BAD APPLES MUSIC MARK 10th ANNIVERSARY WITH LIMITED EDITION
VINYL COMPILATION RELEASE
A DECADE OF DEADLY MUSIC CELEBRATED WITH MILESTONE PROJECT
OUT ON AUGUST 28TH
Founded in 2015, BAD APPLES MUSIC has evolved into a record label and cultural incubator of artistic excellence - one of the only labels of it’s kind amplifying emerging and established Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists.
Across the last decade, Bad Apples Music has nurtured and celebrated the careers of artists including BARKAA, Alice Skye, Kobie Dee, Nooky, BIRDZ, Philly and more; while label founder BRIGGS and the wider team have continued to elevate and push Bad Apples Music further into industry spaces that historically would have been closed to them.
“I set out to change the landscape and by that measure we’ve been successful. Never on our own but always at the front. A decade of more than music.” - BRIGGS
To mark the tenth anniversary of Bad Apples Music and the legacy they continue to create, a special limited edition vinyl release has been announced, featuring tracks from BAM artists and bespoke cover art by incredibly talented artists.
The compilation project highlights moments of music heat, delivered by some of Australia’s most important performers.

The record that started it all. Bowraville's best breaks out. A vital release reimagined and repackaged for its 5th anniversary. Draws a line in the sand from where Australian hip-hop was going, and where Tasman headed instead. Still slaps as hard as the day it dropped. We hope you've got good speakers.
Tasman Keith is a proud Gumbaynggirr man, killer rapper and a defining voice in Australian contemporary music. Since releasing Mission Famous five years ago, he's put out a dazzling slew of records that showcase his lyrical dexterity and ability to tackle the issues faced by First Nations peoples head-on. Historically snubbed by the establishment, he's the definition of an underground legend and since Day 1 has been at the very top of our wish list.
Tasman has never pressed anything on vinyl - until now.
Limited to 500 copies in black, grey and purple marble vinyl, with exclusive bespoke artwork from Otis Hope Carey, includes a limited edition print insert, plus an exclusive track 'True Love', and an individually-numbered obi strip.
Only On Impressed.
