‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.  

for our inaugural transmission, it is a great honour to bring you an hour long tape only mix by Rings Around Saturn, aka Dan White (rip) aka 2200 aka Pickleman aka 1/2 of Turner Street Sound and known to his mum as Rory Mcpike, it doesn’t really matter what you call him, his talent speaks beyond this planet. Going from strength to strength, Rory has released on some of the best local and international record labels such as Butter Sessions, Analogue Attic, Forbidden Planet and his latest on Unthank. Personally, Rory has had a big influence on me and my musical direction ever since that first live set at Inner Varnika 15 and has been a pivotal player in taking Australian music to an international audience. So please, without further ado, dim the lights, put on your headphones (anything but laptop speakers), pour the chamomile and sit back and R E L A X, you're at home. 

his words. 
"Mix was recorded on a drizzly day with 2 cassette decks and an analog delay so it's full of mistakes and over the top use of delay.  But that's how I do it when I wake up a little fuzzy on the weekend and I'm having a mix or a digging through music to help inspire some ideas I can explore in my own way."

FHUO # 1 // Rings Around Saturn

‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.  

For our second episode, we’ve none other the man ‘wush’ himself. Josh to his mates, Joshua to his mum and Jah to his followers, an amoeba who has the power to go in any direction. A long time player who’s only in it for one reason, the ‘love’. 

Sought after by many because there are slots that only Wush can fill, an Inner Varnika staple, always strategically placed to pep the crowd up or wind the crowd down, all with the precision of a surgeon. 

Wush, paired with Herb Powers and Winters run the Melbourne based record label Parallel People (tip!) that also moonlights as a gathering at Section 8 on the reg, which is a celebration of the diverse noise that drives them and doubles as a short course in the arts for the gen pop.

Personally, his perfectly executed “DANCE TIL DAWN” mix sits right up there with the best, as well as all his other sonic adventures over the years and it's with great excitement that I can present this mix to you. 

"Mix was done last Sunday, pulled the window up, put the heater on, let some of the god's incense flow and drank some green tea and made the mix, just wanted to try and put some new stuff I've been feeling on the electronic tip, some more club, some less. Some new ambient stuff in there and just try and switch up the vibe a bit, not get too stuck in anyone bit"

(sip's on some of his home made vino)

"Shout out to Sound of Thought"

I'm not going to write anything about the mix, one because I’m not really sure what to write and two, I shouldn’t have to because you should already be listening to it. 
 

For Home Use Only! 

Jah bless.

FHUO # 2 // Wush

‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Joining us for our third installment is the queen of Queensland, Miss Emma Stevenson aka DJ XXXX (fourex) aka the lady of the deep aka the iceberg that sunk the titanic. Hailing from the sunshine state where there's no such thing as rain or daylight savings, she’s used the lack of infringement on time to her advantage, honing her skills to become an absolute solid force in the idiosyncratic world of the ‘disk jock’. 

In the last few years, Brisbane has popped its head up in the scene with a number great producer’s, record labels, DJ’s and parties, firmly stamping their own imprint on the Australian landscape. Emma has been a huge part of this movement, sticking it out, avoiding the temptation to move to Melbourne or Sydney and just holding down the fort in Brisbo. Her digging habits compare to that of nervous badger, constructing complex, long-lasting networks of tunnels and chambers that make up her deeply rooted DJ sets.  

The mix itself is almost perfect for a post-club debrief, almost like a bed time story with a twist at the end. Layers upon layers of lush soundscapes laden with memory triggers and spatial echoes. I recommend being selfish on this one and putting in your headphones. 

Personally, I’m a massive fan of Emma on both sides of the decks so it's an absolute pleasure to present this mix and I can’t wait to see how far she will go. 

her words.

“This mix was recorded the first night of a residency I'm doing @ Queensland Art Gallery/ Gallery of Modern Art.
My approach to playing a gallery space kinda mimics my own living room soundtracking, picking up spacious stuff suited for bubbling under dinner guest banter, or just enjoying some solo unwind time.”

‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Now that we know each other it's time to stretch a few minds and travel to some new worlds and who better to guide you than Thick Owens aka the clean shank kid aka the living mona lisa. 

On our fourth excursion, you're invited to explore every nook in the known universe, a take on a silent indie romantic horror soundtrack, a tapestry from the future. Carelessly blending sounds like a blind bartender's seeing eye dog. From Amazonian forest punk to post-post-neu-old wave kraut folk rock to slow-mo AI techno, take a step into the darkness, it's nice to have some contrast. 

Thick Owens hails from Sydney, running his brand of fun by the name of 'OKRA', a beacon for the people in the shape of a rave, he's also one on the brains behind the soon to be legendary 'Soft Centre', a festival for the whole body held just outside Sydney in an old power plant. At such a young age with all the right idea's, it's safe to say the future is in good hands. 

So with out further ado, wait till the sun sets, turn the lights down, decide on a ‘safe’ word and tell everyone to shut up, then press play. 

