💚 Happy NZ Music Month angels. This week's show sees plenty of new music (unreleased Caru even) and older hidden gems, from Joni Mitchell to Libyanand Nigerian Funk to Dubstep to Shoegaze and all inbetween this show goes deep and wide! We also pay tribute with some listener requests to the late great MC Conrad who sadly passed on Tuesday.
Our Obtuse Track of the Week sees a wobbly Alix Perez number. And Live before the Entertainment Guide picks out a Talking Heads classic.
