Adventures In Musicland: Sheep, Dog and Wolf in Europe
Sheep, Dog and Wolf multi-instrumentalist Daniel McBride had a big 2013: his album Egospect appeared on numerous critics’ best-of-2013 lists; he won the Critics’ Choice Prize, wowing the judges with a frenetic, seat-of-the-pants performance; and he toured Europe, a trip that was a year in the making. Along with a cornucopia of instruments, Daniel took some recording equipment to Europe to capture a tour diary for Music 101.

Live: Sola Rosa Live at the Kings Arms
Sola Rosa is such a regular feature on summer festival line-ups that for many, their sound is hardwired to memories of sun, sea and barefoot shimmying. Radio New Zealand was on hand when Sola Rosa played the Kings Arms in Auckland to capture a half-hour of summer sounds for Music 101.

The Nerve Pt 1 - Wired for Sound: Music and the .jpg)
Brain
In episode one of The Nerve, host Jowi Taylor goes on an aural journey, from the creation of sound at its source, through the air and the outer ear to the cochlea, the spinal column, and the cerebral cortex. On the way, he looks at how and why hearing evolved, and how the human ear is designed to react to certain sounds. In episode one, it’s music and the brain.
3-4pm
