Kia ora – I am trying to track down what's happening in Christchurch for Record Store Day (as is my wont this time of year). Not having any joy so far, so if you – or the PA crew – know anything happening Ōtautahi side, give e a yell. Thanks.

...I far prefer some of the more challenging, adventurous bands around, than a bunch of dude-bros.

As every domestic political debate seems to be escalating towards hyperbole and madness, a couple of new media-political tunes have come across my desk. I feel it is important to the nation that I share these.

hey Russell, found some disco bangers in the RG bargain bins – struck a seam of 80s/ 90s 12" that had me looking over my shoulder to check if anyone else was going to jump in to a box ahead of me.

From what I gather, at least four locations are participating: Real Groovy, Southbound, Marbecks and the Cross Street market. Looking forward to it!
