So long cafe gigs, hello radio show
After a year of maintaining a regular night at Katipo Cafe we've
decided to let it go and channel that energy into our radio chakras. Or somesuch.
Last Tuesday was our inaugural adventure into radio, at least our first dedicated show. A very excited listener called up and asked "Is this real?" which I thought was pretty awesome. We look forward to expanding further into the ontological and epistomological consultancy markets in the future.
2:30AM eternal
We've been busy-beavering of late, playing the Apropos of Nothing CD release last Friday and also our regular night last night.
Report back from the Auckland Angry Rabbit CD release
Malty Media went on tour to sunny Auckland* last weekend to promote the CD launch of Angry Rabbit's electronica compilation album, "...Apropos of Nothing" (we are two thirds of Angry Rabbit, and our track 'Mescaline Man' is on the CD).
"Have we got a video?"
We've been somewhat remiss when it comes to mentioning our involvement with an upcoming CD compilation on this site... well, we're on a compilation called '...Apropos of Nothing' and were two of the three bods involved with the compiling and releasing of the thing.
The Malty Media tune that appears on the CD also has a rather awesome, cut-up video from Oneedo, which you may watch below.
Belated report back from last week's show
Another relaxed gig. We seemed to have found some bona fide regulars, which is really nice.
Michael did some astonishing stuff with the RTR theme from 1983, and a Rowan Atkinson ad for appletizer ("fish heads!"), while I took the riposte with a dub out of Mike Oldfield's soft-cock hippy classic Moonlight Shadow and Taco's immortal cover of Irving Berlin's 'Putting on the Ritz'.
