This week's a e s t h e t i c is dusty desert tunes, tropical synths, soul and exotica - classic old Zambo stuff. It's a Brazil - Italy - Africa axis of power, world domination by beats.
The name of the game is indie pop from around the globe - with Zambo we visit the shores of France, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand (hi mum!) and take an extended cruise though the streets of Japan.
Just little lonely little tiny baby Annabel manning the Top Ten this week, but she still manages to wrestle through the top tracks of the week without a hitch! Plus extra tunes from the likes of Noname, Widowspeak, Laura Jean, Vayne, Japanese Breakfast + MORE!
The show kicks off with a speedy round of Second Guessing, followed by a kōrero with Sam Te Kani about an upcoming multi-media gig with i.e. crazy and Dominic Hoey, then Thomas Monckton tells us about his upcoming show on Stage Direction, and we learn about mussel protection on Ready Steady Learn! Whakarongo mai nei!
Olly from Universal Harmony covers bFM Friday breakfast. Playing some late night radio staples... UKG, alt-Country, non-alt country, and some student radio classics from way back in 2016...
After a big weekend, we're crusing smoothly into Monday with music from the depths of the bFM CD Archive. Peter Lineham talks to us about why some Russians dip themselves into freezing waters, Tyler Baikie breaks down how far we've come with AI making future decisions, and huh that's odd... Corey doesn't read the news at 6pm....
Jonny has been having some strange dreams, Corey thinks the word News is said weirdly by the rest of the world, and Andrew Maitai of Powertool Records comes in for What's Cooking, ahead of PowerWest Fest in the weekend.
