#44: NZ Mixtape
New Zealand, AKA those funny looking islands to the east of Australia has no doubt got it all: Hobbits, hakas, sweet mountain views and Helen Clark.
Put it down to their timezone advantage, but one listen to the nation's musical output and there's a definite pattern forming - the Kiwis have no qualms in being early adopters to killer new sounds and exciting sonic ideas. At least until Australia claims them as their own. Enjoy our salute to NZ, with the aptly titled NZ Mixtape - a collection of our favourite tunes both old and new (and in the case of Die! Die! Die! - the first single from their forthcoming new album), from Flying Nun to Sam Neill.
