indie pop punk soundtrack
blakhatz are: Guru Greg, Diamond Jem, Doctor Mark Guru Greg emerged from Brisbane after a mis-spent childhood on stage and television. His sax and guitar brought him to the Emerald City where he based himself to ply his wares, like the other blakhatz, in the musical caves of Australia. He has written and produced music for video (remember that?) and TV. His current line in dubious horoscopes and slightly more reputable(?) horse racing hints are mere tips to his iceberg. Diamond Jem’s drums have graced a wide variety of musical modes. He has also flexed his musical muscles in soundtrack and production work not the least with that unique Australian talent Mic Conway both in and out of the National Junk Band. Those masters of musical mayhem prefer a vaudeville, jug band approach. With blakhatz, however harmonies and humour are built on a rock foundation with occasional country twinges (ouch!). Doctor Mark hails from England via the deep South (Melbourne) and has provided, on bass, the solid foundation and sweet harmonies of many a band from Cybotron (when poly was a parrot and all synths were mono) to the Fabs.
