“Nobody's Home” by Mallrat and Basenji

"Nobody's Home" teamed two Australians, the musician Mallrat and the producer Basenji, and it came out on 1 February 2019 through Dew Process. They wrote it together and Basenji produced it alone. For Mallrat it was the first single since "Groceries", her 2018 breakthrough, which placed seventh in Triple J's Hottest 100 that year; for Basenji it was the first release since "Mistakes", his 2017 collaboration with Tkay Maidza.

They met early in 2018, though she had been a fan for a long time and has his "Can't Get Enough" on regular rotation. She told Triple J she loves the way he dresses because it matches his music: fun, different things thrown together. It entered New Zealand's Hot Singles chart at number 17, which proved its peak, and went platinum at home.
