Tales in Space

Tales in Space are an explosive collage of electro-dynamo-pomo-disco rock. With a small collection of 3 members they prove to create a huge post-rock-electronica sound.

These Sydney lads first gathered over beers in late 2008 and while sporting their lab coats in the studio in 2009 they created their debut EP – Self titled. With a background in music production, Tales in Space self-recorded and produced the EP which has proven to be a great start to their career. It was picked up by several radio stations while their film clip for ‘The Cause’ has been a featured clip on Rage.

In February and March 2010, they had the pleasure of sharing their music to the world by travelling to LA and NYC to play some shows to promote their debut EP. Soon after returning home, Tales smashed out some serious studio time to record their second EP ‘Ghost in the room’ which hit record stores in November 2010.

2011 looks set to be a big year for Tales in Space, with two national tours booked and a full-length album underway.

With the heavy influence of technology in today’s music, Tales create using a montage of samples, loops, radios, keyboards and triggers while still maintaining a solid foundation of traditional drums and guitars.

Tales in Space have been radiating their sound at festivals and venues such as Bondi Music Festival, Lovejam Festival, My filthy Riot, The Gaelic Theatre, Annandale hotel, Beach rd hotel and Oxford Art Factory, Trip (LA), Pianos (NYC), Arlenes Grocery (NYC). With an energetic and powerful delivery, their live show offers melodic guitars, slamming beats and strong harmonies with an electronic and sample based twist.

Lansdowne Saturdays feat Alotta Phresa

Sixteen-armed nocturnal grrr-oove beast ‘Alotta Presha’ is Wollongong’s very own reggae/dub juggernaut.

With the formulaic combo of soaring poetic based lyricism floating atop deep bass and ground-shaking rhythms, Alotta Presha is renowned for its sweaty dance pits and big time party starting.

Forming in late 2009 the band has taken on many shapes, sizes, faces and sounds in the search for something which has become entirely their own. Since this formation, they’ve have shared the stage with acts such as Katchafire, King Cannons, Zennith, The Strides, Kingtide and Mount Mocha Kilimanjaro.

With their debut E.P now available independently and a big summer of touring on the cards, Alotta Presha are a force not to be ignored.

DJ IRON GATE SOUND + FEIDA’S BOSS

Vultures featuring Young Romantics

Inspired by the past and driven to breathe new life into the idea’s of yesterday…with the flavour of the present, and a hint of the future.

Someone once said…no great music is completely original, all great music takes inspiration from other places and brings it new life.

Young Romantics want to mold inspiration and originality to create something completely new and different whilst leaving a distinctly familiar flavour in your mouth.

Rock Steady Fridays with Senza Sole

Reject all that regurgitated shiny shit that shrinks your brain and let Senza Sole bombard your presuppositions with their personal brand of thick, grungy, psychedelic thrash.

“Senza Sole’s music is a concoction of dark, lilting, and atmospheric sounds that teeters on a dangerous precipice” – Kate Farquharson, My Sydney Riot “Those slabs of melting psych guitar are just too good” DaveRuby Howe, Triple J

New Manic Spree

Australian rockers, NEW MANIC SPREE smashed their way onto the music scene in 2005 and have been leaving a trail of hysteria and bleeding hearts in their wake ever since. Recently unleashing their hotly anticipated “Hollywoods and Galaxies” EP in Brisbane, Australia to screaming crowds of over 300. They are a band not to miss.

Drawing on an array of influences, from bands such as Klaxons and Soulwax, to composers like Debussy and Phillip Glass, NEW MANIC SPREE create a unique brand of music that is progressive, infectious and electric.

The title tracks “Hollywoods and Galaxies” and “Deranged” have been receiving solid airplay on both national and community radio stations and drawing faithful fans to the bands live show. This resulted in a recent headlining tour that was received with open arms and open ears throughout the east coast of Australia.
