It's NZ Music Month

NZ music is pretty good right now. Gone are the days when you hear a song on the radio and think 'oh dear god that must be a kiwi song, change the station', now it's the time that when you hear a kiwi song on the radio you think 'crank it up that is awesome'. There are so much good music being made by us kiwis and it is fantastic.

A good example of how much better the music is now is that you find out the artist is kiwi when you google them or hear the DJ's say it or see the NZ on Air logo on their video clip. When I first heard Dane Rumble I assumed he was an overseas artist (as did many of my workmates) cos of how good he was, we were pleasently surprised to find out he was a Kiwi. Same goes for Gin, Kids of 88, Dukes and many more.

So go and enjoy some Kiwi music this month, it is something we should be, and are, very proud of.
