Classic Aussie Rock, Blues, New Wave, n Punk. Holy shit!
So I’ve posted a few YouTube videos that have caught my attention but never a whole channel…until now.
Laneway Music are posting some absolutely killer Aussie music content from 40+ years ago. Lots and lots of single track videos but also some full concerts by diverse acts such as The Models, Icehouse, Mondo Rock, The Mark of Cain, The Celibate Rifles…holy fucking shit, Batman!
Or even just head to their website: Laneway Music
Well worth a visit!
Derek Sherinian…
I’m not overly familiar with Sherinian’s work and mostly know him from the Sons of Apollo supergroup with Bumblefoot and Mike Portnoy. I stumbled upon this solo release, liked what I heard and gave the man some money.
Jezebellearic Beats Volume 1
This was another “name your price” release by someone I didn’t know but it sounds great so was definitely worth the money.
Kubusschnitt
As a fan of 70s and very early 80s Tangerine Dream, I was totally stoked when I stumbled across this band on Bandcamp. These blokes were producing the TD music I loved but which TD stopped creating decades ago. This is the third album of theirs that I’ve bought, and I’ll post the other two another day.
Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
Another late 70s early 80s band that embraced the synthesizer and forged an entirely new style of music. And like the best of their contemporaries, they embraced the “synthpop” label, while retaining the delight at what could be achieved when experimenting with the instruments at their disposal.
