ABOUT PBS 106.7 FM
For over 25 years, PBS-FM has been a beacon of independent, freeform, passionate, real and unpretentious radio. PBS is a champion of specialist and under-represented music and is proudly non-corporate, anti-fashion and wanker-free.
PBS FM is one of Australia’s largest community radio stations/websites whose charter is to represent under-represented music. We cover every imaginable genre of music, from hip hop to electronica, hardcore, punk, grind, metal, blues, roots, jazz, world, indie, country, rockabilly to dub, reggae and more!
PBS announcers are music-loving folks who volunteer their energy, musical knowledge and vast record collections to prepare in-depth, specialist, music-freak programs. From our humble inner-city studios, with a small core of staff and an army of dedicated volunteers, we broadcast 24 hours a day to the wider metropolitan area of Melbourne and beyond, and stream live to the world here on the web. Every PBS announcer has total and utter autonomy over what they play. Their programs are a reflection of their own evolving musical tastes, enthusiasms and discoveries - a musical journey which is shared with you, the music-loving listener.
It is our hope that PBS is a joyous, adventurous and educational experience that turns you on to music that's eternally cool, and provides a real alternative to manufactured notions of what's "hip" in the increasingly corporate musical mainstream. PBS 106.7FM doesn’t play hits... we make hits. Tune in and you will no doubt here tracks long before they are played on commercial stations. Underground will live forever!
Finally, you can help PBS-FM and the community by spreading the word. Help save your friends from a world of high repetition commercial radio and introduce them to a true alternative. They will discover a music scene they never new existed.

Roll up roll up, Vultures of Venus are back in town you funky disco cats. And guess what? ... their self-titled debut LP is finally here! Ten tracks of unadulterated Glampunk Electro madness! It’s unleashed on Thursday 29th of October at Bar Open on Brunswick St. It’s Bowie on steroids; it’s Marquis de Sade and Andy Warhol screaming at the moon through a home-made vocoder. The Lollyshop is open for business ! It’s going to be a huge night filled with bubble machines, strobes, psychedelic video projections and cautionary tales to tell your grandchildren. It will also feature live performances from those vixens of burlesque “the Venus Man Traps”. Support on the night comes from psych-popsters Go-Go Sapien serving up synth-infected garage with lashings of ravenous big sexy guitars. Make sure you get down early to catch the debut performance by newcomers Tusk. And most importantly we have kept the entry fee down to a very affordable – FREE ! Copies of Vultures of Venus’s LP can be scoped up for a low $10 on the night. Yee-Har space cadets !
