Warm Speakers is Patrick Berlinquette, riding in a speeding Charger through the shadow of his brother's plane. Like cartwheeling down a vast corridor, forgetting that at one time all it took to be happy was a swingset and sunshine, green palms and knees; Replaced, all that, with sighing in traffic, medication commercials, long lines, tired quiet trains.

Hazards Of Swimming Naked are an instrumental group originating from Far North Queensland (Innisfail/Johnstone Shire).
Their music is a reflection of their surrounding environment and isolated townships and of the imposition of society on this environment and the way people interact with it. This sound has drifted over the years from dense terrorscapes to late night grooves to dreamy, serendipitous currents and paranoid messes.
