#57: Magic Happens Presents - SPLENDURRRRRRRRR
"On the flight to Splendour I realised I'd left me bloody rule book in Sydney, so had to create this mix without it. In the words of @radger (RT'd by @MattVanSchie) there is a "refreshing absence of a rulebook". This ties in with my latest effort to live my life without a copy of the rulebook constantly in my top pocket, as I have done previously. My top pocket, along with my outlook, is now lighter.
ALL HITS NO MISSUS / THIS IS LIVIN'."
Get experienced with Magic Happens this weekend starting with 2.00-4.15PM at the Ibeefa stage on Friday, and 5:30-7:00PM at Happy Endings on Saturday.

#56: Graz - Live From Splendour in the Grass 2010 Splendour Mix
By some kind of miracle, Graz has peered into the future and it sounds bloody great. By means of which we can't delve into here, Graz has supplied us with his Splendour in the Grass set - before even arriving on site.
And if that's not mind-blowing enough you best hold onto something when you read this next part: the very same gentleman responsible for this Modcast has told us to pass on to you, the omnipresent listener, to "get excited cuz I wont even play this shit".
Van She Tech - the Boys Are Back + a New Single Surprise
From Queen to Wham!, Duran Duran to Ce Ce Peniston, Van She Tech have put together an amazing DJ set for this year's Splendour In The grass, full of all original dance music and bootleg bangers made in between writing their sophomore album.
While busy in the studio writing the rest of their second Van She full length, Nicky and Michael have informed us that they have made some special bootlegs which they will be giving away via Van She's Twitter page over the coming weeks. Word on the street is that VST will drop one of the singles from album number two during one of their Splendour sets - YES!
Video: Soundcheck With Tame Impala
Fader TV may not have had the best seat in the house during one of Tame Impala's NYC performances, but they did catch their soundcheck beforehand.
