First Pressing

Presented by: Mark Neal

Unique and valuable, first pressings are vinyl records highly sought amongst music buffs for their distinctive sound.

Perth’s local music scene is similarly unique, with grass-roots record labels making their mark on our State’s sonic landscape.

Join local musician and label head Mark Neal as he sits down with WA record labels championing their own unique sound on RTRFMs new podcast series First Pressing.

From punk, indie-rock and experimental, hear stories from the unheard visionaries shaping the local music scene and the wonderful communities they nurture.
