The Prom Mixtape

Bourgeois Bogan co-founder Petro Vouris (AKA Cluedo Pierres, Petrosex, Silkie Krusher, Elvis Penis) took a ride back in time in the DeLorean to make us a special ‘Best of the Perth Proms’ mixtape! It’s totally dancefloor-dreamy.

Eggs Press

Eggs Press is a hot rival to crack the duopoly of Perth street presses, all the way to the yolk.

Hobart Deli

If you're looking for an antidote to any 20-something cluckiness, without compromising the integrity of your birthing bits, Hobart Deli provides the perfect pill, with a long Macc on the side.

Kookaburra Outdoor Cinema Mundaring

This outdoor cinema is located up bush in the Mundaring Hills. If you can find it without Google, you’re doing well (No, you’re not. You’re lost. You need Google Maps).

Martha Marcy May Marlene

Writer-director Sean Durkin’s debut feature is subtly, almost perfectly calibrated between idyllic and terrifying, all the way to its chillingly ambiguous ending.

Teen Angels

Since 1979, Teen Angels has been a testament to the fact that some very real people live lives that are very different from ours. Cover-to-cover, each issue reprints handmade art from Chicano contributors. Awash with guns, lowriders, hot babes and gang paraphernalia, you can argue that it glamorises some unhealthy practices, but like N.W.A., this is also simply a case of people reporting on the world they already live in.

Various, ‘SPACED: Art Out of Place’

21 contemporary artists got thrown into 16 regional Australian communities where they created work that bridges the gap between the ivory tower of academic art and the ordinary experience of a non-typical art consumer.

DIY Tequila Peanut Butter Cups

If people at work are giving you crap for your lame lunches, show them that you know how to bring the party by throwing a few home-made tequila peanut butter cups under the lid.

Various Artists, ‘The Conservatorium’

The Conservatorium speaks to both the practice and thematic impulses behind an empty jar.

Weekend

Weekend does an excellent job portraying the many modern day complexities of meeting someone you like, letting (or not letting) them know, and starting (or not starting) a relationship.
