Seems a good place to post this...if anyones after some free Melbourne deep/tech/minimal stuffs...
Unfoundsound - Melbourne Macropus EP
First it was buenos aires. then it was marseille. this time, unfoundsound adds a third chapter to the "location series" with melbourne macropus ep - a compilation of artists hailing from melbourne, australia. the idea transpired while sean o'neal (a.k.a. someone else) was touring around australia in june/july 2007. sean quickly discovered that australia - particularly melbourne - has an intelligent and thriving underground techno scene that is deeply on the rise. and because the melbourne scene is tight-knit and intimate, the city's dope output of minimal goodness seems to be fairly unknown in other parts of the world. but much of melbourne's bomb-ass techno certainly deserves worldwide awareness. thus, unfoundsound presents six tracks of druggy, groovy, head-numbing chooons courtesy of markojux, stuart mckeown, lance harrison, paul agius and craig mcwhinney. yeah, y'all! aussie folk in da house!
Tracklist:
01. Paul Agius - Three Steamed Dim Sims
02. Stuart McKeown - Booze Bus
03. Markojux - Monotreme
04. Lance Harrison - Vegemite on Toast
05. Markojux 7 Stuart Mckeown - Uluroo
06. Craig Mcwhinney - Gold Rush

Vegemite On Toast and Uluroo are the standouts for me, Uluroo is disturbingly great! All good sollid tracks though, some would make great warmup set numbers, or 6am closing time wind down ones too for that matter.
