This week we are super lucky to have the extremely successful Wellington electronic producer and composer, Rhian Sheehan. Rhian Sheehan was not just one of, but THE first artist to be released by now legendary Loop Recordings with Paradigm Shift in 2001. Since then he has moved away from being just a simple electronic artist and moved into orchestral composition and working with live bands, all while maintaining his signature ambient, chill vibe. We talk about what it was like making music during the early 00's, his shift in style and the making of Standing In Silence as well as his exciting new live show with the release of his new album, A Quiet Divide. Check out Rhian Sheehan here: https://rhiansheehan.bandcamp.com/ Playlist: Intro- Rhian Sheehan She Walks Into Mine- Rhian Sheehan Boundaries- Rhian Sheehan Standing In Silence Part 3- Rhian Sheehan Nocturne 1985- Rhian Sheehan Standing In Silence Part 6- Rhian Sheehan Soma Dreams- Rhian Sheehand Knuckles- Plaines

This episode takes a bit of a dark turn and looks at how Wellington music and the city itself faced challenges after the 2008 economic crash. Less focused on bands, more on the industry itself, I have still included a playlist of music from the period. This week I am joined again by Mikee Tucker of Loop Recordings, as well as Justin Lester, the current mayor of Wellington City and Ben Mulchin, owner and manager of the venerable live bar Valhalla. Playlist- Burning- Kora Unsettled Scenes- Riverblind Standing In Silence Pt. 3- Rhian Sheehan Tunnel Vision- Riverblind Rivermen- Beastwars Silence & Youth- Grayson Gilmore Lines & Lights- Moonlight Flit Runes/Ruins- Hex All tracks claim fair dealing for education and review.

This week in Episode Two we look at what is now considered by many to be the "Golden Age" of Wellington music. The Dub/Electronic scene pushed by Loop Recordings from 1998 to 2008. This scene happened while Wellington was in a creative boom, with the Lord Of The Rings trilogy bringing in money and talent into the capital. Such acts to come out of this situation were Fat Freddie's Drop, The Black Seeds, Trinity Roots, Rhian Sheehan, King Kapisi, The Phoenix Foundation and yes, even The Flight Of The Conchords. We are joined again by our past guests Aaron Tokona of Weta and later music producer Pete Jamieson and introducing Mikee Tucker, the founder of Loop and co-founder of Fly My Pretties. As promised here's a link to another podcast with more on Loop and the Wellington Dub/Electronic sound. www.mixcloud.com/basefm/indigenou…24th-march-2017/ Playlist Clav Dub- Rhombus Pavor Nocturnus- Distant Earth (theme) Sense and Cents- Trinity Roots Waiting (feat.
