HaydnKeenan Going Down

Dave Graney talks with Haydn Keenan, director and producer of the 1983 Australian Film Going Down which was recently rediscovered by a NYC film distributor and has been re released in a 4k 5.1 restored print. GOING DOWN (1982) is an entertaining odyssey through the pulsating streets of Sydney in the 1980s as four young women spend their last night together. The film stars Tracy Mann (Sleeping Beauty) Vera Plevnik (Monkey Grip), David Argue (Gallipoli) and Esben Storm (Round The Twist), and is directed by Haydn Keenan (27A). "It’s a re-release after 40 years following the film being found in a dvd remainder bin by a distributor in New York. She licensed it and ran it in cinemas across 17 cities to fantastic audience response. That made us think should try to get the movie out here again as it’s just been restored to a beautiful punk, silk screen high colour 4K and 5.1 track It had almost no release in Melbourne as I put it into a cinema in the city which I didn’t know had been running sex movies until the day before we opened! And we’ve got a film called GOING DOWN. The raincoat brigade wanted their money back en mass. In was a total stuff up so its almost a new release. Great music, great cast, great inner city slice of life when there was a band in every pub and the place was exploding."

Dave Graney talks with Cam Butler

World Forever is the twelfth solo album by Australian guitar slinger / composer Cam Butler (Silver Ray, Ron S. Peno and the Superstitions). Butler expands on his widescreen compositional practice by adding the gargantuan roar of the Melbourne Town Hall Grand Organ to his trademark string orchestra and rock ensemble sound palette. World Forever sees the gorgeous swoon of Butler's 28-piece string section enveloped by the deep foreboding growl of the grand organ, while his immanently tasteful band anchors proceedings with gritty rock textures and distinguished stately poise. The result is a psychedelic journey through rich filmic moods, gothic terror scenes and vivid technicolour beauty, conjuring Butler's most stirring and cinematic work to date. file under: soundtrack / neo-romantic / classical rock
