dualpLOVER is a musical orphanage, releasing homeless destitute music of all kinds, from avant-pop to noise to hip-hop to vaudeville to post punk to electronica. Our name is the literal translation for the Japanese words for double-ended dildo, which is an analogy on how we like to do things here (take it in from all directions) We also distribute music from all over, broker CD/DVD manufacturing, promote shows and tours, priding ourselves in our doing these things differently from most.
dualpLOVER has decided to release a Justice Yeldham picture disc as a must have souvenir item for the upcoming Justice Yeldham tour of Europe in April. To realise this release we need to raise AUD$1500 to cover the minimum pressing of 250 units, and have decided to crowd soucre the project using a pre-sale model to make sure all copies have good homes before we even press the record. Our prices start at a little above cost for people able to pick up the discs in person during the tour. The final release will be pressed to meet our pledge requirements + 50 copies to sell on the tour after that no other copies will be made available.
Side A 180111 Sydney 10:24 (recorded live at serial space Sydney by Jon Hunter)
Side B March of the Bodypumpers 4:54 (previously available as mp3 download via Wire magazine) a third track completing side B has yet to be determined.
Our newest release is the first in what will probably become the labels main format as the demand for hard copy disc has gone. FRom now on unless we decide on a special vinyl release everything will be free downloads via the free music archive and this is the first.
Rully Shabara (Zoo) and Wukir Suryadi performing at Grub in Sydney June 2011 also featuring a bonus Jam with Lucas Abela.

Ahoy Clubbers get ready to rumble as Los Angeles’ godlike Captain Ahab return with the Australian red edition of End of Irony. Seamen of the highest order team Ahab are part machine, part dance savant, who spout post club raveploitation music riddled with estranging misogynistic lyrics with a thoroughly homoerotic aftertaste.
No plain sailing, this new LP/CD set is packed with exclusive tracks like Lift Me Up, Club Girl, The Litany of Captain Ahab, After the Party, The End of Irony & Pornography and for the first time on Vinyl (or any tangible format for that matter) Rock & Roll Positive and Was Love plus drastically reworked versions of Get Fucked in the Club, How 2 Party, The Calm Before the Sword.

American Song/Poems companies have exisited for decades, basically song sharks who prey on amateur lyricists, exploiting their ambition to break into the music business. Under the guise of a co-writing ‘partnership’, they will hastily arrange accompanying music to basically any lyrics sent in, for a fee! pitting the naivety of aspiring song writers from across North America with bored overworked sweatshop musicians.
Although their heyday was throughout the 50's 60's and 70's Incredibly I discovered these companies still exist to this day so I decided to hear what they would come up with if i presented them with some of Australia's biggest hits that failed to chart in America. So i pretended these lyrics as my own sending them lyrics to two companies, Magic Key in Utah and The Nashville Song Service in Tennessee, asking them to compose music for them.
to celebrate dualpLOVER's first Free Digital Download release we are going to have a listening party for these and other song poem gems as well as a screening of the incredible documentary 'Off the Charts: The Song-Poem Story' which features appearances by David Fox at Magic Key who had a go at writing music for the Skyhooks - Ego, Radiators - Gimme head and Mondo Rocks - Come Said the Boy!!!.

//HORSEMACGYVER\\\ (canberra)

FUCKED
Robbie Avenaim and Lloyd Honeybrook are Fucked. In every sense of the word. The two have been playing together in various forms for half a decade, but with both exploring the sheer extremities of their respective instruments - Robbie with his mechanical kick-drum pedals and Lloyd with his feedback sax - this duo is undoubtedly the most fucked thing they've done. Sonically somewhere between Borbetomagus, Napalm Death demos and your unfavourite noisecore band, but so much more antagonistic. These guys take 1600 bpm bass drum blastbeats and hideously loud saxophony to exactly where you would expect it: pure fuckedness. Fresh off their Japan tour where they collaborated with the likes of Optron (Atsuhiro Ito) and Shoji Hano (High Rise), and shared stages with Corrupted, Lasse Marhaug, Otomo Yoshihide and other purveyors of brutality, the two are pushing themselves even harder to levels of devastation. First Sydney show!

Martin Ng
Martin, formerly known as DJ Scalpel Chest is considered the 4th sexiest Asian man in Sydney. He was also runner-up in the Dr Hot competition of 1999. As a heart surgeon, an extraordinary musician and experimental sound artist, Martin is at the cutting edge of a new musical genre dubbed 'cardiologycore' (though rival medical teams have also dubbed the genre 'ambient post-heartbreak doom'). He also spent time hitting the skins for The Transplants, keeping the pulse of the band's melodic punk roots alive, in the same vein as Artery Agogo. Martin now divides his interest between twirling the needles in the suture room and twirling the decks.
