More interviews coming up

The Angry Rabbit crew External link (which includes me) will be doing some more radio interviews in support of this Friday's release party. We'll be talking about the release gig (we make up 3 of the 4 acts between us) and the CD.

First up is Tuesday 6pm on Radio Active's Drive show.
Thursday night we'll do a bit of a guest spot on The Session, from 9pm.
And I believe Friday will be another quick spot on the breakfast show, sometime after 7 and before 9am.

You can stream Radio Active External link if you like. It's that kind of thing.

Interviews for Apropos Of Nothing

I'm doing a whole lot of interviews leading up to the Auckland release gig for 'Apropos of Nothing'.

First, there's more information about the cD itself over on the label site External link, including some tunes to download and a player to listen to every track.

Kirsten Johnstone from Radio National interviewed me and Stuart McDonald, last week. Jet Jaguar & Aquaboogie respectively, collectively Malty Media, and two of the three organisers of the compilation.
It's going to air twice:

The Music Mix, Thursday 14th from 11.06PM (Check the time in your timezone External link)
Stream Radio National External link

Music 101, Saturday 16th from 2.00PM (Check the time in your timezone External link)
Stream Radio National External link


Andrew Loughnan (Group Five, and the other CD organiser) and I are also being interviewed by Andrew Manning on B, and we'll have some give aways of the CD.

Freak the Sheep, Wednesday 13th from 9.00PM (Check the time in your timezone External link)
Stream BFM External link


And finally, an early morning chat with Lewis Tennant.

The Morning Toaster, Friday 15th - probably just after 7.00AM or I might still be in the shower! (Check the time in your timezone External link)
Stream BFM External link


Oh, and we've also got a wee feature (contradiction in terms!?) in this week's print version of Groove Guide External link which is out tomorrow.

Malty Media @ Katipo - 6th August

This month's session will be a chance for a sneak preview of a whole lot of collaborative live jams.

End of August is a release party for our first release on CD, a track on the forthcoming compilation 'Apropos of Nothing'. Seemed like a fitting occasion to bust out a decent hour or so of, ah, "originals". The CD also has solo Aquaboogie and Jet Jaguar stuff, but we'll be playing none of that Wednesday.

Malty Media no. 4

The next Malty Media chill out evening is next Wednesday. As usual it'll be a laid back mix of playing our own stuff and mixing up other people's things. All looks like two guys at laptops, I suppose.

We've been having fun so far.
