Well, I sure have been remiss with my radio show this year but life happens and I hope to get back into a more regular swing of things.......
This show is about 'Human-Computer Interactions' and the beauty & destruction that can ensue.
The majority of the music in this episode is music I've had in my collection for a long time but not much of it has featured in my Radio shows to date so it's been nice to rediscover some forgotten gems.
Oh and did I mention it's almost all Techno.
Groove Line Records and Big Break Records' label boss Wayne Dickson takes us on a journey through classic soul, funk, jazz and disco from the sixties to the present. He'll be highlighting the current reissues on the market, and bringing us interviews with some of the soul greats he's worked with Wayne will be with us 11pm to 1am to close out the evening every other Thursday.

El Rancho is in the studio fro 4pm today with the usual hash bash of musical delights we've been listening to lately. This show is a slow cooked selection including re-released private press obscurities, new jammers and recently discovered (in NYC artists) and a RIP to Malcolm John Rebennack Jr, otherwise known as Mac Rebennack, best known as Dr John.

From spending time in the Talking Heads to recording Buddist chants with Allen Ginsberg, no career in music is more unique.
