Phonographics – Continual Awareness
The big news in all this is that one of my favourite Australian music blogs Skydreams is evolving from music blog into an outstanding record label / music blog hybrid. It’ll probably be a long time before they start releasing (inevitably excellent) music though, so we sh- WRONG! They’ve jumped the gun! They haven’t waited, not a day, not a second! The first Skydreams mixtape is here and I don’t overstep my bounds when I say that it’s the best new thing on the entire internet right now, including this reddit thread that ruined my whole day thanks alot Reddit #goodonereddit. Anyway, I’d be remiss not to throw up my favourite from the mixtape as it’s been an absolute revelation to me and a capital-J Jam. It’s the project of a dude named Luke who is from a little band you might have heard of MAYBE, ONLY THE LAURELS! Yahztee! I bet you’re grinning from ear to ear right now, I know I am! Everyone is looking into my office (I’m a suit!) being all “why is Tommy smiling so much while he does his TPS reports?” but they don’t even know, THEY DON’T EVEN KNOW! We know though. We know that this is excellent and we’re going to share it with absolutely every connection we have via social media and word of mouth. Do it for me, do it for Luke, hell, do it for Skydreams cause those dudes have worked a long time to set this label up.
Just so that you don’t think our Skydream pals are a one trick pony though, here’s some Bonetwister to keep you guessing. Who? EXACTLY! Magic.
Stream the rest of the mixtape here and keep your ear to the ground and your eyes to the skydreamsies
