Description:
Maybe it's the hours upon hours spent floating about in the ocean, waiting for sets of waves to roll in. Maybe it's the high occurrence of low to medium impact head injuries. But invariably, most surfers have a spiritual connection to the ocean, manifesting itself in creative endeavours outside of the noble act of riding waves.

How much:
Gold coin donation
Description:
Is there anyone out there who doesn't have a pile of CDs they never listen to sitting forlornly in a corner? How about a CD tower? Are those things still around? It's funny how quickly CDs have become somewhat archaic technology, a sort of '90s stop-gap between records and downloads. Well, like all things newly 'vintage', we love 'em, but man, we gotta get 'em out of the house.

Four Tet, 'There is Love in You'
Kieran Hebden has had a good time of it just lately. The guitarist turned much-feted producer and DJ has continued along the rosy path of critical adoration, and he's done so by consistently straying from his comfort zone. Along the way, he has shed the long-standing ‘folktronica' tag that dogged his early Four Tet and effectively reinvented himself.

Description:
Unless you've literally been living under a rock these past few months, you'd know the Melbourne Live Music scene is in dire straits. And I don't mean Mark Knopfler has recruited a huge backing band. S.L.A.M. is a call-to-arms of musicians and music fans of this fair city, to get together and semi-politely let the powers that be know we're not happy about the crippling licensing laws.

We have a dbl pass to give away! To enter, email win@threethousand.com.au with the subject 'I want your soul'
Description:
The video clip has long been the most exciting medium for upcoming (and established) film directors to get wild with, and Warp records have been responsible for some of the most progressive, distinctive and downright disturbing examples of the genre from the past twenty years. To celebrate this fact, Red Hot Shorts' main man Gus Berger has put together a 70-minute selection of Warp clips and short films charting Warp's past and present, from Autechre and Aphex Twin to Grizzly Bear and Boards of Canada.

Disco Rough #1: ZickZack Records
Meet Samuel Miers. Sam is a man with a passion. A passion for musical niches you didn't even realise existed. Six months ago, Sam decided that rock music had been unknowingly profiting off early-'80s German New Wave, and in particular the primary progenitor of the movement, ZickZack Records, for far too long.
