On today's show I am joined by my pal Bikyu to give a very broad overview of pop music from Taiwan/T-Pop. Bikyu provides some insights as to how the pop music of Taiwan has responded to various sociopolitical climates, diaspora, and indigenous language revitalisation. If you want to delve deeper into Bikyu's selections, they have curated a larger playlist on Spotify here. Bikyu has also provided reading material for some context! Thanks to Living Goodness, The Tuning Fork and Auckland City of Music for supporting Morning Glory <3
New Willy Tea Taylor track, brand newly discovered Olivia Ellen Lloyd, dredging up some BoDeans after hearing it on the soundtrack to The Bear, Magic Factory, Skynyrd and discovering that 'Someday' off Neil Young's Freedom is actually a pretty shit song. Sounds better in my head than on the radio. Townes and Drive By Truckers make up for it though and a killer, KILLER version of Carmelita by Jason Molina.
An instalment of beats, melody and vibe, sourced from around the world and served to create an energy spark. Hosted by DJ Schmutz and NICKYCEE, featuring Sound of Sydney with Carlos Avilés.
