Every local music scene has its own weather. The Pineapple Mixtapes are YELO’s way of tuning into it: a growing set of Spotify playlists for local artists, new releases, scene favourites and songs that feel connected to place.
The first Pineapple Mixtapes cover the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane and Gold Coast, with more regions to come.

A local playlist for every scene
The Pineapple Mixtapes are built around one simple idea: local music is not one sound. It changes from coast to city, suburb to hinterland, beach town to late-night venue.
These playlists are not meant to be exhaustive archives. They are living snapshots of active artists, new releases, scene favourites and songs that help tell the story of a place.
As the series grows, YELO will keep adding new regions, new artists and new tracks from across Queensland and beyond.
