Sydney’s original party starter has been making us all taste the radness for over a decade. 10 years on and SPOD has taken a turn. To celebrate this mid-life crisis, he’s decided to release an updated version of his (self-described) “2003 classic”, Taste The Radness titled Taste The Sadness.

Out via Rice Is Nice Records, the album explores hitting the second half of your existence in full-stride, dislocating your hip in the process and then spending the rest of your days in an extremely comfortable armchair, check out the first taste of TTS ‘Last Dance’.
