Artists in the Medium – A Short History 1968–2020.
Blind Mango Chutney gets his groove on once again with Brazilian feels, 70s jazz funk and the debut of Auckland drummer Taylor Griffin (Thu 29, Ponsonby Social Club). And live in the studio Tim Stewart (Love Square) performs with his new band Codes (Karen Hu, Loxmyn Ness, Sean Martin-Buss) ahead of their Pride Festival gig also on Thursday 29th at the Wine Cellar, K Rd. It’s a history lesson in queer jazz plus post-punk funk all in one!
When was the last time this dirty tuneage took a bath?!!! Eye singingly disgusting tunes like a puddle of unidentifiable stinking offal your dogs about to roll in before you get back in the car on a hot summers day. Actual, literal, audible tripe. Ewwww gets you through.
Marie Shannon joined Theo in the first half of this Sunday's show to discuss sleeping near the river, Marie's exhibition at Sarjeant Gallery in Whanganui. Later on, Orissa Keane came on to talk about Vernacular, a writing platform Orissa is currently funding via a Boosted campaign.
Today on your bFM Breakfast: It's Friday today, and Mike battles to get a long as Wake Up Call; we're all about musical indulgence this morning; we've got an emotional track; a new track from the Foals and a couple of favourites to take you through to Laneway on Monday. You're welcome.
💚 Kia ora wonderful humans (and robots). Slip inside a genre-free three hours of fun. Eli takes you through some older Sonic Youth, Cymande, and The Masqueraders cuts. Some slightly brave cuts from Jackie McLean, Michael Carvin make their way in. And we have you covered on the electronica front as always with Cesco, Ozwald and Kaval giving you more percussion than you can shake ya little fists at. Apologies for being a bit slow on this bCast. As always we have the weekly spotify playlist updated too. Sending all the love and see you same time next week! 💚
💚 A relaxed show to celebrate the sunshine. 30 or so minutes of liquid drum and bass tossed in there for good measure around 1hr 30.
