Jim Dusty - Latest & Greatest Hits
The first record I worked on for something other than myself was Jim Dusty’s previous EP Perpetual Customer. So it was great to have another opportunity to work together on a larger project. The project was recorded in between lockdowns in various bedrooms and living rooms between Ngunnawal country and Wurundjeri land.
We had a lot of fun playing with mixed fidelities and taking elements from different genres of music and putting them next to and on top of each other.
A particular favourite is New World Sick, a post punk epic that does not relent for a second.
The first track also features my debut on the spoons and jaw harp.
Released 18th of November 2022
