‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division

  ‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division In ‘The Journey,’ a sonic mosaic unfolds that—permeated by neon-soaked synth pads and a melody that feels like memory—is less a song than a spiritual compass.

Photography, here metaphorically as a key to the past, opens doors to moments that seem long gone but live on within us. The chorus – a kind of collective mantra – describes not just a journey, but an intertwining of stories that support each other.

The Artist: Iain T. McKelvey & The Midnight Tangos - "Raise your wine"

Iain T. McKelvey & The Midnight Tangos are a steamboat chugging purposefully down the Cooks River, dodging discarded bikes and semi-submerged shopping trolleys, picking up whomever thinks they can handle the revelry along the way. Iain T. McKelvey is a storyteller, The Midnight Tangos are an extension of that story, helping shape the ideas and get them on tape. The physical and sonic expansion. Iain T. McKelvey & The Midnight Tangos are part classic, part modern, all time. Make sure you’re at the jetty waiting to enjoy the ride. 'Raise Your Wine' is defiant in it's melancholy - an ode to accepting mistakes, embracing your friends, revelling in the good times, and sharing a drink with the ones who were there throughit all. The result is an enveloping, lush and warm experience, best enjoyed with a glass of your favourite vino. So we have to say Achtung: it's rocking, it's rolling and it tells you a story so we raise our wine!!
