G'day! Name's Al Newstead, keen to answer all your questions at 6pm today (Sun 15 March).
You might remember me from presenting the 12.30 music news bulletin on triple j Lunch (chiefly with Lewis McKirdy and Gen Fricker) and writing all the online articles, announces and feature album reviews.

I love how much this has been the antidote to A.I slop on commercial radio. Potential entry into the Hottest 100?

Foreverafter Festival - whose going and what do you want to see
Whose going to the Foreverafter Festival with Presets, Ladyhawke, Cut Copy etc. It's very Nevereverland coded which was a Modular People festival which all these acts were on the lineup for in 2008 and I think were all signed to the record label Modular People. What do people want to see at the festival? I would love it if the artists on the bill did some collabs or even brought in members of other acts from that late 2000s Modular People era such as Muscles or Van She Tech to do a song on stage and just celebrate that indiedance scene of the era. Just go full self indulgent and celebrate the indiedance scene, pack it full of cameos from artists of that scene. I hope they make it more of a vibe with the art and a celebration of the scene and not just a cash grab - because thats how you revive a scene by making memorable collaborative musical moments. What would people like to see at the festival?

Tame Impala/Kevin Parker and the downfall of Modular People and destroyed careers of label artists such as Muscles
Has Kevin Parker ever taken any responsibility for the trail of destruction the dispute over his royalties from his initial record label Modular People caused - mainly for the acts on that label that were wiped out after the label collapsed following the legal action. Modular People had a range of lesser acts like Muscles who had moderate success in the Triple J hottest 100, whose careers were wiped out by the collapse of their record label. I understand it's a complicated situation, and I think Kevin was in the right to seek his royalties, but the other bands on the label were innocent bystanders/victims and Kevin / Tame Impala seem to have done nothing to try and promote them or ensure they were looked after in the wake of the lawsuit and legal action. From what I've read, the unpaid royalties seem to have arisen from a misunderstanding in accounting in Australia/Uk versus the USA. If you look at Kevin's collab history and writing credits he has basically abandoned the Australian scene for the past 10 years just working with big internationals like Dua Lipa, Justice, Gaga but made not attempt to pull up some other local Aussies into that world at all. Kevin why don't you remember your roots and work with some of your old Modular People alumni like Muscles to make up for the unintended consequences of the legal action. If you never became hyper successful, the collapse of Modular People may never have arisen and these people might have been able to maintain a career.
----
TLDR: I love Kevin Parker and Tame Impala, I just think that seeing how well things have worked out for him, helping out these artists that had their careers wiped out by unintended consequences of the Modular Collapse would be the right thing

What song has a high rotation ruined for you.
For me its Kobie Dee's - " Aim for the stars"
I freaking loved it when it first came out and was already shortlistes to my hottest list but its repeated more than Nova repeats their Ads.
I think it will still make the cut cos hopefully it will get less air play on the next few months...
Also keen to hear any input on a more played track... drifting clouds would be close
