It's Renee's turn on the Gang of Four. The Kiwi Classic Throwback is a tribute to Roy Phillips of The Peddlers - originally from the UK, but he made Aotearoa NZ his home. And boy can he play the Hammond organ! There are also a couple of classic Kirikiriroa Hamilton songs in the mix ahead of Contact FM's reunion party next Saturday May 3rd (for more info go to Contact Will Always Be Your Friend on Facebook). You'll also hear new recent tunes from Ocean Beach, The Bemsha Swing and Please Give Blood.
My first show of 2025! Randomness guaranteed (as usual). Includes the Kiwi Classic Throwback at 8pm, which is a throwback to an early example of Aotearoa shoegaze. Plus a tribute to the one and only Marianne Faithfull.
A mixed bag (as per!) plus the Kiwi Classic Throwback at 8pm.
Amongst the usual mixed bag of tunes, I had the pleasure of a special guest joining me - Mr George D. Henderson of The Puddle/Mink/New Existentialists. George writes an excellent music blog, apltly named Songs From Insane Times. He brought up some of his favourite discoveries.
It's Renee's turn on the Gang of Four - the night before the election! There aren't too many political songs, but there are a couple. Polly polly politician! And new song by a member of Blam Blam Blam (clue: it's not Don McGlahsan). And for my fellow goths, in honour of Friday 13th, there are a few dark songs near the end of the show.
It's Renee's turn on the Gang of Four. Randomness is guaranteed, and a new book is the basis for the Kiwi Classic Throwback at 8pm. I also found a vintage bFM ad by Auckland band The Warners, from a time when the station's frequency was still 91.8.
Renee's New Zealand Music Month special. The show includes some singles unearthed from the bFM archives by Miss Dom...
It's Renee's turn on the Gang of Four, playing a very mixed bag. And the Kiwi Classic Throwback is a birthday shoutout!
Renee takes her turn on The Gang of Four. You'll find out the connection between The Veils and Shriekback (you may already know), and the Kiwi Classic Throwback remembers Darcy Clay, who very sadly passed away 25 years ago. There's also a bit of a St Patrick's Day set.
Renee takes the reins of The Gang of Four. Do check out the Kiwi Classic Throwback at round 8pm - it's a song from 1980, but actually sounds quite flash today. And if you like this band, they're playing at the Powerstation on Friday March 23rd.
Renee's turn on the Gang of Four. We say happy 50th birthday to Split Enz!
