2010: A Zed Odyssey
4ZZZ have well outlived their first Saturn Return and they're into the second Odyssey, proving that community radio can still be fun, DIY, informative and play the tunes you won't hear on the mainstreamers. It's Radiothon time again - the subscriber drive that will keep any listener satiated with insane prize packs like gold passes to The Dendy and The Zoo, and exclusive use of the Mana Bar with um, a $2000 bar tab?.
The Finders Keepers Market
It's time again to toss out your old tote bag, make room for another brooch on your lapel, clear some wall space, some shelf space (and some space on your calendar) and make way for an influx of arty-crafty ephemera.
Yes, the stars have aligned for another weekend of DIY goodness as The Finders Keepers head north for the winter, returning to Brisbane for their sophomore season with more contemporary craftspeople in toe than ever before.
Krautrock: Cosmic Rock and its Legacy
Cultural spelunkers know connecting the dots is half the fun. The originators and unique evolutionary off-shoots of any art form can be as much fun - if not more - than today's latest and greatest.
Krautrock was born in 1970s Germany, when a bunch of long-haired counter-culture freaks started jamming long songs with few changes, incorporating repetitive, trance-inducing bass lines, drone, feedback, noise, synthesizers, studio experimentation, and monotone, or screamed vocals.
A Not So Soggy Saturday @ Ithaca Pool
Sick of prematurely melting like a Drumstick in the heat? Solution = head to a poolside, musical inner city oasis for the last instalment of Soggy Saturdays (previously Soggy Sundays).
They're hoping for a little more sun and a little less rain this weekend, so they've coined it ‘Not So Soggy Saturday' this time round.
Four Tet, There is Love in You
Kieran Hebden has had a good time of it just lately. The guitarist turned much-feted producer and DJ has continued along the rosy path of critical adoration, and he's done so by consistently straying from his comfort zone. Along the way, he has shed the long-standing ‘folktronica' tag that dogged his early Four Tet and effectively reinvented himself.
Gil Scott-Heron, 'I'm New Here'
Thirteen years is a long time to go without releasing an album. Thirteen years ago I had just discovered the joy of self-love. I had just stopped being afraid of the dark. I had just learned how to take those massive bong hits like Ghostface Killah. Back then, flute solos were a serious and beautiful component of a song.
Wing, 'Beat It'
Who the Wing!? Wing does covers of big time stars. Wing has a very unique voice. Wing says she is small potato but Wing has many fans worldwide. Wing has been on South Park, Wing likes to rap too. Wing sings all the songs you know and love - like you've never heard them before.
Her latest release Beat It features a few Michael Jackson covers and oddly enough some Elton John, Celine Dion, and Bette Midler (yep, you guessed it - ‘Wind Beneath My Wings') for good measure and to top it all off the killer closing track, ‘Brahm's Lullaby'.
