Simon Grigg was involved in Radio b from 1975 until 2002. During that time, he started NZ's first punk group the Suburban Reptiles, launched Propeller Records, was instrumental in this nation's club and DJ culture, took How Bizarre to the world - and even turned down opportunities to license both Factory Records and Stock Aitken & Waterman. He hosted the long-running BPM show, introducing hip-hop, house and techno to the b airwaves. Finally, he reveals the truth: between 1977 and 1980, b was so conservative that NO punk or post-punk was on the airwaves. (Episode 21 Simon Grigg Parts 1-2 of 2)

The Zero Carbon bill passed in Parliament yesterday, with a vote of 119 to one. The landmark bill received cross-party support, however National has expressed some changes they would implement if given the chance, such as reducing the biogenic methane limits. Meanwhile, environmental groups have been criticising the Select Committee report for not taking into account submissions concerning the lack of legal enforceability and fixed methane targets.
Producer Bronwyn Wilde spoke to Kevin Hague, Chief Executive of Forest and Bird, and former member of the Green Party, who was present in Parliament yesterday. He gave us some insight into the kind of debates that were taking place in the House.
He began by expressing his support for the Act, despite noting that it alone isn’t going to reduce carbon emissions.
Admist a world-wide plague some Dickhead with a Radio Show & a DDJ-RB decides to smash out a couple DnB mixes with some funky tunes as well. "BuT OlLiE yOu HaTe DrUm N bAsS" Yeah, well, too bad karen. While this is true and usually I think most COMMERCIAL DnB is over-played garbage, this mix is an exception because it's got a bit more focus on breaks, I doubt you'd hear any of these on old GeorgeFM ;) Have a Listen!
