Ahead of a huge launch show at The Curtin on Friday October 10, Francis, Issy and Ryan from local alt-country band Quality Used Cars caught up with Jordan on Underground Love PBS, and performed a song live in the studio.

The band just released their third LP One Hundred Million through Spoilsport Records, tackling lyrical songwriting with a sense of being down on your luck, an injection of humour, and also a gratefulness to life despite the hardships.

The monthly rotating program Test Pressing returns throughout October with announcer Imogen Hanrahan (pictured) and her four-week program Organoid.

Organoid is a look into the intersection of classical and electronic music, of organic meeting the synthesised, of traditions being continued by adaptation. This is a short study of the artists, genres, formats, and instruments that bring siloed/gatekept music to the people.

Tune in to the first of four editions of Organoid tonight, Tuesday October 7 from 7pm, or listen back here: pbsfm.org.au/program/test-pressing/2025-10-07/19-00-00
