"The difficult second album" - Danny Roberts, A&R manager

This season, the story of Run Home Slow, The Teskey Brother's second studio album released 2nd August 2019.

Following the success of their self-produced debut Half Mile Harvest in 2017 the Warrandyte locals quickly garnered attention in Melbourne, Sydney, London, Berlin, New York and Los Angeles.

To repeat the feat will be no easy task. 

Told over 6 episodes, we follow their rising star, interest from record labels around the globe, intense recording sessions, creative struggles and sold out shows.

 

180 Grams is a production of the Mushroom Group

The show's title, 180 grams, comes from the weight of a collector-edition vinyl record. 

Something special, to keep, to listen to and hopefully appreciate more than once.

180 Grams

An album captures an artist or band in a room with a multitude of distinct personalities all pursuing the same goal: making a new piece of art they can be proud of.  

In a world where so much is laid out for us is there a more nervous and giddy feeling than playing a new album by an artist you love?

The word album has a more obvious etymology than you may think. 

In the early 20th century recorded music was released in a format of 78 Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) Bakelite records containing only a few minutes of music on each side. 

The big black discs were sold in a cardboard album and placed in individual sleeves like the pages of, yep, a photo album.

Fast forward to 1948 and record company Colombia combined business smarts, technological innovation and marketing strategies to popularize the Long Playing Microgroove format or LP as we now know it. 

This changed everything, allowing a longer and more immersive experience for music fans, 17 minutes each side which fit in 90% of symphonies. Classic.

British author Travis Elborough describes the change eloquently: "The album was welded in our collective consciousness".

Developments in the world of vinyl production lead to a warmer, richer sound favoured by audiophiles. Those in the know will tell you the best quality vinyl weigh 180 Grams. 

Most albums weigh 120 or 140 grams but 180 grams vinyl is sturdier, more durable and will last longer without warping.
