180 Grams: the stories behind remarkable albums.
180 Grams? The weight of a collector's edition vinyl record.
We'll take you right into the process of albums you love, as told by the key players.
The studio bickering, main stage triumphs, tense late night phone calls and sold out launches.
It's an Access All Areas listening experience that pulls apart how records are conceived, born and grow up in public, from the early demos to the risky creative decisions right up to the finished product.
You'll hear fresh stories from the bands, managers, label big wigs and small wigs, booking agents, icons, all eager to talk about their part in a modern classic.
180 Grams will help you hear albums in a new light, beamed into your brain from a different angle with a deeper perspective and juicy, often spicy insights.

An international record producer arrives in Warrandyte and they try to start work but things quickly fall apart; band dynamics, equipment and timeline.
The process is much less like their first album.
They’ve only got 3 weeks, while producer Paul Butler is in Melbourne, to record all the parts.
The band have been so busy in the lead up and they’re not ready when they start.

They release Half Mile Harvest(debut studio album), get some industry attention, sign management and navigate intense label interest as they prepare to record album number two.
Charismatic Englishman Paul Butler is recruited to produce what will become Run Home Slow.
"My first thought was, wow, what a voice what a band. What a groove. I bet they can't do it live" - Jeremy Furze, manager of The Teskey Brothers, after hearing Half Mile Harvest, the first album by The Teskey Brothers.
