Talkshow Boy (Adrian Trajstman, born 24 January 1985) is a pop/lo-fi/punk/rave/experimental/horror/romance/drama/comedy/erotic/etc artist/writer/producer/whatever from Melbourne/Naarm, Australia who enjoys and struggles working with fact and fiction, mundane reality and wild fantasy, life and dreams. Trajstman has been involved with an eclectic assortment of bands over the last 20 years and has previously released work as Talkshow Boy through labels such as Pocketclock, Crackmonkey, Autumn Sounds and Shatterfoil Industries as well as (ir)regularly releasing work under a variety of pseudonyms through their own online "not-label" Melbourne Dance Music Association (
ilovemdma.com).
Predating the debut Talkshow Boy album "Perestroika Love", "Inkyfight" is one of the earliest (if not THE earliest) Talkshow Boy tracks Trajstman ever recorded. It was produced in the year 2000 using ModPlug Tracker, Windows Sound Recorder, a cheap electric guitar, a second-hand belt-drive turntable and a worn copy of "It's Your Thing" b/w "Don't Give It Away" by the Isley Brothers on 7" vinyl (released 1969 thru Buddah Records). "Inkyfight" was rediscovered in late 2022 during one of Trajstman's countless attempts to finally "get organiz-ized".
Lyrics:
I love my cave
I fucking love my cave
Leave it all to the dead of night
Settle it all in an inkyfight
