Our Rules

  1. All posts must be related to triple j, Double J or triple j Unearthed. Please use the relevant link flair for Hack, Double J and Unearthed posts. Posts that relate to specific artists, festivals, or other similar topics but aren't directly about triple j are welcome if they are featured on the station. Repetitive posts on these topics may be removed. Non triple j discussion is welcome in our weekly general discussion threads. This includes discussion of general Australian music topics.

  2. Be civil. Please don't: insult others, be abusive, bully, or be rude. Please remember that music is subjective. Another person's taste, while not necessarily the same as yours, is no less valid. Trolling, hate speech, and other bigotry will not be tolerated. Negative opinions should be expressed in a civil manner and backed up with discussion.

  3. No low-effort text posts or titles. Text post contents and titles must include sufficient detail to facilitate comments and discussion. Low-effort text posts such as moans or complaints are better suited to our general discussion threads and may be removed at moderator discretion. Other low-effort content such as memes and social media screenshots may also be removed.

  4. All Hottest 100 prediction posts and comments outside of spoiler-flagged posts must be flagged with spoilers. Hottest 100 predictions include predictive countdowns and betting odds. To flag a post with spoilers there is an option underneath the post to mark it as a spoiler. The title of the post itself should not contain spoilers. To flag a comment with spoilers you can use markdown >!your text here!< or on new reddit by highlighting the text and clicking the exclamation mark.

  5. Posts and comments should not primarily aim to persuade others to vote for a particular artist or song in the Hottest 100. Artists who wish to submit their own music for awareness during Hottest 100 voting period should not use language which directly persuades others to vote for them and should also follow Reddit's guidelines for self-promotion.

  6. Follow the Reddit Content Policy, Reddiquette and Reddit's guidelines for self-promotion. This includes no posts or comments soliciting or linking to illegal streams or downloads.

Aurora borealis

Since the apparent news of a viewable Aurora tonight I’ve had a song stuck in my head with the lyric “Aurora borealis” but I can’t for the life of me remember anything else about the song. Played on the j’s early 2010’s I’m thinking. Maybe Indy/rock sound. Any ideas?

New artist from one of the Telenova band members!

I absolutely love Telenova and heard that a new artist is going to be releasing some tunes! Her name is Bernadette Novembre - saw her perform at The Espy a while back and she was electric! She’s apparently worked with Josh from Telenova on this new stuff! 😍

Pandemonium Festival - Bribie Island/Brisbane refunds

Hi folks

Since opting for the “net refund” option offered via the form sent out (that had no confirmation email of course), I have heard nothing back, and both Oztix and Pandemonium are completely unresponsive to me.

I was hoping others who also opted for the net refund could chime in and let me know if you have received it yet? Or heard anything at all? Its seeming more and more likely that they are just running off with my money.

I am so angry with these criminal promoters. Absolutely disgusting treatment. McManus is a disgrace and deserves the worst.

I just want my money back and to move on with my life after this appalling experience.

Cheers

Triple J listeners of the 90’s: Did the Biggie/2Pac feud get much coverage on the station at the time?

So anyone following music news will know that the Drake/Kendrick Lamar feud is the biggest story in music right now. Naturally, Triple J would talk about it seeing as both artists are two of the biggest right now and have had sizable amounts of Triple J airplay. It does have me thinking about the last time we arguably had a rap feud this big; The Notorious B.I.G. vs. 2Pac in the 1990s.

To anyone here who remembers Triple J in the 90’s (and I know there’s a fair few of you), did the station talk about it or play the diss tracks much at all? I know that, judging from the Hottest 100s, it seems Triple J was a much more rock-centric station at the time. But I do recall California Love getting into a Hottest 100, so I imagine this feud was at least on the radar for the J’s.

Anyone else find the Glass Animals tix “competition” extremely uncomfortable this morning?

I get it, they’re giving away last minute tickets to a surprise concert. But the way Bryce especially was pushing for people to say they’d quit their jobs for this concert and MEAN IT made me super uncomfortable. Enthusiasm wasn’t enough. They wanted extreme examples of what people would be “willing to do” for these tickets to show how devoted they are.

Big sorority/fraternity pledge vibes and “throw your job away for 1 day of a concert you have to get yourself to” feels very tone deaf to the issues and cost of living pressure most people are dealing with at the moment.

I’m not usually one to clutch my pearls, but I had to turn the radio off this morning. Not good vibes guys.

Triple J supporting live/local music

I’ve recently started tuning into Triple J a lot more since the start of the year. Just wondering if they still have gig guides? Not talking about the big international acts who are doing national tours to support album release or sideshows for festivals (when there was such a thing). Talking about proper gigs at local pubs. In Melbourne for example, The Beaches, The Clouds and British India are all playing shows (two of which are sold out). Wouldn’t it be great to have them talking about the shows and hyping pubs like The Corner and supporting these “grass roots” gigs that are still going strong. It’s easy to follow Billie or TSwift and hype that up. But that doesn’t need the hype. It’s not gonna kill them to play a Beaches or Clouds song on the back of a mention that these gigs were once the staple of the Australian music industry is it? Hell, they could even start sending their live music team out to record some of these for LATW. Just a thought as I was driving to work this morning. Hit me with why you think it would or wouldn’t work. Yours in love and music. BFB

Bryce and concetta / Abby and Tyrone

What's with the constant cross promotion of Abby and Tyrone from Bryce and Concetta? It's so blatantly obvious that they're promoting them every single morning. If the show is struggling that much after this long and after changing the times they're on, surely it's time to make a change? Clearly it's not working but I don't listen to Abby and Tyrone because they aren't any good yet I have to hear them constantly every morning in a desperate attempt to improve their listener numbers.

Listen out 2024 - hype and news?

Listen out is my favourite festival every year as they seem to always get great artists (both international and local) and I’m already excited for this year

All that being said, this time last year they had already started posting about the festival and teasing lineup stuff, the listen out IG account has been quiet apart from posting some pics of last years festival a couple weeks ago

With all the cancelations of festivals this year I’m just really hoping listen out happens

Anyone heard anything or know of artist rumours? Cheers
