  • The New Division

    The New Division

    Oh this pushes all the right buttons on a rainy Sunday – chillwave/shoegaze summer vibes, great video, epic sound and a band that’s truly independent and self released (and on Bandcamp! Yay!), and mashup/remix friendly hence the great unofficial videos. The album shows a darker and more electronic side in places, I can hear the…

  • Brilliant film: Rage In Placid Lake

    Brilliant film: Rage In Placid Lake

    If on this Saturday night (or early Sunday morning) looking for a film to watch, you couldn’t go far wrong with The Rage In Placid Lake, a strangely unknown Australian film with Ben Lee as the star,  Rose Byrne and Miranda Richardson being wonderful as usual (and his then girlfriend Claire Danes makes a cameo).…

Richard is so RAWK in this clip, and love the ‘Fuck…

  • RC 218: Space Disco 3.1 – Waiting On My Angel

    RC 218: Space Disco 3.1 – Waiting On My Angel

    First part of a new Space Disco show – but rather than the previous shows mostly covering the prime of late 70s Italo Disco and Space Disco, this goes into what happened next, aka Close Encounter of The Third Gender – Where No Man Has Gone Before Without A Whistle And a Glow Stick (And…

  • Tip jar for donations

    Tip jar for donations

    I’ve added a tip jar to the blog, something that after nearly 8 years I feel slightly embarrassed about, but sadly this stuff doesn’t pay for itself…I’ve not got any money coming in at the moment, and certainly I would never run ads or try and monetise the blog (the very word chokes in my…
