The Perfect Team
[this was the default heading in the website template and we didn't have the heart to change it]
STAFF - In Order of Employ (except stepH)
Barney and/or Kato
Crate digger in residence. Rest assured that any second-hand crate, shelf or rack in the store has every record in its place, thanks to this guy: who can smell an inside, b-side Craig David remix from 20 paces.
Rose Byrne
Daughter of David Byrne (we’re not kidding). ex-rookie, Junglista, Bar Tender. Video Editor Extraordinaire.
Reenie.jpg
Hurricane with friends who have questionable understanding of witticisms. Excellent to have onside at music trivia, and can’t stand truffles.
Rubidium Rose-Stephenson
A rare earth mineral from a parallel dimension where time operates more slowly. Composition: 50% coffee, 50% chill.
Neo-Aha Pleshet
Fast-learning tech-head, professoinal Donnie Wahlberg impersonator. Able to locate glitches in the store Matrix at 50 paces, blindfolded.
DJ Nick Toth
Meastro educator on the wheels of steel. Head of mixology curriculum at the Recordstore.
Steph - aka pH
This guy! One time DJ. Knows nothing, mops floors. May have remixed the Blade Runner 2049 soundtrack.
OTHER RANDOMS & EX’s
Maia Bilyk - Machine Emeritus
Empowerer of women, post emplyee key-retainer, unit.
Ben Fester - Vinyl Junkie
This guy can actually subsist off vinyl. Ben, who when he's not mixing up a storm or being out 'n stuff, is bringing his vast musical knowledge to bear on our order sheets!
Lexy Halpin
We are moooved to announce the addition the species Lexonimus Halpinerus to our fold.
Adi Toohey - FBi radio host & funk-doobiest DJ about.
The antidote to dudey record store culture. Our resident 'newbie' knows her way around the turntables and broadcasts weekly on local radio station FBi. Adi also has a most eclectic taste and never plays the same record in a row in-store (which can't be said for the guy below)
Ritual aka Lef - Saturday Guy Emeritus
The elder statesman of the store who, now gainfully employed during the week, still has keys, but never uses them. Classically trained in Mix-ology, Produce-ology, Jazz-ology, Guitar-ology, Wine-ology and both taking and giving great advice ;)
The Right Hon. Rev Dr Groove Shoes
This is pH's not-silent-enough partner. Also known for genetically enhanced financial backing, organic eggs and his ability not to do anything during stock take.
The Electrician - Emeritus
Nuff Said! On Sabbatical getting us tickets for Melbourne gigs.
J Mez - Designer Extraordinaire
Our erstwhile Mixologist, Designer and leaving of crumbs on the counter. As you can see, he has started brain-washing his daughter from a very young age.
Morphingaz - Past School Master.
Teacher of the skillz, illuminator of the dark, beat master with more fingers than meet the eye. Yes, we do lessons!
The Supa-Triviator
The man about town with the subs! For real, this guy knows more people than actually exist. And Euan is actual proof that you don't need to work here to work here. And he like pink flags .. and Champain Lyf.
Thomas Gillman - Circuitry Man
The newest edition to our team, was in the right time (on the decks mixing a sub FM show) at the right time (as Steph said: 'do you guys know any one good with electronics') and the rest is history. Mr Gillman here is the talented and fastidious fixer-upperer of decks! We have the gear (out the back) and he knows how to use it.
Josh Panakera Molony.
Back-up Dancer & Ableton Whiz.
Tia Newling
And now our FBi collection is complete: staff, DJs and (ex) producers all accounted for. Welcome Noob.
