WAVES AT NIGHT

Posts Tagged with ‘local’

W—E—P

Having explored a number of directions in their formative stages, World’s End Press (Melbourne) have somehow found their feet moving about in a post-millennium adaptation of classic Disco and House Music. Their loyal following of dancers is testament to an extravagant and exciting live show. Having spent the latter part of last year recording their [...]

WITHER WITH HER

Wither With Her EP // Cover design by: JD
A fresh beginning – that’s the way Bachelor of Arts are approaching 2010 and the release of their new EP, Wither With Her.
After their 2009 US tour, the band reflected on collective experience. It was a year split between three continents and in which time, a lot [...]

TTT

I dont care if its all starting to sound the same, I will always be excited for a new Black Moth Super Rainbow tune. The new album ‘Eating Us’ a very slight change in direction from ‘Dandelion Gum’ but essentially follows all the same rules. If it aint broke…
MP3: Black Moth Super Rainbow – Iron [...]

SONG OF THE WEEK

If you live in Melbourne and regularly go out and check out some of the local bands out there, very high chances you would have heard this trooper along the way. Popolice is a one-man shoegaze/pop experience, and Ive already posted some stuff a while back from the same EP, but its still just as [...]

FAUX PAS

New stuff from Melbourne producer Tim Shiel (Faux Pas). Described as ‘psychedelic balearic’, I’m intrigued already. He’s taken quite a different approach to new producers these days and is giving his new Waterfalls EP away for free from his website (donation optional).
BTW: Lets get some discussions going here about all these tunes guys. What are [...]

BE FIRE

Its been rather quiet around the Waves camp recently. Sorry about that guys.
First up is a new track that Ive only just been allowed to post. Oh Mercy are a band sitting comfortably amongst the new up-and-coming crop of Melbourne artists starting to make a name for themselves including The Harpoons, Little Red, Seagull, Touch [...]

++++][++++

Some new brooding minimalist disco from one of the bands that do it best, Melbourne’s The Emergency. With still a consistent dark retro sound that has only kept improving in the last few years, their new soon to be released LP will most definitely be one to keep your eyes and ears out for.
MP3: The [...]

POLYGON PALACE

Polygon Palace, another Melbourne band that are going to be making an impact this year. Guitar in this track reminds me a tad of The Rapture. What do you reckon? Also, for those who are in Melbourne the next week or so, the boys are playing a few gigs at the Empress on the 21st [...]

TST

TST. No, I dont know what it stands for. Doesnt really matter. These guys make some dark, energetic, indie post-punk. There has been so much good music coming out Melbourne lately that I feel I barely have to look anywhere else but down the road to find it. If you dig these guys, just wait [...]
