Recommends: Fugazi - Waiting Room (Live)
Circle pit in the Mod office. They don't make them like this anymore.
Did you know that before boss man Steve Pavlovic started the label 15 years ago, he was promoting Australian tours for seminal bands like Fugazi, Nirvana, Beastie Boys, Mudhoney, Sonic Youth, Pavement and Shellac? An important community service - these shows changed lives, including a young Tim Hoey (Cut Copy) who witnessed Fugazi tear apart the Lismore RSL. Read on below.

Watch: Cut Copy Boiler Room
Last month Cut Copy's Dan Whitford bounced out of the recording studio armed with his A-game and a bag of club heaters for a Boiler Room web cam takeover. Recorded for prosperity, it's a layered document of perfectly woven euphoric dance music and awkward people watching. Works on many levels!
Are these selections the foundation of Cut Copy's follow-up to Zonoscope? Only time will tell.

Best of: A Great 8 With Cut Copy's Tim Hoey
Cut Copy's Tim Hoey has stepped up to the plate today and narrowed some of his favourite songs from the past year into a list.
We gave him the somewhat awkward challenge of listing eight of the best "experimental" - or at least - not mainstream - pop songs of the year. He saw our challenge and raised us with eight simply excellent songs. Enjoy.
