I am really proud to kick off this new segment, Hi-fivin’, with one of Australia’s most talented beat makers. Wooshie, aka Dylan Michel is co-founder of Melbourne based collective //THIS THING//. If you were lucky enough to make it to their showcase/quadruple launch last Saturday night, you will know quite well the mind-bending quality of artists and beats that are streaming out of the entourage that is //THIS THING//. Wooshie releases his EP titled Boyfriend Material on the 30th of May. In the meantime, catch him here.

Without further nonsense from me, Hi-fivin’ is where we rope in artists we admire and get them to lay down five of their favourite/most treasured songs.
