Melbourne hypno-groove duo Fabulous Diamonds spent three days in June 2011 recording their third LP, the tongue-in-cheekily titled Commercial Music, in the upstairs bandroom of the John Curtin Hotel in Carlton. How fitting it was, then, for them to return to the scene of the crime three months later to launch that very album. And really, this evening was to be a stunner, for joining them were... Read More

Melbourne-based duo Fabulous Diamonds possess a strangely assured idiosyncratic dynamic, one that applies to all aspects of their work. Navigating a razor-thin line between hypnotically soothing rhythms and overbearingly tense tonal swirls, the outfit have steadfastly established themselves as one of the country's most respected acts. Ahead of launching the album in the venue it was recorded in,... Read More

Bushwalking are a jangly guitar band with a band name lifted from the Australian vernacular containing members who are more well-known for appearing in other bands and their record is produced by Mikey Young/Jack Farley. Despite adhering to the definitive local garage-rock archetype, Bushwalking offer something beyond the bleary dole-core that defines our modern musical landscape.   Opening... Read More

Melbourne duo Fabulous Diamonds have a lot in common with the night’s headliners.  At least that was the preconceived notion before heading into the bandroom to catch Ohioan lo-fi proponents Times New Viking, fresh from the launch of their satisfying (though a great deal cleaner) new release Dancer Equired.
