Too for the same mana. Gaturist and audio recordist on the day.
Filmed on Ōwairaka / Mount Albert — a maunga named after a fearless wāhine who stepped up when others stood still — this episode holds that same spirit.
CRYSTAL’s sound is haunting, bold, and full of heart.
Her presence: soft and strong, all at once.
She carries the essence of a new generation unafraid to speak their truth — or simply speak on the beauty of everyday life.
As her voice echoes across the slopes of Ōwairaka, we’re reminded: the stories we tell, and the whenua we stand on, shape who we are.
This is where it all began.
I’ve been a member of @apraamcosnz for 15 years or something. Somehow in that timespan I became something of a MD/playback/live show guy and I feel very fortunate to receive one of this years development grants to continue that work and share what I’ve learned along the way! Stand by for some special 2025 evenings… lord knows I’ve got some firefighting stories
