Malty Media are a duo featuring Aquaboogie (Stuart McDonald) and Jet Jaguar (Michael Upton). They have released three EPs and they even had a regular show on Radio Active in Wellington. Their debut EP 'Bracken Bed' was an idea of bringing samples of their childhood memories into the songs they were creating. Bits from old TV shows and ads was the idea. They succeeded quite well, I think... especially on the title track which takes a Kiwi institution into the 21st century. They bravely take on the theme of 'Country Calendar'... a NZ television show that has been on air for more than 40 years. The original theme song is "Hillbilly Child" by the Alan Moorhouse Band... I bet you didn't know that?
