Getting close now!! Five weeks till @jackj_____ touches down for his only Naarm/Melbourne show. This is one we’ve been talking about since the first Steppers tour back in 2015, so there’s some excitement brewing for sure. Swipe through for a few clips from his recent EU tours we’ve been enjoying to get you in the mood. Support announcement coming very s👀n too! Tickets via Moshtix/Universe - link in bio 🔗
Today's release day for 'I Wanna Feel You', the debut acid-laced EP from Berlin-via-Tokyo’s supreme chug lord, Courtney Bailey, and the twelfth release on the label!
Across three versions of the acidic, floating title track, Bailey delivers varying degrees of atmosphere, coupling her hazy vocals, drifting between English and Japanese, with an undulating acid line and crisp percussion.
On shamanic stomper Animals Ate the Mushroom, manic percussion madness meets calls of the wild, while I Feel the Future finds a middle ground with animalistic sirens, SFX, bubbly acid lines, and distant vocals, driven by an FM bass line and tight, punchy percussion.
