(careful, it's not really radio friendly)
I was stuck in traffic the other day and I’ll admit, I was getting a bit angry. I needed something to calm my nerves, so I quickly flicked through my albums on Spotify, looking for something to ooze my traffic jam pain. Maybe jazz or some lofi hip-hop beats. But my thumb stopped on Sleep’s […]
MoreAnd now back to our regularly scheduled presentation on Radio Friendly. APPLAUSE, MUSIC To quote Al Pacino, more specifically Michael Corleone from the lesser of the Godfather films, “Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.” And instead of collapsing in my kitchen, clutching at my heart and yelling the name […]
MoreYou know the old saying there’s no such thing as bad press? Meaning no matter how bad it gets, at least your name is out there. You’re recognised for something. Rarely does it ever work in your favour, Corey Feldman’s hideous 2016 album was smashed across the internet like a poor avocado on some hipster’s […]
MoreAnd now back to our regularly scheduled presentation on Radio Friendly. APPLAUSE, MUSIC I have only just become familiar with Cardi B’s music. I’ve heard the name thrown about in conversation, I’d seen her name across the internet headlines, and I knew the dude from Migos knocked her up. But it wasn’t until Teish came […]
MoreI have a Friday morning habit of looking at Spotify and seeing what new releases are out. And this morning, to my surprise, I notice the new Brian Jonestown Massacre album listed. Their album Something Else was supposed to be released on the first of June from what I read online, but here it is, […]
MoreAnd now back to our regularly scheduled presentation on Radio Friendly. APPLAUSE, MUSIC 2017 was the year of Brockhampton. The fourteen-strong collective redefined what it meant to be a hip-hop group in 2017, aptly titling themselves as an ‘all American boy band’ incorporating rappers, producers, videographers and graphic designers. Led by the band’s maestro, Kevin […]
MoreToday I indulge in a cheap exercise that has proven in the past five years to be one of the most popular forms of articles on the internet. Today I write the first list article for Radio Friendly. I’ve said it before, I don’t like list articles, they are an excuse for writers to litter […]
MoreAnd now back to our regularly scheduled presentation on Radio Friendly. APPLAUSE, MUSIC After the Hype is back after a week off. I was sick and didn’t have enough time to sit down with Lorde’s 2017 album, Melodrama. I never gave this album the time of day when it came out, though I did give […]
MoreI didn’t want to write about Arctic Monkeys today. But I found that I needed to say something because I’ve gone on record a few times and said that they are no longer my favourite band and I’ll pass on any further material. I tried to think of other things to talk about today, but […]
More7 May, 2018 Photography: Mellumae Photography The dimly lit Tivoli is our haven against the dreary autumn night that Brisbane’s heavens have sprung on us. The forecast says showers, appropriate weather for tonight’s headliners, Scotland’s genre-bending aficionados: Belle & Sebastian. Though Wikipedia labels the band as indie-pop, Belle & Sebastian have proven over their strong […]
