AC

This month’s mix is a collection of music by Andrew Cowie. Andrew’s been making incredible music for many years in Melbourne, quietly releasing albums through his Angel Eyes, Matchfixer and now Glass projects.

DJ

 Tonight I played a DJ set at Phoenix Central Park in Sydney. I was asked to play a short set of music before Mess Esque performed, and played a mix of field recordings, scratchy old soundtracks, bootlegs etc. This song was probably the highlight. 

Tenniscoats June 2025

I don't think any live band has had as big an impact on me as Tenniscoats. I often think back to seeing them in Melbourne in 2012 and how it made me feel, and I now have these new incredible experiences of seeing them in Thirroul and Sydney this week to hold.

2008

 9-track CD-R album in paper lunchbag sleeve from 2008 found. It's just under my name, pre-Blue Divers, pre-Hot Palms. 1 of 10. I wonder who the others went to. Not that there's a great deal of difference between any of it, it sounds more like Blue Divers than Hot Palms.
