All the way from Naarm (Melbourne, Australia) Jordan from Pinch Points, Miranda from Dr Sure's Unusual Practice, Tom from Gonzo and Dragnet, Amada from Carpet Burn, Gutter Girls plus Chris and Erik from Hobsons Bay Coast Guard. What do you get when you put these people in one practice room? Yes - CHECKPOINT!
Synth-punk-driven garage madness. Solid grit, multiple and good flipping variations. Including crazy-ass funky vibes, and even cadences near Aussie cumbia (if it even exists?) in passages. Exquisite drums, and the synth and keyboards are excellent here. The old lo-fi ’80s tape vibe is well-achieved, and there’s even some nods to the style of Under the Gun associates. Multifaceted, trance-inducing egg-psych almost all the way, especially the track “Circuit Breaker.” Good blasting explosions of Australian garage from a solid super-group delivering new dimensions and sounds. Crunchy, deep-fried, lo-fi feels.perfect!

Made in a leaking studio on the top of a hill with trams running past the window, Beep Beep is a record about embracing the noise of a life full of stories, and unique characters that often become lifelong friends.
Through the humorous honesty of Jasper’s stories comes a sense of community, like you’re not so alone. This is a record that makes you see the funny side of life, about not taking ourselves too seriously and having fun amongst the chaos.
