Anatomy of a Song - Tiny Ruins
Anatomy of a Song is a radio series produced by RDU 98.5 FM in Christchurch, which explores the sounds and processes used to produce a recorded song, using classic tracks from well-known New Zealand musicians. Each episode sees Spanky Moore at a mixing desk with an artist to dissect the different elements of one of their tracks, and to get under the hood of what it is that makes that song special. This week it’s Tiny Ruins’ ‘Reasonable Man’.

David Bowie Is
David Bowie Is, is the first international retrospective exhibition spanning the extraordinary career of the artist, musician and performer born David Robert Jones. Curated by London's V&A Museum, the exhibition features original outfits, personal effects, films, and music from Bowie's comprehensive personal archive. While David Bowie himself isn't touring, the David Bowie Is exhibition has been drawing crowds worldwide from London to Paris, Chicago, and now Melbourne, Australia.  Join Yadana Saw as she heads across the ditch to ACMI (Australian Centre for the Moving Image) for a tour of David Bowie is.
