Mezza ( me )  and my favorite old headphones.

Montana-Star / Dj Monstar

This is Montana-Star / Dj Monstar,  She is the other half of our outfit of Melonpop Drive.  Broadcast each Friday afternoon from 2bbb at 4.00pm.  It is a 2 hour show full to the brim of great new music and a huge smattering of Australian Hip Hop.

Dj Mezza

This is me....  I often cry!  I have been known to shake in my voice describing how a song can make me feel on air and so I am clear about this ... I Feel Big!  So I am pictured here crying in the dark.  I am an emotional person and so This is me crying.  I cry for myself and for others.  I cry for the world we live in and the children of the world who are dying because of greed and war.  I have a radio show with my daughter on Friday Afternoons at Radio 2bbb Bellingen.  Listen in sometime.  We have a lot of fun each week.  The show is called Melonpop Drive and so we play drive time music.  Tune in sometime and you can do that by clicking the photo and going to the live streaming 2bbb page.  Happy Listening folks and I am really glad to have you on board with us.

 Malachi Corcoran...AKA Malachi MC  integral part of MNC - Mid North Collaboration.  This is a name that is finally getting some really good feedback and some real money making gigs to boot.  Mal and Chut have been working very hard and have released some real quality stuff over the last year.  Proof hard work pays off in the end.  Mal has become a father as well so this should only add more depth to his music and a new determination to succeed.  I get very excited hearing anything these guys do.  I will be seeing them again soon at a gig.  I will blog this when it happens.

Dj Thortz

This is Brad / Dj Thortz.. He is young and still at school presently however he is and accomplished Dj and has teamed up with Ran MC as his Dj and they are doing a fair bit around the local area and recording demos.  Brad is exciting so it I think we will see much more from him in the future. Hope he comes and tells us on air what he does.  This would be a good thing.

Ran MC

Ran MC... he and Dj Thortz have some stuff happening together.  Ran has cut his teeth on the microphones of 2bbb.  His mother was a Radio Programmer and so he spent a lot of time hanging around the studios and doing and playing with things he probably wasn't supposed to however this has paid off for him as he has devoted his time to writing recording and performing his own style of Aussie hip hop.  Ran Style..  Catch him at gigs around the north coast of N.S.W.  Presently he is based in Sawtell.

Our first interview was with Nj Edwards a Sydney Rapper.  He is about to release his album "Like food for the Soul".  I have been to see Nj since and met him in  person.  He didn't really think it was that great that we made the journey to see him.  If only he knew how hard it is to leave home.  I am getting better though.  I found Nj on Facebook and researched him after I listened to his music.  He is what he is and I like this.  He is fairly well motivated to do a brilliant job and he is extremely thorough with his recording and writing and his sales etc.   He is also gracious and well mannered.

Then it was Mind over Matter...  The Aussie Hip hop band that is getting better and better all the time.  Willow and Smiles.

mind over matter

I have seen them a couple of times now.  I am also on a promise of a drink from Smiles when we actually are in a venue where we can actually speak to each other like humans.  M O M were in Coff's Harbour a couple of weeks back I missed them this time. Next time though.

Swamp Rock or just swamp. . . . 

8 Ball Aitken

That is how 8 Ball Aitken described himself and his music.  What a wonderful 2bbb interview for the drive show.  Both 8 Ball and Bird Jensen in my studio.  The interview went fabulously as well.  I was most pleased.  Proof there are times and there are times.  I enjoyed photographing these guys as they were both so beautiful colorful in their appearance.  This matched their wonderful happy personalities and their great musical sound.

The Cheyne Murphy Trio  from Byron.

I will have to go back to my notes to remember the details of this one (Cheyn Murphy Band).  He was hooking up with some local talent to play a gig at the Federal Hotel Bellingen and he came on my show rather impromptu.  He loved us though.  I hope so. He said he did...

Recently we had the pleasure of having Matt Montez on our show doing some of his work live  and talking about his music and generally promoting his awesomeness.

What a delight of a human being and thank you for the copies of the disc ep  EN ROUTE for myself and one for 2bbb.

Friday .. my second favorite F Word

 See You on the Drive on Melonpop Drive.

Greens Party Candidate .. not Member.. although I thought you had to be a member to be a candidate you see.

Carol Vernon was a most welcome guest on our show on International Womans Day Celebrations in 2015. Carol is such a hard working woman it is hard to go past her as a high quality guest to interview. I loved having her in the chair opposite.
