Ratking

'Binge And Burn' sees Ratking cementing their place in Australian hardcore punk.

Perth's favourite hardcore bois Ratking have dropped a new ripper tune called Down The Line, it's out tomorrow and their launch show is going on sale tomorrow too! The lads say of the song: "In a day and age where everyone only puts their greatest achievements and their latest holidays online, it’s hard to watch - it is so easy to feel like you’ve fallen behind. Not getting to that social/monetary position you placed on a pedestal is a hard pill to swallow." Hell yeah, that sucks.

The Ratking lads initially had an idea for this video that involved putting themselves in incredibly anxiety-inducing situations, but realised that it would be way too hectic for their mental health - so decided to go with the safety of a green screen instead! I'd say that's a great idea. Suffering for one's art is one thing. Wilfully burying one's self alive with a camera - HELL NAH.

Ratking are releasing their new EP 'Nervous Nature' on Friday June 17 - and they dropped an absolute ripper of a track in 'Panic Station' last month, so we had to catch up with AJ from the band about it. Alex Callan jumped on Zoom to get the lowdown.

No, it's NOT the C-Tier Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles villain - it's the EXCELLENT Perth punk/hardcore outfit RATKING! We are premiering their brand new single 'Panic Station' - and they are announcing their EP Nervous Nature!

Download the second installment of Ryan Hemsworth's Secret Songs compilation.. If only more producers were as benevolent with their research and dubs as our ol’ m8 Ryan Hemsworth. Hemsworth’s Secret Songs Soundcloud is where he gets behind music he’s vibing, with new tracks usually uploaded every couple of weeks for free download. What started out as something fairly simple has grown into a thriving platform for burgeoning artists and a go-to repository for weird music nerds like us. Today, Hemsworth released his sophomore Secret Songs compilation, a collection of original, new music the Canadian producer has unearthed from the depths of his Internet / email / Twitter DMs. No idea why it’s called "secret" songs though, because Ryan Hemsworth getting behind an emerging artist is like sounding a giant air horn across the Internet. Case in point being UK-based J-pop trio Kero Kero Bonito, who featured on Hemsworth’s first ever Secret Songs compilation, released in September last year. Whe
