Useless Children
SKIN
First there was the horrifying realisation. This was quickly followed by a brilliant tip-off. And now this is the real-time solution. Full circle interactivity. You really do control the action here at the Jamberoo Heavy Metal Bong ClubTM.
Fishing
Girlish Meadow + OOOO
Fishing - Girlish Meadow [MP3]
Life. Right? Sometimes it's great/easy. And sometimes it's nutty/hectic. Yesterday it was the latter and that's why my initial plans of wandering down to Sydney University to: a) smash some smart bitches and; b) see Fishing play a FREE show with Jonny Boulet were demolished at the last minute like a renegade goth through a high school cafeteria.
Gareth Liddiard announces November tour
As well as details of his solo debut LP, Strange Feeling, which is due out on October 21 via Shock.
Update: Zeal in Sydney, winter, The People
Remember last week? It was winter. It was colder than a nun's vagina and it was more boring than an Arcade Fire music video featuring footage from the butt-fuck surburban shithole you grew up in.
Also, sometime last week, we threw open our arms to the Sydney Music CommunityTM and asked for some help with organising a show for our boy Zeal when he travels up here from Melbourne in September.
Kyu
Pixiphony (High Places Remix)
The original version of Pixiphony (included below for comparison purposes) was vocally overwhelming, as well as displaying a darker, more aggressive underside of The Kyu Ladyship. Even with this more forceful approach, the musical portion still seemed to be lusting for some sort of robotic interference.
Onra
Moving
Yes, unfortunately, today is the very last day of my man JTL's beloved fashion/advice column/sexy webspace Season Of Sneakers. It was one helluva ride but like all blissful things (handjobs, rimjobs, unpaid internships) it has had to come to an end.
So.. this is a swansong. Some musical liquor pouring.
This song is actually a significant homage to today's web funeral, not only because it's unexpectedly smooth like 3am Dancefloor JTL, but also because it was Mister JTL who actually invited me into the magical world of French hip-hop beatsmith Onra in the first place.
Menomena confirmed for Laneway 2011?
Well... YES it would seem so... as, according to Triple J Mornings, Justin Harris from Menomena let it slip during a recent interview that they'll be heading here for the festival in Jan/Feb next year.
The festival organisers are still staying tight-lipped on any details at this stage, but according to their website the full line-up will be announced very soon. Fingers crossed for a few more names off our wishlist as well.
