Dreamy tracks from Fazerdaze, Bjork, Hanbee and Ethel Cain. Today Emma's joined by Zoe Walker Ahwa, editor and co-founder of Ensemble (which is celebrating its fifth birthday) and the two chat about the magic of indie media in Aotearoa.
The first of a special, and somewhat spontaneous, Tāmaki Makaurau two-parter, this week's show sees Emma talking to Greatsouth's Payton Taplin about how his music is informed by the past and present of where he lives (and why he wouldn't want to be anywhere else). On the theme of Auckland, there's also early listens to Babe Martin's 'April in the City' and Dick Move's 'Up the Bus', plus tracks from The Front Lawn, Sisters Underground, P.H.F, 3 The Hard Way, Elemeno P and more. Tune in next week for part two (including Die! Die! Die! and The Androids).
