RUFUS - This Summer
Not trying to be indie or anything, but I found this small Sydney based band a while ago. When they’d released their first few tracks. They’re up to their second EP now, which is awesome - in fact it came out a few days ago. This is one of the new tracks from it. It follows along in the same vein as their other releases, some mashup of electro/pop/housey kinda stuff with some cool lyrics chucked in.
The end result, you’d have to admit, is quite catchy. It’ll leave you nodding your head, or tapping your toes and reaching for the replay button - or looking them up on youtube (something like that anyway).
The music itself is quite good, lots of progressive synths, a heavy bass line and some more subtle tones at the higher end of the scale. The result is a kind of groovy ambient mix, great for easy listening - driving a car through a deserted city at night perhaps - or you could imagine this being pumped out at one of those cooler clubs, the ones with the more relaxed atmosphere with leather chairs and little lights on the tables. I don’t know, I make this up as I go along.
Anyway the point is, this band is on the tip of the iceberg. They’re slowly garnering airplay through stations like FBI and JJJ. I hope they make it big, I’m sure they will. The music is too darn good not to.
I look forward to seeing them in May at the Alhambra Lounge in Brisbane, with my err, legit, ID.

Derweze, also known as the door to hell, is a 70 meter wide hole in the middle of the Karakum desert in Turkmenistan. The hole was formed in 1971 when a team of soviet geologists had their drilling rig collapse when they hit a cavern filled with natural gas. In an attempt to avoid poisonous discharge, they decided to burn it off, thinking that the gas would be depleted in only a few days. Derweze is still burning today
One can dream.
