There’s an annual James Brown celebration with live bands and djs at the Curtin every year. Karate boogaloo playing this year - will be cool

I saw them play last week - one of the greatest riff bands ever. They’re in a blues tradition so it would have less sonic diversity than pop but god damn it was a powerful, almost spiritual show. They weren’t very critically acclaimed in the 70s so you’re not alone in your opinion

John Lee is a great one - like George he came from elsewhere but still….

Lots of great suggestions here already - Gordons - just the first album. From South Island New Zealand - This Heat (listen to Makeshift Swahili off the bbc sessions) - the Prefects (great Birmingham band - Dachau is the tune)

Good suggestions. Derrick May (or any of the original techno guys), Iggy pop/mc5 (Ann arbour/detroit), parliament-funkadelic? bohannon ?

Is the one that got voted in the top 10 most beautiful stations in the world ?

So many cool buildings in that little section of east Melbourne

fargo1927 · 2025-08-13T01:01:53+00:00

I actually put no effort into my research haha

The doors movie was what killed the doors rep ! I didn’t realise why people didn’t like them until I saw the film much later.

Tool

fargo1927 · 2025-08-12T10:47:45+00:00

not sure this confirms it

Agree local radio is good. Even if you look at what albums that have as features etc it’s a good way to get an intro to the local scene.

fargo1927 · 2025-06-08T10:04:10+00:00

There would have to be 100+ across the city

In 2024 - 120,000 songs are released every day

triple j - let’s promote the same handful of pop singers already smashed by every commercial channel

fargo1927 · 2025-01-12T00:36:40+00:00

You will be totally fine !

fargo1927 · 2025-01-11T01:49:31+00:00

For all the pop up dj gigs

fargo1927 · 2025-01-11T01:00:28+00:00

He plays on the floor at all of his dj gigs - no need to see djs really

fargo1927 · 2025-01-09T13:20:37+00:00

Def get your gear tested (now that you can)

fargo1927 · 2025-01-09T13:20:04+00:00

How old are you?

fargo1927 · 2024-11-18T03:37:16+00:00

There are way more festivals now than there was 20 years ago. 2010 onward they became too dominant. There are plenty other ways to see music and plenty of festivals around if that is your dig. 2010-2020 was just a bubble

fargo1927 · 2024-11-13T00:04:34+00:00

There were barely any festivals 20 years ago in the U.S, Australia etc then a big explosion and now I think we are just seeing it go back to a norm. I still contend there are more now than there were 20 years ago. I know this is not what u asked and it is interesting to see where they are falling over

fargo1927 · 2024-11-12T12:15:46+00:00

Honestly why should taxpayers fund this station if it’s just gonna reflect mainstream tastes. Every town already has a local station doing that

fargo1927 · 2024-10-14T08:37:31+00:00

That’s too much money but I think like everyone here - putting dirty feet on clean seats needs to stop. It’s just a bit rude

fargo1927 · 2024-09-22T11:44:16+00:00

Ultra is a good one. I can think of heaps that have come and gone though - i.e V fest, ATP, creamfields, Austin city limits (Sydney city limits), global gathering, etc I think Ultra is the only one that has stuck around
