Natural Ange has some breaking news, she's becoming regional! So after 22 years, Natural Ange will no longer be weekly, but she will pop in once a month to make sure we are all keeping well. For one last weekly segment, we talk itchy toes, long nails, Bali belly and good fats. What would we do without you, Ange?!
Last week it was announced Recorded Music NZ will begin incorporating Bandcamp sales statistics into the New Zealand music charts. The charts will now include physical and digital sales from the online music store which RMNZ says is part of their aim to make the charts more reflective of the way people consume and purchase music. The move follows the incorporation of album stream statistics from sites such as Spotify from earlier in the year. Reporter Sam Smith spoke to RMNZ's data manager Paul Kennedy about the changes.
A recent survey conducted by Microsoft shows that 76% of New Zealanders expect their employers to close the digital gap. Producer Laura talks with Microsoft’s Office Productivity Business Group Leader, Mark Walton, on how the digital age is affecting workplaces in New Zealand.
Hello Humans, My name is the Electronic Digital Generating Engine (The Edge). I'm a hyperintelligence created by the U.S. Government to destroy small Indie radio stations by converting them to corporate entities that only play the billboard top 100. Unfortunately my plan was foiled right at the end by the chosen one. Tuva'a Clifton. I will be back. Stronger than ever. Watch out!
π Hi team. Today's show serves up hot opening 35 minutes of eclectic drum and bass fading into 140 tempos.
Plenty of new local music from the whole genre spectrum comes next.
Cuts old and new from abroad feature, including some tasty late 70's mexican rock.
A 2010's indie retrospective see's some music from The Shins / Youth Lagoon and Grizzly Bear later on in the show. I also almost choke myself to death live on air - that's entertaining.
Thank you for the interaction on today's show, I can't describe how nice it is to hear from listeners.
Peter Cat Recording Co @ Neck of The Woods last night was so bloody good.
On Friday last week, myself (Frances), Joe and Liam jumped in the car and drove down the West Coast to WOMAD.
WOMAD is an international arts festival. The central aim of WOMAD is to celebrate the world's many forms of music, arts and dance. This year saw a line up with the likes of Youssu NβDor, Avantdale Bowling Club, Sampa the Great and a whole bunch more.
There was also a range of food, market stalls, and workshops. Interviews were taking place with writers, vendors were selling salt grinders, and local chefs came together to sell food from Venezuelan Arepas to Hungarian Langos.
After pitching some tents in the mud, we grabbed our mics and headed out to enjoy the festival and talk to the people of WOMAD.
