Technicolour Dreaming

The new Brian Jonestown Massacre album came into our P.O. box this week so, needless to say, we felt it was a fine way to begin this week’s show before we moved into our trawl through the wonderful world of psychedelia. Also featured this week were tracks from a couple of cool Russian bands, Mystic Brew and the Spoon Box, with more to follow in coming weeks from what appears to be a very vibrant psych scene... special thanks to Dimitry of Mystic Brew for putting us onto some of the great bands there! Northern Europe also provided us with tracks by such Scandinavian bands as Octopus Syng and the Jessica Fletchers plus, from Poland, the White Kites, while from the Philippines we played D’Swooners, as well as a bunch from the USA and Britain including Flavor Crystals and Jeffertitti’s Nile from the former and Scars, the Open Mind and Schnauser from the latter, not forgetting Australia’s entries, Shining Bird and Subtract-S and New Zealand’s the Avengers, who did a great cover of “Listen, Listen”, which has to be one of our favourite 60’s classics! That’s your lot - another “Technicolour Dreaming” streamed into your ears, so until next week.....

...... here is the playlist, plus visuals......

The phones were ringing, subscribers knocking on the doors, volunteers filling out forms & taking details and payments.... yes, it was our annual Radiothon week at 3D Radio! The Cat & the Brat were busy playing a bunch of faves plus tracks from ‘giveaway’ albums, chatting to local musicians such as Brenton Manser, who brought in his latest album, and even managing to squeeze in a ‘live-in-the-studio’ interview with up-and-coming local band the Byzantines, who are releasing their debut EP this week. Whew! So we’d like to thank all those people who subscribed to help keep this great totally volunteer-run radio station continue to be independent and on-air – and you can still subscribe anytime... just go to the 3D Radio website and follow the prompts, and don’t forget that each subscriber receives a copy of the latest edition of DepthCharge, our annual CD compilation of Adelaide bands.
