One of our main blog contributors for Germinal Press, Chris Familton is a freelance music journalist based in Sydney, who has grown up obsessing over music and its place in pop culture.

He has nostalgic memories of laying on the floor next to the speakers of his dad's stereo soaking up the mysterious sounds. For Chris, music is an all-consuming passion and he is still lounging next to his speakers trying to make sense of it all.

He currently contributes to a range of music staples, including Drum Media and FasterLouder, and has had work published in Australia, Ireland and New Zealand.

He makes a point of telling people he has interviewed members of The Velvet Underground, The Stooges, Radiohead, Buzzcocks and Wilco.