~ A letter from Thick ~

To whom it may concern,

After much delay and deliberation Thick Owens has emerged from the avant-garden to present his illprog-opus featuring dad-rock (Pink Floyd), pub rock (Grinderman), artrock (Jonny Greenwood), a Tool interlude, a theme song from a good TV show, William S. Burroughs talking for a while and a diary excerpt from Thick himself, titled: 'the weekend I finally got into Berghain'. 

This is not dance music! This is FOR HOME USE ONLY!

This is also an apology to my dad for selling my guitar. I just want him to know, I never forgot how to play. 

To be honest, I kind of imagined myself playing this to my dad if we went out for an unlikely bend and had an unlikely kick-ons and we mixed in weed and shit got loopy but we weren't allowed to leave until we smoothed out the kinks. 

Pink Floyd had to be the starting point. It alway was. But this is me saying "Dad, look where I started, and look at how I've grown, I'm no longer that little twerp practising Megadeth arpeggios, there's a whole world of music out there, I hope you can grow with me."

I don't want to turn this into a domestic, but it's definitely suited to the humble abode.

I hope you enjoy (dad) and Louis and thank you for the opportunity.

Warmest regards,

Thick

Sup! We back! 

So, we’re up to number 5 and who better to celebrate with than Dj Fett Burger! The Norwegian land dolphin aka Captain Sarcasm aka DJ anti-establishment aka possibly one of the nicest guy’s you’ll ever meet. 

Founder of the legendary ‘Sex Tags’ record label and the always faithful ‘Trushmix’ series, An extremely talented being across all forms of ‘art’ (loose term), from remixing tracks to doodling on a used napkin the man oozes a frustrating amount of genius without ever sacrificing his own ethics. 

Fett Burger and his equally talented brother, Dj Sotofett have worked their asses off over the last 15 years to get where they are now, building Sex Tags literally from the ground up, it took years of hard work to shape the label, nowadays we’re at the mercy of asshole discog’s resellers to even get a sniff of an old release. 

Mr. Burger himself as a DJ is pretty close to god level, the way he plays is like none other, A journeyman that can only be matched by a sherpas donkey running rings around the summits of Mt. Everest. If you’ve been lucky enough to see him play then you know exactly what I’m talking about. 

The mix itself, a toxic blend of disco, funk, soul and reggae, a perfect soundtrack to dancing in the kitchen. A guaranteed mood heightener, A contagious trip amongst the stars, even your mum will enjoy. Scientifically impossible to not nod your head for an hour and a half, this won’t leave your portable media player for years to come. 

I’ve been lucky to get to know the burg’s over the last couple of years as we’ve had him at Inner Varnika for the last 3 and he’s helped us evolve the festival into something we only dreamed of, he truly ‘gets it’ more than most and he’s always happy to help in any way possible with a side of the driest humour known to man. It’s an absolute honor to put this mix out, it brings to light exactly what we’re about, which is completely open to interpretation. 

ha det gøy og nyte trygt!!!

Emma Stevenson - MFB

Recording from exhibition launch, 07 March - part of VAMFF Program 2019.

Graduating students of RMIT’s Master of Fashion (Design), Nicole Anderson and Samantha Clark, present “Material Fetishes”, a multimodal fashion exhibition that utilises performance to explore sensory relationships with clothing.

Fashion is a confounding term, depending on how one wants to engage in conversation with fashion is driven by the scale of the encounter. Here we see cultural narratives of the feminine body as it is constructed through art, film, literature and popular culture. At a close range fashion is sensual and erotic, the garment is all but textile, body heat, sweat and perfume. The electric vibration of velvet as the hand passes over it. Or the insubstantial sexually provocative nature that is attributed to latex, suggestive of a guilty secret.

Samantha Clark presents ‘Performing Fetishism’, a project that examines the idea that fetishism has morphed into a form of style that women may slip on and take off as easily as a costume on the basis of “the surface qualities of the spectacle”. Nicole Anderson explores ‘The Sublime Space’, an investigation into how digital and tactile surface design can connect with the unconscious to communicate and provoke complex emotions. Together they offer a series of performances and garments that use print and craft-based techniques to engage with narratives that many may find difficult to convey in words. As objects, these cultural curiosities may hold or hint at aspects of our own fantasies and identities, but the expression of a sensation is something that can be rarely empathised with by another.

Emma Stevenson - good morning freqs

Passing Notes welcomes its second virtual guest, Gallery B. Gallery B aka Emma Stevenson is the kind of artist that can craft a set for every possible occasion - something that I’ve been admiring through delving into her vast back catalogue of inspiring mixes.  Such versatility only comes to the deepest of diggers, those that consider music and sound in all its forms. Emma’s deep appreciation for music and sound has also found her stepping away from the booth and into the studio, recently launching her moniker Gallery B, which encompasses her exquisite contemporary ambient project. 

Her debut tape release “Omni Era” on Divisions is simply mesmerising. Stunning layers of texture created through hardware, sampling and field recordings. Trance-like ambience for contemplation, reflection, dreaming. Anyone to hear this could mistake this for years experience - I eagerly await her ‘Dream Machine’ performance at Inner Varnika 2021 as well as what’s to come for Gallery B. 

Here, Gallery B presents an off the cuff mix of UK downtempo and ambient techno, the perfect beginning to any Passing Notes episode.
