The Long Play: Moody Indi Soundtracks

Program Page: The Fill In

Duration: 30min

Tonight on The Long Play we are exploring moody Indi soundtracks. We’re looking at the way film (and television) soundtracks have quietly reshaped Australian listening habits — introducing us to instruments, tonalities and traditions that once felt distant, even unfamiliar. Before streaming platforms and global playlists, many Australians encountered “world music” not in record stores — but in cinemas. Over the next half hour: Greece, Brazil, France, Italy, Sicily, South America — and the sounds that travelled here in the dark
