  • Making It in the Melbourne Music Scene Post-Punk and Post-Post-Punk
    Making it in the Melbourne Music Scene Post-Punk and Post-Post-Punk Dr Sarah Taylor School of Science RMIT University Victoria, Australia [email protected] This paper uses contemporary documentation, interviews and maps to highlight the different types of music careers, and modes of “making it”, seen in the 1986 feature film Dogs in Space. The film concerns a fictional band of the same name, based on The Ears, a minor group active in the Melbourne band scene between 1979-1981. INXS’s Michael Hutchence plays Sam, the singer in post punk group Dogs in Space. The contrast between Hutchence and Sejavka was seen as remarkable: a major-league rock star, having “made it” by the time of the film’s production, portraying a relatively obscure post-punk musician. However, the trajectories of these bands did overlap in time and place. An historical geographical analysis of INXS and The Ears can help to add context to the Melbourne music scene depicted in the film, as well as to the later cult status popularity of the film, made during a transitional time between norms in the Australian music industry. Keywords — Music industry; post punk; Melbourne; INXS; The Ears; Dogs In Space; restructuring. INTRODUCTION I was far more interested in doing, instead of your rags-to-riches pop star story, your rags-to-gutter story... by actually showing the ones that don’t become famous. — Richard Lowenstein, director of Dogs in Space (quoted in Coupe, 1986) At the time of its release in late 1986, Dogs in Space provided a compelling contrast between the heights of music industry success enjoyed by one of its stars, Michel Hutchence, and the exciting but imploding music movement it depicted (Smith, 1986, McGregor, 1986, Coupe, 1986).

  • Jimmy Barnes
    Jimmy Barnes Australia's favourite Rock & Roll singer Jimmy Barnes has been there, done that, and now he’s glad to be back. Australia’s favourite rock and roll singer for more than three decades, in the 70’s, 80’s he was the loudest, wildest and most popular rock and roll star in the country. In the 90’s Jimmy reached mega stardom with back to back #1 albums in both soul and rock genres. Jimmy Barnes’ soaring career began when aged just 16, he played his second gig as lead singer of the band that was to become Cold Chisel, on the back of a truck one hot Saturday at Gawler Raceway in Adelaide, South Australia. A couple of years later, the band attracted such crowds that fans drive a ute through the back of Larg’s Pier Hotel just to get in. By 1978, Cold Chisel was a nasty rock and roll band reputed for tearing up pubs in Sydney and Melbourne. Cold Chisel’s first single Khe Sanh was banned from commercial radio. Despite this, fans flocked to see them, knowing that when they bought a ticket at the door, all best were off – with Jimmy out font slugging spirits and using his voice to duel with the soaring guitar lines from Ian Moss, Cold Chisel delivered like rock & roll is supposed to and rarely does. Cold Chisel came to an end in December 1983 with the largest concert tour ever undertaken by an Australian band – a record that still stands over twenty years on. Within a month of the band finishing, Jimmy Barnes was on the road again with a new band and ten months on from that in October, 1984, he released his first solo album, Bodyswerve.

  • Life in a Padded Cell: a Biography of Tony Cohen, Australian Sound Engineer by Dale Blair ©Copyright
    Life in a Padded Cell: A Biography of Tony Cohen, Australian Sound Engineer by Dale Blair ©copyright ~ One ~ Satan has possessed your Soul! ‘Tony is very devout in “God’s Lesson”. I cannot speak highly enough of Tony’s manners and behaviour. They are beyond reproach’. It was the sort of report card every parent liked to see. It was 1964. The Beatles were big and Tony Cohen was a Grade One student at St. Francis de Sales primary school, East Ringwood. The following year he took his first communion. The Beatles were still big and there seemed little to fear for the parents of this conscientious and attentive eight-year-old boy. The sisters who taught him at that early age would doubtless have been shocked at the life he would come to lead – a life that could hardly be described as devout. Tony Cohen was born on 4 June 1957 in the maternity ward of the Jessie MacPherson hospital in Melbourne. Now a place specializing in the treatment of cancer patients it was a general hospital then. He was christened Anthony Lawrence Cohen. His parents Philip and Margaret Cohen had been living in James Street, Windsor, but had moved to the outer eastern suburb of East Ringwood prior to the birth of their son. Philip Cohen was the son of Jewish immigrants who had left Manchester, England, and settled in Prahran, one of Melbourne’s inner eastern suburbs. Philip’s father had served in the First World War, survived and then migrated to Australia with his wife and infant son (Tony’s Uncle David).

  • ABC Submission to Creative and Cultural Industries
    ABC Submission on the Australian Government’s “Inquiry into Australia’s Creative and Cultural Industries and Institutions” October 2020 • The ABC is at the heart of Australia’s creative and cultural industries, which deliver significant economic and social benefits for Australian society. As an engine of creative development, employment and innovation, the ABC helps to support and promote these industries in line with its Charter obligations. • The ABC contributes economic benefits as a significant employer of content makers, through partnerships/interactions with other organisations (including in the screen, music, arts sectors), and through regional production and events. It also contributes broader social benefits by: providing a national platform upon which local artists and content makers can be “discovered”; as a primary way for audiences to discover and enjoy Australian creative and cultural content; and by supporting Australian storytelling (whether through the screen, music, written word or other creative outlets) and events that contribute to our national identity. • COVID-19 has had a significant impact on live performance and the broader creative and cultural industries. In line with its Charter requirement to encourage and promote the musical, dramatic, and other performing arts in Australia, the ABC has found additional ways to support Australian artists and creatives impacted by the COVID- 19 pandemic. • The Australian Government has a range of policy tools at its disposal to support the activities of Australia's creative and cultural industries and institutions. Some have recently been deployed in response to the challenges presented by COVID-19. Adequate and sustainable funding for public broadcasters remains one of the most direct and proven ways to help support and sustain these industries and institutions.
