This edition of Swap Meet on 95bFM sees Oogun of Drunk Elephant Sound take the controls again.
We have to kick off with Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 (as he's just announched a show 30 May at the Auckland Town Hall), celebrate 40 years of Anita Baker's Rapture LP. From there the show journeys through Hammond organ jazz courtesy of Jimmy Smith & Wes Montgomery, the irresistible samba groove of birthday boy Jorge Ben, Zanzibari taarab rhythms from Rashid Makame, and the hypnotic desert blues of DJ Bamanan. Rail Band and Orchestra OK Jazz bring the golden age of Malian and Congolese rumba into the mix, while Ebo Taylor and the Souljazz Orchestra represent the broader Pan-African sweep that runs through the whole set.
Oogun also brings original productions - "Version for Version" and "Deep Architecture" teaming with OSC alias sitting alongside dub selections from Mungo's Hifi, Matty G and Jaffa Sound that give the show its NuZillund reggae tip. We spin Gang Starr to salute Preem's birthday, Ethiopian jazz textures arrive via Zena's "Kazanchis" (Brownswood) and AHC's "Push Me Pull You," and the cosmic soul of Nona Hendryx and Azimuth round things out. Press the button.

Flo's return to the Hard, Fast and Heavy Show after a couple of absent months, brings an eclectic and erratic mix of genres, played in no particular order this time round. Celebrating the best of metalcore, post-hardcore, nu-metal and post punk, this rendition has something for everyone!
A particular focus on two local legends that have disbanded, metalcore band Grym Rhymney and emo pop-punk group Melanie, leaving the Tāmaki Makaurau scene grief-stricken.
