Oz Echoes
peels away another layer of Australia's '80s DIY hive mind. The
Oz Waves
(EFFICIENT 004LP, 2017) successor exposes a deeper circuit of micro-run cassettes, community radio archives and irrationally abandoned studio sessions, as
Steele Bonus
sequences a ten-track compendium of drone pop, psyche-electronics and agitated tape cut-ups. From the Sydney cassette network,
The Horse He's Sick
returns with an industrial car crash, alongside
Wrong Kind of Stone Age
's pagan cacophony and primal riddims.
M Squared
dynamo
Patrick Gibson
appears in both
Height/Dismay
and
Mr Knott
, his respective studio-as-an-instrument collaborations with
Dru Jones
(
Scattered Order
) and ex-
Slugfucker
Gordon Renouf
-- the former's worn out apparition hails from an instantly deleted 1981 7", while Mr Knott entrust one of the compilation's five previously unreleased tracks.
Matt Mawson
represents Brisbane music media-printed matter collective
ZIP
, as Adelaide's Three D Radio grants access to their vaults of live-to-air recordings and aspiring demo submissions, rescuing the slap-happy punk-funk of
The Frenzied Bricks
and
Jandy Rainbow
's prodigious beginnings in
Les Trois Etrangers
and
Aeroplane Footsteps
. Synchronously in Melbourne,
Ash Wednesday
(
Karen Marks
,
The Metronomes
) leads
Modern Jazz
's improvised proto-techno and EBM pioneers
Shanghai Au Go-Go
home record their sardonic synth-wave. A cherry-picked cast of unusual suspects,
Oz Echoes
' unfamed artist and non-band narratives are detailed by track-by-track liner notes with rarely published archival visions and artwork from
Video Synth
, prompting further rabbit hole ventures into this golden era of creative risk-taking and instant action. Includes download code.
