James from Half Hexagon joins Rosetta for a kōrero about the re-release of Half Hexagon's two EPs on vinyl! The new wax is available for pre-order now, and each 12-inch vinyl will include a bonus-track. Whakarongo mai nei!
In recently released research from the Child Poverty Action Group, the research shows low-income families below the Income Floor are struggling to pay for bare essentials.
Below the Income Floor refers to the minimum income needed to live and belong.
News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host, Joel, spoke to Isaac Gunson, a spokesperson from the organisation, about these findings.
Tonight's show was actually entirely curated by bFM's own Samuel Harmony, who sent Oto and Jaycee, not just a playlist, but a stack of CDs and Casettes that he collected while he was in Indonesia as part of the New Zealand Delegation attending AXEAN Festival 2025. Whakarongo mai to experience 2 hours of Psych rock, folk, disco and more by Southeast-Asian artists playing at the festival!
Happy New Year and with that Walao starts off strong with Co-Host Jaycee showing us demos and his top plays and discoveries from 2025. From Hyperpop to experimental, what a treat!
Zoë's studying but my golly does she have some theatre reckons for you? MANIAC on the Dance Floor and Kitchen Table Sessions are both on at Basement, a great way to spend a stormy weekend. Plus, Sexy Buddha is on at Pitt St Theatre, also bound to be a great time.
Kiran's brought in a rock-infused number this week. Vinyl. Album. Cover. Art: The Complete Hipgnosis Catalogue is exactly what the title suggests: a full feature of design collective Hipgnosis, showcasing groundbreaking cover art created for iconic rock 'n' roll giants including Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd to name a few.
Andre of HEAVY CHEST (solo/unplugged) is in the studio ahead of the band's Tāmaki Makaurau show at The Tuning Fork this Saturday. The band have just pressed the album Pre-Heat to vinyl in celebration of 5 years since its release. You can cop that over on their website here.
Chur and thank you for playing some unreleased tunes for us also :~)
Joe Kaptein is up in the studio, chatting to Rosetta and Milly about his new album Pool Sharks - out now digitally and on vinyl! Joe also chats about his forthcoming gigs this Thursday and Friday at The Apartment on K Road. Whakarongo mai nei!
Concrete is Ruth Cleland’s second solo exhibition of new and previously unexhibited works, currently on at Sumer Gallery.
Cleland is known for her photorealistic depictions of everyday subjects and scenes, with this exhibition exploring concrete flooring in locations and sites she regularly encounters. The works are more than representations of concrete, but a collection representative of equanimity, eliciting a state of quietude within the viewer.
This body of work shows a subtle but significant development in Cleland’s practice, whereby more emphasis has been placed on the interrelationship between her gridded paintings and photorealistic concrete floor depictions, and how they respond to one another. As in previous works, this exhibition continues Cleland’s ‘sustained inquiry into image and grid—of subject, time, and value—as she traverses the hyperreal and abstract.’
Sofia had a kōrero with Ruth about Concrete, as well as her practice and process more generally.
