100% of revenue will be donated to Aboriginal Legal Service Redfern
Much loved underground music and culture podcast Parry Talks, hosted by Parry Tritsiniotis, has announced its first foray into the world of releasing music, and today unveils its first VA release. Comprised of tracks from PT alumni and previous podcast guests, PT001 is a thrilling exhibition of the rich community Parry Talks has represented for over a year and its diverse musical offerings.
The digital only, Bandcamp exclusive release features a who’s who of Sydney’s underground dance community, and 100% of sales being donated to Aboriginal Legal Service Redfern. While the guests of the show have been far-reaching, the roots of the project however live in dance music, hence the record labels entering into that space.
On the creation of the VA, Parry stated, ‘Parry Talks has always been about community impact and engagement. Rather than channeling it from one angle, media, releasing records with a community focus extends the Parry Talks ethos to new and expansive territories, effecting dance and local communities on a larger scale’
Velodrome’s PZ Specialist offerings up a nature-fulled, trippy dub experience, filled with familiar noises and an infectious underlying downtempo groove, while Body Corp, fresh from releasing an EP on Soothsayer, takes a darker, clubbier turn on his offering.
A stalwart in the Sydney dance scene, Lex Deluxe contributes a River Yarra-meets-Roza-Terenzi, 4/4 glitchy bass-fuelled belter on her track, and Caitlin Medcalf makes her production debut with 'Gel' — a slow building, omnipresent, churning, 909-tinged banger.
Off the back of a hot Gallery Release, the Sydney bred, LA based AK SPORTS lightens the tracklist up drastically with her very relevantly titled Free Britney. It's a stereotypical glitzy, 2-step garage banger with a dark twist in its second half, before AREA CODE wraps up the entire release in style with the foreboding, peculiar slice of atmospheric electronica with a glitched-out, hip-hop moment to bring it all together.
Parry Talks has become a go-to source for genuine music, fashion and art lovers interested in media with a point of difference. Helmed by Parry Tritisiniotis, Parry Talks’ passionate dedication to the scenes it represents is ingrained in the very DNA of the brand, and its commitment to shining lights on the very best its community has to offer has made for a revered and adored addition to the rich tapestry of the Sydney dance scene and beyond.
