Edit history

In the early 80's, Australian studio artist Jay Moxham created a collection of catchy, quirky Pop songs that, despite a lot of interest from industry people, were never signed and never released, until now. The Crazoids is a Pop vehicle for all the social comment and vaudevillian songs written from 1980 to 1983 by Jay before he embarked on his 14 year ambient music journey. All of the songs on the Real World album run like a social commentary about living right in the middle of the millennial shift at the end of the twentieth century. They are snapshots of different aspects of modern 80's life looked at with a sense of fun, humour and irony. Yes, these are the original demo tracks recorded in his analogue 8-track studio that he built with Paul Dengate in their lounge room in 1980, and they are far from perfect, but with a bit of digital cleaning up they are being presented here, more in an historical context, with such a great opportunity to be heard and shared on Triple J
