Tina Mairi

Up on the 12th episode of the High Frequency podcast is Tina Mairi.

In a few short years Tina Mairi has progressed from her personal project of mixing two songs every day for 100 days in a row to emerge as a passionate and highly regarded wahine of Auckland underground house and techno.

Versatile, intuitive and a keen dancer herself, Tina applies her affinity for harmony and rhythm to each individual dance floor with the intention of transmitting a pure, joyful and transformative experience.

In the episode we chat about preparation for gigs, dealing with pre-show nerves and the current lack of turnout at high profile events across NZ.

Tina's favourite track in the mix she did for the podcast is by Baaz and is titled; 'Glim'. It comes in at 28min (the podcast also opens with another Baaz track 555.11). Tina mentioned that this artist has inspired her a lot and plays his music in most of her sets.

Another favourite is Nico by Dudley Strangeways which comes in at 52min 30 (and another one called Bozo comes in earlier at 32 min 30).
