DYT Show 290 ‘3MDR is Radioactive’ Radiothon 2026 - Originally Aired 01/10/2026

Welcome to Do Your Thing’s second Radiothon special for 2026. Radiothon is 3MDR’s annual membership/subscriber and donation drive running from 7th September to 4th October. The theme this year is ‘3MDR is Radioactive’.

Subscribe to Do Your Thing at 3mdr.com (link in bio).

Amongst the quiet foothills of the Dandenong Ranges, the soaking rain pitter patters on the old corrugated iron roof of the 3MDR Forest Park Homestead, creating a focused space for appreciating a collection atmospheric, percussive and avant-leaning soundscapes. Later in the show, we will be joined by talented local artist Great Earthquake for a chat about his meditative new album ‘Vibrant Noise’ and the world of Great Earthquake, as well as spinning a collection of tunes.

Listen back on-demand anytime at 3mdr.com. See last image for playlist or head to 3mdr.com. Links in bio.

Great Earthquake is back with a fresh approach on Vibrant Noise. Made up of wild driving beats, post-punk bass lines, floating keys, and sparse reverb drenched vocals, this album was made without guitar to shift the focus on album number eight.

Autobio is a deeply personal, 12-track album (36 minutes) recorded and mixed at home in Melbourne by Noah Symons of Great Earthquake and mastered by the one and only Mikey Young.

Delivered in a mostly post-punk quality, Noah shares his troubled childhood, Intense religious upbringing, pure love for sport, discovering music, navigating Adolescence, and so much more. From playing Robin Hood, enduring home Schooling, his parents’ separation, love of Aussie rules, to winning a cricket Banner competition at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, this nostalgic reflection is Both revealing and emotional.

The first single 3. Chopsticks is about a teddy bear which, was given to Noah at Birth and speaks about the attachment to it and its longevity. It’s a minimal dub Bass and drum freak out with deep spoken vocals.

Autobio is the first to be released album by Tempo Music Records and the Seventh full length from Great Earthquake in the unique fashion of a physical Zine, which includes a digital download of the
album via Bandcamp.
