★ G'day!

G'day! I'm Lachlan from Melbourne. Hooked on Nova Hart since 1984 when Triple J played an unreleased late-night reel.

★ A Sceptic's Counter-Argument

My position: great music, bad maths, and too many people who want a mystery. That said, I've been to 22 Listening Nights.

★ Aussie Vinyl & Cassettes

Australian Festival Records pressing (OR-OZ85), thick vinyl with custom green labels.

★ 14.2 Hz Signal Scan

Running spectrum analysis on the Triple J broadcast recording shows the unmistakable 14.2 Hz sub-audible carrier ringing true.

★ Top Track

'Static & Steel' (1988), hands down. Spun this vinyl until the grooves went grey.
