Music 101 for Saturday 15 February 2014
2-3pm
Spoek Mathambo
Webstock, a gathering of internet producers, thinkers and creators, is in session this week in Wellington. One of the guests is South African producer, singer-songwriter, and rapper Spoek Mathambo, who speaks about how internet culture has influenced the South African electronic music scene.
And Spoek talks about his latest project working with rural communities in South Africa here.
Kraus
Pat Kraus is self-taught producer whose bedroom, we assume, is a tangled mess of wires, soldering irons, guitars, reel to reel tape and assorted electronic components. He's recently taken his music out of the bedroom and into a live setting - we speak to him about finding beauty in the faulty and losing control.
The Sampler: War Paint
Nick Bollinger listens to the reverb drenched second album from Californian guitar band War Paint.
3-4pm
The Sampler: Inside Llewyn Davis
The new Coen Brothers movie 'Inside Llewyn Davis', tells the story of an American folk singer in the Greenwich Village scene of the early 60s. It screens in NZ movie theatres from this week - Nick Bollinger takes a listen to the T-Bone Burnett produced soundtrack ahead of the movie's release.
Access All Areas: The Mayor of MacDougal Street - Dave Van Ronk
Dave Van Ronk is the musician whom 'Inside Llewyn Davis' is very loosely based. Van Ronk never got close to having a hit single or album during five decades of music-making and slipped into obscurity until his memoir, 'The Mayor of MacDougal Street', co-authored by Elijah Wald, was published posthumously in 2005 and provided the catalyst for the new movie. Trevor Reekie talks to Elijah Wald.
Mark McGuire
Ohio experimental trio Emeralds ex-guitarist Mark McGuire on his new solo concept album Along The Way and the lessons he's learnt working in Hollywood.
4-5pm
Adventures in Musicland: Weird Together

Barnie takes us along on the road as Weird Together play an assortment of summer gigs. Learn what makes the band tick, and how pepper can be used as a musical instrument.
Splore
We cross live to Nick Atkinson at Splore in Tapapakanga Park, Coromandel, one of the most picturesque festival locations in the country.
Isabel Riviera Cuenca
Flamenco dancer Isabel Rivera Cuenca has moved in with local composer and cellist Claire Cowan, who has been inspired to write some compositions based on the traditional Spanish dance form. Nick Atkinson caught a performance in Auckland and then spoke with Isabel and Claire.
