“Holy cow, this is mental. Made up of MC P.Smurf, Platterpush & Codecks, and more, this is insanely fast bars, massive dancehall beats, and absolutely humungous vibes throughout. Enough rumbling bass to make you remember breakfast, and more syllables per second than you can count. Joyous, bouncing, and sharp as a razor.” Subscribe to The […]
“Joey Legit opens up tonight and tees up hard lines wrapped up in glassy smooth beats and backing. Fizzy energy on the mic supported by throbbing and loping tracks, an easy walk through a difficult world.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage Playlist Thirty freshly-released goodies from the very best new Australian artists.

“Velvet Trip drag you into their whirlpool of psyche-y blues and make you forget you’re being sucked under. Keep staring, lose yourself.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage Playlist Thirty freshly-released goodies from the very best new Australian artists. Updated all the time.
“Dead Witch are up to something. This is the sound of trouble lurking just out of sight, of a blade being drawn in your blind spot while you’re having an otherwise perfectly fun time. Distracted by the carefully crafted guitars and rhythms, you’ll miss the knife slipping in between your ribs.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe […]

“pinkiscool may bring the ignition key to the party, the lit tinder to kick off a crowd with some easy-going but huge tunes, but the engine here is the piano skill. Friends, this one can *play*, and the work done shines through in every song, from the early-on instrospection through to the late-set bangers.” Facebook […]
“Sparrows set starts off with the sort of head-nodding, easy-going rhythms you need to ease you into the evening. By the end though, the shoulders are going, and the ankles are twitching – these precise-but-loveable beats are the order of the night, along with a solid side of joyous, singalong hand-raising.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter
“Raising Ravens’ fearsome swagger is enough to demolish houses. Carrying the confidence of having been everywhere and done everything, these songs may be arranged in a smile but the only teeth on display here are sharpened fangs. Take the blows, laugh like a maniac.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage Playlist Thirty freshly-released […]
“I *think* Large Mirage have the occasional song buried in there among the wildly widdly soloing, but these are less songs than vehicles for moods. This isn’t a set where you get what you want, it’s a set where you – and they – get carried away.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage […]
