British singer and songwriter Raye enjoys a career best ARIA Chart position with This Music May Contain Hope, her sophomore album. It’s new No. 6. That easily eclipses the No. 97 best for the Londoner’s first album, My 21st Century Blues from 2023.

Swedish pop veteran Robyn also enjoys a career best chart result with Sexistential, her ninth studio album and first in eight years. It’s new No. 12. Until now, Robyn’s best performing album in these parts was her must recent LP, 2018’s Honey, which topped out at No. 20.
Six-time ARIA Award winning singer and songwriter Courtney Barnett returns to the chart, and the top 20, with Creature Of Habit, her fourth solo studio album. It’s new at No. 19.

Over on the ARIA Singles Chart, Olivia Dean‘s unbroken streak at No. 1 with “Man I Need” ends at 19 weeks. The English artist won’t lose any sleep over it, because she replaces herself at the top as “Rein Me In,” her duet with fellow Brit Sam Fender, lifts -21. It’s her second chart leading single, and Fender’s first.
Finally, Kevin Parker’s Tame Impala continues to climb the ARIA Singles Chart with “Dracula,” up 7-4, for a new career high chart position. The single grew a new set of chart wings thanks to a remix featuring BLACKPINK’s Jennie, and a TikTok trend, on which the K-pop superstar happily joined in.
