Tropical Social Club is here again and guests this month are Old Boy and Albatross. Old Boy and I used to DJ together sometimes back in late 2005 at the 'She's Lost Control' parties at the Brighton Hotel, Albert would usually be there too getting drunk with us. I had just started djing out and about and the stuff I was playing was mainly on a post-punk/left-field disco/new-wave tip. Although it wasn't really that long ago, at the time I don't think I would have been able to tell you a great deal about afro-cosmic or Daniele Baldelli and my knowledge of house music was pretty limited too, but we still played some pretty cool stuff. Anyway next Wednesday we are going to do it all again, we'll be playing a bunch of old post-punk records from groups like The Glaxo Babies, Medium Medium, The Fire Engines, Essendon Airport and all sorts of other stuff thrown in for good measure. If you live in Sydney you'll know how rare it is to hear this kind of music played out anywhere these days, so I hope to see you there.
