The Slip Slop Slap skin cancer awareness campaign from the early 1980s and Robyn Archer’s Menstruation Blues – a five-minute musical tirade from the same decade – are among 11 soundtracks that have been added to the National Film and Sound Archive’s Sounds of Australia registry for 2023.
Updated each year, the list draws on the past 96 years of sound recording, capturing popular and symphonic music, advertising themes, spoken word and radio broadcasts deemed of cultural and historical significance, and at least 10 years old.
