'Wax Audio, otherwise know as Tom Compagnoni, began cutting, pasting, mixing, mashing and producing digital audio ditties for the online world back in 2003 at his home studio in Sydney, Australia.
'As the drums of war began beating in a global media hell bent on destruction in Iraq, Tom produced Wax Audio's first pointedly political online audio presentation - WMD ...And Other Distractions. With this release, Wax Audio reached its target audience of Australian underground and grass roots media, quickly making itself heard on community airwaves across the country.
'With the re-election of George W Bush in the US and John Howard in Australia during 2004, Wax Audio returned with an even denser, bleaker and more intense work Mediacracy. The EP closed with the now well known George W Bush rendition of John Lennon's Imagine - Imagine This. The track became an overnight media phenomenon, requested heavily on national radio stations around the world and even making it into BBC 1's Festive 50 list for 2005. A 7" vinyl release of the track on Metal Postcard Records saw the track played out to festival crowds whilst also being used as chin-stroking discussion fodder at universities.' (Wax Audio website).
