Dan Single on Australia’s inspiring nightlife
by We asked Dan Single of Sydney’s Ksubi and Bang Gang Deejays what Aussie nightlife means to him. Just like the rest of the series we asked for one thing that represents Aussie nightlife, but Dangerous Dan refused.
‘One thing? More like 10 things. It’s exciting, its fresh, its original, music consistently pushes boundaries, drinks are new, people are way up for it, door policies are generally cool’. As for the difference between Aussie nightlife and other countries Dan parties in? ‘There’s a no rules, no expectation type feeling. If the music is fresh the party is fun’. Dan cited Cut Copy, Beni, Ajax, Bag Raiders, Temper Trap, The Presets and Little Bambalam in his list of fave Aussie nightlife tunes. What does Aussie nightlife mean to you? Fill the crate with your fave tunes, artists and places.

Lost At E Minor contributor Michelle Wilding captured the vibe of the night and Aussie nightlife with this video.
The AP Tour brought metalcore music heavyweights and a convoy of sponsor vans head-first into a stormy Seattle last night. The Hurley denim reps were rattled; they’d endured a long drive from Utah through what they described as the worst weather they’d ever experienced. Joking around with them before the show I realised how shaken up these guys actually were; hands were still shaking and their laughter was racked by nerves. Read more
NOW: an Analog Moving Picture Project
There’s a great story behind this prog-surf film. Riley Blakeway was an aspiring surf film-maker with incredible talent and a handfull of small film projects to his name. Chippa Wilson was a relatively unknown but amazing aerial surfer without the opportunity to show the world what he could do. In 2009, they won STAB magazine’s Little Weeds competition, respectively taking out the film-maker and surfer prizes. Read more
