HIT IT AND QUIT IT- Nov. 29, 2010: THE FOOD SPECIAL

Its the all food special, all songs you can eat!

Many thanks to our friend, foodie and music afficiando Bharat Jamnadas for coming up and cooking an immense bounty of BBQ for us. Also special thanks due to young-blood producer Sam Harman for the extra (chicken) legwork that went into putting this together behind the scenes.



Speaking of behind the scenes, you might not pick this up from our on-air cool collectedness but we had a major medical emergency half way through the show (HIQI regular Lil Nug almost lost his complete toe nail in a freak accident...) so thanks due as well to our BBQ peeps for the extra medical help (Chef D, Killamanraro and C De Witt!) plus Mr. Booker for stepping up for the second half of the show. And propers for not losing y'alls appetite after that one!

Now on with the slow-cooker...

RIP OF THE WEEK: Natural Four - Try Love Again

As promised another rip of the week with the quickness. Again the ROTW has been a feature which has matriculated as of recently, but no longer! From here on out it's shows on Tuesday and Rip on Friday so mark your calenders accordingly.

This one right here is a beautiful northern soul number on Curtis Mayfield's own Curtom label, but without anything to do with Curtis himself. The song is written by a member of The Impressions, however, in Leroy Hutson.

It's about picking yourself up and dusting yourself off. Beautiful arrangement, harmonies and lyrics are the order here, rounded off nicely with a delicate Rhodes refrain. Sure to kick your weekend off on the right foot. Ripped off the B of my very own 7" and delivered here in full 320 style.

Keep steppin'!
Natural Four - Try Love Again (320kpbs)

HIT IT & QUIT IT - November 22nd, 2010

It's starting to get nice in Auckland on Monday evenings, as a result we were feeling a bit more inclined towards starting the show on a warm weather front (excuse the pun). Maybe it's a trend that will continue as New Zealand slides its way toward a long hot summer. My song pick from the show is the rough Kon edit that Recloose perhaps shouldn't have played. Tip!

This week we also featured a hot mix from a big fan of the show from Zurich, Switzerland. Largesse to the man Eugen Danzinger aka Spit. This was a freaky mix but we were feeling it a lot, plenty of homemade blips and bloops throughout.

Next week??? THE FOOD SPECIAL, DON'T SNOOZE!

HIT IT & QUIT IT- November 15th, 2010

Well, it seems as though posting Hit It & Quit It shows is like waiting for a bus: You wait, wait and wait some more, then a convoy of them roll up all at once. So, with the quickness we give you, hot off the press.... The latest installment of HIT IT & QUIT IT!

"But how can you guys post it so quickly?"

I hear you asking in the land of the interweb: We simply wheel in our own recording unit (VERY similar to the one pictured above), and hence cut out the middle man (who shall remain nameless!), and VOILA! Instant radio heat direct to your computing machine.

Anyway, enough of all this hi-tech talk. What did we do on the show this week? Well, it was a wide and varied show as always, featuring new music from the likes of Marco Bernardi, a hot remix of Scuba by Falty DL (he seems to be featuring every week at the moment! Props!), Opolopo, and some re-spins for current favorites like Space Dimension Controller (seriously loving this!), Franc Spengler, and of course, future Hit It & Quit It guest of honour, Kenny Dixon Jnr aka Moodymann!

On with the show, we hope you enjoy it. HIT IT!

Bout. Time. Radio hiccups suck but we've just drank a collective glass of water and remedied the situation. Yeah you've heard that before but if you want something done do it yourself. So we good...
