RELEASE DATE

2017 repress. Efficient Space continue to expose Australia's esoteric musical history with
Oz Waves
- a collection of '80s DIY recordings, compiled by odd wave anthropologist
Steele Bonus
. Definitive proof that inhabitants of the Down Underground were links in a global network of creative kooks,
Oz Waves
connects those who utilized mobile recording rigs and small press releases to create and disseminate misfit synth-punk, tape loop experiments, and inner city pop. Through overseas mail order exchanges, anonymous groups like
Zerox Dreamflesh
could find place on Belgian compilations, while
Chris and Cosey
lullabied their son to sleep with
Irena Xero
and her interdisciplinary art collective
Zip
. Bonus selects ten survivors from the fertile period (1982-1989), most of which were only issued on cassette in tiny editions of five to one-hundred copies. M Squared affiliates
Prod
join the extraterrestrial
Software Seduction
,
He Dark Age
's minimal wave neglect and the irreverent cut ups of
The Horse He's Sick
and
MK Ultra & the Assassins of Light
. The remaining tracks have been sourced from musicians' private archives and are being officially released on
Oz Waves
for the first time -
Andy Rantzen
's industrial dub
Itch-E & Scratch-E
precursor, the buoyant vocal-drone of
Ironing Music
, and
Moral Fibro
, Sydney's short lived answer to
Weekend
and
Marine Girls
. With detailed track-by-track notes, lines are drawn to
Severed Heads
,
Scattered Order
, and other antipodean post-punk royalty. As a DJ, Steele Bonus has gained notoriety via the exquisite selections that form his ongoing mix series
Odd Waves
. Sydney-born, Amsterdam-based, his graphic design has not only been responsible for sleeves on Efficient Space, but also trusted Amsterdam connoisseurs Music From Memory and
Young Marco
's Safe Trip. Includes a download card.
