Abigail Aroha Jensen, a multi-disciplinary artist and sometimes DJ based in Tāmaki Makaurau. She goes by the moniker M4URI M4STA for her exploration into ORO - ORO being the realm of sound. She recently released her debut PŪORO PLAY V0L 001 - a soundscape of tāonga pūoro, wai, debris and various urban field recordings she took travelling between Kirikiriroa and Parnell train station. On the show, she weaves her favourite lockdown tracks with taonga pūoro to send you on a journey within.

“To understand mauri is to acknowledge the inherent life force in all things. All things carrying importance - All things to be explored.

I understand mauri less as being able to be manipulated and more of a force that bends and grows .

Mauri is immutable yet has the power to transform through our relationship with it. The mauri within oro transcends time and space.

Exploring oro in unison with hā (breath), Te Taiao (the natural world) and our surroundings connects you to where you are, what you see, hear and feel.”

Damon began DJing at the age of 17, and was quickly immersed in New Zealand's UK influenced bass scene. His move to Amsterdam in 2015 connected him with his Dutch roots and introduced him to Europe's rich history of house, techno, break-beat, and Electronic music. He has now returned to Aotearoa, and we are so stoked to welcome him on the show with this mix of recent finds.

Jane Olsen is a DJ who hails from Christchurch, has lived in Amsterdam, and now calls Auckland home. She has an effervescent style that is inspired by a range of genres, artists and dancefloors. It is this breadth of taste that led her to set up the ‘Parks & Rec’ mix series, which focuses on easy tunes intended for the sunshine, the park or the picnic rug. For this broadcast, she unleashes some of her pent up energy driven by the limbo of lockdown.

حلالاماما (HALALAMAMA) is the moniker of Iraqi artist Mariam Tawfik.  Mariam is behind the club night HAFLEH, which is a party run by and for migrants in Aotearoa. Her sets centre heavy percussive sounds and vocals, and are influenced by long drawn-out orchestral ballads by artists such as Oum Kalthoum and Warda, and works by more contemporary middle eastern producers such as DJ Plead and Al Nather. Her mix for us tonight draws together tracks and samples from several different genres and eras, including the Iraqi classic Khala Ya Khala by Bassim Al-Ali, one of her mothers favourite tunes, works by the Wellington based producer Aspen, and bangers by Nancy Ajram.
