Kia ora fam, we're so honored to support Sweat with Pride this year.

We were asked by a participant to put a playlist together to inspire them to exercise for 21 minutes a day.

This is what we came up with... a week's worth! It's designed to be listened to in 21 (or so) minute sessions - one a day for seven days. There's the dance set, the jump set, the completely random set, um ... or just mix it up.

Plus, you can add to it, change it, whatever.

Hey, let's honour that Treaty soon ay. Plus is Don McGlashan the people's hero?

Answer: Y. E. S. SSSSS 🖤🤍❤️💪🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Commercialism aside, Valentine's Day is a day to celebrate love in all its forms.

We'll have a chat about our reflections of Waitangi Day 2025 and play some tunes.

Find out about the annual Village Vinyl Fair & Dance coming up on Saturday 15th Feb and the very special addition of Beats and Bingo with Mistress Viv.
