Music 101 for Saturday 26 November 2011
2 - 3pm
The Sampler: The Beach Boys
"The most famous album never released" - The Beach Boys SMiLE has finally made it to the people. Nick Bollinger takes a listen 45 years after it was produced.
Kinchasa One Two
Recorded over five hectic days in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kinshasa One Two is another ambitious musical project undertaken by Blur lead singer Damon Albarn. With 10 producers in tow he set off for Africa to collaborate with over 50 local musicians, often playing home-made instruments. We speak to Kwes - one of the producers - about the project.

tUnE-yArDs
Merrill Garbus roars, raps, yodels, hollers and croons about social justice and personal issues on Whokill, her second album under the moniker tUnE-yArDs. We talk to her about her background in acting and puppetry, and her collage style approach to making music.
3-4 pm
The Sampler: Hallelujah Picassos
Genre-busting Auckland band Hallelujah Picassos mixed reggae bass lines with thrash guitar, dubbed out horns with Flying Nun-like jangle, Jamaican Patois alongside broad kiwi accents. The band, together from 1988 to 1996, have just released a compilation Rewind The Hateman - Nick Bollinger takes a listen and speaks to band-member Peter McLennon.
Access All Areas: Adrian Sherwood - 30 Years Of On-U Sound
Adrian Sherwood is the elder statesman of UK dub. He's a producer who in the Jamaican tradition employs the mixing desk like a musical instrument. He has worked with a who's who of UK and Jamaican artists and is also the founder of the On-U Sound label, one of the UK's most crucial independent labels which this year celebrates its 30th anniversary. Trevor Reekie talks to Adrian Sherwood.

4-5 pm
Musical Chairs featuring Rim D Paul
Tai at the Tama was where Rotorua's in-crowd danced in the 1950s. Tai Paul and his Pohutu Boys held down a long residency at the Ohinemutu marae. The group also launched the career of Rim D Paul, Tai's son, who became a Maori show band star with the Quin-Tikis, and a leading solo act in the cabarets of Australia. Paul wrote and recorded 'Poi Poi Twist' and sang the theme tune of the film Runaway. He also worked as a musical arranger for the Howard Morrison Quartet and of the Maori National Choir. Chris Bourke spoke to Rim at his home in the Bay of Plenty.
