There is no other Pop star like Cyndi Lauper. She is just brilliant. Groundbreaking, Truly Unique, Authentic, Fun, Intelligent and wildly talented. SO many great songs! This one, taken from the soundtrack to one of the greatest films of the 1980s, ‘The…

You’re the Best – Joe Esposito
With the announcement this week that our own Hunting for George were named Runners Up in the ‘Best Small Independent Retailers Award’ at the 2016 ORIA’s I thought this would be a great time to recognise just how hard all these guys…
If I ever feel better – Phoenix
Before French Indie heart-throbs, Phoenix were an alternative, guitar pop staple they were one of the most eclectic and groundbreaking acts around. This delicious slice of disjointed Disco comes from their debut album, ‘United’. Released in 2000 and produced by Cassius’…
Nyul Nyul Girl – Dan Sultan
With another NAIDOC week coming to a close I thought it only fitting to revisit one of my favourite local artists, Dan Sultan. Part Soul Singer, Part Rock’n’Roll Star & Part Folk Troubadour he may be, yet this Dreamboat remains quintessentially…
Smooth Sailin’ – Leon Bridges
26yr old Texan Soul Boy, Leon Bridges effortlessly evokes the sound and feel of classic Soul records from years gone by. With an infectious sound heavily influenced by pivotal labels like Stax & Motown accompanied by a stylish look straight out…

With this Sunday’s weather forecast looking dry, kinda sunny and not entirely freezing it’s a great opportunity to take part in one of Melbourne’s most ‘Melbourne’ events. ‘The Reclink Community Cup’, is a fund raising day out that travels the country…
Doing it to Death – The Kills
The Kills may just be the coolest, sexiest, trans atlantic-est band in the entire world. Returning this month with their 5th studio album, ‘Ash & Ice’ I found myself revisiting a lot of their sweat soaked, sleazy sounding back catalogue.…
The Bike Song – Mark Ronson & The Business International
After weeks-nay, months of careful research & deliberation I’ve bought myself a new bicycle. Through all the online searching, uncertainty and visiting store after store in the hopes I’ll find the right bike for me, this song ran constantly through…
Rich Girl – Lake Street Dive
This rad four piece band out of Boston, Massachusetts with some serious vocals from Rachel Price is stuck inside my head and seems as though it’s not going anywhere. This easy beat chiller, a cover of the Hall & Oates classic, will ease…
Frontier Psychiatrist – The Avalanches
The Avalanches. Possibly Australia’s most innovative, eclectic & infuriating acts of the last 20 years. Citing influences as broad as DJ Shadow, Beastie Boys, Mogwai and B-Grade movie soundtracks they completely changed the Aussie music landscape in 2000 with their slick, sample laden…
