Dunedin sound

I'm of course talking about Dunedin, a town that holds a special place in my heart as I studied there and lived there for 10 years.

Dunedin is a location that is internationally renowned for the Dunedin sound.

The city is still a powerhouse and a melting pot that has an incredible scene that produces a brilliant array of artists.

And I'm not joking when I say that today's artist is one of the greatest acts to come from Dunedin ever.

This is Jesse Hanan from Ivy on Almost Radio.

Dunedin, New Zealand has a deep and coveted history of musical prowess.

From the early 80s, where the Dunedin sound erupted from the area, it is a mystical melting pot where there has always been something in the water that leads to creatives writing and producing iconic albums.

Like anywhere, these phenomena come in waves, and I believe that we are currently witnessing one of the greatest groups in the area on their rise to becoming an international household name.

So like I said, Alex from Hysteria was part of the Otipoti music compilation, which brought together... wahine and gender diverse bands on a compilation, which is so amazing, but also does Syrup Boys, so incredible live recordings, videos of local bands.

It's also got Fraser Thompson from Dunedin Sound who Anyone who knows gigs in Dunedin knows that Fraser takes the most amazing photographs.

And Sean Norling from Aratoi, who recently put together a vinyl compilation.

So you'll be discussing with them, I guess, the things that they do in collecting and curating these incredible music in Otipoti.

So you can find information for that online.

And one of the other events that we've got as part of the symposium is Which is actually the only event, the only daytime event that's not being held at Te Korakoro o Te Tui.

It's going to be a really interesting event featuring members of a band Luther that were big in the Dunedin scene before the whole Dunedin sound era.

So this is looking sort of late 60s, early 70s.
