Bonus Guest Episode: Zac Abroms goes full 90s nostalgia with CERES

Very excited to have Zac Abroms from Viceroyalty jumping on this bonus mini-ep. 

Zac manages an AMD fave Alice Ivy as well as a couple of others. If you've ever participated in the Melbourne music scene, you've probably come into some sorta contact with Zac. He's either organised the event you went to, did PR for the artist you love, or you've seen him at a show. 

Zac has a good ol' rave about CERES and their big tune from 2018, 'Viv In The Front Seat'.

Bonus Guest Episode: Adam Buncher + David James Young chat bare about 5sos and Julia Jacklin

We got an extra special bonus mini-ep this time ‘round, featuring not one, but two guests! Adam Buncher and David James Young make up half of the excellent podcast Hottest 100s and 1000s, that poddy that unpacks every single song of every single Hottest 100 poll. They’ve been going for a fair few years now, and finished their fifth season, talking through each song of the 1998 Hottest 100 last year. 

Both DJY and Adam have excellent taste, and both have chosen vastly different songs!

You can hear DJY chat bare about 5 Seconds of Summer (YES!). Adam chats about Julia Jacklin’s excellent tune ‘Body’.   

Stream 5SOS here

Stream Julia Jacklin here

Check out more info about Hottest 100s and 1000s here.  

Also recommend checking out DJY’s other work (he’s a great music writer and also hosts another music poddy!). All other things DJY can be found here

Dear Diary,

AMD here. I mean, I know you already know that and everything, but still.

Anyways, everything is going to plan! Episode Six is here, ready to be streamed and loved and shared and all of the good things. This one is really good. Like, it's actually the best (Sorry episodes 1-5 😏). The music is also sooooo good too.

There’s tunes from a whole heap of, like, THE GREATEST artists. All of them are, like, the best. And I know you get me (even if you are just a book that I write my inner most secrets in), but all those artists also get me, like, heaps. I don't know, it's really hard to put into words.

It's got all these in it:
Max Quinn - Serotonin
Japanese Wallpaper - Fooling Around
Jess Locke - My Body Is An Ecosystem
Ro - Fucked Up Over You
Bec Stevens - They Don't Build Cars Like This Anymore
Martin Frawley - You Want Me?

You can stream the tunes at
australianmusicdiaries.com/episodes

I also started this thing where other people can help me each month which is, like, the greatest thing eva - bit.ly/AMD-pozible

My really generous and increds friend Adam Jones helped out with the episode and did the theme music. He is divine 😍

I got some links below and, like, still, I know you aren’t, like, real or anything...but if you were, I know you’d go give us a review on Apple Podcasts.
