Channel Z goes 100% Kiwi
From Waitangi Day Channel Z will be going live as Kiwi Fm, and broadcasting all Kiwi music. I think it's a fantastic idea. The more New Zealand music that gets airplay the better it is for independent artists. Add some legal dowload sites like amplifier or TMet, and Kiwi artists can be selling globally. There is huge interest in New Zealand right now from overseas. Just imagine if A&R people can start listening to Aotearoan Artists on a 100% Kiwi webstream.

I'm already a huge fan of Channel Z, as they were the first radio station to play The Evil Plans of George W Bush IIIrd way back in 2002. It was the support from Bomber and Clarke Gayford (now of C4), and the listeners who kept ringing up to request Evil Plans that inspired us to go online with TMet Recordings.
