Kurupt FM is the fictional pirate radio station featured in my favourite TV show of last year, ‘People Just Do Nothing’. They’re bringing Garage music back… in a big way!
Darlene Love – All Alone on Christmas
So, it’s that time of year again. I hope you’re surrounded by family and/or friends and get to enjoy a bit of sun and (hopefully) time off work. This is my FAVOURITE Christmas song. It kinda got a second lease…
!!! (Chk Chk Chk) – Jamie, My intentions are Bass
What a bloody week. Same sex marriage is officially LAW! And, it’s Meredith weekend! If you like being in the middle of nowhere with warm beer, no showers and little to no phone reception, festivals are for you. I saw…
Oasis – Some Might Say

WHATTA WEEK! Australia voted, in the majority for Equality, The Socceroos qualified for next year’s World Cup and Tonight I’m going to see one of my FAVOURITE bands from my teenage years. Ocean Colour Scene were, in my eyes, the…

This song is over a year old now but still kills! I was reading some articles about culture & race within music, particularly in Britain where young people form such a sense of self through music. From Teds, Mods, Punks,…
Noel Gallagher – Holy Mountain
Hot on the heels of Liam Gallagher’s new album release is brother Noel’s big, new single. Equal parts Roxy Music’s ‘Let’s Stick Together’, 60s Doo Wop and Ricky Martin’s ‘She Bangs’ it marks a very new direction for the former…
