Mongo Skato has been played on NTS in shows including TTB, featured first on 15 August 2014. Songs played include Fela.

Mongo Skato is Thomas E Richards, an electronic music producer from Wellington, New Zealand. He has released his debut EP on 1080p. Influenced by recently discovered dirt cheap 90s house and techno records and touching base on the deliberately uncharismatic and well-humoured early DIY of 00s Dunedin/Auckland, this debut sees him plunging deep into 8 luxuriously deranged hybrid tunes.
