It's my birthday! To celebrate turning the ripe old age of 25, I've selected some groovy songs including the Jimi Hendrix version of Happy Birthday. As well as this, Ty Segall makes an exciting announcement that he will be performing in New Zealand for the first time ever!
This week I'm keeping it pretty chill by just playing some of my music. However, we ramp it up at the end of the show for a special edition of the remix of the day. Kordell Cameron a.k.a. Vercetti swoops in to do a live set as the remix of the day and kills it!
Keeping it chill this week. Just me and the music. However, we do have a little around the world section where we visit Finland and listen to the tunes coming out of there. Hope you enjoy :)
A little bit of a latin theme today with the music on the show. As well as this, special guest Manuela Ovalle Herrera comes into the studio to talk about her band Big Tasty and their gig coming up. She also gets her guitar out and plays us a few jams.
Today we're going for real groovy and cruisey music. All to hide my animosity towards my mother, who gets to fly to Hawai'i while ill stay in New Zealand. But it all subsides as the show goes on.
It's the last day of Winter! So we celebrate with some chill tunes and good vibes. The listeners let me know what they're going to spend their cost of living payment on and we round off the show with a The Cure and Jay Z mash-up.
This week Tuva'a from Wednesday Morning Glory fills in on the True School Hip Hop Show. Aidan Fine joins me in studio where he selects some tracks he's listening to at the moment. As well as this, he performs a freestyle for us. I also showcase some great Hawaiian rap coming out of the Islands, specifically a new Anthology Album on Hawaiian History called Ho'okupu.
It's Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori, and I use this as an excuse to talk about the interconnections of Polynesian culture, specifically between Maori and Samoan languages. My friend Balamohan Shingade also comes into the studio to talk about his work in Hindustani music as well as give us a live performance.
