Like lamingtons, meat pies and cold beer, there's nothing more quintessentially Aussie than hosting a BBQ on Australia Day, basking in the sun and tuning into the Triple J Hottest 100 to countdown the best music of the past year. If you haven't yet cast your vote for your favourite 10 tracks of 2011, you'd better get over here and get cracking, because at the time of writing there is just over nine hours left to go before the poll closes!
To get you amped and ready for the countdown, Triple J have gathered a series of top tens from various industry heads. Here's what the lads from The Aston Shuffle chose:
Clubfeet - Edge of Extremes
Yuksek - On A Train
M83 - Midnight City
Bumblebeez - Summer Bum
Calvin Harris - Bounce
Joe Goddard feat. Valentina - Gabriel
Lykke Li - I Follow Rivers
Metronomy - The Look
So if your plan on Australia Day is to tune into the Hottest 100 live broadcast (which is cool), it does mean that you missed out on tickets to Agwa Yacht Club 012 featuring Matthew Dear & Pete Herbert. Thankfully there are still tickets left to Agwa Yacht Club 013 with Lee Burridge and Greg Wilson, though you'd do best to hurry and grab a ticket here, as they are now on final release.
