The Best Song Ever Written: Setting Sun
Click or not: The Best Song Ever Written: Setting SunMusic, on the whole, is a tool. It’s been used for centuries to invoke trance-like states, to imbue minds with subliminal messaging, to control those same minds. It’s been a huge part of my life, but these days I see it more as a tool of evil rather than good. That’s not to say I… …

Coastal Cruisin In Cut-Offs
Click or not: Coastal Cruisin In Cut-Offs Technically they’re not cut-offs at all, but they’re cool.

The Science Of Suave
Click or not: The Science Of SuaveHoly shit, it’s a good day when the legend of Australian music Mr Kim Salmon pops up in your feed. Especially with the first Scientists record in 35 years due to drop, the suave is back in the swamp. Even at his most haggard, he still has more style and swagger than all you motherfuckers… …

Built To Last: A Journey Through The Cateran Ecomuseum
Click or not: Built To Last: A Journey Through The Cateran EcomuseumOur mad ex-Welly mate Markus ‘Magnus’ Stitz has been setting the bar high for long rides and adventures––that most would deem crazy––for a long while now. He’s also stepped up his film-making and storytelling game in a big way, and combines the two to bring his big world and the many interesting characters he meets… …
