It's a long weekend and we have all kinds of impressive guests in town and we have two of them on the show. Joining regular hosts @soul_scourer and @KirkJames13 is Tairāwhiti's Cass AKA Cassawarrior, whose mix today traverses Nigeria, Ghana, Congo, French Guiana, Benin, with an eye-wateringly deep and grooving mix. In the final hour, latest official member of the Swap Meet crew is Campbell Ngata, who delivers a mix across all the medically recognised musical erogenous zones: boogie, disco, and soul!
