Hilltop Hoods are the shidizzle! Anyone who appreciates good hiphop should listen to these fellas somehow i feel hiphop coming out from this country and particularly the sydney burbs is largely underrated sure they get airplay now and then on radio stations such as Triple J, fbi, 96.1 and 2ser but i think by being played only on these youth orientated stations this further marginalises the genre of 'aussie hiphop' into a niche culture a shame really but also good in a way because only those who would venture there can get to appreciate the sounds coming from the 'underground'

only after seeing freestyling on a live stage last year did I get back into it I would not purposefully listen to hiphop (was over it years ago) and after seeing a couple of clips of the hilltop hoods I wanted to check out more of these guys...

We don't belong together like Rove and showbiz Hilltop Hoods
I it! biggrin

Something about the aussie inflection and lingo in aussie hiphop that makes me proud to be an Australian albeit for a nanosecond, everything
else makes me ashamed

Awesome, South Dowling St is only 5mins walk from my apartment! biggrin
I checked out the different cameras on the lomo site, but not knowing a hell of alot about photography I came away slightly confused.
The LCA one that you suggested looks awesome, but I'm not sure if it takes 4 frames per photo like the Action Sampler does, which is a huge selling point to me (damn novelties!). Also the site claims to only have second hand LCA's available & in extremely limited numbers. Do you have a second preference seeing as the LCA could be a non event?

Yeah I checked out the Oz site, thats where I saw all the different models.
I do like the novelty factor of the Oktomat & others but I actually really like the soft style of photo that the Holga ones produce... decisions, decisions.
I guess I really should just get off my arse & wander on over to South Dowling St sometime confused
