NWA Releases Volume Three

One person’s meat is indeed another’s poison. And with this old adage in mind, broadcasters Stuart Buchanan and Danny Jumpertz have launched the third volume of New Weird Australia.

The free compilation of eclectic and experimental Australian music can be downloaded for free via the NWA website. It features artwork by zine editor Lee Tran Lam and new releases from Afxjim, Alps, Bum Creek, Anon, 48/4, Zeal, Drive West Today, Erasers, Pompey, Jeff Burch (Songs) and The Singing Skies (aka Moonmilk's Kell Derrig-Hall).

“Given that we’re now on our third volume, we understand that in order to go deep, we also have to go wide – which means fucking with the boundaries at both ends of the spectrum,” write the pair in the sleeve notes accompanying the release. “From Zeal’s quasi-Anticon hip-pop to Anon’s 14-min noise excursion, Volume Three does indeed traverse considerable distances.”

The next volume of New Weird Australia will be available in two months. You can read an interview with Buchanan here.
