New Music Friday – 14th December 2018

Its Friday so its time for five brand new tracks to get their first spin on the hour every hour from 9am. We’ll keep playing these tracks on New Zealand Net Radio, home of streaming radio ad free 24/7 throughout New Zealand.

Its our last New Music Friday for the year. Next week we’ll round up our favourite tracks of 2018 (yes we try to wait for any last minute treasures!).

Toro Y Moi – Ordinary Pleasure

Baynk – Off Limits feat. Glades

ZAYN – There You Are

From his forthcoming album – this one should get some chart traction.

MorMor – Pass the Hours

Seeb – Grip feat Bastille

New Music Friday: 7th December 2018

Mark Ronson – Nothing Breaks Like A Heart featuring Miley Cyrus

Stop the presses on single of the year – this one will be big.

Cheat Codes x Kim Petras – Feeling Of Falling

Amila – Somebody Like You

We always get very nervous when the Herald starts beating the drum of “New Zealand’s newest rising pop star” but this young woman sure has talent, and a great story.

Alessia Cara – Out Of Love

NME in its review of her new album the pains of growing said “On the evidence of this impressive and winningly authentic second album, Cara is increasingly unforgettable.” This song is just one outstanding track from this talent.

Jeff Tweedy – I Know What It’s Like

The Wilco frontman returns with solo album Warm.

New Music Friday: 30th November 2018

GRAACE – SOS

A great track off her recent EP Self-Sabotage

Anne-Marie – Perfect to Me

An uplifting track from the British pop phenomenon.

Billie Eilish – come out and play

Part of Apple’s ‘holiday’ (i.e. Christmas) campaign another nice track following on from “when the party’s over” a few weeks ago.

Norah Jones – Wintertime

Avalanche City – Prayed For Love

And we saved the best for last (in our humble opinion!). We haven’t heard any music from this amazing Kiwi artist since 2015. This fantastic track presages his new album My Babylon early next year – can’t wait!

New Music Friday: 22nd November 2018

Hozier – Movement

Mumford & Sons – Beloved

Lennon Stella – Fortress

Rita Ora – Velvet Rope

Lastlings – Deja Vu

New Music Friday – 16th November 2018

NOURI – Where Do We Go From Here

New Zealand’s latest pop star . . . now based in LA. Hope her dreams come through – certainly a great first single.

Jonas Blue, Jessie Reyez, Juan Magan – Wherever You Go

From the British DJ’s first album, another great track from a nice selection of recent and new tracks.

dodie – If I’m Being Honest

From her forthcoming EP Human, dodie is an English singer-songwriter from Essex.

Leisure – Feeling Free

An awesome summer track from the Kiwi (Auckland) quintet.

Tom Odell – If You Wanna Love Somebody

Quite a classy English songwriter who has been releasing music since 2012, Tom Odell hasn’t made too much of an impact in New Zealand. His new album Jubilee Road has some pretty classy music on it. We’ll be adding more tracks in coming weeks.

New Music Friday – 9th November 2018

Whew – massive week. We’ve already added a fantastic track from Indie band Sunflower Bean (“Come For Me”), and all this to look forward to – and more new tracks coming on the weekend. NZ Hip Hop/Rap artist Kings has put out a great new album with a huge range of sounds. We’re not into the rap stuff, but we love “Carry You”!

Tarn PK – Talk To You

Galantis – Emoji

Kings – Carry You

Ellie Goulding & Diplo – Close To Me

H.E.R. – Carried Away

New Music Friday – 2nd November 2018

Thomston – The Heights

Steve Aoki – Waste It On Me feat BTS

Kygo – Happy Now feat. Sandro Cavazza

Rudimental – Walk Alone feat. Tom Walker

The Teskey Brothers – Say You’ll Do

New Music Friday: 26th October 2018

Rüfüs Du Sol – Treat You Better

Been loving this music from the Australian trio this week, another chance to enjoy this great new album.

Richard Ashcroft – That’s When I Feel It

From his pleasant new album Natural Rebel the former Blur frontman has produced some more simple but classic sounds.

Billie Eilish – When The Party’s Over

We can take or leave some of this popsters work but this is one of her best singles. I wish she didn’t look like she’d over-indulged in mind changing substances all the time though!

NEIKED – How Did I Find You (feat. Miriam Bryant)

Openside – Work Out

And saving the best for last, another teaser song from Kiwi band Openside – these tracks are such earworms – should be in the top 10!

New Music Friday: 19th October 2018

After a bit of a break Sia reminds us that she’s “Still Here”, great new Kiwi music from Maggie Rogers (a superb track from her promised debut album next January) as well as superb music from Ella Mai, Meg Mac and Jess Glynne ( a great all female lineup this week).

Meg Mac – Give Me My Name Back
