Today we’re stoked to be premiering the sophomore single of Melbourne blues-punks Matt Bourke and the Delusional Drunks.

Following the release of Sungai Mix 1 last month, a new mixtape released through Cease and Desist Records that documents the alternative music cultures of Asia between ’64 and ’81, we caught up with curator/researcher/HEXDEBT bassist Isobel D’Cruz to learn a little more about the compilation and Asia’s early counter-culture.

On his debut album Classical and Cool Jazz, Melbourne songwriter Cahill Kelly invites listeners into his evocative world of psychedelic blues blended with a tinge of avant-pop, that easily has us charmed by the inventive folk rocker.
