This is my first show back after a short hiatus... and it's great to be back! While I was away, I had lots of time to collate some tunes for your Thursday morning. Some highlights include: In Aid of Gaza, a ten track UK Garage compilation supporting the conflict in Gaza; alongside the usual mish-mash of ambient melodic sounds. See you all next week!
Come on down to the Kids' Show LIVE in Aotea Square this Sunday (23rd Feb) - Lee and Finn will be there plus we'll have performances from Spellodies, Carnivorous Plant Society! Not to mention we'll have giveaways galore, there'll be tea and coffee for the adults and breakfast for the kids and a whole lot more!
💚 High-energy show this week. All genre's, all eras, it's a fiestsa!
Obtuse tune of the week: Pearson Sound - XLB Live Before the Entertainment Guide: Animal Collective - Kids On Holiday (Live)
We also go insearch of which track has the same riff as Superette's Touch Me. Please send help.
Lots of love, apologies for my own personal energy being a bit low today, blah blah sickness blah blah. See you all same time next week, with love. Or tomorrow at the Wine Cellar!
💚 playlist is also available here for streaming on spotify. (But if you listen and like, please consider supporting on bandcamp / otherwise <3)
Hey there be-boppers. Blind Mango Chutney in the chair for a cracking 95bFM Jazz Show showcasing hard bop, be-bop, acoustic jazz, and even (gasp!) yacht rock.
Band leader and drummer Taylor Griffin drops in the studio on his way to play Music in Parks at the Auckland Domain band rotunda, to talk about inspiration, influences and recent projects—including his new EP ‘In Green’ (featuring Nathan Haines). And Blind Mango finishes up (perhaps?) his stories about the Dave Pike Set.
And of course don’t miss the Gig Guide, for all your upcoming jazz news and grooves around town.
