Benny is back, tonight he's joined by Alexander Brown of Wrought Material and Glenn Bowman and Alex Grey of Auckland doom metal act Draulicht, they play us something off their upcoming demo and the show devolves into incessant shit talk, essential listening for those who remember the letters to the editors section of the worst fanzines imaginable.
Loads of Aussie stuff, old and new (Oily Boys!!), will put up the podcast once I've had some sleep. New Subdued record from La Vida Es Un Mus Discos definitely deserves a mention along with the killer synthy NRRRV song and a track from the fucked seven inch Barcelona released is on there too.
Finally I'm back after a short hiatus and our regular programming can finally resume. Whole bunch of shit here, new and old and as per usual I'm too exhausted to provide much of a description. It's all good shit, I promise.
It's a sunny Friday morning in the bFM studio and Rachel and Zoë are coffee'd up and raring to go.
They kick off by chatting movies with Fabian Fanboy.
They then elegantly segway into the Travelling Tunes segment with Dr. Kirsten Zemke who this week takes them down the glorious rabbit hole of television theme songs, including the likes of Hawaii Five-0 and Twin Peaks.
Then they're joined in studio by the one and only, force of nature Disciple Pati to talk about her fantastic new release, ATMA. All of this good stuff is of course interspersed with the usual fantastic tunes picked by Rachel.
Pull the car over, it’s time for the 95bFM Top 10 with your hosts Annabel and Callum! After a baffling conversation with chart analyst Jonathan Pearce, we got straight to it with them tunes, with a modest goal of cracking an as-of-yet unobtainable 20 song playlist total... all the while playing the 10 biggest songs in the nation. Will we make it? Park up and tune in.
I tēnei ata kei te Hōtaka Parakuihi: The show kicks off with a super speedy round of second guessing; then the Mayor is on the line with a spicy interview onSounding Off w/ Phil Goff; Martin and Nicola of Repairs are in the studio to chat ahead of The Others Way; some of the crew from Here & Now festival'sFleshies 2.0 come up for Stage Direction; there's a Short Player thanks to LIPS and Jess Fu's Totally Wired; and we talk about LSD microdosing on Ready Steady Learn! Whakarongo mai!
