Michael Kucykがホストを務めるオーストラリアのラジオ・ショウ/レーベル、[Noise In My Head]の傘下で展開されてきたリイシュー部門[Efficient Space]から、オーストラリアDIYシーンの知られざる80's音源を集めたコンピレーション『OZ Waves』の続編となる『OZ Echoes』が登場。今回も相当濃い内容となっているのでお見逃しなく！

Efficient Space continues to expose Australia’s esoteric musical history with Oz Waves - a collection of 80s DIY recordings, compiled by odd wave anthropologist Steele Bonus.

Definitive proof that inhabitants of the Down Underground were links in a global network of creative kooks, Oz Waves connects those who utilised mobile recording rigs and small press releases to create and disseminate misfit synth-punk, tape loop experiments and inner city pop.

Through overseas mail order exchanges, anonymous groups like Zerox Dreamflesh could find place on Belgian compilations, while Chris and Cosey lullabied their son to sleep with Irena Xero and her interdisciplinary art collective Zip.

Bonus selects 10 survivors from the fertile period (1982-1989), most of which were only issued on cassette in tiny editions of 5 to 100 copies.

M Squared affiliates Prod join the extraterrestrial Software Seduction, He Dark Age’s minimal wave neglect and the irreverent cut ups of The Horse He’s Sick and MK Ultra & the Assassins of Light.

The remaining tracks have been sourced from musicians’ private archives and are being officially released on Oz Waves for the first time - Andy Rantzen’s industrial dub Itch-E & Scratch-E precursor, the buoyant vocal-drone of Ironing Music and Moral Fibro, Sydney’s short lived answer to Weekend and Marine Girls.

With detailed track by track notes, lines are drawn to Severed Heads, Scattered Order and other
