Fantasies
In suburban Toronto, there's a wonderfully fruitful group of friends. From their collective talent has sprung Broken Social Scene and its offshoots (KC Accidental, Kevin Drew, Brendan Canning) and Stars, among others. Their lineage follows two streams: the warped-universe dream rock (Broken Social Scene) and the sharp, hella-produced emotional electro (Stars).

About
FiveThousand is a subcultural guide to Adelaide, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Adelaide writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FiveThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
