It's time for Wednesday Breakfast! Rosetta and Milly have a big day ahead with the Taite Music Prize tonight, and a great show to kick things off for you dear listeners. E whai ake nei; the announcement of Strange Universe Winter Edition support acts, Parakuihi Pals with Radio One, Loose Reads with Jenna, and a kōrero with Gabrielle Vincent from the Auckland Writers Festival about Plot Twist! Whakarongo mai nei.
This week's show focuses on The Clean's 1986 Compilation, comprised of most of their early output, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. Features various tracks from The Clean's discography, as well as from associated artists such as The Great Unwashed, Chris Knox and Bailter Space. Also includes songs from other mid-80s Flying Nun/Dunedin Sound artists such as The Chills, The Bats and Headless Chickens, as well as overseas contemporaries such as R.E.M. and The Smiths!
After a sleepless night proceeding a big weekend, Jack hauls his sorry ass into the hallowed bFM studio to give you everything you need from your early morning radio. We've got tunes, we've got rambling sleep deprived hosts, you name it - we probably don't have it, but we definitly have 2 solid hours of audio goodness just for you.
Today on your bFM Breakfast: After a pretty warm evening, Rachel's got some hot tunes to start your Tuesday; His Worship, Phil Goff, talks about the housing crisis, homelessness and expensive transport; Sam's been watching Stephen King adaptations; and Dr. David Welch joins us to talk about loud music. Nice.
This week on the show we spin a couple to make the passing of William Hart of The Delfonics, and guest DJ Aaron Laloyer AKA A-Train jams a few favourites. Ears on!
