This week I'm joined by New Zealand Film and TV legend Te Kohe (TK) Tuhaka where he takes us through some of the music he listened to growing up. As well as this he talks about a new film he is producing starring actor Guy Pearce, set in 1820s New Zealand. Horowhenua artist Te KuraHuia fresh off the plane also makes an appearance in the studio to talk about her new EP she's released. Whakarongo mai!
Kia ora lovely human beings! 💚 It was a pleasure hosting my first ever morning glory, thank you all for tuning it and to those who are listening back. Today's show is an delicately crafted stew. With some fresh ingredients from Daffodils, among some older family favourites like Animal Collective, Cocteau Twins. All brewed in a beautiful broth with an Alix Perez remix for dessert! ~Eli
