In April 2003 '' Sydney Morning Herald '' John Shand reviewed their performance at The Basement , he found Oxley used " a lot of breath aerating her lovely voice . Unlike , say , Renée Geyer , however , this does not make it husky , but creates a soft-edged , whispering quality , which remains unaffected by volume , and which suggests innocence and sensuality in equal measure " . In October that year ABC Radio National broadcast '' South Island '' on '' The Listening Room '' ; '' South Island '' was a joint project by Oxley ( performer ) with Abrahams ( composer and performer ) and Sherre DeLys ( text and sound design ) . In January 2008 Oxley and Abraham provided " a simply devastating performance of 'Em bedded ' " at a tribute concert for its deceased songwriter , David McComb of The Triffids . A documentary film , '' It 's Raining Pleasure '' ( 2009 ) , showcased the performances and included an interview with Oxley , it was screened at the Adelaide International Film Festival
