the beanbag collective

Featuring the leading talents and guiding lights of Stephen?s beanbag scene, the beanbag collective will be bring their unique sound to Brisbane for their first show together outside of someone?s garage. Now you too can experience what all the fuss is about. (page 54 Courier Mail, 14 November 2003)

Developed in the welfare-class suburb of Stephens on the Gold Coast, Australia, beanbag is best described as ?lounge music for people who can?t afford lounges?. It combines elements of turntablism, plunderponica, lounge, glitch, and a hint of disco to create a chaotic yet relaxing blend. Generally played at a reasonable volume, beanbag allows for conversation while providing convenient filler during awkward moments of silence.

Members of the beanbag collective make up the who?s who of beanbag, including slako & Bushsmoker!, Jack Tenner, Gold Coaster, Donald ?Jupiter? Conrad, milo & Captain Quik!, Peter K. Croft, The Einstein of knife design, Palm Bitch, your court-appointed male guardian, and boyfriend & Girlfriend bounce!.

Their combined talents are featured in the pink.dot compilation of music in the beanbag genre, ?beanbag aesthetics?. All those who turn up to SBB with their beanbag will be rewarded with super discounts on copies of ?beanbag aesthetics? for sale at the show.
