Every episode spotlights new local bands, fresh tracks, live shows, and the creative voices shaping the sound of your town.

In this episode we chat about the TripleJ Hottest 100, including our picks and why we picked them, then we catch up with Nur Azman, co-owner of Chop Street Music Productions and Regional Program Officer with WAM (Western Australia Music).
Nur began her journey in the music industry after completing a Music Business course at TAFE, followed by an internship with WAM’s regional team in 2021. An avid live music fan, she started by organising launch shows for local bands at venues across Perth and Fremantle. Since then, she has co-founded Chop Street Music, a Mandurah-based music business dedicated to supporting and growing the live music scene in the Peel region. Over the past four years, Nur has worked with WAM, contributing to key events such as WAMCon, The WAMAwards, The Regional Roundtable, Song of the Year and WAMFest.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
