Virtual Kris Kringle #7: Tame Impala


The Tame lads get seasonal and charitable in their quest for the perfect pressie for The Swiss.

Album of 2009: Neon Indian - Psychic Chasms, Julian Casablancas - Phrazes for the Young, Flaming Lips - Embryonic, Bibio, BlakRoc may be a late contender.

Song of 2009: Julian Casablancas - "11th Dimension"

Favourite Xmas Dish: Anything vego.

Favourite Xmas Song: Anything off the classic 1970 album Christmas with the Brady Bunch.

Complete this sentence: "I'm really happy for you, I'ma let you finish, but __________ had one of the greatest __________ of all time."

"I'm really happy for you, I'ma let you finish, but Monteiths had one of the greatest Summer Ale's of all time"

$20 present for The Swiss: Whilst searching for a link to $20 worth of Swiss cheese which we had originally planned to buy for The Swiss, we came upon this treasure: Frank Zappa's Mothers' Swiss Cheese/Fire! record, but can only afford to give them a download link. The real thing was 90 bucks! I'm sure all 3 fellows will enjoy such songs as "Shove It Right In", "Call Any Vegetable", "Dog Breath" and "Cruising For Burgers". Happy Xmas The Swiss!

With the money left over, we can buy a small block of swiss cheese.

#32: RUNAWAY DJ Mix

DOWNLOAD (63min / 90mb)

Get a load of the new RUNAWAY (Jacques Renault and Marcos Cabral) DJ mix, recorded live with two Technics 1200s and the Boss Space Echo. It doesn't get more real than this and if it does, it's probably faking it.

Sydney Post Punk Band #5: SPK

Sydney Post Punk Band #5: SPK


There are many theories behind what the intentionally ambiguous acronym SPK stands for all of which have been further confused by suggestive album covers and little confirmation from the band's members. The most dominate theory remains, however, that co founders Graeme Revell and Neil Hill met while they were both working in a psychiatric hospital and became inspired reading the manifesto of a German radical Marxist group called Sozialistisches Patientenkollektiv.
