Heading over the ditch this week to one of our favourite musical lands Aotearoa for a journey through the unique landscape and music of the kiwi isles with a selection of punky, noisey, poppy, indie and lo-fi goodies. Should be a good time. Great to have you along for the journey.

Opening with an original, this mix drifts through shimmering synths, hazy house, and jazz tinted electronica. A soundtrack that includes lounge daydream and cosmic road trip. From Com Truise’s neon nostalgia to Todd Terje’s cocktail funk, with Psychemagik and Nicolas Jaar pushing further into deep space territory. It’s a  playful and hypnotic journey that covers downtempo, electronic, soul, jazz, and house gradually building from mellow, spacey rhythms into more energetic grooves.
