Born out of the Adelaide suburbs with members from various other bands back in 2011, Bad Dreems formed amongst the backdrops of classic Australian groups to come from that state...Master's Apprentices, No Fixed Address and The Angels to name a few...but Bad Dreems forged their own style...building a passionate fan base along the way. They've just released the Fifth album with the cheeky title of 'Ultra Dundee' and well...could it be the last, because along with the album dropping...they've announced some other big news..which isn't so great for their fans... An 'indefinite' hiatus... Ben Marwe and Alex Cameron chatted to Mick on The Tuckshop Takeaway.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever started a project with a strong idea of how it would turn out, only for it to change halfway through?

In 2015, Tame Impala released an album called Currents. A radical departure from Kevin Parker’s earlier indie psych rock records, Currents would become one of the most influential and impactful albums of the decade - and Parker would gain A-list fans like Rihanna, Dua Lipa, and Lady Gaga. It’s an album worthy of unpacking and unravelling many times over, and that’s exactly what music journalist Al Newstead has done in his new book on Currents, which is a new entry in the beloved 33 ⅓ series. We chat to Newstead about how it all came together in this wide-ranging interview. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A bit over a month ago, if you'd be walking by Buddys Bar in Newtown on a Thursday night, you might have spied something raucous happening inside. It was the launch of Sydney artist RAGEFLOWER's debut EP Infinite Highs, End of Times. It was a sold out show, and that gives you a bit of an indication of the hype that's been swirling around Rageflower - otherwise known as Maddy Powers, who you might know from the band FVNERAL. Rageflower's debut EP is a knockout, full of vivid pop tracks that pull from country, rock, and other modern patron saints of pop like Phoebe Bridgers and MUNA. So please enjoy this chat with Maddy aka RAGEFLOWER, and give the EP a listen as well - it's a pretty good one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ninajirachi has been one of the most talked about Australian dance exports for a few years now, playing sold out shows and packed festivals stages all around the world. Her frenetic, dizzying clash of dance and hyperpop reaches fever pitch on her incredible debut album, I Love My Computer. As the name suggests, it's a record that dives into the amazing reaches of technology and connection, and also contemplates the horror that sometimes comes with it.  Please enjoy our recent chat with the wonderful Ninajirachi.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Earlier this year, Chitra, a songwriter from Melbourne, released a single called Big Shot. A big, bruising indie rock pop track, it’s quickly become one of our most played songs of the year. And now, there’s plenty more where that came from. Chitra has just released her debut album, 'You Can See It When It’s Dark'. It’s a brilliant record, full of wonderfully drawn indie rock tracks.  Chitra, a sharp, deft songwriter, has a real ear for hooks, which comes to the fore on this album. We were very happy to sit down and have a chat with her about the record, about the meaning behind that incredible single Big Shot, and her plans for the future. Please enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
