The New Condition

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I was way too deep into ‘80s bubblegum pop when The Cures' Disintegration landed in my lap like a goth baptism. Fast-forward to Robert Smith dedicating “The Drowning Man” to me in Sydney. Coincidence? Maybe. Destiny? Obviously. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Depeche Mode, Violator (Deluxe) Bonus Tracks Edition Radiohead, OK Computer The Cure, Disintegration (Deluxe Edition - Remastered) Disintegration made me cry in the rain, OK Computer made me fear my toaster, and Violator taught me seduction via synth. I’ve never recovered, but at least the soundtrack’s immaculate. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “After Midnight” After Midnight is a love letter to bad decisions & beautiful mistakes. Pop with a pulse; moody, catchy, and just threatening enough to make you dance a little harder. I love it because it sounds like trouble— trouble always has the best bass lines. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Playing Homebake, Sydney. Or was it our old Primary School? Both were great.
