Aotearoa, the early 80's. We meet an unsung hero of NZ Hip Hop DJ Teepee, who revolutionises the Wellington club scene, so much so, Stevie Wonder requests to see him when he’s in town. 1983 sees Uncut Funk & The Land of the Good Groove hit the airwaves and new hip hop crews begin to spring up across the country... Plus which Hollywood superstar started out running underage clubs on Symonds Street?
