Reel Love, The Film Soundtrack Show. Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Tarantino is a show with a really long title. It also is a show which is about film scores whether filled with pop or classical. Each week we'll be hearing some silver screen brilliance from a different theme to set you up for the week ahead. So get your popcorn, get your drink and settle down for the reel start to your week.
Unlike Beyoncé, we make our own content. Join us as we exercise our contractual right to a maximum of 2 Beyoncé songs in an hour, plus as may features as we can find.
Join James, Jon and Harry as they scour the internet for really really really obscure music in the hunt for a new absolute banger.
It's showtime! Join me on a musical journey to the West End, Broadway and beyond. From old favourites to modern masterpieces, there really is something for everyone! So dust off your jazz shoes, warm up your voice and get ready to dance and sing along to some of the best songs from the stage and screen.
Today's world is so dense, ever-changing, and fast: the amount of notifications we get to our phones every day is overwhelming, but what really matters? Tune in for current affairs chat, space for reflection on the salient news, and some music to break up the mundanity of it all!
Come listen to this American chat about life, love, heartbreaks, travel (or anything, really) with her friends. Sweet tunes included.
Did we really agree to an 8am show? Join Joseph and Caitlin as they do their best impersonations of competent breakfast show radio hosts.
We break the schedule layout to bring you one last show from former programme controller Eiron Page, and pass the baton by way of radio to the new programme controller - Naomi - and also play some music, ostensibly chosen by you. The PM show Eiron always meant to do, but never did; because leaving things to the last minute is how he do.
*** The only show on URY to double as a bug report!™
(Pronounced "directory Bandcamp") D:\Bandcamp>dir is a show all about the weird and wonderful world of self-releasing musicians and tiny bedroom labels found on Bandcamp. Join Night Call and 8-Bit and Beyond host Bernie, as he sticks his arm into the petri dish known as online music culture. Everything from vaporwave, to future funk, to trip hop, to doom jazz, to whatever you can think of really.
Yeah, it's one of those times I happen to be about so we're going to play some music. Really don't know what - so tune in and find out! Maybe it'll be something you like.
Matt Windsor should really be writing up his thesis. Instead, he's doing yet another URY radio show, focusing on music older than him sandwiched between awkward observations about life as a washed-up postgraduate. Oh dear.
"What name is given to the genre of dance music that was developed in the UK in the early 1990s out of the rave scene and reggae sound system culture associated with acts such as 'A Guy Called Gerald' and 'Goldie'?
Drum and bass?
We can't accept drum and bass, we need Jungle I'm afraid." -University Challenge (2024)
On this show I ask Charlie Bradbury, rainforest expert, how massive the jungle really is and what's so cool about it?
We do what we like.
Can't sleep? Feel the need to listen to some really odd music in the early hours of the morning? This is the show for you. Join me as I play an eclectic mix of underground music, ranging from brass house , to expermental hip-hop, to math rock and North African electronic jazz funk stuff. It will be eye opening. If you need someone to talk to and you don't want to ask one of your flatmates how to use a tin opener, I've got that covered too. Jim. x
An environmental pesemist providing commentary on everything wrong with our beloved planet, trying to inform the masses of just how much trouble humanity is really in, through bite-sized episodes for when you've got five minutes to fill with existential dread.
Tom Morello once said that ‘every successful, progressive, radical or revolutionary movement that has ever been seen has had a great soundtrack’. We bring you these soundtracks. Each week we have a different theme and movement, playing the songs that have provided impetus for change and given people a voice.
In December I happen to think there's far too much mention of the C word (I'm sure you can work out what word I'm on about). To give myself some respite, let's all enjoy some time where one mentions that word whatsoever (or anything related to it!) and instead we get to listen to some great music. So, for a smashing scrooge symposium: tune in!
...if you really can't work it out maybe I'll give you a hint: sometimes it's also an X word
...can you really not work it out???
...fine, I'll tell you!
It's _________
We watch too much telly. In fact, we watch far too much music telly (MTV if you will, RIP). But how much attention do we really pay to the bangers we've hunted? Each week, Charles and Garry bring along 3 tunes from the (other type of) airwaves and quiz each other about what they've just listened to. What a bonkers idea.
Just a few Indie tunes and a bit of a chat, really.
