SOUND OF THE SUBURBS W/ LIAM K. SWIGGS on 95bFM #010 (FEATURING SINJIN & LAKEBOON)

OH DAMN SELECTION NUMBER 10 IS A SPECIAL ONE. THE ONE AND ONLY KODI LOTTO, HEAD HONCHO AT B2BO (Been To Berlin Once) COMING THROUGH WITH A KUDURO MIX, AN ELECTRONIC GENRE HAILING FROM PORTUGAL THAT YOU NEED TO HEAR.

WE ASKED KODI - WHAT WAS THE INSPO?   

“MY MIX ROUTINE IS USUALLY SHOTGUNNING A FEW RED BULLS, POWER MUNCHING 10 KG’S OF NUTS, RAISINS & CHOCOLATES, LIFTING MY 40KG TV UP AND DOWN A COUPLE TIMES, RAISING MY HEADPHONES AND YELLING “FOR THE KING!!!, AND THEN OFCOURSE, HITTING THE DECKS FULL STEAM. THAT’S USUALLY HOW I GET INSPIRED. 

  WITH THIS MIX THO, I JUST WANTED OTHER PEOPLE TO HEAR AND ENJOY ONE OF MY FAVOURITE GENRES TBH. FOR ME, IT’S ALL ABOUT THE UNIQUE PERCUSSION, RHYTHMS & SAMPLING OF KUDURO - ONE COULD LIKELY “POP IT LIKE A TOASTER” AT ANY SECOND."

95bFM Residency #008: The Big Fresh Collective host LIAM K. SWIGGS!

Redwood’s favourite prodigal son Liam K. Swiggs is a bonafide local Ōtautahi Lad who loves watching a bit of Rugby League, slamming back a box of Haägen's and ripping a few cones; And when he’s not out keeping the streets safe on Redwood Patrol - He curates the Independent Belfast Based Record label; The Big Fresh Collective.

With a longtime love for student radio and the influence from his parents he formed his taste for music as he dived through boxes of records in his local store, growing up surrounded by Indie Alternative vibes from his Dad Neil & Mother Bronwyn Swiggs, starting off his own journey with a healthy obsession for hip hop, followed by the angsty teen death & black metal years, channeling his aggression back into some hardcore punk, back towards hip hop and eventually winding up in the world of Ghetto Technical Electronic Music.

This mix represents a killer sidestep for Liam K. Swiggs showcasing some of his favourite non footwork/juke music from past, present & future at his native 160BPM tempo - Littered with unreleased tracks and unearthed classics this mix packs a punch like a front rower running off the back fence - Yummy!

Featuring traxxx from; Andwahn, Casper De Wit, Lakeboon, DeepState, Karl Stevens, Grecco Romank, DJ CDQ and a whole lot of edits from Liam K. Swiggs himself!
