Lewis Coleman by Darvid Thor

Lewis Coleman - Offline

Mon 23 Oct 2023 to Sun 29 Oct 2023
Feature Sounds

Lewis Coleman’s Offline is this week’s PBS Feature Album. Offline is a collection of songs grounded in a desire to generate a current within stagnant and hopeless waters. It marks a significant departure from Coleman's previous, more brooding and introverted record Method of Places, and as he leans into a more confident, outward facing aspect of himself, so too does Offline. It’s music replete with playful arrangements and kinetic opportunity and, as Coleman states, “songs that are hot, warm, saturated and fun”.

Maple Glider - I Get Into Trouble

Mon 16 Oct 2023 to Sun 22 Oct 2023
Feature Sounds

Maple Glider’s much anticipated second album, I Get Into Trouble, is this week’s PBS Feature Album.

On the LP, Maple Glider - the moniker of singer-songwriter Tori Zietsch - delves back into her Christian childhood; explores her relationship to her body; consent; shame; and the death of relationships, both romantic and familial. But it’s also hopeful - there is new life, new love, and the desire to reconnect and find peace with it all. The majority of songs are performed on acoustic guitar - the exceptions being the slinky 'Two Years' and lockdown lullaby 'Scream'.

Fellow community radio station SYN is at risk of disappearing after 20 years of platforming young people’s voices across Melbourne, Geelong and the country.

Despite the efforts to keep up with the already catastrophic hit the station took in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, inflation and an unexpected loss of core funding from the state government, they have now turned to their cash reserves – funds which can only support them for so long.
