loved is to be known - with these 10 songs, Ostendorf let's her guard down and reminds us to hold onto the little joys that make life worth living in spite of it all.Pressed on Electric Blue, GreenPower Bio-Attributed Compound
