Small World Festival Sydney -WTH-3511

There’s a whole lot of you who read this blog outside of Sydney – and that means you probably take small scale music festivals for granted. Here in Sydney there’s a tendency towards cramming people into inconvenient spaces, charging them a buttload of money then telling them to fuck off once the show is over. That would be fine, as long as the festival was dickhead free, which mostly isn’t the case.

Along comes Small World Festival, set in suburban semi-industrial Alexandria, close enough to everywhere you want to be on the weekend & far enough from the CBD to avoid transportation anxiety. The food in the words of Samuel L Jackson in Pulp Fiction was “some serious gourmet shit”, the crowd was chilled, booze supplied by Young Henry’s and the bands well…we all know these guys are great: Palms, DZ Deathrays, Jack Ladder & The Dreamlanders etc.

Small World Festival proved that you can go to see bunch of bands out in a park and still have a damn good time.

You know how on your socials there’s a never ending stream of bits and pieces of media you probably just scroll through because they might end up being a waste of your precious me time? Well, we’ve taken one for the team and sifted through the noise to compile a bunch of tracks you’ll be glad you shovelled into your ears. Here’s our first Aus music podcast. There’s some shoegaze from a Perth band called Hyla with enough plate reverb to feed a family of five, Melbourne’s Mangelwurzel do this thing where you don’t know whether it’s punk, ska, math or just plain nuts – plus we’ve thrown a couple of bedroom-producer-type electro tracks into this mix to smoothen out the edges. Well, enough of the chit-chat -just listen to it, will ya? Stay tuned for the next one.
