Blind Mango Chutney is in the chair for HIS last show of the year. The O.G. takes the opportunity to hit you with some of the the festive jazz cuts lurking in his tote bag.

Mōrena! Just Joel this morning with 3 hours sleep following the 95bFM Christmas Party! Tune in to hear them struggle through 2 hours of radio! Whakarongo mai!

Kris McFang and Rob Bollix bring in a show filled with Plato's Retreat firsts: The first metal song played (as requested by Plato's youngest avid fan Louis who joins the team in studio), the first Phil Collins cover, and the first UK Grime special which runs for the last 30 minutes of the show. Many thanks to sponsors Hallertau for their support and to all the listeners (both to the live broadcast and to this podcast). Final show of the year is next week!!!

This Rāmere (Friday), the Grom is joined by Fran (the devious grommet), with a nice selection of sounds for your ears, exploring some alternative pop and pop genre. Get frothed! 🦊🫘🍠⚖️🪔

If you are a teenager or know a teenager who would like to come on the show, just get in touch! [email protected] 

Rosetta and Milly phone up our lovely mates down in Te Whanganui a Tara at Radio Active, Sunaina and Emma! They catch up on the Aotearoa Alternative Awards, and what's happening across the Capital and up in Tāmaki. Whakarongo mai nei!

Mitchell McGrath is a Tāmaki-based designer and artist, whose work explores notions of spatial perception through these embodied material explorations of imaging techniques. That is then transferred into works of embodied materiality in spaces, experiences, and objects. 

In his current exhibition at Window gallery A VIEW FOR EACH EYE McGrath presents this beautiful luminescent installation of colour and its shifting movements through space. An exploration of these fluxing wavelengths of chromatic colours in relation to our own bodily position. 

The colours and form shift, and pivot as one moves throughout the space. A dance of colour that rewards a lengthened viewing—a viewing individual to each eye, person, and body, as one devels into the exhibitions shifting chromatic landscape.

Maya had a chat with Mitchell about the show and overall practice.
