once a month a small group of music obsessed sydney-siders gather in someones cosy lounge room, drink wine, swap mixtapes & most importantly listen to records.

the only rule is that each person must bring one or two songs that they will play for the group & explain why they've chosen it - as you can imagine... nerdy conversation ensues & discoveries are made. occasionally the night is themed - so far we have covered love, blues, first album bought & christmas but most months it's a fair game.

in order to capture each months playlists we've decided to start a blog & this is it.

record club #11 - mixed bag.

Last week we had an open themed record club where we could play anything our hearts desired. Anyways here’s what was played…

Hannah played “Machu Pichu” by The Strokes from their latest album Angles. She said the song is her Friday night, finishing work song!

Megan played “It Goes Without Saying” by Nico Muhly - he will be performing at Vivid festival next month with Sufjan Stevens & Bryce Dessner. Get to it!

I (katie) played “Demon Host” by Timber Timbre - it’s just one of my all time faves, absolutely never tire of his music.

Claire played “Sparrow & the Wolf” by James Vincent McMorrow who recently toured Aust last month.

Nat played “Wintersong” by the oh so wonderful Blake Mills.

& Jez played a great B-side from a great band “Swallow” by My Bloody Valentine. If you haven’t listened to the album “Loveless” by My Bloody Valentine then you really should. Definitely one of the best albums of all time.
