In the past few years, pole dancing has become recognised for its highly effective fitness benefits, the simple fun of twirling around on a pole and the confidence it gives to women for their body image. Kylie J Pole have helped deliver this to hundreds – we’re even betting thousands – of people, and things are about to get a whole lot more interesting with the addition of roller skates…

“Music for me was never a question. I started a band when I was 12 years old and literally from that time I assumed I was going to be a working musician. In saying that, it wasn’t until I was 27 – until I released my first album – so it took me a long time to get there,” Josh Pyke says.

When you sit down to indulge in the one of the country’s finest streetpress magazines, where do you do it from? Are you sitting on your couch in your living room with a latte or maybe something a little bit stronger?

Fat Freddy’s Drop’s new album is one smooth listen. Starting off with the slow burning funk number ‘Wairunga Blues’ the album flicks through reggae, jazz and techno rhythms all with the signature Freddy’s horns. ‘Slings & Arrows’ is a highlight for me, though I’ve always had a thing for the calming, soul-touching nature of a good reggae tune.

With the new Star Wars movie barely a month away, you’d expect the publicity machine to have kicked into overdrive. It hasn’t. And that’s because, while Star Wars is going to be the biggest movie of the year (how big? We’ll get to that), it’s still just a movie, and as such it still has to wait its turn in the scheme of things.

Half Moon Run’s first album Dark Eyes was perfect. Hands down, no doubt about it, perfect. It was one of those releases that you couldn’t possibly imagine a follow up to that would sit on par or above the quality it exuded.

Kate Dempsey knows all too well the pleasures a market can give you, and that’s why she decided to create the Lady Luck Clothing Fair. Heading to St Mary’s Hall in Castlemaine on November 28, the market is a great chance to pick up something special from the 30 clothing stalls, indulge in coffee, ice cream and waffles, watch the pin up fashion parade and much more.

If your work or day is lacking in adventure, and you can’t afford to leave the office and slay some dragons, an Adventure Time quiz is surely the next best thing, right?

A studio sound engineer will oversee and deliver high quality recordings for music, voice overs, instruments and other audible sounds.

Not many people are surprised that my absolute to-die-for fashion destination is New York City. I went once in 2013 on a holiday with my family, and it is without a doubt the most magical place on Earth — apart from Disneyland of course.

Entertaining, provocative and energetic are just three of the words you could use to sum up talented rapper Ivan Ooze. Returning to Beyond The Valley Music Festival as a headliner for the second year in a row, he promises a performance bigger than ever before.

On Friday October 30 the first 2016 Soundwave line up was announced. This announcement comes pretty late in comparison to when previous year’s announcements came and the list seems pretty light on, again, in comparison to previous year’s single and two day events.

Okay, so Soundwave 2016 seems to be a goer after all. The first announcement finally dropped, almost two full months later than speculated, and only three months before the festival is due to take place. Who exactly IS joining the previously drip-fed acts? None other than L7, NOFX, Disturbed, the Prodigy, Hatebreed and Frenzal Rhomb. It’s a ’90s kid’s dream! As we all know, the second announcement is usually a game changer, and it can’t come soon enough.

As a child, being read bedtime stories is often the norm. While this is still true for Sarah Blasko, instead her father nourished her love for music from a young age, often playing his favourite records to the budding songstress.

Despite hordes of fans and a rigorous touring schedule, Hermitude is a rather appropriate name for the electronic duo. While some musicians prefer to have streams of people in and out of the studio, wheeling in ideas and impressions by the barrowful, Luke Dubber and Angus Stuart are much more content sealing themselves away to see what they can conjure on their own.
