The ABC has been synonymous with youth radio in Australia for 40 years. Four entire decades – can you believe that? In 1975, the budding Double Jay launched on the Sydney airwaves, later expanding into the national triple j station.
Since then, triple j has been at the forefront of music Down Under, helping to give countless Aussie artists their start, and reflecting what was going on in the wider world of music at any given moment.
Now, triple j has released a four-CD compilation called 40 Years Of Music, squeezing in as many influential tunes as possible from the entirety of its broadcasting history – Joy Division to Midnight Oil and Paul Kelly; Pixies and Powderfinger to The Prodigy; Sarah Blasko to Lorde. We’ve got five copies of the album to give away, and you can enter the draw below.
