"As a massive music lover, I've been to a fair share of music festivals and experienced first-hand barriers faced by people living with a disability in these environments. Ability Fest exists so that anybody, despite their background or disability, can come together and enjoy the music festival experience as a collective community." - Dylan Alcott.
One hundred percent of the proceeds go towards helping young Australians with disabilities.

If you could go on a date with a past historical figure, who would it be? That is the game alt-J were playing when they wrote the single 'Deadcrush'. A track that is breathy and romantically edgy sounding. And the game, a fun one to play when you crack a cold one with mates this afternoon.
Scottish boys Franz Ferdinand have been having a bit of fun the past year. With a rework of 'Glimpse Of Love' off the album 'Always Ascending', there's an extra kick and punch we can get behind that's got everyone dancing out of sync this Friday.
Today we go back to the day where Julian Casablanca of The Strokes could make you question your sexuality in 'You Only Live Once'. The song title itself is a good reminder to do whatever it is you enjoy and make the most of it, which is probably why Julian could rock all white like no other.
