Utility Fog

Lots of great new noise tonight, starting with something that will hopefully offend all and sundry :) (I don’t really want to offend people, but nobody does puerile lyrics quite like these kidz). Yes, the new Belladonnakillz album on Sublight is as spectacular as his/their debut; also on Sublight is the Eyelicker comp, featuring everyone you’d expect from that label, lots of great tracks; and we have new Australian tracks from bogenschutzer & Winter Park (both from Melbourne), and Miller + Fiam from Perth (who are Dave Miller and Harry Hohnen aka Victor Bermon). Also, the wonderful David Loose aka Hydatid dropped in for a chat.
And finally, the latest Wire Magazine has an exclusive compilation/mix CD from Brisbane label Room 40 — fantastic stuff.
