Music 101 for Saturday 14 April 2012
2-3pm
Patti Austin
Grammy winner, and headliner of the 50th National Jazz Festival in Tauranga, singer Patti Austin talks about her brave musical venture- paying tribute to "The First Lady Of Song", Ella Fitzgerald.
The Sampler: Karen Dalton
Prior to Bob Dylan writing in his 2004 memoir that she had a "voice like Billie Holiday's and played guitar like Jimmy Reed", not many people had heard of Karen Dalton. The bluesy folk singer accompanying herself on banjo and 12-string guitar had her two albums re-released posthumously about 5 years ago, and home recordings keep appearing - guest Sampler Troy Ferguson takes a listen to the latest: 1966.
Cool Rainbows
Cool Rainbows is the moniker of Auckland producer and songwriter Djeisan Suskov (pictured right). Recorded in his Dad's recording studio, Whale Rocket is the first album of his own, after a busy few years producing for Dear Time's Waste, Artisan Guns, Tiny Ruins and Ruby Frost.
3-4pm
Killing Joke
"I want it hard, fast, lots of feedback, lots of stops....and they can't write anything before they come into the studio!" honks Jaz Coleman, talking about the possibility of producing the next Shihad record, rekindling the fiery relationship that gave birth to Shihad's first LP Churn. Nick Atkinson talks with the Killing Joke lead singer, in Auckland to promote the new Killing Joke album MMXII.
The Sampler: Flying Nun - Time To Go
Troy Ferguson explores a new compilation from the Flying Nun canon, assembled by Dead-C member Bruce Russell. It brings together some of the more psychedelic and noisy early-to-mid 80s songs from artists including The Clean, The Pin Group, The Builders and the Gordons.
DHDFDs
Spiky suburban Auckland band DHDFDs talk about their debut French Fries - produced by one of their local heroes - ex-Mint Chick Kody Nielson.

Around The World in 80 Tunes Pt 4: Mongolia
From the legacy of Genghis Khan, to the vast wild plains and their nomadic inhabitants, Mongolian music is steeped in a rich history and culture. Host Nick Dwyer meets up with Anda Union, who live in the Chinese-ruled Inner Mongolia. The band is active in the revival of Mongolian tradition and folklore among the minority Mongol population within the autonomous state. From there it's off to the Mongolian Republic for a demonstration of throat singing, whilst in Ullanbator, a trip downstairs to visit many of the capital's finest late-night haunts uncovers an emerging indie rock and underground scene.

Narasirato Panpipers
One of the musical and visual highlights of Womad Taranaki 2012, bass piper for Solomon Islands group Narasirato Jimmy Ho'asimarana gives an insight into his village's musical traditions.
