“Synth melodies that riddle amongst its funk grooves and hook-y choruses plucked straight out of an old-school electro-pop delight only brought forward into the future”. – Pilerats (AUS)
“Huge feel good pop vibes. I’ve transported back to a dancefloor circa 2010 and this is getting dropped between La Roux, Ou Est Le Swimming Pool, and Art vs Science”. – Gemma Pike – triple j (AUS)
“Absolute banger, I LOVE this!”. – Alex Baker – Kerrang Radio (UK)

MOBS, the nostalgic pop band from Melbourne has unveiled details on their forthcoming album, ‘Cinema Paradiso’, which will be released February 28 through Rude Records. The band also has released a new single and visual for the song “School’s Out”.
Drawing inspiration from both the musical and cinematic era of the 1980’s, MOBS have spent a lot of time crafting their niche sound. Mixing old: Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Billy Ocean, Tears for Fears; with new: COIN, LANY, LAUV, The 1975, M83. Writing songs from the perspective of main characters in specific classic 80’s films is just one of the ways the band intend to stand out, bringing another dimension to their story. “We have always been a huge fan of the 80’s era musically and cinematically” says drummer Matt Purcell, “To gel these two concepts together we believe it represents our vision within the band”.
“School’s Out” was inspired by the classic 80’s film Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Previous songs released include ‘Big World’, which was inspired from the film Honey, I Shrunk The Kids, ‘Find Another You’ from the film She’s All That and “I’ll Be Back’ from The Terminator.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
