Friends of Oh Mercy! Records: Sideways Through Sound Radio Show

We recently caught up with Mark Ward who presents the 'Sideways Through Sound' Radio show out in Sydney Australia. This award winning show can be heard every Wednesday 8-10pm Sydney on 2ser 107.3, 2ser Digital, and Every Friday 10-11pm across Australia on the Community Radio Network.

Hi Mark, can you tell us a bit about yourself and how Sideways Through Sound came into existence?

Sideways Through Sound started in 2007 when I relocated form Manchester to Sydney. Having been involved in music one way or another for as long as I can remember in my hometown, I knew I wanted to do something here in Australia but didn't know what. The Community Radio sector is vibrant and well respected here and is a wonderful forum for anyone interested in creating arts and culture as a viable alternative to commercial media.

When you're choosing music to feature on your show what is the criteria you're looking for?

Sideways Through Sound over the years has become it's own entity and as a result caters for music that fits it's own criteria. Of course I'm the guide and if it resonates with me then I hope it will do the same with the listeners. Psych Folk Drone and all variables within that...

What's the local music scene like in your area, any local bands you want to mention who are doing great things?

Coming to Australia and knowing nothing was a challenge. Opening up the weekly street press and not knowing bands, venues or even where anything was made discovery quite fun... it didn't take long to settle on a handful of venues doing good things and the groups and scenes that were circling around them. A lot has changed in Sydney in the last 5 years and the live scene is still very healthy (I'm off out tonight in fact to see Flyying Colours fro Melbourne)... local bands worth checking out: Raindrop, The Walking Who, Hailer and so much more... Melbourne's rockin' too !!

Are you an old school music consumer, i.e. CDs and Vinyl or would you say you've fully absorbed the digital music world?

I started spending all the money I had (not much) on records in 1978 and haven't stopped since... I still buy CD's (not that many) and occasionally (very) but digital only tunes... I never stopped buying vinyl but I think it's an 'And / And' kinda situation...

If any band are reading this and what to get there music to you how should they get in touch?

Send me an email at [email protected], I always reply :) X
