Music 101 for Saturday 8 August 2015

2–3pm

The Phoenix Foundation in Session
The Phoenix Foundation have sounded a bum note with the title of their new album, Give Up Your Dreams, but the scope of their sonic ambition is as wide as ever. With the album released this Friday, The Phoenix Foundation’s Samuel Scott, Luke Buda and Chris O’Connor join Emma Smith in studio for a stripped-back set of new songs.

Kirsten Te Rito - Āiotanga
Kirsten Te Rito (Ngati Kahungunu and Rongomaiwahine) and husband James Illingworth are a well-integrated musical and domestic unit.  While raising a family, they have produced, released and toured their music, and more recently, have begun to learn te reo māori.  Āiotanga is their second exclusively te reo album, which fuses contemporary jazz and electronic beats with Kirsten’s soulful puoro.  Over tea and scones, Yadana Saw has a korero with Kirsten and James about their shared passion for music and language.

3–4pm

Lydia Lunch
No wave icon Lydia Lunch of Teenage Jesus and the Jerks is bringing her back catalogue to life with Retrovirus, who are on tour in Aotearoa this week. Nicknamed ‘Lunch’ for her skill at swiping meals for The Dead Boys, the polarising spoken word artist has collaborated on film and musical projects with Henry Rollins, The Birthday Party, Sonic Youth and Rowland S. Howard. She revisits the no wave days in NYC with Emma Smith.

Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
With no-frills rock’n’roll outfits like Boss Hog, Pussy Galore and the Blues Explosion, Jon Spencer has been twisting blues, rock and hip hop into new shapes for three decades. In the country for a run of Blues Explosion shows, he sits down with Sam Wicks to trawl through a selection of deep cuts from some of his seminal influences.

Deadboy Records
Former Bleeders frontman Angelo Munro is the founder and one half of Deadboy Records, a local label championing New Zealand metalcore, punk and everything in between for the last 10 years.   Zac Arnold caught up with Angelo and Vasely Sapunov, the men behind the label on the eve of their 10 year anniversary.

4–5pm

Bill Sevesi - 2015 New Zealand Music Hall of Fame Inductee
Bill Sevesi is this year's inductee into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame, and with good reason. Referred to as the Godfather of Pacific: during the early 1950s, the much-loved band leader and his band, the Islanders, played a residency at the Orange Ballroom in the Auckland inner-city suburb of Newton, which would last for 16 years. Throughout his 80-year career, he has mentored many musicians, recorded a large catalogue of music and fulfilled his dream of the ukulele being taught in schools. Trevor Reekie visits Bill Sevesi at his Mt Roskill home to talk about the music that has been so kind to him throughout his lifetime.
