No Money Weekend
Maximum fun on minimum funds.. Here's our weekly pre-weekend tips for means to extract the mostest fun, on the leastest money. Particularly handy if you spent all your money at Laneway last weekend. Particularly handy if you're spending more time out during the week than you normally would on "just a few casual white wines" and "just a few cheap Fringe Festival shows", that actually amount to a considerable outlay by week's end.  Particularly handy if you left your wallet in the back of a taxi, or you have no idea where you left your wallet. Particularly handy you know exactly where your wallet is, and you know exactly how much money it does not contain.  (Image: Clara Canepa) STATUS MUSIC UPDATEThe Rosemount plays host to a big show presented by Status Factory Records this Friday which is gon’ be a real banger for local music lovers.

New Music: Kodak to Graph – Los Angeles
Found-sound producer Kodak To Graph gives us the first sounds from his debut album.. Florida producer Kodak to Graph aka Michael Maleki, has been getting busy lately. The 23-year-old, who recently announced his massive Break The Ice tour of the US alongside producer buddies Big Wild and OBESON, has just released a new single, Los Angeles. Kodak to Graph found success in 2014 through his consistent release of remixes, such as his remix of Doja Cat’s So High.  The texture-heavy track makes great use of found sound, along with some neat vocal samples and percussive elements. Maleki, who moved to LA during the writing of his new album, told FADER recently that the new single is a “collision of the still and quiet of Florida and the noise and static of downtown LA”. Los Angeles is the first taste of Maleki’s upcoming debut album ISA, which has been set a release date of March 10th. You can listen to the track below, along with the Doja Cat remix.  FACEBOOK / TWITTER / SOUNDCLOUD
