Welcome to your new weekend listening! Broadcasting legend Karyn Hay is on your Saturday airwaves, bringing you three hours of tunes and chats. Castor is the student that becomes the teacher on Lecture Me, telling us about his recent lecture on primitive accumulation. Stella Huggins is in for an explanation of the environmental impacts of AI on Implausible Deniability. Finn Johansson is our resident empath, giving the listenership advice and validation on Dear Finn. Listen back to the first show of many.
Finn Johansson gives us a potted musical history of Karl Sölve Steven before unveiling the finished demo next week, with the prompt being “BPM”. Tracks from The Drab Doo-Riffs, Supergroove, Queen Neptune and one from Karl’s highly successful movie soundtrack work.
Karyn talks with author Richard Langston about his new biography on the band that helped launch the Dunedin Sound – “The Clean: In The Dreamlife You Need A Rubber Soul”. Richard’s in the middle of a short book tour which comes to Auckland Wednesday 15th April at Flying Nun Records. (spoiler alert: Clean live music included!)
Finn Johansson teamed up with rapper jackaltheblackal who chose the prompt “Is this thing live?”. Jack’s lyrics are a thing to behold, including a nod to the band Dragon on the demo “Miles Teller Wine Cellar”.
Leith Towers from Ringlets doesn’t let a bloody nose deter him from telling Karyn about the Ringlets all-ages fundraiser gig at the Tuning Fork on Saturday April 11th –– proceeds to help the band get to Europe and the UK to play a series of dates including The Great Escape Festival in Brighton in May.
Finn Johansson muses whether to call him "Mr blackal" or just “jackal" as he prepares to go into the studio with Auckland rapper jackaltheblackal. Finn hasn’t had a hip hop Demo God before so he’s looking forward to the challenge!
Finn Johansson teamed up with lead singer and songwriter Jade Lewis and bassist Hon Manawangphiphat from Club Ruby and (we knew it was going to happen!) rolled the dice and got the prompt “Have Fun!”. Listen to the track here. It’s as f f f f funny as f f f f.
