Mantronix - In Full Effect (1988)

After gifting my old turntable to my daughter Imogen and partner Tim in Wellington, they have now been plunged into the world of pain that is collecting and listening to vinyl.

Swans - The Seer (2012)

This is a CD I have always been very reluctant (aka being really frightened) to play. I mean Ray Haliburton’s Allmusic User Review from 2015 proclaims “…if you’re looking for music that is truly horrifying, visceral, epic and absorbing, step right up.

Another fabulous compilation from French couple, Marie and Lionel Liminana (with a bit of help from a myriad of others).This is their second collection in two years.

El Michels Affair Meets Liam Bailey - Ekundayo Inversions (2021)

Brilliant remix/dubbed up version of Liam Bailey’s “Ekundayo” album - which I listened to just the other day. Every day I ask the question, “where has all of this wonderful music been all of my life”.

Kimbra - Vows (2011)

Hamilton-born, Kimbra Johnson is really hard to categorise. There’s simply no doubt about it though, she’s one hell of a talent.
