Nice to watch.
Good old times - good old music.

I especially like the part where they explain where the (in)famous "Orch 2" sample came from (from 11:11 min onwards). That sample was used in every friggin' song in the 80's in my memory, ha ha. Wonder who used it first... Was there somebody before Afrika Bambaataa with "Planet Rock" (1982)?

As an Aussie, I liked when they said "one of the greatest Australian inventions of all time". Other Australian inventions - Wi-Fi, Black box flight recorder, ultrasound, pacemaker, medical application of penicillin, bionic ear, Google Maps, electric drill...

and they invented (very likely) the living caught traps for cangaroos
I guess they did - to be honest, like always, I do have no clues at all.
