SCRAPS - Charming Girl

Here’s a new(ish) track from Brisbane songstress SCRAPS (Laura Hill). I’ve posted some of her work on BRISBANE OR DEATH before, and I’m quite liking this newer stuff too. VICE Magazine seems to agree, and have just posted a new interview with SCRAPS on their site.

Incidentally, if you want to find more fresh Brisbane music, check out either of these two local record companies -

Anonymous asked: Hi, just wondering, have you read any of Alain de Botton's books. He talks quite a lot about culture in the modern age.

Mmm, no I haven’t actually, but I certainly am interested in that kind of area. Does he focus on a particular idea or discourse? Send me an email if you like. Sounds interesting.

Yeronga station, probably the most useful station in the whole network; being on the exact same ROAD as Yeerongpilly and within about 5 minutes walking distance.

Did I mention how much I’m enjoying the Translink Tumblr.

There is SO much cool stuff going on in Brisbane musically, it just doesn’t get anywhere near enough publicity/played on radio other than 4zZz

Yeah yeah.
