It's probably true to say that music as an artform has been evolving ever since the first tribesmen and women cast sticks upon fallen logs. It's evolution in the truest sense of the word: new music builds up upon the old, keeping its best elements and refining it's worst. But as time goes on, the refinements become more and more subtle as we reach ever closer towards the limits of the artform.

What's all this pseudo-darwinist shit?? Well I still reserve a special place for tunes that bowl me over with their originality. Their disregard for the enticing shoulders of previous artists is hugely commendable. This nugget comes care of Sydney mostly-solo artist Anthony Jenkins. Sure, sampling's not new, but the unabashed naffness is certainly refreshing. It's part TV theme song, part toy-keyboard demo-button - and is set to raise eyebrows once it hits the Sydney music community at large. I called Anthony up to do the guest programming duties, and he delievered a super-eclectic set (check it below).
