High Noon Festival
For Northsiders, it was a sad day when Northcote’s street festival ‘High Vibes’ was disallowed due to public safety, liquor licensing and various other issues. But never fear, if you didn’t make it to one of these fantastic days of live music and boozing, a slightly more tame replacement has been formulated. On Sunday...
Seekae – Live At The East Brunswick Club 25/8/11
Seekae are a musical force to be reckoned with. Apart from being one of my personal favourite acts to come out of our country, Seekae are a shining star in the mosaic of Australian electronic artists. Since the release of their debut album ‘The Sound Of Trees Falling On People‘ in 2010, the three Sydney...

Nearly Oratorio – ‘Showers’ EP
Simon Lam is a very busy man. It’s a good thing for us that he is equally as talented as he is strapped for time. Lam also throws his weight around in local acts, Kins, I’lls’ and The Ocean Party. Nearly Oratorio, as far as i can tell, is Simon’s first solo venture, if this...
Fierse
Fierse. There isn’t a whole lot of information on the inter-webs about this talented trio. It’s the forming of three young lads, Tom Pettit (Tessa & The Typecast, Digs), Nipuna Jay (Ex – Neon Love) and another dude named Ruben Schmidt. I can’t really pigeon hole them into any distinct category, but the tracks available...
Meredith Music Festival 2011 line up announced.
Kurt Vile is probably one of my favourite artists at the moment, so this morning was pretty exciting when the rumors were confirmed that the man himself will be gracing crowds at this year’s Meredith Music Festival. The line up features some ass kicking local acts such as King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard and...

Crooked Saint- ‘Every Angry Inch’ EP Launch
With the release of their debut EP ‘Every Angry Inch’, Melbourne band Crooked Saint have really nailed that quintessential Australian sound that seems to be getting harder to find these days.
Wu Lyf
Wu Lyf is without doubt the cult band of the moment in the UK. Standing for World Unite Lucifer Youth Foundation/ Love you forever, Wu Lyf claims to be more a movement than a band. “Established in 1998, The Lucifer Youth Foundation is a non-for-profit organization anchored to the concrete truths of unconditioned youth” according to...
Radio National
Wagga Wagga has a strange quality of producing an unlimited amount of musical talent. Even though Radio National are technically a forty-five minute drive out of the old Wog, they are nailing it all the same. The boys from Radio National have since relocated to Sydney. Two identical brother and a cousin make up this...
Ross de Chene Hurricanes – ‘Umm Yeah I Surf’ Video.
This video is a ripper! From one of my favourite bands out of Melbourne at the moment, Ross de Chene Hurricanes. The boys from Mt. Gambier, South Australia, have noted that the video is shot by one of their dads… staring, one of their mums. Brilliant. Umm Yeah I Surf – Ross de...
