I just know I'm going to end up reminding myself what Spacey Jane and Ocean Alley sound like and fall into a depressive state!

I have heard the Tyler track. And that is the only one I have heard, as an Australian interested in music.

Hopefully this is the whole list

I guess they don’t have any restrictions against brigading in the ballots these days?

Would prob go for ipod touch to represent local independent music.

Someone should be commissioned to analyse the chokehold Olivia Dean has on gay Australians and their allies en route to a brunch

I can't pretend I'm not susceptible to a novelty track, and I did actually laugh audibly at the chorus of #4 just now. But I really can't imagine it not wearing thin in the course of even a second full listen. (Thanks for the playlist Ed, I think lol.)

What makes playlunch great is they are really good musicians, Keith may be a bit of a novelty track but it rings very true.

I really like Real Estate Apps - Social commentary with a horn section

Feels very Madness or The Specials

Their Like a Version of Its Raining men is good too

I am pretending that "Please Don't Move To Melbourne" is addressed to Hatchie, seeing as these people seem to be Qlders. (Speaking of which, does Hatchie never place in these things?)
