💚 Hello beautiful humans, step inside as Eli hurls you into the genre washing machine for 3 hours. Thank you as always for checking in with the show. More indie/alternative flavours with a tendancy for the 2000-2015 period on this show, slightly less electronica.. for now. 💚 A few technical hiccups and sloppyness, so thank you for bareing with that :) See you next week.
💚 Kia ora gorgeous humans. Step inside three hours of all the flavours, fast and slow, hard and soft, unplugged and very plugged - old, new, retro, cool, and everything in between. If you're wanting to get your feet tapping you can skip straight to the final hour. As always see you same time next week. Thank you for tuning in at anypoint during todays show, it was incredibly fun and thank you to those of you who called or texted in, really feeling the love on a of a dark day.
Also if you're wanting something to do tomorrow, myself and some other amazing bFM dj's are rolling out at shadows bar from 5-10pm tomorrow night (Friday 21st July, 2023)
💚 Thank you for tuning in wonderful humans, 3 hours of genre free tunes. We start off slow, have some time for reflection (for Matariki) ~1hr 40 minutes in and then put the foot on the gas for the final hour. See you all next week and have a beautiful Matariki, sending lots of love 💚
💚 A three hour trip around the genre mill. Quiet stuff, dubby stuff, faster stuff, sad stuff, happy stuff, Robert Pattinson.

Campbell digs Japan, and he's just back from a ten day jaunt of well curated record stores, incredible food and many greetings of "Arigato gozaimasu!"
His set this month is full of raw, soulful heaters and cosmic jazz-funk that makes you screw your face up like you accidentally ate the ball of wasabi along with your sashimi. All time Swap Meet fave Garfield Fleming’s 'Don’t Send Me Away' still hits like heartbreak on vinyl, that pleading vocal over lush orchestration is pure modern soul gold. And then there’s Mystic Harmony’s Lovers Rock take on The Jones Girls' 'Nights Over Egypt' deep, spiritual, and epic. Add Freedom Suite 'Come Closer' to that category: a rare groove Trini disco dub with the kind of bassline that makes you look around the room for someone else who heard that. The funkier edges really pop off with Wild Fire 'The Dealer' another Trinidadian gem that’s psych-funk with fuzz guitar and heavy attitude.
Campbell keeps it moving with the glistening disco of Chantal Curtis ‘Get Another Love’ to Booker Newberry III’s ‘Love Town’, there’s that roller-skate-ready shimmer. Then off to Brasil with Alma Brasileira ‘Peixeiro’ a choro inflected samba and Dom Salvador’s ‘Barumba’, all syncopated rhythms and raw, earthy joy. On the modern tip, Cool Affair ‘Motoric Patterns (Kaidi Tatham Mix)’ slides in with some proper bruk energy: Kaidi doing what he does best. Mr Ngata has the jazzheads covered too - and we also gotta keep pumping current faves The Circling Sun!
John Key’s resignation means big changes for the whole of New Zealand as we wait to find out who will be our new Prime Minister, and who will lead National into the next election. But we can’t forget how John Key’s been elected into parliament for the last 14 years - the people of Helensville. Key has said he’ll continue as Helensville's MP so as to not trigger a by-election. But he won't be contesting the seat next year.
John Key’s been called the ‘everyman and nowhere man’ of the electorate, which is centered around the town of Helensville northwest of Auckland. But he’s always been popular, winning about 60-75% of the vote over the last 3 elections. So what’s going to happen to the contest for Helensville, now that it’s no longer a cut-and-dry Key victory?
95bFM reporter Daniel Walker speaks to Labour Party secretary general Andrew Kirton.
Remember remember the fourth of December, because that day we had a fun-as show. Hannah Valentine joined us for the first half, a discussed her sculptural practice, that is open to interaction from the audience. You can find Valentine's "Grips, slips, of space, a memory" at Te Tuhi Gallery in Pakuranga. Described as a feminist primal-rock-band-slash-art-collective, our next guests Fantasing were in town on a residency at Audio Foundation. We enjoyed the chance to break down the group dynamics, and heard some of the diverse influences that seep into their tunes (think 70s country, bacon, Greek prog-rock, NZ's regional mounds, friendship).
