In Perth, WA we have the Cactus, the official name is “Grow Your Own”, but it’s definitely The Cactus.

Hr24@aussie.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I am doing DMT for the first time, what should I do to prepare?2·6 months agoTotally agree with the music point. ‘Everything I It’s Right Place’ still takes me back to the creek of neon organisms I was floating along. It lulled me into that place quite nicely.
Yeah look, they’re not all as good as 30/70, I definitely don’t like any as much. Enjoy regardless.
Cookin’ On 3 Burners - Organ funk
Odette Mercy and her Soul Atomics - female led soul grooves
30/70 Collective - funkified jazz and neo soul
Dyslexic Fish (now defunkt)
You’ve posted a few I haven’t heard, I will check them out.
Thanks heaps.
Community/College Radio is such an under utilised source IMO. No pay to play artists. Often a focus on local artists. Gigs and events focussed on the community. It’s the best. Do you have radio station recommendations?
Hr24@aussie.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Found a Bizarre Invitation in a Transylvanian Library... Anyone else seen anything like this?1·11 months agoNo, unfortunately not. Was just wondering. Good job solving the riddle. I found it on their website, but it has only added to my track record of sucking at riddles.

Hr24@aussie.zoneto Rage@aussie.zone•Aussie Lemmyvision 2 Nomination Voting (closes 31 March)5·1 year agoIt’s funny, I’ve always wanted TISM to represent Oz in Eurovision, however this song is way to Aussie specific for me to vote it highly this time.

Hr24@aussie.zoneOPto Rage@aussie.zone•Lemmyvision Nomination: Amyl and the Sniffers - U Should Not Be Doing That3·1 year agoI know what you’re saying. Plenty of good Aussie rock and punk atm. But they’re flying that flag bold and high. Also, they put on a hell of a show.
NOMINATION: AMYL AND THE SNIFFERS - U SHOULD NOT BE DOING THAT
This is a fun number with the middle finger firmly held up.
Bonus points for Australian place names??
I’m not very knowledgeable on J-Jazz, but BBE records has a bunch of compilations and re-releases. I really enjoyed this comp by DJ Muro.
Still haven’t listened to the new Cure album. But Romance is probably my AOTY. Nobody Loves You More is great.
Greensleeves is the only ice cream van song I’ve heard in Australia.
Hr24@aussie.zoneto Espresso@infosec.pub•Flair launch Kickstarter for new espresso makerEnglish2·2 years agoLol, I couldn’t think of any one more appropriate to answer my question than MostlyBlindGamer.
Hr24@aussie.zoneto Espresso@infosec.pub•Flair launch Kickstarter for new espresso makerEnglish6·2 years agoAnyone see the weight of the unit listed anywhere? Not sure if I’m blind, or it hasn’t been listed?
Hr24@aussie.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Anybody familiar with optician work able to tell me if this optician was lying?5·2 years agoYeah, we deal with some practices that don’t easily share prescriptions. There’s always bad eggs! If a customer asked for their PD I’d give it to them, but conversely if a customer came to me wanting lenses and told me their PD I’d measure it anyways. It’s really only important for you to know if you’re ordering lenses online.
We also had The Kebab (officially the Ore Obelisk), but it was removed for maintenance years ago, and recently forever replaced with an astronaut, unfortunately.
