Ep. 254 with Kraus + Coach Matt from JEROME Worldwide.

Kraus is one of the most quietly important and interesting figures in Aotearoa electronic music. Since 2002, he has released 18 albums, including his latest Chocolate, Candy, Love and Dreams.
Ahead of his live performance at Catacombs, he he gifts us an hour of his current musical obsessions, from Turkish fuzz disco to headspinning FM synth kaleidoscopes.

After that, we hear from Coach Matt, head of Philadelphia label JEROME Worldwide. Matt founded JEROME Worldwide in 2016 to push music unbounded by genre or popularity. Since then, they have had a ton of releases, including some by previous FPR guests BLEID and Lorica/Avbvrn. We hear an hour of favourites and secret heaters.

Ep. 253 with DJ duo Otto Vlotto and Midi Waters
Otto Vlotto is one of the progenitors of footwork in NZ, and Midi Waters has spent 25+ years in the trenches of dance music. Midi Waters starts off the show with some summer dancefloor heaters. The duo then go cheek-to-cheek for a bit, before Otto Vlotto gets into some hard tekkaz. It's two hours of blisteringly good music bbs.

Ep. 252 with Gee Dee.
Gee Dee lives in New York, where he deejays and makes music. He's co-founded Earth Beat, is a resident at Good Room in Brooklyn, and plays regularly at Philadelphia's long-running party Making Time. He also has a new live project with Juan MacLean called Infinity Machine, and hot solo releases for Planet Trip Records, Superior Elevation Records, and Light of Other Days. On FPR tonight he takes us for a two hour dive into meditative club music, with an emphasis on glorious 90s cuts. It's bliss bbs.

Ep. 250 with Roger Perry
It's time for the sixth annual NZ music special on FPR. This time, we hand over the keys to the legendary Roger Perry.

Roger Perry has been fighting the good fight for nearly 40 years. He started DJing in 1984 at the Venue, an all ages club run by Russ Le Roq (Russell Crowe). From there, he went on to run Asylum, where New Zealand audiences were first introduced to house music. He hosted NZ's first dance music radio show, Asylum FM on bFM. He has also made some masterful music as Reactor Music, Kingsland Housing Project, and Toolbox. His one-take mix for us tonight is a canvassing of house music in Aotearoa, from peerless classics to killer cuts from the new school.

Ep 247 with Ranma Entero + Ngaru & Hunter
Ranma Entero is the alias of Mexican producer and DJ Sergio Tellez. We celebrate his recent Ipecacuana EP with an hour spanning a variety of styles, tempos, and moods from artists both in Mexico and further abroad.
Ngaru & Hunter are no strangers to the dance scene in Tamaki Makaurau; as regular attendees to plenty of club nights, they've been listening for years. Their mix for us marks the first of many to come as two more music-lovers make the jump into the community they've admired for so long.

Ep. 246 with Fabu and Flo Wilson
Wellington-based Fabu has become an established figure in New Zealand over the past year, with regular sets at Club 121 and festivals across the country. She has a penchant for heavy jams dripping with funk and soul, buoyed by percussive and swirling bass lines. We start the show with an hour of her sound.

To finish things off tonight, we hear from Auckland composer, performer, and artist Flo Wilson. Alongside her immersive production work (check out her (Please) Keep Breathing EP), Flo has exhibited sound installations in the USA, Australia, and New Zealand. Flo has shared a mix that is dedicated to her dear friend Reuben Samuel Winter, which journeys from the concert hall to the club, and then back to the bush.
