Markus Schulz starts us off! We’ve survived Frances and Markus has gotten some much-needed rest. Now revived and refreshed, he has headed back in the studio with renewed enthusiasm and inspiration and has given us two amazing hours. Be sure to tune in for some fantastic new tunes and phenomenal mixes.

Infusion joins the Broadcast! Just as Aussie acts have almost single-handedly proven that there’s life in the rotten corpse of rock’n’roll yet, fellow antipodeans Infusion are here to put to rest any discussion of electronic music’s imminent demise. Take a listen to the group’s upcoming second album, or witness one of their dynamic live shows, and you’ll agree that reports of dance music’s death have been greatly exaggerated.

On the other hand, reports of Infusion’s excellence are anything but inaccurate. While the music press has been generous in its praise of the Wollongong-bred trio (comprising Frank Xavier, Manuel Sharrad and Jamie Stevens), it certainly hasn’t indulged in flights of hype fancy. With Infusion, there’s no need for hyperbole. Stating a widely-held belief, premier Sydney newspaper The Sydney Morning Herald described Infusion as “Australia’s best live act†(NB: no qualification of ‘best live dance act’ - just “Australia’s best live actâ€, full stop). Offshore, Muzik Magazine labelled the band “a force to be reckoned withâ€, and Mixmag portrayed Infusion as “exciting, and funky as f**k.â€

“Exciting†really is the word when it comes to summing up Infusion’s live gigs. With a solid pedigree in live performance, these guys consistently deliver the goods onstage. Why else would they be perennial faves for major domestic festivals like Big Day Out and Splendour in the Grass? How else could they pull off the coup of being booked for such prestigious international outings as this year’s Roskilde Festival (where they’ll be the only Australian act on the bill) and Creamfields UK, or Glastonbury 2004 (where they performed twice)? Then, there are the recent slots at Creamfields in Argentina, guest gigs at top UK clubs including Renaissance and Fabric, and a relentless touring schedule that sees the trio regularly tripping through Europe, the US and Asia.

The first single from their impending, second LP, Girls Can Be Cruel (the equally rockin’, angst-ridden antithesis to Are You Gonna Be My Girl? from fellow “so-hot-right-now†Melbourne band, Jet) blew up across the airwaves and – lauded by the superstar DJ élite – did damage to dance floors globally.

And this is only the beginning.

With the release of their first major label LP (due out in 2005), backed by a relentless, no-sleep-‘til-stardom touring schedule, Infusion are set to cause seismic activity on a transcontinental scale. Forget backward-looking, Xerox rock and by-the-1800-numbers pre-fab pop – the 21st Century belongs to Infusion.
