To close out NZ Music Month, The Swap Meet went deep into the local crate for a full show of Aotearoa sounds - new, old, and a few things nobody's heard yet. We had exclusive pre-release listens from some killer upcoming records: The Lahaar, Nathan Haines & The Illusions, The Circling Sun, and a stunning ensemble session featuring Paul Dyne, Julien Dyne, Joe Kaptein, Isaac Aesilli, Lucien Johnson, Ruby Walsh, John Bell, Finn Scholes, and Harrison Choi - music that's due out soon and well worth the wait. Alongside those, the record bag was full of finds from a year of digging through dusty bins - everything from Kevin Field and Clear Path Ensemble to Gold Matter, Leonard Charles, Emcee Lucia, and a few real oddities that don't fit any neat category.

Dujon Cullingford took over for a 30-minute mix focused on the yacht rock and AOR side of Aotearoa's 70s and 80s with Malcolm McCallum, Kim Hart, Rock Candy, Merv Owen and friends, all getting their moment. 

The rest of the show kept moving through jazz, beats, soul: SPDRTWNBBY live at 95bFM, Alan Broadbent, Louisa Williamson, Wave Infinity Junction live, and closing things out with the Commodores' Cebu: RIP Ronald LaPread.
